Some background:
My cousin, who was like a little sister to me, and I started our families about the same time. Her oldest daughter was a very sweet and trusting young woman. She had tried to help the man who murdered her turn his life around. And she paid the price for her kindness.
The murderer left her 2 years old son, in his carseat, all alone to die from exposure or worse, at the murder scene. By the grace of God, a couple men looking for a spot to fish found him the next morning. They called the sherrif's dept, and found Stephie's body nearby. Her son is a healthy, thriving little boy now.
It took months to catch the murderer, only after the case was highlighted on America's Most Wanted was he captured. He was serving a sentence in Canada for B and E, so it took awhile to get him back here.
The trial is going on as we speak. His attorney was arguing for him to be able to wear a suit and tie instead of the prison orange uniform, and the prosecution won that one. For my cousins sake, and sanity, I just hope the trial doesn't drag on too much longer. The DNA evidence is there, but his attorneys (how he can afford 2, I have no idea) are pulling out all the stops.
I wonder what Ms. Saranwrap would say if her child or family member were killed??? Would she visit the killer in jail? Would she demand no execution take place??? Oh wait....she would most likely blame the police for not keeping the killer off the streets.....
