missing: December 2007 Archives

The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children is highlighting the missing grandchildren of U.S. Rep Gary Miller on its home page.

Here's the poster seeking information. The picture of Jennifer Dejongh/Jennifer Lopez comes from the site.

Jude Lopez, Jennifer's father,  sent me this information with some comments of his own:

I noticed that pictures of my daughter and her kids appear on the Missing and Exploited Children.  I don’t think they should be there because my daughter had custody when she failed to take the children for a visit.  If you look at the other pictures, those issues are a lot more serious.  There must be some rules about having your picture displayed on this website. Maybe it has to do with possible harm.  Last week the poster indicated that there was a federal warrant.  I called and asked for the warrant number and they said they couldn’t give it out.  Now they changed it to a felony warrant.  I don’t know if that is true.  I believe Gary Miller had his hand in this especially since the photos used were the passport photos.  I don’t believe, even with all your resources, you could get those photos.
 

He's back from Minnesota but Isaac Campbell was not ready Tuesday to enter a plea in the state's case against him.

Here's the story from PSN's Molly Okeon:

Isaac Campbell, 32, appeared in Alhambra Superior Court on Tuesday, wearing a blue jumpsuit and glasses.
Campbell is charged in the death of Liya “Jessie” Lu, 31, of San Gabriel. He was being held in lieu of $1.2 million bail.
Campbell is also facing two marijuana charges in a separate case.
Lu, who was studying to be a nurse at Pasadena City College, was working two part-time jobs as a Kaiser Permanente Hospital medical assistant and a secretary in a law office. She had moved from China to the United States nine years ago.
Lu’s body was found in the 1700 block of South Baldwin Avenue in Arcadia in September.
She was reported missing to the San Gabriel Police Department on Aug. 11 after she failed to return from a visit to Campbell’s apartment, officials said.
Authorities said Campbell was called in for questioning briefly, then fled to Minnesota, from which he was extradited.
Before leaving town, Campbell asked a friend who owned the Arcadia home at which Lu’s body was found to store several items, including a vehicle and a trash can, officials said.
The friend discovered Lu’s body sealed in a plastic garbage bag and covered with kitty litter in the trash can, officials said.
Lu’s parents, Yongtai Lu and Shilan Guo, who are in the U.S. from China for the court proceedings, were present at the hearing, along with friends of their daughter’s.
According to her cousin, Jeremy Zhou a San Gabriel resident, Lu has two brothers, 40-year-old Jun and 36-year-old Gang, both of whom live in China.
