Tim Miller gave a very moving presentation, and met many new friends. After his presentation, Tim noted that Jennifer Schuett and Detective Tim Cromie from the Dickinson Police Department were going to present her story. Afterwards, he met Jennifer and they posed for a picture together (above). He was so moved by her presentation and honored to meet her. Please go to her website at www.justiceforjennifer.com to read about this amazing young woman’s fight for her life and justice for herself and other victims of violent crimes.  Be sure to read her statements at http://www.justiceforjennifer.com/statements.htm.  It took many years for her attacker to be caught, but the Dickinson Police Department and the FBI never gave up. We are proud to have Jennifer as one of our new members of Texas EquuSearch, and look forward to working with her.

First of all, we have the most valuable members/volunteers of any organization in existence. Occasionally, we have had to do things which are not the “normal” for a search organization. Case in point, Misty Cummings – I made the decision to help Misty get away from a very volatile situation. She was in danger for her life, and I felt that if something happened to Misty, we would lose any chance of finding Haleigh. That is ALL this was about. So, I enlisted the help of one of our volunteers who had befriended Misty during our time in Satsuma, Donna Brock. Donna did a wonderful job in keeping Misty safe and, until the “road rage” incident, was doing so under the radar. This was not about media attention. Again, as I have said many times, I will use whatever resources that are at my disposal to find Haleigh.

At the time of this posting, I am on my way to another search. Before I go, I am on my way to deposit a small check I received from a construction job I did, into the Texas EquuSearch account so that we can help another family. (See copy below.)

Moffitt Check

We were able to help bring closure to another family yesterday with the help of some hard working Texas EquuSearch members, along with the help of the local community who so willingly helped us because of the work we have done and continue to do.

I would invite any person who sits, wearing a suit on television, to come and put your jeans and boots on and join us on a real search. I wonder who our “so-called experts” are.

I would like to quote Abraham Lincoln:

If I tried to read, much less answer all the criticisms made of me, and all the attacks leveled against me, this office would have to be closed for all other business. I do the very best I know how, the very best I know how, the very best I can, I mean to keep on doing this down to the very end.

A. Lincoln
