“At a community gathering held one week after Michelle’s disappearance, a member of the Hayward Police Department stated that law enforcement would do everything in their power to bring Michelle home. However, over the weekend, three of the six personnel assigned to Michelle’s case went on vacation and the lead investigator was replaced with someone who has no experience working on missing persons cases.”
Community members are invited to attend. The gathering will be from 7:30 to 8:30 p.m. at Mountain Eden Park, Tennyson Road and Hesperion Boulevard, Hayward.
