Family of Jacque Sue Waller, who has been missing since June 1, appeared Thursday on ABC's "Good Morning America," the first time Waller's case was broadcast nationally.

Now FOX News has broadcast the story, and Ruby Rawson, Waller's mother, said late Thursday that "Today" on NBC and "Inside Edition" on CBS are planning segments for the weekend. They'll likely run Saturday, she said.

The family has finally gotten what they were hoping for, she added. They're praying the coverage leads to something new in the case.

"We're very happy about it," Rawson said. "We're hoping somebody that was traveling through the area, if they see this, might remember something they saw."

Waller was last seen June 1 in Jackson and her SUV was found abandoned near Fruitland along Interstate 55. On Monday, a Cape Girardeau County resident found Blue Cross Blue Shield business cards belonging to Waller near a mailbox along Highway 177, less than 10 miles from where Waller's car was found.

Waller's husband, Clay Waller, is still a person of interest in her disappearance. His attorney for matters concerning custody hearings released a statement this week, as Clay Waller continues to decline interviews with the media.

"Clay Waller misses his wife and hopes she is found OK. He had no thing to do with her disappearance and sympathizes with her family," said Scott Reynolds, Waller's attorney.

As police continue their search for Jacque Waller, her friends and the Community United Effort for Missing Persons have organized the largest community search to date for Saturday. CUE is a not-for-profit staffed by volunteers. Formed 17 years ago, families and law enforcement call them in to assist in missing persons cases.

People interested in helping search for Jacque Waller should meet at 8 a.m. at the Rhodes 101 Stop in Fruitland. Organizers would like at least 200 people participating.
