‘Deep grief’: Jacob Wetterling’s remains found
Twincities.com ^ | September 3, 2016

Posted on 09/03/2016 11:49:31 AM PDT by Coronal

Patty Wetterling has confirmed the remains of her son Jacob Wetterling, who has been missing for almost 27 years, have been found.

The Jacob Wetterling Center, which Wetterling’s parents founded in 1990 to educate the public on child abductions, posted a statement to its Facebook page Saturday morning.

“We are in deep grief. We didn’t want Jacob’s story to end this way. In this moment of pain and shock, we go back to the beginning. The Wetterlings had a choice to walk into bitterness and anger or to walk into a light of what could be, a light of hope. Their choice changed the world,” the statement said. “Our hearts are heavy, but we are being held up by all of the people who have been a part of making Jacob’s Hope a light that will never be extinguished. It shines on in a different way. We are, and we will continue to be, Jacob’s Hope. Jacob, you are loved.”

So much pain, suffering, sickness, evil in this world. Wish He wasn’t so patient.

I so admire his mother Patty for keeping this case in the forefront and in doing so worked so tirelessly for children’s welfare against these demonic predators. I’ll always remember Jacob and through the years feeling so sad for his family. Burn the devil that did this!!

reading about this monster infuriates me...boys were being attacked for some time...they investigated him at the time of Jacob's abduction but couldn't make the connection...

all these years you have to know that this pervert has attacked other boys...all these years...

we MUST start taking child molestation and child pornography seriously....we must stop thinking that its "just" a sex crime....

And this is one reason that Homosexuals have been universally despised for the last several thousand years. In their dance with insanity they have no boundaries.

About 40% of all child molestations are male, meaning the abuser is a homosexual.

They are 1.8% of the population but 40% of all child molesters.

Not saying you’re wrong, but women do molest kids too, and some of their victims are male.

Okay, admittedly some of that 40% number has to be cases such as that, but by far the vast majority were molested by males.

Also women molest girls too. Not many people seem to be aware that "Cher"'s daughter Chastity was molested for years by Cher's Lesbian baby sitter.

Any wonder why Chastity is so screwed up?

And there are men who kidnap and abuse little girls as well.

Homosexuality is a mental illness, specifically it is denying the biological reality of the sex one is born with, and ensuring survival of humanity via procreation.

It is truly ironic that those who criticize this claim to belive in and understand the theory of evolution.

Not only very difficult — impossible — without the overt assistance of the Lord.

When He sacrificed for salvation, He meant it.

We may or may not penalize their earthly bodies, but we dare not wish even the worst wretch to hell, because we receive in the measure we give.

It is ultimately a spiritual trap, a snare. Our existence itself is spiritual, and this vice, this evil, delves into some of the most fundamental aspects of that.

According to two sources with direct knowledge of the case, the remains were recovered after Heinrich, who is being held on federal child pornography charges, agreed to cooperate with the FBI and state authorities.

I am curious to know how they got this creep to give up the location of the boy’s body.

They had him on child porn charges. Hard time but nothing compared to murder.

My best guess is that the police found he had pictures of boy in his collection.

He would be stupid to keep pictures of the boy especially after they had talked to him in connection to the crime back in 1990. But kidnapping is not exactly something smart people do.

What are the two worst things they used to say a politician could be found with? A dead girl or a live boy? (Yes, the malefactor isn’t a politician. Just sayin)

You can’t say that truth on many web site comment sections without getting it deleted by moderators and being banned altogether if one keeps it up.

He knows best, exactly how patient to be.

I am very grateful his poor body was found, so that there might be an end to the wondering. Sounds like they got the culprit, too, although there are not just laws at present for dealing with these “men.”

...

Just about every serial killer is a sexual deviant. A high percentage are homosexuals and/or pederasts, a higher percentage than in the general population.
