If I were the mother of one of the girls this man "touched" or "fondled" while at his house (as he was arrested for), I would not be thinking "poor man" -- any moreso than how I feel when I read any of the stories on these boards about men who touch or violate children. Sorry - I just can't go there with my sympathy level. My sympathy is always for the children first. I obviously think "poor Sierra". I do acknowlege he is hurting and as a human being he worthy of mercy to an extent. But the honest truth is that very likely someone who has taken and/or possibly violated or harmed Sierra is made up of the very same fiber and preference to pervsion as her own father. Very ironic. I do feel an extent of sympathy for him as one of God's creatures, but I also hope that this tragedy prompts him to ponder on the fact that people like him are the cause of why people like Sierra go missing.
I agree, Stolat. I kind of feel the same.
Steve's RSO status and past is complicated.
However, he is father of a missing child.
There is no justification for his past actions in relation to those girls.
Yet regardless of this past transgression, which is a crime,( like Cindy Anthony's lying on the stand was,) and that he has victimized others,
he is clearly not involved in Sierra's disappearance
and is thus a victim
and because he is a human he deserves that acknowledgment
which I feel fine doing despite what he has been convicted of.
I also feel that Steve's RSO status is going to be a major factor in how this case gets played out publicly and how or if we see truth for Sierra.

i don't think your views are unpopular at all, it's exactly how i feel...my compassion for Steve is limited to the fact that he is the father of a missing child, no more. same reason my compassion for Marlene is limited to her being the mother of a missing child, she allowed her daughters to continue living with an RSO-which also put them in danger. i have always been shocked by the support Steve received from his own family-in the article above with Sierra's cousin Keith, he mentions family get togethers, for some reason this family did not seem to care about Steve's RSO status...he would not be around my children!!!

i have always been shocked by the support Steve received from his own family
I do not think this relationship to Steve's behavior and convictions is limited to the family.
from some local freemont contacts, I got the sense that this persists also in the community in either deep ambivalence or just a simple barrier in allowing the full meaning of what these actions indicate about another the capabilities of another person.
i totally agree that a parent involved with that family would not want their child in that home, or at least without a parent personally being there if the parents were making a choice to continue with that relationship- which it appears some have.
his daughters were at risk in a sense also, though in reality perhaps directly not by him.
however his actions however deplorable they are, and they are, most likely did not result in what happened to Sierra, especially as it may not have been a sex offender or random perp who is guilty.
Sierra is his child and she may be dead.

A statement from cousin of Sierra Lamar, though found on another forum, still searching for the exclusive interview that was referred to:
The cousin of the missing Morgan Hill teen gave an exclusive interview where he issued a stern warning to whoever is responsible for Sierra's disappearance. Keith LaMar, her paternal cousin, said the following:
If you wanted to create a very high profile case, you got it. If you wanted to cause heartache and anxiety among friends and family, you got it. Give Sierra back to the people who care for her. Stop being a coward, and own up to your actions. I don't believe in any deity, but I do believe that karma can be very cruel. The longer you keep her from us, the more harsh your fate will be.

Witnesses Come Forward in LaMar Kidnapping
Snipped
Although detectives working on the LaMar case won’t release many details regarding the Volkswagen’s association, LaMar said authorities are currently looking into whether the VW is the right vehicle, and whether surveillance footage depicts the vehicle in the right location, among other things.
Sheriff’s Sgt. Jose Cardoza said interviews continue to take place, but couldn’t confirm whether more witnesses have specifically resulted from the vehicle.
“Reporters were saying, ‘Oh yeah, you guys were interviewing witnesses because of the car, just in general,” Caroza said. “But to this point, [detectives] haven’t put out information on who exactly they're interviewing.”

uh so...in other words, they're not sure if the red Jetta they have in custody with the black hood and sunroof and two different sets of non-matching front/rear rims is the same car as the red car pictured in the surveillance videos with the black hood, the sunroof and the two different sets of non-matching front/rear rims?

Those are my views. And yes, fate can be a cruel teacher.
I don't know the circumstance of the RSO guilty plea.
I don't know if he was found in a "compromising" position and a bitter spouse found a way to "get him" and get financial support for herself and their daughters.
I simply don't know. And I don't need to know because the case is about Sierra, not him.

BBM those were similar circumstances with a "friend" who is currently serving 8 years and will be an RSO for life... (he pled guilty to keep his daughters from testifying and his ex-wife did try to retract her statements but DA got hold of the case-she wanted child support-he had full custody per his daughter's choice) whether i feel he is truly guilty or not i cannot and will not take a chance of having him ever around my family. and while this man was not family-he was a very trusted friend, and so i have had experience with having to exterminate someone from my life because of RSO status. so yes..children first!!!

The first tip came from a caller about 700 miles away from Morgan Hill, where Sierra was last seen two months ago. A person in Scottsdale, Arizona reported a possible sighting of the red Volkswagen Jetta. The caller remembers seeing a similar vehicle before investigators located it in early May, Cardoza said.

Just watched again and still have to say ML is making the hair on back of my neck stand up, that smile and tone in her voice just rubs me wrong. IDK if she really has no idea of what happened or she thinks she has outsmarted LE but something is OFF. I also did not like the way JW stated that SL walked out of her house that morning, no one has confirmed she left at all.

The incongruence of what she is attempting to express as feeling with her body language, facial expressions, and language is hard to dismiss.
What I also so caught, was in LS is giving a general overview of the immediate area from where Sierra disappeared, one of the first descriptors she offers is 'migrant worker'.
I really hope that there is not a hint at a potential need for LE to try to pin it on a vulnerable person who can be linked, or not, is some way to an older model red jetta or simply that area.
I hope that there is the capacity in that county and SO to commit to pursuing the truth about what happened to Sierra, whatever it may be.

Well, my heart jumped into my throat when I read this. Hoping to find info about it; hope so much it's not Sierra. Whoever it is, hopefully it will bring closure to some family somewhere, once the person is identified.

Initially I was heartened by the "woman" in the title but the article itself said "female" and then the sinking feeling.

i would think they would know if it was Sierra by now-the discovery was this morning and she is at the top of missing persons. though i don't know what condition a body would be in after being in water for 2 months.

Thank you Honeysage for posting the link to AMW. I was able to watch the video.
Marlene is very odd to me - the way she smiles so large when discussing Sierra's lunch money and zipping the purse. Also, how she discusses their routine seems like she is talking about past days, not the day Sierra went missing.
I really would like to hear more about her boyfriend Rick.

They (LE) almost certainly know the identity of the body. If it is Sierra, or even if its not, they have things to do before they release the identity to the public, ie notification of next of kin, gathering evidence etc.

An alternate link for America's Most Wanted episode featuring Sierra LaMar:

EDIT: I was hoping this would be just the segment, but when I actually tried the link, it was still the full episode (sorry).

The fact that they have not said anything worries me. They certainly have Sierra's DNA so that part is taken care of. Honestly remember the Peterson case. She was in the Sf water and so was the baby. They could have dumped Sierra into many nearby waters that would lead to the bay. Alviso is an area that is channeled to the bay and redwood city. Idk really. Think of how shady LE has been in the past - they could make us wait before they tell us anything. I really am praying that it does not end this way but the probabilities are very very high at this point.

Tamta, when chickenbutt clicked on the quote button of honeysage's post above, it will print everything that is in honeysage's comments. That's how she got all the quotes together.

Good question.
Maybe the woman is from that county?
About Alviso, would you think the current would pull a body to the bridge from there?
It seems quite populated there.
What is the likely hood of remaining undetected?
Are there access roads in the reserve?

quote from article:
The body showed no signs of life
that makes it sound as if it was recent drowning, rather than a body that would be decomposed.

No access roads more like swamp land with trail along and picnic areas off of 101 but yeah could be possible
