yes it is awesome, and yes, according to what I remember of the case (you have to remember, 20 years ago, I was in high school and much more preoccupied with other things), it did take police several days to "get out of low gear", as they were still working under the "until they are gone 24 hours, we don't consider them missing" edict, which, in the wake of the Adam Walsh case, was forever banished-

we have had children wander off in NW FL before, and, in one case, from the first call to 911 until everything our sheriff's office had was mobilized was about 20 minutes- horses, cars, foot search, helicopters, you name it...

the child, who was eight, wandered out of neighbor's garage, said he had been in the attic over the garage, looking at "magazines" with his friend, also eight, and couldn't understand what the fuss was all about, and why his mom wouldn't stop hugging him, until our sheriff, who, BTW, stands 6'9", showed up... and told him why all of this was happening! You better bet he didn't stray far from home after that!

Yeah, that is awesome! I'm telling you. JW said it took what..days to get the LE off its behind?

That is usually the case. Why then did it take the cops about, what..........20 minutes to declare the Van Dams innocent?
