UPDATE:9.28.07 Unidentified girl on tape in NV--May Trigger

http://www.kntv.com/

The above link as of now has video of the press conference today. During that conference police indentified by name a Person of Interest to them in this case. His name is Chester Authur Stiles, he already has warrants out for arrest in another matter. They released the first name of the little girl being abused as Madison, they will not confirm a spelling, and said that the man in the tape called the little girl this several times during the taping. They are asking that anyone knowing her, him or the whereabouts of either please come forward immediately. They believe that either the mother does NOT know about this OR would not come forward. They are fairly certain that this is not a case of kidnapping and that this man has done this to this particular girl before, based on analysis of the tape. They honestly believe that the only thing that will crack this is going to be a tip from a care worker, relative, someone that has served one or the other in a resturant, etc.......They are still asking that this be disseminated to the fullest. During the press conference they showed a picture of Chester Stiles, and this should be available online as soon as reporters finish writing their stories. They still have no clue as to WHERE the tape was made or exactly WHEN but more than likely was made after Jan. 2005. They also said they have NO CLUE where this man and little girl may be at this moment, i.e. which state.

Re: Update #2 about the video found in the desert--Possible Trigger

Just saw that the Nye County Detectives working this case have identified the older dark haired girl on the vidoe, they have confirmed that she was NEVER harmed, as the suspected. They confirmed the portion of the video containing this girl was filmed in Nye County. The detective would like for anyone posting the photos to stop posting the ones of the older girl since she no longer needs to be identified. They are still searching for the younger girl and the man on the video. They are still asking that anyone posting/emailing/blogging about this:

Update about the video found in the desert--Possible Trigger

Hi all, just wanted to share with you what I've found out about the video of the little girl being molested that was supposedly found in the desert out west......This is true, Americas Most Wanted aired it this past weekend, below is their article and two others.....there are phone numbers in the articles to call if you know the identity of any of the people pictured. After reviewing the tape, detectives are now saying a second girl is seen on the video and she is about 10 they believe. Detectives say that the 10 yr old is not being abused in anyway on the tape, only the 4-5 yr. old. The AMW site has enhanced pictures of both girls and the man on the tape that are clearer than the ones going through emails. I've gotten several emails with just the pictures of the little girl and several with just pics of the girl and the man.....if you have gotten these emails and forwarded them please also forward the links to the stories below, so that everyone out there realizes this is not a hoax!!

Police believe that the video was shot sometime around 2003 or 2004. The man that turned in the video has been arrested and released. Before you get all angry at that, read the articles and see why......

Money for DV Victims/Survivors

As ya'll can see I'm off on a tangent....I couldn't think of anything good to write about the news so you got just a small roll-up....it made me think....instead of just always looking for what others are doing and reporting that to you....WHY in the world am I not doing something productive like looking for help for those already out of their situations or getting ready to leave a DV relationship....isn't that what UAADV is here for to help? Well, yeah, sure we will help those seeking a shelter to take them and assist others in dealing with the emotional pieces of their lives that have been scattered by DV.....but really what could I do to help more women? So below you have my feeble attempt.....I've found four (well, there's more but I'm still checking them out) ways to help with education money, housing money, emergency funds, plastic surgery and even housing itself. I know two of the below must be filled out by the DV shelter or organization you are getting help from already.....Where there is a will and great enough need we will find a way to make these programs work for you!!!
Advocates: If you don't already know about these they are great to keep on a back burner until someone comes to you that could benefit from them!!!

http://www.nnedv.org/our-programs/allstate-foundation-dv-program/allstate-foundation-education-job-tracking.html

Once you click this link it looks like a blank page, scroll down, there is a brief story and a request to donate, just keep scrolling, near the bottom it tells you how to apply for this.....it's a $2000 individual personal grant.....shelter workers: this may help someone you are assisting right now!!! http://www.nnedv.org/ourprograms/amys-courage-fund/

http://www.rosefund.org/programs/Program.asp

If you live in any of these states: West Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, South Carolina and North Carolina, you may be eligible for up to 24 months help in transitional housing through this organization, just read what this program offers. Look around the website you may be able to get help from them for other stuff also even if you don't need the housing. Use the Contact Us link to get the phone number and CALL THEM!!!!http://www.helpingamericans.org/transitional_housing.html
