I am pretty sure they have heard of the 224613 Project which involves going to the people you serve and asking them what they would like to see on their information resource. There was an article in the Villages Daily Sun on Memorial Day 2007 about my efforts. This was written by Gary Corsair.

I do not believe that the police operate in a vacuum. They sometimes act like it though.

It is better that many voices push for change rather than one that some labelled as a fruitcake over the years. I still have a little problem when authorities Google my real name which also occurred when Gary Corsair was doing his research before the Memorial Day 2007 article on me came out. I have sent some rather stupid e-mails out over the 17 years now I have been working on this Project online. I started working on this in 1991 in earnest even though it is rooted in my experiences dealing with the murder investigation in the killing of Michelle Mitchell on 2-24-1976 on my birthday. This was the daughter of my then remedial English teacher Mrs. Barbara Mitchell at Earl Wooster High School. The police bumbled around with this investigation for three years up through 1979 and then got the wrong person. She just got out in the Spring of 2015. She had been convicted a number of times for false confessions to the murder of Michelle Mitchell. There was the problem that she was a paranoid schizophrenic.

The Gary Corsair article was about libraries getting practical information for survivors/victims of crimes but so should the leos' web-sites.

What I am trying to say is that I do not have all that much control over what comes up when people especially law enforcement people Google my real name.

Gary Corsair did want to look at mine correspondence in this 224 613 Project but I said no as the only reason he had even become aware of this work of mine-- as far as what he told me-- is that he was wandering around in Lynnhaven and my gardening mother had mentioned that I was doing something newsworthy. I had no idea who he really was having just met him so I said no. Now that Facebook allows posting of many documents and control by the person that puts them up of what people can and cannot see, I have been trying to share SOME of these documents that Gary Corsair had wanted to see.

I hope people realize that this 224 613 Project is international in scope so I do have to be careful about it getting into the wrong hands. It is about education of survivors/victims of crimes about the resources available in their local communities. This will be different in each community. I have tried get all kinds of organizations involved with solving this problem of access to practical information since 1991.
