Stop it.

I have a bad habit of keeping track of this facebook haters page. It's helpful about once or so a month, when one of @@@'s stalkers posts something worth copying and sending to the PD. Usually that entails them admitting to following his car, trespassing on family (or other folks') property, harassing him at work, hacking his or his missing fiancee's facebook page and publicly posting his or her emails, private messages and friend lists, harassing their friends, trespassing on their property.... nothing that would actually affect chances of finding K. Last night was different. Someone hacked into @@@'s facebook page again and changed it to a public account, then started mining photos. They published the one above, and a lively thread ensued over how she must be buried where these shoes are, the photo looks evil, etc. Then about 20 posts in someone posts the following:  

"This picture has been bothering me since it was posted. Way back in the winter, December I think, a group of 12 or so of us searched ¶¶¶ Trails. We found a pair of pink and white shoes, they actually were a youth size that would fit a woman that wore a size 5 1/2 or so. They were pink and white, but they did not have aqua laces if I remember correctly. We found them by the edge of the water, and I believe ***  may have took them with her in her back pack just in case they were K's""

Response from another poster: "Someone took something that might or might not be evidence in a crime and put it into your backpack ? You've got to be kidding me. What happened to the shoes, where did they go ? Did anyone follow up on this ? Joke right ?"

Original poster, "No, not a joke, they were YOUTH size which someone with small feet, size 5-5.5, could possibly wear, but we didn't think it was very likely. If we picked up every possible shoe we found in the past 8 months we could fill a dump truck with them. And calling police every time we find a smallish womans shoe would be ridiculous. I think that *** possibly took these shoes with her that day, but I don't know what happened to them. It was said at the time that she was going to turn them in to police. I have sent pics to ### many times of shoes that I find while searching asking if they could be K's. I don't know if it was the pair of shoes that K has on in this pic, but I do remember that they were pink and white, and I certainly do not remember bright color laces."


The woman whose name is represented by *** above was trained as a searcher by TES (Texas Equusearch)when they came to help us find K in September. She was photographed performing proper searches at that time, so I know she had experience. So I ask myself, why would she take what she believed could be evidence of murder from what she believed could be a crime scene and throw it away? And why did this large group of searchers allow this to happen?
