It all started on a Wednesday evening, when Elizabeth never came home after leaving a friends house on foot. The police were called after she never showed up. The family described her as shy, and that she was afraid of the dark. Their immediate reaction was that something bad had happened, and they were correct.
There are still many details to come in this case. The police were able to track the killer through 'written evidence' that has yet to be revealed.
On October 24th, 2009 a 15 year old was arrested as a suspect in the murder of this 9 year old girl. Under current law, the suspect will start out in the Juvenile system and if warranted, be moved to the adult system. The charges are First Degree Murder.
This 9 year old will never have another birthday, never see another day, and has family and loved ones who have to deal with that void everyday. This 9 year old was taken from this earth by a 15 year old individual who should and shall be held accountable for their actions.
I completely agree with the writer. I am from missouri and I have nieces who are both of these kids ages... I hope the 15 yr old pays for what she did. If that little girl cant have another birthday the the 15 yr old should spend the rest of hers behind bars.
