Are you getting it yet? The media can't be trusted to report this story accurately since they fucked it up so badly the first time around never bothering to find out if any of it was true. The people that say who they are can't be trusted to be telling the truth about that either since they've been found to be LIARS.

And where is the media NOW in untangling any of this story or even saying that these pages no longer exist? And of course they no longer exist because the fraudsters know they've been found out and are trying to erase their fraudulent tracks... too little, too late. Where is the media on where the money is, what charges they should be facing and where the hell the police are? What, if anything, do the parents have to do with this fraud? Why aren't they speaking up and never spoke up on the fraudster websites ever? Do the parents even have custody of the kid? Since it's their kid, why have they never said a word about anything of this either before or after? What are the parents names for heaven's sake, if they exist?
