The uncle of a missing Utah 5-year-old girl was charged with her murder Wednesday.
At a news conference Wednesday, Logan Police Chief Gary Jensen told reporters that 21-year-old Alex Whipple had been charged with aggravated murder, child kidnapping, obstruction of justice and desecration of a human body.
Elizabeth "Lizzy" Shelley was reported missing Saturday morning. Her body has not been found, but Jensen said investigators had evidence, including DNA, linking Whipple to the girl's murder. The desecration charge stems from alleged actions by Whipple to move, remove or conceal Lizzy's body.

According to the chief, traces of Lizzy's blood were found on Whipple's watch and sweatshirt, as well as on a knife consistent with one that was reported missing from the Shelley family home. Jensen added that the knife was broken, in a manner "which is indicative of dramatic use."
Jensen added that investigators also found a PVC pipe covered in blood and a teal skirt with white lace that was buried under dirt and bark and was "consistent with one that was described that belonged to Lizzy.”
Logan City Police said Whipple has been “uncooperative” throughout their investigation. He was initially arrested Saturday on a probation violation and has been held without bail since.

I believe they still have the firing squad in Utah, if convicted this dirtbag deserves it.
Let his own family “take care” of him.
I can drive to where he’s held. Bring what’s needed and supply the trigger pull. My prayers up for the little girl.
Some people just need killing..............
She is in Heaven. Her family needs the prayers..........
My thoughts too.
Some people are so evil they should just be put down.
Amen.
Prayers for Lizzy and family.
When are we ever going to treat these heinous crimes as such and immediately execute these bastards?
Oh God, that sweet little face and what she must have gone through. May our precious Lord hold her tight and make those memories go away, and may He bring peace to her family.
All the reason never leave a female child unattended with male relatives. Though it looks like he grabbed her while everyone was sleeping. May she Rest in Peace.

Thet knew he was bad news, The family didn’t want him around. Too bad they didn’t throw him out on his ass.
Thet=They
Huh? Maybe your relatives, not mine. I could leave my toddler daughters alone with my two adult brothers, --their uncles, and have 100 percent confidence that they would not molest them.
