Still no one is poking around the Wilson brother salvage yard on Dudley Road. If you have been following the previous posts you will know that the salvage yard sits 2.5 miles away from where the belongings were tossed out along side of the road. Why this has not been searched is both a mystery and a disappointment. for more about Wilson's Salvage Yard click here

That said I have been extremely impressed with the effort put forth by some extremely dedicated members of law enforcement. All day long today it rained buckets on the 60 or more officers as they poked around looking for clues. I am also impressed with the vigil kept by the friends and family of Michelle's as they search for her while law enforcement looks elsewhere. It was Sunday's find by Michelle's stepmother Beth that caused Sunday's search and thus the discovery of other important evidence. Today I saw the family and friends walk the roads near the Salvage Yard owned by David Wilson's brother William Keith Wilson.

The Fayetteville Observer Tuesday is reporting that "On Monday, William Wilson said that law enforcement has not talked to him about the search on Bogie Island Road and that he does not know how close it is to his home. He declined to discuss the case further." Thanks for the interest brother man!

The searchers today found a few more items of various levels of importance depending on the lab results. When you search hard enough you will find everything including a submerged car. Yes a car was found in a pond located within the search area. When I told my brother Marc about this (Marc being a retired law enforcement officer, a Graduate of the FBI National Academy and a Private Investigator) he recalled a story about a murder investigation he conducted when they found a car in a pond years ago. When divers went in they found 4 more cars. Apparently it was a dumping ground for stolen cars or cars involved in insurance fraud. But this is a good indication of how deep the search is going as they struggle to find evidence that will bring about a location of Julie Michelle Bullard.

I learned today how this search began. According to Debbie Tana, spokesperson for the Cumberland County Sheriff's Office, a man flagged down a deputy as the deputy was making a routine pass through the community of Cedar Creek. When the deputy stopped he was told by this man that he had found a wallet the day before that belonged to the abducted and still missing Michelle Bullard. When asked why it took so long for the man to report the found wallet he said that he was afraid to do so.

I asked if the man who found the wallet was Hispanic and here is why, on Wednesday just after sunset, a man called the CUE Center for Missing Persons Tip Line. The caller could not speak English. What he did manage to say was "missing girl" "grass" "road." In the background a beep-beep-beep noise could be heard as if heavy equipment was being operated. The man hung up and called back to repeat what he had just said, "missing girl" "grass" "road". The man was advised to find someone that could speak English and to call back. In the meantime, Monica Caison the Founding Director of CUE found an interpreter and within 20 minutes called the man back. The man did not answer and the interpreter left a message on his voice mail that instructed him to call 911 to make his report. Ms. Caison immediately called the Sanford Police to report the call and gave the detective the cell phone number of the caller.

Many times Hispanic's will be afraid to phone the police. First it is not something that is familiar to many of their cultures and second they may be here illegally and fear deportation.

We searched his cell phone number for an identity and found out that his cell phone account was set up in Dunn, NC. Dunn is approximately 20 miles from Fayetteville.

This may be a stretch at this point to link the call to the wallet, but what if something like that did happen? This is exactly why it is important to get the word out in areas outside of Broadway and Sanford. It is why it is so important for all news media, including those whose audience is primarily Hispanic, to get with the campaign to find Michelle Bullard.

These newly discovered belongings were found 60 miles from Broadway. David Wilson was reportedly last seen in a convenience store at approximately 11PM and was known to be seen at 7PM the following day when he shot himself. That is 20 hours. He could have easily driven to Charleston, SC and back in that amount of time. Think about just how important it is to act quick, to get her picture out there, to get as much information that is known about the case so that a detailed story on her will get out and someone like Citizen X will do the right thing and report what he or she knows.

Had Michelle's photo ID not have been in the wallet, who would have reported finding it? Perhaps pictures could have been released to the media of examples of the items taken from the home that night. Had Michelle's step mom not have noticed the make up case on the same patch of road searched many times prior, who would have? In fact who would have noticed anything if this tip that has led authorities to Cedar Creek was a tip from the same man that called CUE Center for Missing Persons' Tip Line? Because this tip came into the CUE Center's Tip Line it couldn't have come from the media, it came from a flyer or press release that was posted somewhere outside of the immediate area because of the networking of CUE Team members that distributed it nationwide. Otherwise why would he have dialed the number that he did? It is important that we all do what we can to help bring an awareness to Michelle Bullard's abduction and her tragic disappearance.
