You can try sending to Laura the crystal you want to be charged and then receive it back, but don't try to connect from outside with something that wasn't even near Laura. That's akin to leeching.
Even then, them sending the crystal to you, instead of you sending something and then receiving it back, seems like the safest way to achieve this. Because, what if they receive something from someone that wants to harm them, and then, attune it to themselves?
Furthermore, there's no way of telling what exactly you will connect to if you never saw Laura or talked to her (you need to precisely identify who are you. And even if you do connect to the group, doing so without the group's permission will make you taste on your own skin how effective the group's protection is.
After all, there's a reason why someone with hostile intent can't just "plug in".
You can try to do an experiment, though: those trusted enough could try having a talk with the group via Skype or something, and then, after the group agrees to allow access, try charging and "tuning" your crystal to them. Real time connection and hearing their voices is very important. There might also be a need to create some phrase that people will repeat while it's being "tuned" (to make sure the person's subconsciousness is affected).
Then see how it works.
However, if you do that, there needs to be an agreement among the group that nobody (absolutely nobody!) can do this on their own. Only as a group. This is to prevent a situation when a single member makes a mistake and allows (knowingly or not) for someone with negative intent to join (and i'm 100% certain that there will be attempts to do that, whether you will try this "remote attuning" idea at all or not).
Speaking of which, in case one of the crystals would get lost during the transport, or it gets stolen, i think just attuning it to the person in the way that the Cs mentioned should be enough to prevent someone with hostile intent to attune the crystal to themselves.
But i think Laura will know best what to do, and what not to do, in this case. :P
On a side note, remember digital watches? Those things have a quartz crystal in them. I'm pretty sure that one can be attuned too, but not exactly sure how the batteries, and the electric current, affects it.
