Authorities have detained a person of interest in the search for Jessica Lunsford, the 9 year old girl that has been missing from a small town just north of Tampa since late February.
I hate that we still have not found this little girl. I hate that this has happened again. I've said it over and over again.....don't f*ck with the babies.
Yeah - this guy is a "person of interest". Get his ass back here to Florida and get some answers.
Posted by Tammi at March 18, 2005 07:54 AMThat is such a strange case... I'm of two minds - and I'm hoping they'll be finding out something.
It could be that the guy did it - in which case he's a creep who needs to be drawn and quartered (and yes I mean that literally). 'nuff said without getting graphic.
Or it could be that he didn't do it and he knows the cops are desperate... and he'll be railroaded. Last I heard, the reason they were looking for him was because he was a registered sex offender and lived in the area.
Now quite honestly - if you were in that position and knew you didn't do it - wouldn't that scare the bejesus out of you? It's not unknown that the cops will make a case fit a person so they have someone to charge. Especially if that someone already has a nicely dirty background for them to pile on to.
So - we have to wait and see what happens. If the cops have anything or if they're just blowing hot air because they aren't any closer to solving this than they were before. I just don't want the wrong person brought to "justice" for this. No matter how disgusting the latest guy might be - if he didn't do it - then the real culprit walks if he gets charged!
