This morning on NBC Today Show where a young woman, Katherine answered an ad on Craigslist, had used this site for years and many positive results. Yet this one ad she answered to interview for a job, she never return home but they found her body a day later. She had been shot.
It was a 19 yr old that lived at the address she went to.
Like the family says, they have no negative feelings towards Craigslist, just make sure you be aware, not everyone is bad, yet bad things happen everyday to people like us.
I certainly hate to bring this up, worst case scenario- and NOT ANY LISTS, but there are many deaths each year that happen when strangers meet. A young male model in Pensacola, FL(area) was found on the beach dead. The mother knowing he had done drugs, alcohol with a full wallet, that was found up the beach-and a cell phone filled with numbers of 3 particular men that were last to see him alive. That was not even the situation, but when the autopsy results came back, and he had not drowned. He had been killed. Because the police dept did not want to give negative publicity to the party area, it was passed off as a drowning due to intoxication.
When we go out to these high profile places, cruise ships, bars, or even the park, this could happen to you and I. Make sure you leave a note saying where you are going, when you will be back and stick to it. Don't beware, you loose the fun in life, but be aware of where you are, going and have been.
PS- There was a family in the same general area that lost 2 sons previously autopsied by the same departments as the model They are the ones that called the models family to make them aware of the possibilities or wrong doing, I mean no slander, so no names- it was this that the mother had 2nd autopsy done, forensic photos studied to find it was not an accidental death, but foul play.
Could you be strong enough to call a family in distress and fill them in on the possibilities of murder, even where the legal system may have covered it...and by the way, the Models killer may be incarcerated on other charges at this point (threatened to kill his pregnant girlfriend and their unborn child).
Teach your children and parents these things too. Its not that you want to know all their business, but you and your family deserve to know where to start looking if (God forbid) you fail to come home.
