The country club where she worked and was abducted from is less than a mile from where I work.

Horrible, horrible story.

RIP.

Too bad he didn't get to the bottom of the Canyon. He'll probably be found "not guilty" of ANYTHING.

he dumped that poor woman's body about two miles from my house. as a matter of fact, i drove past that field while she was in it that morning, just before the police found her.

but now the doucher is back in texas. for once, the fact that we like to kill criminals gives me comfort.
