Lets clear a couple of things up right now. My sister was anytihng but shy and she let anyone and everyone know she wasnt shy. Next is this crap about us reporting her missing four days after. Uh no... not just no.. but Heck no! She was reported missing that afternoon. If you want the facts then i suggest you talk to me and her mother because this crap of lies you published will get you SUED!
