METALLICA Adds $50,000 To Reward In Case Of Missing Virginia Tech Student - Oct. 25, 2009
METALLICA has joined the efforts to help locate Morgan Harrington — who disappeared during the band's concert in Charlottesville one week ago — by adding $50,000 to the $100,000 reward being offered for information leading to her whereabouts. Also joining the search is the FBI, who will be able to investigate tips from around the country in the case of the 20-year-old Virginia Tech student missing since she became separated from her friends at the October 17 show.

According to CBSNews.com, Harrington's father, Dan Harrington, told CBS-TV's "Early Show Saturday Edition" co-anchor Erica Hill investigators were to meet with him and his wife, Gil Harrington, on Saturday to bring them up-to-date on the search for their daughter.

"We're hopeful that they would have some morsel of news for us," Gil Harrington said to Hill.

Dan Harrington told Hill his "co-workers have raised $100,000 for a reward, and actually, just [on Friday], I received a call from METALLICA and they're working on increasing that to $150,000."

According to Rockville Magazine, Fox News' Laura Ingle reported yesterday that METALLICA frontman James Hetfield "made a phone call to the father of Morgan Harrington [on Friday to] offer the band's support and they are putting up all the information of Morgan Herrington's disappearance on their web site. [The band] is also offering up $50,000 to go into the reward to help find Morgan Harrington."

Police are asking anyone with information to call the Morgan Harrington Tip Hotline at (434) 352-3467. There is also more information at a web site, FindMorgan.com.

Not a Metallica fan but honestly they are damned if they do and damned if they don't in this situation. They have at least stepped up and done what they could which at least makes them better than corroder who thinks he is helping by making snide comments. Someone is missing, maybe dead, lets not make the thread about taking cheap shots ok?

I hope those individuals have a heart and bring her back safely to her parents. I wish there was a way that we could prevent this from happening to anyone. It doesn't matter how old you are anything can happen these days.
Good luck to you, Mr. & Mrs. Harrington

I'm sure if Metallica added $1 million dollars to the reward fund people would still be taking shots at them.

I hope she is found soon, alive and well. My thoughts to her family and friends.

"They made more than that the night the girl disappeared. Just the publicity alone regarding this is worth $50,000"

Yeah.....Metallica should've known in advance one of their fans would go missing after one of their shows so that they could've saved that extra 50 grand, the selfish bastages. Re-read your post and realize how stupid it sounds.

So what? At least the band is taking an active role in attempting to discover what has happened to this girl. You too are a fucking idiot.
.........

So much misfortune (in this world) and, still there are people who take delight in standing up as assholes. However it goes, hopefully the girl's parents and all concerned will soon know what happened to her. Being in the dark on such matters is often worse than not being so.

I'm a huge fan of Metallica and have always had a great respect for them. They're one of the few bands out there that you can tell they treat their fans like family. I've found a higher respect for them today because of their efforts. God bless them and Morgan. I hope she's found soon and this story has a happy ending.

metallica is offering money for another person's safe being and safe home coming, i don't know why people even try to bitch over something that's so priceless. even though metallica COULD go and ignore this, they're doing this for not only a fan but a person because they care for their fans and for the general people. metallica rules!

...I saw the title and said to myself...

1) Somebody who isn't doing shit is going to complain that Metallica isn't doing enough.

2) Someone else is going to call out Mustaine even though he has NOTHING to do with this-and it will be completely wrong and tasteless.

I REALLY wanted to be wrong...I think I'll wander elsewhere for a while...save your flames or whatever...I'm out...

I'm not even a Metallica fan, but.....

Everyone posting comments like, "she's cute. kind of. there's something disturbingly mannish about her face. still, I'd do her."

And things like that.....what the fuck is wrong with you?!?! There's a family out there, and friends, who love her, and are fucking worried. She's a person, you piece of shit!

For all any of us know, she could be dead somewhere, because of ---fill in the blanks, who knows what happened to her.

But you think it's a joke, and even though it's just Blabbermouth, a post on a random website, how do you know someone very close to her doesn't check this site?

You're scum to post something like that. You think the internet is yours to exploit or something, and it's all for you? Fuck you.

I'm drunk, but that pisses me off a lot. People like that give people a lack of faith in humanity.

A girl is missing, and unfortunately, maybe dead. You discuss whether you'd have sex with her or not, among the other same types of posts.....You're all fucking stupid.

I hope she's found.

You know it was probably some drunk piece of shit in the parking lot. They should change this lockout policy they do at these concerts. Men are not the only ones who go to shows. Very dangerous for a young girl locked out then if they have to wait for friends for a ride or whatever. This should seriously be examined.
