This Child Abuse Prevention Month, we are raising our voices for Oakley Carlson.
Oakley is a #missing child who was tragically failed by the Washington State Department of Children, Youth & Families. She deserves answers. She deserves accountability.

Task of the day: learning how to use ExpressScribe.
I’ve always been content with transcribing by ear/hand and taking a million years to do so. Curious to see how transcription software will change the game!

As community members interested in these cases, we need to remember:
1. Do no harm
2. Be respectful of victim and family boundaries
3. Be FACTUAL
4. Engage with empathy
5. Be the voice of impact and change

Highlights from a day of advocating for #mauramurray, who is still #missing 21 years later.
I had the privilege of meeting her fam at a vigil a couple of weeks ago and getting all of these materials. Now I’m out! @mediapressure.bsky.social
