If Garcia was "...charged with kidnapping, harboring a runaway, obstructing justice and child endangerment", one might logically wonder about the perceived uncertainty of the DA who is now reportedly going "...to see if formal charges will be filed against Garcia." Thus far, the reported "facts" of this case beg more questions than the answers they provide. This article does not state whether Garcia was booked into jail pending arraignment, or merely charged informally and released on his own recognizance, with or without bail, since he reportedly "...is a father himself." But considered in light of these initial charges, the latter would seem implausible, at least to my way of thinking. But because the search for Brooklyn would most likely still be ongoing had Garcia not released her to make her own rescue call, I will continue to wonder why the Amber Alert system was not timely activated. Perhaps the proper protocol for its timely activation and how that determination is initially made and by whom simply needs to be better understood by the public at large (including me in particular), which might preclude me from making future public rants. But at the same time, I strongly sense I'm not the only grandfather out here who felt concerned about Brooklyn's welfare during that ordeal in the face of those limited facts, knowing how I would feel if it were my own grand-daughter in that situation. So I guess I just felt compelled to make some noise about it because there was little I could do to help in any meaningful way. And for whatever it might be worth, I must respectfully withdraw my previous rant suggesting that the Utah Coordinator for the Amber Alert system be fired. Perhaps he could explain to us all some day why his perceived inactions (by me) were justified. I'd promise to be a real good student and listen carefully. Heaven forbid that I should learn something new here upon this high hill of my old age. :)
