I guess so, maybe she had vibes or something....I hope not, I hope she never had an inkling he was going to hurt her and Connor.

This is OT, but while I am online with you all today and knowing the power of prayer we can muster on these Jon Benet,Danielle, Laci, and other true crimes forums I'd like to ask you all for prayers of safe keeping for my 18 year old great niece who landed in Baghdad 3 weeks ago.

Her name is Jessica and she went into the army right out of high school. She actually got a sharp shooter medal while in training. She might need it as she is a convoy driver just like the girl's and guys who got ambushed, killed and kidnapped earlier in the war.

She was very anxious to go and serve her country, her mother is my closest niece and I can't imagine how she is coping, but she is very proud of Jess, as am I. Except I am very worried about her.

I wish we could surround her and all the rest of the servicemen and women with a cloak of prayer protection. That's a prayer thread we could use, spectre. :-)

Here's Jessica's picture the day she shipped out for Iraq:
