    Haven't the parents been punished enough? They have lost their beautiful little girl. They know they shouldn't have left their children and must live with "what ifs" everyday. This is punishment enough.

    Madeleine will probably never be found, nor the person/s who took her, brought to justice.

    That's really fascinating stuff...obviously somebody coaxed him out of the bar through one of those odd exits. He may have ended up in the river, or perhaps went off with some strangers.

    Some "very strange folks" tried to get me and a friend to "come to their place" once when we were SEVERELY DRUNK in a bar...I went outside and my friend was getting in their car. So I jumped out into the street and demanded that my friend get out...I said, "You don't know who these freakin' people are!!"...and the women in the car said, "Don't get all radical on us now!"...she was really creepy. I think my friend wanted some cheap sex that night. There was also a couple of dudes in the car.

    I thought they could track these cell phone signals...if they can't then they need to start...and they also need to start inserting microchips in ALL HUMANS so we can check up on them if we need to...

    Details of Disappearance

    Shaffer was last seen at the Ugly Tuna Saloona, a bar near the Ohio State University (OSU) campus, between 1:30 and 2:00 a.m. on April 1, 2006. He had gone there to celebrate the beginning of spring break with several male friends. He has never been heard from again. Shaffer's car was found parked at his apartment, which is near the Ugly Tuna Saloona, after his disappearance. None of his personal belongings disappeared with him, and his credit cards and bank accounts have not been used since he went missing.

    Shaffer's loved ones describe his disappearance as highly unusual. He was a second-year medical student at OSU at the time of his disappearance, and made excellent grades. He and his girlfriend, another medical student, were planning to vacation in Miami, Florida for spring break and were scheduled to fly there on April 3, two days after his disappearance. Shaffer's mother died of cancer in March 2006 and he was upset about this, but his family and friends stated he was not inordinately depressed or suicidal. He was in love with his girlfriend at the time of his disappearance and reportedly planned to marry her.
    In May 2006, someone broke into Shaffer's apartment. It is unclear whether the burglary has anything do with his disappearance, however. Shaffer's father looked in the Olentangy River for his son's remains after his disappearance, but turned up no evidence.

    Authorities do not believe Shaffer left of his own accord, but it is unclear what caused his disappearance. He graduated Pickerington High School in 1997 and got a bachelor's degree in microbiology from OSU in 2003. Shaffer's case remains unsolved.

    l saw that psychic kids episode last night too. l wonder who the 'woman with dirty blonde hair who knows something more than she's saying' is.

    l would hate if the last place l was ever seen on earth was called 'the ugly tuna saloona.'

    I have been convinced from day 1 that the McCanns were guilty. They were great at manipulating the press so alot of people in the UK felt sorry for them. The only person who i feel sorry for is their little girl who was cruelly killed and not given a proper burial

    not to push buttons, but why does everyone talk like this kid is dead? i mean, the chances are higher that she was murdered, but i really want to be optimistic about this and hope that she was kidnapped and sold off. not that that situation is any better, there are things worse then death...

    it just makes me a little weary that she is talked about as if she was murdered when there is no proof of a murder. even the police in portugal repeatedly say that she was murdered.

    This reminds me of that case where the college student went missing and eventually they found him in a little building or shack that housed the electrical wiring for the college. Does anybody remember that one? He was right there on campus the whole time. Very sad. I hope they find this kid alive, but the odds are against it. Thanks for the information. I'm going to see what else I can find on the web about it.

    Yeah I found this one just so heartbreaking...this guy was not some thug...he was a sweet medical student and had a great future ahead of him...it was something to note as well that one of the kids said it was jelousy..I can see that....someone who just was getting more and more enraged with jelousy.....and then maybe their is some confrontation.....what I dont understand is okay they are in this bar....no one see anything?? No one see him talking to someone ?? Maybe a heated dicussion?? How abou the two girls ?? I know they said they interviewd them..but what did they talk about?? What mind set was he in that night??Was he pissed at someone..and if you watch the video from that night..he is talking to those girls an quickly turns away and seems to go back in the bar....why?? Did he say something to the girls?? Did he forget something?? Very odd....and I also wonder if maybe it could be someone who worked there..it be much easier to dispose of a body if he worked there......so much promise so sad.

    l can't speak for anyone else, but for me it's because l hope she's at peace.
    if this poor wee toddler is alive and being used as a sex slave somewhere, then that is just way too unbearable to think about, especially because no one seems to be looking for her anymore.
    was she stolen and given to a loving family? unlikely.

    it reminds me of when kristen french was taken. she was 15. everyone was wearing ribbons and looking for her, but talking about her if she was dead. l said at the time "l hope she is." she wasn't; she was being raped night and day for the next week.

    l hope some higher power is looking out for madeleine wherever she is.

    So if you are named a suspect in an investigation and then they decide you aren't a suspect, you can sue? This in itself makes me go HMMM... especially for the parents who already have money. IMO they are guilty... of child neglect and endangerment for leaving the kids alone.

    Any help on Missing Person

    For anyone reading thanks in advance for help or suggestions. I have been tracking a missing relative who has been missing for 23 years. The police not so much help....but I think that I have located my uncle in Las Vegas. He is a drug addict and in desperate need of medical attention from what I have recovered but I cant pinpoint his location in Las Vegas. If there is anyone on forum from Las Vegas who may be willing to put out posters for me (Im in CA) or has once been around the drug scene there, or anyone who has been a drug addict (Im not here to judge) and can give me some help on how to find him, like where his habits would take him and such, I would appreciate it so much...Thanks so much!

    Try calling the cops in Vegas and have them do welfare check on him. Give his name, if he's big into drug culture he's probably been arrested and the cops may know him.

    If you can find his social security number try pulling a credit report on him. Credit reports show a list of recent known addresses and inquiries. I used this method to find my sister after being MIA for over 8 years. GOOD LUCK!!!

    Thank you RoRo and onekindsistah for your thoughts...

    xenaswolf: Is that what I tell them is to do a welfare check? Because after I did some detective work and found him in Vegas I called immediatly only to be told he is an adult and can do what he wants....

    JMA776: Thanks for the idea. I have his SS unfortunatly he has never established any credit and moves a lot....I guess that goes with the life he is leading.

    Hmm well you might need an address for him in Vegas to get a welfare check done on him, but it's worth a try. They should do it for you but not sure.

    Most of the druggies hang out in old Las Vegas, because they throw them out of the new area where all the big casino are.
    The cops there do not care nor do they want to be bothered by what they call the riff raff. They just want them to go away. The only way you are going to get info on him is offer a reward for this info. That means hanging up posters and receiving 100's of phone calls. I live No Ca and go to Vegas often, you can do it in less than 7 hours depending where you live. Do you have a photo a recent photo of your uncle? His appearnce has to have changed if he is doing lots of drugs.
    One thing you can do is send a letter to the hospitals there with this info and ask if he is ever taken there for help that you be notified.
    You personally should not be going there and go in that area as the crime rate is very very high, if you can afford a PI that would probably help but be prepared to hand out money left and right for any kind of info from those people in that area.
    Most of them would sell out their mothers for the $$ for a fix.

    I do have a question for you what are you going to do with him if you find him? You may be opening a huge can of worms that you will regret. Better think this over a lot before you go further.

    Its strange because we go to Vegas at least 2x a year but just recently discovered he was there. I was going to try posters but the last picture taken of him was 25 yrs ago, so Im sure the drugs have altered him a lot. Basically I gave up on using a PI cause I ended up finding all the info they wanted to charge me $2000 to find. I have an address he was at, at some point in North Vegas, is this considered "Old"? Cause of course Ive never been farther than the strip. I guess I will just have to put my number and a reward out there, its just going to be hard with all the random calls and proving the correct ones though. Im sure your correct though, they would sell his info there in a minute.....

    NOrth LV is the old part. Too bad you cant get an 800 number for this because youre going to have a pack of people calling you collect.
    Ask them if they really know where is he to tell you HIS brothers name. Maybe then they will find out call you back and you know you have the right one.

    Where a missing woman was!

    Last week an mentally handicapped women who takes the bus by herself, all the time to her day facility never showed up and search parties were sent out. My dad is on one of them and searched all Friday night.

    On Saturday morning she showed up and didn't say where she was. This week, they announced she went to see a friend and camped out in her own yard or the few days everyone was looking for her.

    This cracks me up too no end. We think she was told not to do something she wanted to do, so she did it on her own and hid out under her own families noses. She is capable of taking care of a lot on her own. If they just had said yes, none of this would have happened. Why are some families so over protective and so quick to say no to everything that makes them uncomfortable.

    So this chick was in her own front yard "camping" out. And nobody bothered to look out the window to see if she was there at all. Did they just back out the drive way and not see a big tent there? I mean hello??? People scare me.

    Well it was the back yard at least. lol

    My dad's crew are trained to do this and went into the woods and parks, but her friends and family were looking also. Why didn't they look in the obvious places first?
