What an honor! Thanks!

Well deserved Bill,you have alot of great info on your blog.We are also very proud to have you as a member here,keep up the great work!

You are so kind, Chris!
This is my first website, and I needed a lot of encouragement to take it on. I am thankful that I got it when I needed it.
After the trial I was so outraged! , and that is what motivated me to get on the Net and start pushing buttons to draw attention to the story.

I just couldn't believe someone could confess to a murder and walk out of court.
I also couldn't believe the court was so hard on the police who have made so much effort to solve the case.

Another thing that motivated me was that Debbie Key never had a proper funeral, as her body has never been found. I thought she deserved some kind of memorial somewhere. She was a positive influence on so many.

Today I am very thankful for all the positive connections I have made since opening the website. So many families and friends of victims I have met over the Net are now special people in my life. It's like I have a new family now.

Special thanks to everyone here at CCF for being so supportive! I love you all!
Peace and Blessings
Bill

So Bill I would like to share with others some of the different cases listed on your Blog and why you chose to write about them.What drew me to your blog right away was the coincidental meeting you had with John Allore,brother of Theresa Allore.Can you tell us all about it?

With pleasure, Chris.
My friends first met John Allore at the courthouse. He came to attend the trial hearing. No one knew who he was then.

The police were able to obtain a warrant to search the suspect's car, as it was present where Debbie was last seen, but they were unable to obtain a warrant to search the suspect's house.

When the house went up for sale, some police detectives, and also my friend, Joy Preslar, posed as prospective buyers for the property, in order to get inside the house and look around.

Joy took pictures and she showed them to me. They looked like the background for a horror movie. We knew there was something creepy about the place. I have never posted the pics, as this would have been an invasion of privacy, for the family was still living there then.

Sometime after the trial, Joy found the website of "Who Killed Theresa?" and called my attention to it. It totally blew my mind to read John's story! I shuddered all the way through it!

It was so amazing to me that a man who left his home in Canada and came to the US to start a new life, trying to get away from the tragedy of his sister, had been brought right back into it when he settled in the area and bought his first home.

Patricia Pearson, writing for the National Post, first wrote the story. Later I read John's own "Bad Dream House," where the story really struck home for me. I have seen the pictures of the house, and could see it just as John had described it.

I sent an email to John, saying "Permission to come aboard?" introducing myself, and asking to join his blogging team. It is there that I met Doreen, and then others who have become my new "family."

After that, I had the material I needed to start a website about Debbie, along with the material that Joy had. John had given me a whole lot of encouragement, and for that I will always be grateful. It was also through John that I made my first contact with NC Wanted.

Thanks again, John Allore. You have made a friend for life.

I myself have never had the honor of corresponding with John,but I have read his blog and heard so much about him from you Bill & Doreen.I first heard of Theresa's story after I had first met Doreen and they were participating in a search with John & others.It has always amazed me how strong family members can be in such tragic circumstances.This is an unfortunate thing to have to say,but I have made some of my best friends in the past few years because of such tragic cases.

When I first started up my little forum I was googling for cases to post and one of the first I found was Sharron's story.I read the Prior's website over and over and I finally got the courage up to write them a letter.Doreen responded to me that very day and me,her & Moreen have been good friends ever since.(I hope they feel the same way..lol.)We even have the pleasure of Doreen & Moreens mother being a member here as well.After writing that first letter I got the courage to continue and I have made so many friends since that time.I am so thankful for meeting everyone and I feel blessed that so many have trusted me with their loved ones stories.I have been asked many times why I continue to do this and its not because I feel I have to.Its because I feel like I am a part of a family here.I may not be a huge succesful crime forum like many are,I am no Websleuths by any means..lol..But I hope with the wonderful help of my partner Doreen and all the rest of my great moderators we have created a spot where families feel comfortable,and know we are always here for them.

Now that I have nattered on for far to long onto my next question for you.

Now I know we have discussed this somewhat in Ira's forum but many may not have read about it.Can you tell us how you are going to be involved in a search with TES,and who you will be searching for?

Texas EquuSearch will be coming to Gaston County, NC, to search for Jamie Fraley and Jennifer Rivkin.
Pavel Yarmolenko is keeping tabs on the search plans in this forum.

You will see Doreen has already visited there. (Bless her heart!)

Now, Chris, I'm waiting to hear what other cases from my blog you want me to share with the group.
This year, the two that I've written most about are Eve Carson and Allison Jackson-Foy.
Should I start with one of them?

Please do Bill,I know we all want to know about all the cases you cover.
