Padilla, Kid Finders??? In the End Who is the Organization that Really Searches and Finds Missing Persons … Texas Equusearch that’s Who

What attracted the 3 Ring Circus to the case of missing Caylee Anthony? Where did all the side shows come from?

There is only one organization that is really searching for missing persons. See if you can tell which one it is below. They do so when the cameras are off, there is no media to be found and no circus in town. Only Texas EquuSearch stands after the smoke has cleared and continues to search for missing persons where ever they may be and who ever they may be.

Caylee Anthony has been missing since June 9, 2008 in Orlando, FL. However, as most every one knows now Caylee was not reported missing until July 16, 2008. To date after several searches we find ourselves with no Caylee Anthony found, tot mom Casey Anthony indicted and in jail and a mounting 3 Ring Circus of people around the case with questionable motives at best. Now it would appear that we have to check the people that have involved them self in this missing person case and their motives.

Last week it was reported that the parents of indicted Casey Anthony had fired the family spokesperson because as their attorney stated, Larry Garrison was secretly profiting from the case of missing 3 year old Caylee Anthony. Garrison states that he resigned, you make the call.

Then  we are presented with the bizarre and eye opening story of Dennis Milstead who runs Kid Finders, a non-profit organization that is supposed to aide in finding missing children. A missing persons non-profit organization as WFTV puts it has never found a missing kid.

Enter bounty hunter Leonard Padilla and the media circus in tow. Every night we are presented with a new theory and new comment from Padilla on the Nancy Grace show. What is most puzzling is that many of the comments one would thing would have been stated months ago as they occurred so far in the past with Padilla’s knowledge. Some say that any search is a good search as long as Caylee is found. That may be; however, the motivation of a search speaks volumes to its very credibility. Could that be why Orlando LE wants nothing to do with Padilla and his Blanchard Park search and want him to take a polygraph? No one from Texas Equusearch is being offered $200,000 as Bounty Hunter Leonard Padilla was to provide exclusive rights to films a search effort. Leonard Padilla last night on Scared Monkeys radio discussed this story as well as to the $200,000 offer  (1:16:00). Exclusivity for the filming of a missing persons search. Sorry if I take offense to the personal profiting for searching for a missing child.

News 13 has learned bounty hunter Leonard Padilla is considering an offer that would pour $200,000 into the search for Caylee Anthony.

Padilla told News 13 he has been contacted by a company that is willing to fund the search effort if Padilla is willing to give them exclusive rights to film the search effort.

The bounty hunter said he has not made a final decision on if he is willing to take the offer.

Last night on Scared Monkeys radio  (1:12:00) Dana Pretzer discussed with Mark Williams the situation of the owner and diver Todd Bosinski of Black Water  who according to WFTVwas recently asked to resign from the Orange County sheriff’s office, because he had lied to his captain saying that he was a Green Beret in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Bosinski gave the impression he had credibility as an investigator by telling California bounty hunter Leonard Padilla that he was a former Orange County deputy. But Eyewitness News has learned he’s a former deputy because, while he was still a trainee, he lied to his captain, Ralph Groover.

Capt. Groover’s memo obtained by Eyewitness News (read memo) says Bosinski lied on February 18, 2008, that he had served in Iraq and Afghanistan as a Special Forces medic with the 4th Special Forces group. Nine days later, Capt. Groover asked Bosinski to confirm that, but Groover’s memo says, at that point, Bosinski said it was all “bulls***” and that none of it was true.

Bosinski resigned a half hour later.

Credibility is a real issue in life. Credibility and character make us what we are. Last night while being interviewed by Dana Pretzer on Scared Monkeys radio  (1:18:00) Padilla defended and justified his diver Todd Bosinski of Blackwater Divers who had previously resigned from the police for lying about his military service. Padilla basically said that all people in the military lie about their service. Really? Anyone think that Padilla does not owe an apology to the brave men & women of our military? 

Then we have Texas EquuSearch where all they do is search after search after search. However, with no media in sight, with no circus in town Texas EquuSearch does what they do best … search and find missing persons to bring closure to families across America. Sadly in the case of missing 23 year old Brandon Rosales’ body was found today by Tim Miller and another member of Texas EquuSearch.

The search for a missing Bryan man turns up a body in Robertson County.

Brandon Rosales, 23, went missing over the weekend after reportedly being threatened at a party.

According to WFTV Man Who Runs Kid Finders, Dennis Milstead, has Serious Problems with his Criminal Past and his Non Profit Group

What is going on with the Kid Finders Network?

The Kid Finders Network, a not for profit group that deals with missing children has been at the forefront of the Caylee Anthony missing persons case and also in the camp of the parents of indicted tot mom Casey Anthony. For quite some time there have been stories simmering under the surface regarding Kid Finders. There have been several allegations and rumors swirling regarding Kid Finders and their involvement in this case and several others.

Dennis Milstead confronting WFTV reporter & camera man

Now comes this bomb shell from WFTV regarding Dennis Milstead who runs the Kid Finders Network …

VIDEO

Watch the above video of  Dennis Milstead getting physical once again with a camera man has he did just recently in Blanchard Park during a meeting with the Anthony’s and Leonard Padilla. Temper, temper.

He’s been arrested twice, once for assault and once for impersonating a police officer, and he’s the man Caylee Anthony’s grandparents are trusting to help find their granddaughter.

Dennis Milstead runs the so-called Kid Finders Network, but Eyewitness News uncovered serious problems with his criminal past and his not-for profit group, including the fact Kid Finders has never found anybody.

Still, the organization is out every day, collecting donations using jars with Caylee’s picture on them. Even the Palm Beach County sheriff’s sergeant who helps run their Crime Stoppers operation says Orange County deputies have been warned about Milstead.

When Eyewitness News confronted Milstead about his criminal past, he got very quiet and then he grabbed WFTV reporter Kathi Belich’s microphone and pushed the camera while WFTV photographer Adam Liberatore was holding on to it.

Pictures of the confrontation can be seen here.

WFTV also goes on to report that Milstead in the past claimed he was a law enforcement officer, was arrested for a felony but plead down to a misdemeanor and seven months later another arrest for assault.  Eyewitness News also reported that the president of Crime Stoppers in south Florida had a restraining order against Milstead.

Milstead’s pickup truck had a “Gotcha” emblem on the side of it instead of the Kid Finders emblem he has now. West Palm Beach police say he flashed phony blue lights and claimed he was a law enforcement officer. He plead his felony down to a misdemeanor and seven months later another arrest for assault.

People’s Republic of Vermont: Pledge of Allegiance Controversy in Woodbury Elementary School in Vermont

When was the last time that Vermont ever sided with that which is actually patriotic and traditional?

Once again welcome to the People’s Socialist Republic of Vermont formerly known as the Green Mountain State has an issue when it comes to honoring America. What is the gripe this time? It appears there is a controversy at the Woodbury Elementary School over the daily recitations of the Pledge of Allegiance. Once again the state of Vermont has forgotten that they are actually part of the United States of America.

But efforts to restore them have erupted into a bitter dispute in this tiny town, with school officials blocking the exercise from classrooms amid concerns that it holds nonparticipating children up to scorn.

Supporters say the classroom is the place for it, and the disagreement has fueled an increasingly acrimonious debate among the town’s 810 residents.

“The whole thing is tearing our community apart,” said Heather Lanphear, 39, the mother of a first-grade student.

Unlike other Pledge controversies, this one centers on how and where schoolchildren say it, not whether they should be allowed to.

The controversy began when Ted Tedesco, 55, a retired U.S. Marine Corps Major, began circulating petitions calling for its return as a daily practice of reciting the Pledge of Allegiance. The pledge was allowed; however, it could not be done in the classroom but instead were marched out of the classroom and to the auditorium. The touchy-feely principal and school board defended these actions as they did not want those not saying the pledge to feel bad.

“We don’t want to isolate children every day in their own classroom, or make them feel they’re different,” Principal Michaela Martin said.

Martin and School Board Chairwoman Retta Dunlap defended the practice, saying it restored the Pledge to the school as requested, preserved the rights of students who — for political or religious reasons — didn’t want to participate and gave others the opportunity to pledge their allegiance.

Political and religious reasons? If a child has an issue with saying the words “under God”, heaven forbid then all they have to do is not say those words while taking the pledge. However, maybe the principal, school board and someone can explain “political” reasons. A child lives in America, is allowed the rights and services of living in America and is being provided an education in America and cannot Pledge of Allegiance to America? Exactly what country do they want to pledge allegiance to?

Maybe in the People’s Republic of Vermont they would more allow the song below to be played and recited by school children every morning? Some hoe I doubt whether the liberal educators would object.

Coming soon to Vermont class rooms …Vermont educators will soon be playing this video before class every morning

What Has Happened to America … “Are You an Idiot to Keep Paying Your Mortgage?”

America was built on the hard work, perseverance and responsibilty of generations and generations of people. Individuals faced tough times and the road bumps of life and over came life’s issues, trials and tribulations because they were responsible and wanted to succeed. There use to be a time when taking the easy way and especially fradulent way out was looked down upon.

Today, can that still be said to be true. In the, as News Busters calls it the “You have got to be Kidding Me” moment and as we just like to say WTF … the San Francisco Chronicle actly had an artice advocating for people to stop making payments on their mortgage so that they would qualify for the government bail out package. Some how if one buts too much house and one they cannot afford they are supposed to be bailed out and put and even heavier burden on tax payers and responsible home owners who pay their mortgage. Unreal.

From the San Francisco Chronicle: ‘Are you an idiot to keep paying your mortgage’?

Should you keep paying your mortgage?

If you have significant equity in your home, absolutely.

If you don’t, it’s getting harder to answer that question, especially when our government keeps giving people who owe more than their homes are worth so many reasons not to pay.

Last week, the government announced a program that will substantially lower payments for many homeowners who have little or no equity, but only if they are at least 90 days delinquent.

Here is how one qualifies for this program that will be abused just like ever other government hand out or entitlement. Go to NewsBusters and read more on the ridiculousness of the plan and the program that is destine for abuse.

Global Warming ‘Surreal Scientific Blunder’ in Temperature Records … Its Not Easy Being Green or Being Credible

Its not easy being Green, especially when you cannot even get the data correct.

Global warming eh? Maybe some one would like to explain the “surreal scientific blunder” and the attempted cover up? As Newsbusters states, this “should cause everyone to question the source’s past and future credibility”. The source in question is NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS), the outfit run by world champion globalarmist James Hansen.

Hansen has in the past stated that “heads of major fossil-fuel companies who spread disinformation about global warming should be ‘tried for high crimes against humanity and nature.’”

Nothing more need be said regarding experts and global warming that from The Other McCain, “Boggles the mind that bloggers know more about climatology than the government ‘experts’ do”.

The world has never seen such freezing heat.  (UK Telegraph)

A surreal scientific blunder last week raised a huge question mark about the temperature records that underpin the worldwide alarm over global warming. On Monday, Nasa’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS), which is run by Al Gore’s chief scientific ally, Dr James Hansen, and is one of four bodies responsible for monitoring global temperatures, announced that last month was the hottest October on record.

This was startling. Across the world there were reports of unseasonal snow and plummeting temperatures last month, from the American Great Plains to China, and from the Alps to New Zealand. China’s official news agency reported that Tibet had suffered its “worst snowstorm ever”. In the US, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration registered 63 local snowfall records and 115 lowest-ever temperatures for the month, and ranked it as only the 70th-warmest October in 114 years.
