It is now November 2011 and still no new on my missing sister: Janet Gail Henry If you had information would you have the heart to call the tip line?
I know my sister: Janet’s daugher Debra would be relieved. Her moms been missing since she was over 12 yrs old. Just imagine what it would be like if you had someone that young wondering. What happend to my mom.? Who took her? Can you help me? I know Debra crys for her mom. Her mom did’nt even get to see her graduate from high school. She got her criminology Diploma and is now married. HEr mom should have been here for all of this but is’nt cause some evil monster took her. If you know of anyone who has information please come forward for my nieces sake. It’s like a living night mare for a young girl like Debra to have to go through this. I wish i had reward money but i don’t. if i did i’d put it up and I guarantee s omeone would come forward. But till then we wait. Thanks for taking the time to read this. I have a fb page up on Janet Gail HEnry.

Comment on Downtown Eastside Women’s Centre and Women’s Memorial March Committee Object to Missing Women’s Commission’s Latest Amicus Proposal by Stephen Blumstein

Yes, this is just a feeble attempt on the part of the Liberals to pretend to lend legitimacy to the dozen or so women’s groups, in order to represent some sort of fairness about the inquiry process. Without freedom of information access, especially court records from women who have laid missing persons reports or complaints against Picton, this process remains a sham. As per s.1 of the Charter, it brings the C.J.S. into disrepute, and protects the very police who may have been complicit with Picton in the first place. Not to mention the ostracization of Kim Rossmo, whose research could have saved many women’s lives.

It’s sure heart wrenching about the missing and murdered women.
My sister Janet Gail Henry is one of the missing women from the downtown eastside!” I fought for yrs to find her and now all of this is happening.
Sometimes I feel like I Can’t take it anymore. I just want to find my sister so my family and I can rest our hearts and our minds. It’s the worst thing in the world to have a missing one not knowing if the police will have answers. It feels like they never will. It’s 14 yrs now. I keep hoping and keep on praying for anwers. Mabe it will come eventually.
