It's taken 3 days for this to hit the media. She's a lovely, brilliant young woman - hope they find her.

Are they not US citizens then?

No, they are Indian citizens who moved here to send their kid to Thomas Jefferson.

This should have been clearly stated in the whiny post up thread blaming the US officials for not going to bat for this Indian family whose Indian daughter, bless her soul, is vacationing in a third country, the DR.

I’m in Germany as I write this and a US citizen who went to McGill, and if I go missing in Munich nobody expects Canada to do the heavy lifting to find me.

Couldn't they have dual citizenship?

"She and this person went for a swim and were caught by a big wave, the police report said."

National U.S. media coverage isn't going to help anything.

Bless your heart. It’s on TMZ and People now. Media outlets were just alerted this morning, and it’s Sunday morning. But, you’re racist, so.

I truly hope she is safe and they find her.

I hope we are wrong and the press keeps up the coverage but it’s a fact that missing brown and black girls don’t receive the same amount of press as missing white girls.

PP you're responding to. Agree that was the case. It's not longer the case. Let's move on from the past, let go of virtue signaling and anger and old liberal talking points and focus on sending well wishes to her family and pray that she returns home safely. If you're really that concerned, you'd redirect the time you spent googling left leaning data and you'd be emailing news outlets with her info instead. You're just salivating to turn this into an issue of racism. Let's keep this productive.

You’re wrong.

You’re an idiot.

The only people who can have a big impact on this are people in the exact place where she went missing.

People think all the media coverage helps but I don't think it does at all. It's just voyeuristic horror stories to frighten ourselves with. All that Natalee Holloway coverage didn't do a bit of good. Her killer wasn't busted and he reoffended.

What helps are police and other people on the ground.

And right now our fed.govt. is in a mess so I wouldn't be hoping for speedy, effective diplomacy right now...and even if it was effective...only people who saw her, maybe the local telecom if people nearby were producing phone data, and anyone involved in however she disappeared can help. So at best US diplomatic pressure might hurry up some data analysis. It wouldn't bring this poor girl home alive.
