A more detailed picture emerges in the Nolan case
One seriously has to wonder why discussing one’s past and trying to possibly tarnish a missing person past has anything to do with finding them. If a person is troubled or has gone through traumatic experiences, is that supposed to make them any less worthy to be found? Kelly Nolan is missing PERIOD!!! She needs to be found.

Linoshka Torres and Luis Campos have been missing since Saturday, January 6, 2007. They have not been seen since they picked up their vehicle at the home of a mechanic. Investigators believe that the couples disappearance is a result of a kidnapping. Linoshka Torres is pregnant and due to have her baby in April.
Linoshka Torres, 18, and Luis Campos, 20, drove another car to a house near Kiest Boulevard and Polk Street on Saturday afternoon, police said. The mechanic wasn’t home, so the couple waited in his driveway. Within a few hours, Ms. Torres and Mr. Campos had vanished, and the car they were driving was left behind.
Ms. Torres’ sister Michelle Torres said the keys were left in the ignition and the couple’s cellphones were still inside. Family members said that the couple recently moved in together and that Ms. Torres is about six months pregnant. Police had found no indication of foul play and were unsure what happened to the couple. (Dallas Morning News)
Police search for missing Duncanville couple
“It’s very unlike her, very unlike her,” said Michelle Torres, Linoshka’s sister. “She would call us every day.”
Torres, who the family said is anemic, is expecting a baby girl in just a few months and has had a complicated pregnancy.
“That’s the main concern we have right now with her, because she’s a little tiny girl,” said Rachell Torres, Linoshka’s other sister. “She only weighs, even pregnant, about 105 pounds.”
When the two vanished, they left behind their cell phones, car keys and other belongings.
“I actually believe someone took them,” Michelle Torres said. “I don’t know what’s the reason or anything. I think someone has them against their will or something.” (WFAA)

Karen Jo Smith disappeared on December 27, 2000 and has never been seen again. Karen 
Jo Smith is listed with The National Center of Missing Adults. For those not familiar with the circumstances of this case. Karen Joe Smith was last seen with her ex-husband, Steve Halcomb. Halcomb was convicted and sentenced to 95 years in prison even though Karen’s body was never recovered.
Karen was last seen with her ex-husband, Steve Halcomb (shown in the photo at the right), at her residence around the 800 block of Weghorst Street at approximately 10:30 pm on December 27, 2000. In December 2004, Halcomb was convicted of Smith’s murder and sentenced to 95 years in prison. Smith’s body has never been recovered. (IndyGov.org)
Recently Karen Jo Smith’s missing persons case was part of several families who hoped to have these unsolved cases aided through new rewards. $20 million dollars was being offered as rewards for 20 missing persons cases, $100,000 for each. Karen Joe Smith’s case was one that will be receiving the reward. The reward is good from Sunday, November 4 through November 24.
Last month, Patti Bishop, stepmother of Karen Jo Smith, who disappeared in Indianapolis on Dec. 27, 2000, contacted Mammana about her vision for a “Squeaky Wheel Tour” to draw attention to missing persons cases.
Mammana liked the idea and agreed to fund rewards to try to draw out information. In short order, he and Bishop devised a plan to offer $2 million for 20 cases for 20 days — Sunday through Nov. 24 — with $100,000 dedicated to each case. (Indy Star)
Thanks to Bishop’s involvement and her knowledge of Indiana cases, the state is heavily represented on the list. The other 13 cases are from Missouri, Wisconsin, Nebraska, Alabama and Arkansas.

Hans Reiser is being held without bond as even with no body, police have enough circumstantial evidence to keep him locked up. Amazing that murder crimes make strange bed fellows as one of Reiser’s attorneys is Daniel Horowitz. Howrowitz’s own wife was murdered last year.
Reiser, 42, is being held without bail in the Santa Rita jail in California pending a hearing on November 28, when he is supposed to enter a plea. His lawyers, who now include Daniel Horowitz, whose own wife was murdered last year in a highly publicized case, said they delayed entering a plea so they could review the evidence against him.
The cops don’t have a body, only circumstantial evidence, but enough to lock Reiser up. According to a police statement, “We interviewed a host of individuals. All avenues led back to Mr. Reiser being responsible for the death and disappearance of Ms. Nina Reiser.” (Open Source Magazine)
The reward for information leading to the location of the missing Nina Reiser has increased from $15,000 to $25,000.

It is no surprise that law enforcement probably considered Melinda Duckett a suspect from
the out set of the disappearance of Trenton Duckett. Melinda would have been the last one to have put Trenton to bed and the first one to have noticed he was missing. The disappearance also took place under Melinda’s roof. However, now we are learning some more details to the original searches performed by the police upon gaining the initial search warrants.
Police asked to search her apartment on Aug. 27 — the night she reported Trenton missing. Investigators went to court to get a search warrant, and they searched her home early Monday morning.
“There were two search warrants served. One on the original night of the disappearance, or I guess that would actually be the following morning, early in the morning hours, and that was as the case wore on and it became apparent after interviewing the parents that the child had indeed disappeared,” said Capt. Steve Rockefeller of the Leesburg Police Department.
Upon searching the home the police found some interesting items:
Law enforcement officials told the WESH 2 I-Team that police found freshly painted walls in some places, and in the back, trash that was allegedly thrown out by Duckett was filled with Trenton’s toys.
But what grabbed investigators’ attention were the pictures, officials said. They said a lot of pictures of Trenton, including the sonogram printout from when Duckett was pregnant, were all thrown away in the trash.
Learning such details it becomes all that much more tragic that Melinda Duckett committed suicide. Authorities being able to question her in whatever manner might have shed some light on all of this as to “Where is Trenton Duckett”? Authorities have been searching at Ocalla National Forest and have turned up the following so far.
1. This past Sunday, divers in Farles Lake in the Ocala National Forest found a white garbage bag.
On the bag, investigators discovered a substance that some believed was blood and holes that appeared to be from alligator bites. The bag was sent to a Florida Department of Law Enforcement lab in Jacksonville for analysis, and forensic tests showed that the substance on that bag is not blood.
2. Law enforcement officials also said divers found a large piece of asphalt about 10 feet away from the bag. The lake is in a remote woodland where there are no paved roads.
3. The search in the Ocala National Forest has also turned up what could be a child’s shoe. Forensics experts are examining the shoe. (WESH)
The family is trying to work out the details to offer a $5000.00 reward.
The Eubanks’ church fund is in addition to the reward offered by Crimeline. In order to get that reward, tipsters need to call 800-423-TIPS. Police are also urging anyone with information to call the main investigative number at 800-CALL-FBI.

Five year old Destiny Norton is still missing. Police and search teams have been looking for Destiny Norton since last Sunday. VIDEO
70 of his officers are assigned to the Destiny Norton Case with more coming from surrounding agencies as well as the FBI. 250 people have been interviewed in detail. 260 tips have come in from the 799-INFO line as well as the police department’s website. 70% of those tips have been cleared — in other words, they were dead ends.
The reward for information to the return of Destiny Norton has been doubled from its original $15,000.00.
The Mayor announced that the reward for information leading to Destiny’s whereabouts is doubling. The FBI is now pledging $15,000. That will be added to what’s already been donated by Meadow Gold and the Sund Foundation, making the total cash reward $30,000. (ABC 4)
National Media Doesn’t Show Up for Destiny Norton Story
The search for Destiny Norton has generated plenty of local coverage on TV, radio, in the newspapers and on the internet.
One of the few MSM types that have at least referenced Destiny Norton’s disappearance was staunch victims rights advocate Nancy Grace, thank you. VIDEO
It is true that we have not seen any news in the Main Stream Drive by media either on the case of the disappearance of Destiny Norton. That is rather unfortunate. Upon writing this post we are sending a plea to several producers in the MSM in hopes that they will cover this story. In my opinion it has all the aspects of what they normally do cover. Sometimes they just need a nudge.
A five-year-old girl disappears without a trace, and a community searches. Among the apparent mysteries is why, so far, the national media have stayed away. Jeannie Hill/ Friend, Search Coordinator: “It is a little frustrating, especially since the fact that we haven’t found her yet. It should have national attention. It should.” The kidnapping of Elizabeth Smart drew blanket coverage in 2002, though in that case her younger sister actually witnessed a man taking the girl. The national media showed up two years later when Lori Hacking disappeared and her husband Mark became a prime suspect. Lori’s father says he’s surprised they’re not back now. (KLS)
