Compare the handling of the Beth Bentley case with the handling of the case of the missing co-ed from the University of Indiana town of Bloomington. Read Tuesday's article by a "Nancy Grace" researcher on http://www.cnn.com/2011/CRIME/06/14/indiana.missing.woman/index.html?hpt=us_t4
You'll spot some of the differences right away:
- Amount of media coverage;
- 1,000 tips, 350 of which came in after a segment aired on America's Most Wanted last Saturday;
- Lauren Spierer, 20, reportedly left her cell phone and shoes at a bar in the early morning hours of June 3.
- No resistance at all from interviews with "second-tier" subjects (family members and friends);
- Additional "fresh eyes" already on the case;
- 1,000 volunteers a day searching;
- $100,000 reward by the family.
Compare even that information with what has happened in the Beth Bentley case.
- Number of tips: unknown;
- No word about who has been interviewed by police;
- No known "fresh eyes" on the case that are recognized by Woodstock Police;
- A few solo searchers in southern Illinois and in Woodstock. None organized or authorized by police;
- $2,000 reward offered by Crime Stoppers. Another $3,000 reward was initially offered, although it is not known by whom or if still offered.
