I think that one of the reasons that its still in the media is that they are an affluent, articulate couple, who proably have someone behind the scenes advising them on how to use the media. I can't imagine many people think 'I must go see the Pope' if their child was abducted.

I also think, had this been a working class couple, low income etc, this would have been out of the media long ago, and they would also have been heavily criticised for leaving the children alone. As OB says, "Anyone heard about a 12 year old girl that's been missing from Winchester, Hants for the past 4 weeks now? No? Thought not...."
