I cannot imagine the kind of callous rage, blind anger or insane jealousy that would cause someone to make a 23 year-old mother of three young children disappear without a trace! I cannot imagine what benefit or reward these people would think to gain from their hiding of the facts, their lies and distortions or the actual deed itself as it occurred. What can they possible gain? Melanie was not rich and what money she may have had was accounted for, give or take a few hundred dollars. What kind of influence could such a senseless crime bring to any criminal, small or big time, to any drug sub-culture, clan or family? If someone was trying to send a message via her disappearance, they failed miserably in connecting her disappearance as a gesture of retaliation, revenge or tit for tat. Believe me, know one really knows what crazy motive drove her abductors to do what they did. But, there is one tragic irony that we know for sure: Melanie was not a loner and did not spend much time alone. But from shortly before 8AM until she was taken by her abductors, she was alone on July 19, 2006. When she left her two youngest at the day care center, we know she drove alone to Midland Avenue to pick up her half sister. We know she turned around alone at the end of Midland and we know she did not pick up her half sister. Instead her vehicle continued back down Midland where it was spotted just as it turned towards US Route 60. Then just minutes later it was spotted passing in front of the Post Office heading back towards the day care center. Whatever happened to Melanie began at the turnaround on Midland Avenue. It is a fact that several people know what happened on Midland Avenue just before 8AM on July 19, 2006, and so, they also know why she disappeared. Now, almost two years later, there is nothing to gain by remaining silent, nothing to be gained by lies and distortions, and everything to lose by trying to hide the truth. Only the truth will set people free; it will even release the guilty from a burden which will cause them eternal loss. What will it profit the guilty to live another 40, 50 even 70 years with the knowledge that you have hid the truth from her loved ones? Do you think that God in heaven neither knows nor cares? What will you say to Him on your day of judgment? "Forgive me, because it was an accident and I/we didn't mean to hurt her?" And when the Lord asks you, "Then why did you not tell people where she was hidden?" exactly what will you say? And if Melanie is standing next to you with tears in her eyes for the years she lost with her children, and tears in her eyes for YOUR LOST SOULS, what will you say when she is rewarded with eternal life, because she was taken by surprise, therefore in INNOCENCE, while you receive eternal death, because you thought the truth could be spat upon forever? The next step is yours. Tell the truth and live free or try to continue to hide the truth and die forever in ashes on the day God will appoint. And don't be surprised if He does NOT wait for the day of judgment to reveal her whereabouts. That is His work. If you are in the possession of names and facts, you must talk soon, while there is still time for you (and Melanie, and her children, and her family, and her friends) to be freed in our time and before it's God's turn.

Melanie iILove you so much,your children are beautiful someone somewhere knows what happened and they are the scum of the earth life has no meaning anymore and i hope all you people that know and are involved rot in the pits of hell.The moore horrid stories i hear the moore i know we may never know get any justice the law just tiptoe around everything serious but help me if i forget to put the sticker on my plates they'll take me 2 jail but thats our justice system if thats what you call it Sandy

Melanie I was in West Virginia last week and I went eveywhere looking for you I will never stop looking for answers to where you are or what happened to you nor will I stop trying to find out who did something to you. One day we will know and we will bring you home until then the search continues and will until we know the truth. I love you so very much

"As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that
wasn't supposed to ever let you down probably will. You
will have your heart broken probably more than once and
it's harder every time. You'll break hearts too, so
remember how it felt when yours was broken. You'll fight
with your best friend. You'll blame a new love for things
an old one did. You'll cry because time is passing too fast,
and you'll eventually lose someone you love."
Melanie we all miss you dearly. And want you back in our lives! I just wish that whoever knows something about your wereabouts will come to senses soon . We need to find out what happened. Not a day goes by that I don't think of you, and your precious babies growing up without their mother in their life.Or knowing what happened to her. If she went was it peacefully? Or did some coward do something that they WILL regret for the rest of their lives. It is sad and disturbing that this Jason kid knows something more. He acts like it!!
LOVE YOU!!!MISS YOU!!!NEVER FORGOTTEN!!!!!
