Whatever...something like that. It would be planned out. Use Facebook and Twitter to spread the word, get maps and designate people/teams to roads, etc, etc.

With the police already having laid charges, they must be confident their case is somewhat court ready. And they're asking rural residents to check their own properties.

Would a community search like the one above do more harm than good? (ie: evidence)

I'm out of town until Thursday, but would really like to start working on something like this and plan it for Saturday IF there were no possible negative implications to the case. .

Good idea or should it be left as good intentions and not be done?
Unless the police ask for volunteers stay out of it, you don't have a knowledge of forensic requirements and chances are you'd just get in the way. If the police want help they'll ask for it and train the volunteers.
