This was just posted on Kerra's RIP facebook:
MISSINGKerra M. Wilson
Members of the press: You are NOT welcome to be there when the bears are dropped off. We are sorry, but this is a tough time for the entire community. If you should arrive, you will be asked to leave. We are sorry, but our children are the most important thing in this situation. I repeat, PRESS is NOT welcome to protect our children.

Not everyone in there feels that way about the press, thank goodness. I can understand not wanting an onslaught of media, every moment of everyday, for everyone and everything involved. However....... this a community effort for Kerra's family, loved ones and friends. IMO, folks might be interested in seeing the love from the community.
There sure are tons of families across the USA who would give anything to get even ONE mention from the mainstream media regarding their missing/murdered loved one. The folks putting this RIP Kerra facebook up, ought to rethink their position re the media, IMO. The press seems to be treating this case very nicely, and there will come a day when they move on to whatever else is happening, and news about Kerra's case will likely join the many many others who never get a word mentioned. Sigh.
