South County Cindy Facebook Page Shut Down, 'New' Site Takes its Place?

Update: The South County Cindy Facebook page with 14,000-plus likes is now back up.

Recently Patch reported on a Facebook page devoted to keeping track of a woman known as South County Cindy, a middle-aged woman who apparently wanders all over South County.

The page was up to more than 14,000 Likes on Tuesday. That page was apparently shut down sometime Tuesday evening, and a site with the same name, and currently just over 100 Likes is now live.

The ‘new’ South County Cindy site seems to be dealing with the same issues regarding its purpose and its effect on Cindy as the first site. As the original South County Cindy site administrator said, folks either love or hate the site.

The administrator of the previous site said he wanted the site to focus on helping anyone who needs help, not just Cindy.

“We will continue to keep you updated with our famous Cindy, but she isn't the ONLY one out there who could use a "pick me up" to get back on there feet. Let's see how (many) people who can get a pic of helping anybody in need!! If you can't get a pic, just mention it and you will be recognized!!!”
