The Search for Rachel, a father's journal

Saturday, April 1 through Sunday, April 9

I spoke with law enforcement this week. They still have some leads to work on. One of them is promising, but we've had so many previous deadends it doesn't do any good to get hopeful about any one tip. I am very happy that they are communicating with us so well.

There is plenty of room in the M.U.S.T. self-defense and awareness seminar scheduled for April 25 at 6:30 p.m. Information and directions are available on www.rachelalert.org/must. The seminar is free.

Monday, April 10 through Sunday, April 23

THE INSIDER syndicated television program called Rachel's mother Janet. They want to do a story on Rachel. Janet and I both agree that additional national media coverage on Rachel's case is needed. The program just might reach the right person who will come forward with information we need to solve Rachel's case.

Later Janet and I found out THE INSIDER wants to bring in psychic James Von Praagh as part of the program. It's been difficult to get Rachel any national mediaattention, so we agreed to this even though we are skeptical about psychics. Afterall, we've talked to over 30 psychics, and none of them has provided any useful information.

Monday I attended the Texas Crime Victim Remembrance program in Austin. Victims of violent crime and drunk driving and the missing were honored. I placed a rose for the missing in a vase on the stage.

We had to cancel this week's M.U.S.T. self-defense and awareness seminar due to the illness of someone at the sponsoring location. We will reschedule the seminar for the second half of May.

The team for THE INSIDER television program flew out to work on Rachel's case this Wednesday and Thursday. Rachel's mother Janet and I met them at the Cimarron Hills Visitors' Center in Georgetown. The staff consisted of a producer, a makeup lady, two cameramen, two sound men, and a grip.

They interviewed the lead investigator from the Williamson County Sheriff's Office, the psychics, Janet, and me. Yes, we all had makeup applied.

Although I knew psychic James Von Praagh was coming, I didn't know he was bringing three other psychics. They like to work as a team to try and verify what they feel. We found Mr. Praagh to be a very nice and caring person. I'm going to let people view their visions for themselves on THE INSIDER.

THE INSIDER segment on Rachel is scheduled to be broadcast on Friday, May 5th. It is syndicated, so check your local listings for the channel and time in your area or visit insider.tv.yahoo.com/index.html.
