To be clear, I think it is completely unreasonable and unrealistic to expect people not to discuss it at all on here. I'm personally not sure where that line is though between reality and sensitivity, so I guess for myself that means not posting update details that are email, since I supposed that is what prompted the request.
My problem is if you start deleting threads, where does it stop? Some really important information has come out in posts that some would LOVE to see deleted. If that starts, where does it stop? I am sure some toes are smarting from some of the CAM threads. Now what if they were taken down?
If there is anything we have learned here, sometimes the truth is inconvenient.
Who needs a "Where is Sasha Krause?" thread when we have a "Where is the Sasha Krause thread?" thread?
Having said that, I've moved this thread from Anabaptist Theology and Practice (!) to the more appropriate Other category. Which will undoubtedly prompt a "Where is the 'Where is the Sasha Krause thread?' " thread.
Sometimes law enforcement does not want some things going public as it can hinder the investigation. I think we should be sensitive to and praying for the situation rather than acting like we have a right to all the latest information. Are we curious and want to know what is going on? Certainly!!! But what I know or don't know will not speed up the outcome of the investigation.
FYI - They are contacting other sources and sites, it is not just here. Quoting someone from Farmington on Facebook below:
The investigation is requesting that less be shared on social media in order to protect the integrity of the investigation. I was reached out to specifically to tone it down. So I won't be sharing any more.
I realize that may be difficult for many people who do genuinely care, but if the authorities feel that is in Sacha's best interest, I will certainly comply. I have every confidence that they know what they're doing and are doing it well.

I don't usually react the requests for threads to be gone, but a missing person is a different issue and would rather be safe than sorry. I am not interested in the fact that this information may be out there other places. I can not do anything about that, but if it helps the family right now, I am happy to do what little we can here.

Try hard not to offend. Try harder not to be offended.
I think I am funnier than I really am.
