I WAS AFRAID TO GRAB HER
Witness was sure restaurant girl was Maddie but feared causing a scene

He said he wanted to call out her name to see what reaction he got...he should have! But then again, they say we all have a twin somewhere in the world.

I just dont know what to believe about the Maddie case. Here she is seen half way around the world from all the recent Brussels sightings etc.. I hope that she is found, but due to the way the enquiry was handled and of course the time factor, I have to consider the worst for her.
Bless her, shes so young.

I know what you mean, Whitdawg. It's hard to think that she's most likely dead, but then again, with children being sold into slavery all around the world...it's hard to say what's become of her.

There are times that I wish I wasn't correct. Not regarding something like this. I guess as we get older we become more jaded.
