Its been a weird day. Police dogs, police cars, vans, investigators, drills, and men shoveling... this is what I woke up to this morning and found across the street from our house. They were looking for a body.. one that had been buried in the yard 25 years ago.
The body was of a 10 year old girl, and she had been murdered by a man named Bill, who confessed of the murder today. He was a sex offender who moved across from where we live after he had got out of jail many years ago. He lived there until about the time I was in high school, then he moved. My parents always knew that he had been in jail and that he was creepy, so of course they had always told me to stay away, but gah... So yes folks, I lived across the street from a murderer/child molestor/sex offender for my entire childhood! And I have been living across the street from a dead body my entire life! HOW WONDERFUL.
Its really awful that he wasn't put in jail until today, and that for years and years the family of that girl never knew what happened to her. Gahhh.
