   i am still distraught over what took place almost 2 years ago my daughters out looking desperatley for their sister and many friends going state wide to try and find her yet spokanes finest could not have gave a damn due to hoopfest my daughter rae baning on the doors of a news station and no one caring yet oh she is just a runaway why does not the town look and care for people in which u know my daughter would have always called back with in minutes of myself or anyone else calling her….. we reported her missing twice with the authorities and yet still no one believed our story what a bunch of punks if this had been their child it would have been in the news immediatly and also probably on the reader board… i just will not let this drop the inconsiderate police of spokane karma is karma mom

   I also feel the emotions still strong from the moment rae called saying Jamie was missing 2 yrs ago today. Her dad and I stayed up all night calling the phone company to get them to track her phone. What we had to go thru to get a sherrif office to give the phone company the necessary legal paper work to finally track her gps in her phone and then for the phone company to tell us they could only give us the tower that was closest to the signal. This took hours to accomplish. How frustrating and agrivating this was! The government can see us by satellite but when we have a loved one missing it is terrible feat to get them to believe us and then to act timely. Sue, the feelings of helplessness when you told the authorities your child is missing and they don’t believe you and then sluff you off with “Oh she is just a run away” is absolutely outrageous! The law needs to be changed to work for the innocent and not the guilty in all aspects! As we traveled from state to state towards WA we stopped at every state highway patrol and reported Jamie missing with a flyer and urged them to please put an APB. The results were more than frustrating! I know other families and parents who have ever lost a child even in the mall for a few minutes can’t get the cooperation of police and security to help in the location of securing the child. The law and training of the law inforcements needs to be changed. I don’t know how but something is urging me that this is what we need to focus on in memory of Jamie. The more we put our energy into Kevin Newland and hating him for what he did is not the answer. When we do this we are giving energy to support Kevin Newland as he thrives on negative energy. We need to put our energy into being positive… into what needs to be done to change what wasn’t done or was done inappropriately to us to help others. Mama Bear maybe it is time to put up a web page for missing persons to post on as that was another area that was weak when I immediately started posting to the web looking for Jamie. Thousands of people use the web every moment and moments are all it take to save someones life. Used to be missing children were on milk cartons, however every gallon of milk I buy today I don’t see any missing children’s pictures. Hospitals could be linked into an alert system such as amber alert that gets the word out there. There is a multitude of things we CAN do to help stop what has happened. Kevin is in jail now… not where we all feel he deserves to be. He took Jamies life and his karma will be paid back to him one day (something we don’t know as it is futuristic but it will). As I read all the posts, your right, they are all listed…. Kevin Newland.. read all about the guy who murdered Jamie Drake… It is as if Kevin is being given the attention he wants. If you google Jamie Drake… all you will see is her My Space. She is not being given the attention for who she is and was. We need to change this. I am happy to help forge with you both to make this happen. Let me know if you want to discuss further.
   Let Jamies memory live forever!
   Always with love!

   I am on your side and want to support this quest and have no negativity towards Jamie Lynn only love! If you need my help I am happy to help in this as I also want to see Jamie’s memory live forever! She was the most beautiful person with so much love and compassion to give everyone. She did not deserve to have her life shortened by the hands of Kevin Newland! I will contact Sue regarding the book as I may be able to help her in this way. If you need my help Mama Bear I am also happy to help in any way I can. Sue should know how to contact me directly. Thank you for sharing and may God’s blessings be upon us all as we do what we do!
   Let me know …I am here to support Jamie Lynn Drake’s memory!
