Missing student's body found
Condolences
*sigh* damn. prayers.
details from WCAX-TV Burlington VT
- October 13, 2006
A sad ending to an exhaustive search. Channel 3 News has learned that police have found the body of Michelle Gardner-Quinn, the missing U-V-M student.
Official sources tell us that her body was found Friday near the Huntington Gorge in Richmond. We are told it was not in the gorge, but along Dugway Road.
No other details are known at this time.
Michelle has been missing since early Saturday morning. She was seen walking with a man who has been called 'cell phone man'. A man who loaned her his cell phone so she could call her friends. The police have not identified him, but Channel 3 News has learned he is 36-year old Brian Rooney who used to live in Richmond.
There is still no word why dozens of police officers, including a forensic lab, spent the day at a house being rehabilitated on Spruce Street in Burlington. Police spent much of the last two days there. most of the day.
Police have scheduled a press conference for 4:30 p.m. Friday.
I just saw the report...
Prayers up for her poor family....and for her to be killed on the weekend her family was there...is just so awful.
I assume the case just went from a Missing Persons to Homocide.
Oh no.
Oh man.
Prayers for the innocents and their families.
That goes for big cities,small towns and everywhere in between.
I hope they catch the monster her killed her. I would guess, however, that Vermont doesn't have the death penalty.
Very sad, I thought the police believed she was still alive yesterday and her sister was optimistic this morning. A freeper pointed out that the sister used past tense when referring to her sister despite her optimism.
acc. to google maps, Dugway Rd. is just south of Interstate 89...NW of Camel's Hump State Park
How terribly sad. Prayers of comfort to those who loved her.
I thought she was a student at the University of Vermont.
...about 18 mi. from the UVM campus. Areas near the UVM campus were searched but apparently the body was found near
Richmond/Bolton
2AM? My dear, departed grandmother used to tell me, "Nothing good ever happens after midnight" whenever I used to whine about my curfew.
She was, but she is originally from Arlington, VA.
Is this the Vermont student?
I was afraid of this. Prayers up.
Yes, it's the Vermont student. So sad, but I had a feeling...
