"What has this world come to?"

We have let the scum in while trying to keep God out of community life. We have devalued life by slaughtering millions of infants in the womb. We have allowed liberals to run amok weilding ridiculous power in the name of political correctness which has corrupted our country like a cancer. The innocent are destroyed and we protect the "rights" of the guilty. We don't put these monsters away because the testimony of children is unreliable. We have allowed the courts to become a theater of the ridiculous. The evil and disgusting are the most popular subjects of entertainment. I could go on, but I don't think it is necessary.

Police Find Body of Missing Missouri Girl

Fri Jul 26, 5:45 PM ET

ST. LOUIS (Reuters) - The body of a 6-year-old Missouri girl who disappeared on Friday was found in a nearby abandoned glass factory and a 24-year-old transient has been arrested in the apparent murder, police said.

"We believe that we found what appears to be the body of Casey Williamson in an abandoned glass factory," a police official said. The body was covered with debris, but the cause of death was not immediately revealed.

St. Louis County police said they arrested Johnny Johnson, described as a "local transient," in the murder and he was cooperating with authorities.

Johnson had stayed in the home where the family was staying in Valley Park southwest of St. Louis near the Meramec River.

The case drew attention nationwide because of a recent series of child abductions in the United States that have received extensive media coverage.

The girl's mother, Angela, told reporters that she, her husband, the missing girl and other family members had spent the night at a neighbor's home.

She said she was separated from her husband but he had been living nearby in an attempt at reconciliation and to help her care for their family. She said the child had spent the night sleeping in the same room as her father.

The father was preparing to fix the little girl a bowl of cereal for breakfast but went out for a moment and the child was gone when he returned, the mother said

(KSDK, NBC) LOCAL UPDATESuspect in Custody

SNIP...Authorities haven't conclusively identified the body yet, but they believe it belongs to the young girl. Police say they have made an arrest in the case, 24-year old transient Johnny Johnson. Johnson had also stayed at Williamson's neighbor's house last night. Chief Battelle says Johnson will face murder charges, but he is cooperating with police. Battelle says it appears that Johnson is the only person involved in the crime.

Earlier in the day, Johnson was reportedly being questioned as a witness. Police became interested in Johnson after it was learned that he returned to the home where he and the Williamson's had spent the night, all wet. He reportedly said he’d gone swimming in the Meramec River.
