Still Missing

So little Sharlinie is still missing...and it's coming to nearly a month since her abduction. We are no closer to finding her, and despite the efforts of the authorities there has been no headway. My heart goes out to their parents: they've supernatural assurances (amazing how they still believe in such things, but I guess in desperation one would grasp at straws) - already the one week has come and gone without her being found; the ludicrous house-to-house search which was only undertaken about two weeks after she had gone missing - hello, the abductors would have ample time to 'dispose' of her!! And even now the police are expanding their search!

While hope is still there, I feel the family must prepare for the worst - but there's no closure until she is ultimately found: dead or alive. Meantime we still keep looking, but is there any light at the end of the tunnel?
