Ohio official questions Nida fundraising role in missing girl case
A.P.R.I.L. Rick Ellis urged Lorain County prosecutors to decide if Nida or his staff are professional fund raisers under Ohio law which bans such groups from distributing missing child information. Det. Ray Riley noted legal operation could aid searches but requires organization. Police objected when A.P.R.I.L. checked leads on Angela Hicks without sharing with authorities. Nida said only a national HQ officer assisted, who has returned to Indiana. Lt. John McLean said police continue to pursue sightings while Angela Hicks may be with friends in Elyria.
