They very well COULD relate to Suzy, if they ever heard about her being missing. Not everyone's disappearance gains the attention that a Natalee type gets. It's not that they don't care or value the Suzy's. They just aren't aware.

Yes, that is true. As I've said, it's a fact that a girl like Natalee will get more media attention than a girl that is average or non white or from a less June Cleaver-esque background. I interpret Dr. Phil and KSig as saying that even when Amy Average does make the news, she isn't as likely to stay there since people don't care as much because she's so average/non white/from a low income family/any other of these factors that make it hard to get media attention, and that on a deep level people do place others on an actual scale of value as humans, which is a whole different point.
