What the heck is wrong with these people...? First someone posts a wacko website that they see vision her as being dead and now Elizabeth is a celebrity because her case stands out more than other cases? (I glad the website link post is gone and I hope the poster was banned)

Just wondering why some children only get on milk cartons and some get national TV coverage, that's all.

Along this same line, it is ghoulish and disrespectful beyond words that threads are created over horrifying events such as these, (in the name of reporting the news) that turn into nothing more than chat threads, while real people are suffering excruciating pain, as 1000 posts are mindlessly made, just passing the time. Current events always create a lot of talk, but there's something almost sacrilegious about seeing hundreds of monotonous chatter at a time like this.
