With a $10,000 reward on the line and Bay Area sports stars stepping in to help, the Morgan Hill community continues to hope for a safe return of Sierra LaMar, 15, who has been missing since March 16.

The word “slut” strikes miscellaneous cords.

Two renowned experts who have spent their entire careers profiling violent, shady criminals and analyzing human behavior say that Sierra LaMar’s likely kidnapper – or kidnappers – probably stalked the missing teen before grabbing her from the street outside her home, and that the victim’s personality is likely the polar opposite of her captor’s - an attribute that could end up saving her life. 

The KlaasKids Foundation is asking users of social media Internet sites to participate in a 24-hour online vigil for Sierra LaMar, the Sobrato High School sophomore who has been missing from her north Morgan Hill home for 17 days. 

In the end it wasn’t rain 825 runners had to deal with during Sunday’s 29th Wildflower Run, but a frigid, 35 mph wind.

Residents are invited to a community march through downtown Morgan Hill to raise awareness of missing teen Sierra LaMar in order to bring her home quickly and safely, according to organizer Dori Prado.

The plea hearing for the five suspects accused of killing Tara Romero, 14, and trying to kill three other teens Nov. 4, 2011 was postponed.

Audiences at Morgan Hill’s CineLux Cinemas last weekend were full of glee for the world premiere of the movie “Gleeful,” a musical comedy filmed entirely in the South Valley and featuring a cast of more than a hundred young actors from the region.

Divers from the Santa Clara County Sheriff’s Office spent the afternoon searching a group of percolation ponds along Coyote Creek for evidence that might lead them to the whereabouts of Sierra LaMar, 15, who has been missing since March 16.

Another search-and-rescue effort to find missing 15-year-old Sierra LaMar is scheduled for today, and will include sheriff’s office dive teams searching underwater in South County reservoirs.
