One thing that should be considered is in the case of a missing child the most important
thing is to have as many people as possible looking for them. That's what the Amber Alert does.The grandparents really pushed the exposure to gain awareness in hopes someone would find the child. They did this by going to the news outlets. They were on larry King just last night. While most missing cases just get caught up in the system a few get national attention because of people like the grandparents.

Once the pleas have been put out there the story gains interest and today we may now have a definitive answer to what everyone has been wanting to know.
