WOW!!! i dont care if my sister is doing drugs or what ever i still want to talk to her and if she was missing as long as some of the women on this list i think i would have at least said something i know that most of them were in to things that were drug related but that dosent mean that they were not loved by someone i think that the 48hr that you have to wait is to long so i dont know why there love ones didnt do anything or at least look for them or something i feel sorry for them but i feel more sorry for the family's becuse they didnt look and have to live with that in there heart.

hlf, I feel the same way. How can family members NOT report their loved ones missing? Was their failure to do so indicative that their loved ones regularly disappeared for weeks at a time?
Also, there's such casual acceptance that their loved ones were drug addicts -- as if that's the way everyone copes.
And why does everyone seem to sit around and wait for everyone else to do something? It's as though they've abdicated responsibility for their own family's lives.

If you've ever had family members who've disappeared for lengths of time while on crack binges, then you would understand why the families did not report their disappearances. It's like the boy who cried wolf. At what point do you realize something is really wrong? The frustration that is felt by the families of these types of drug users, runs deep. They can't be blamed for what happened. For some of these women, their risky lifestyle choices just caught up with them and got them trapped. It's not the fault of the families.

Probably if the person was reported missing the checks would stop coming to support these habits and risky lifestyles, what a horrible vicious cycle and there must be another way to stop this from repeating, what is sad is thinking the parental unit that permitted this behavior when these dead women were starting families are raising another generation - who may already be squirting out yet another based on the careless family values they have known and accepted.
