So you know this family personally?

I know Mark personally. I have not met Christopher.

How about supplying some additional information about the situation. There's so little actual information in that email.

The problem is that the facts of the case are confidential. There is much that I am not at liberty to divulge.

Ok. This sends up a red flag for me. Sure, the government may not be allowed to give out confidential info, but that doesn't mean the family, or you with their permission, couldn't give out whatever information that they wanted that would lend support to their case.

OK, then.

The problem is that you posted this w/o providing all the facts. You must be a journalist.
