As some of you may have heard, our community was rocked this week over the tragic death of a little girl, Willow Long. Sunday morning, she was reported missing, and a massive search was done. Over a thousand searchers combed the hills, hollows, corn and bean fields for nearly 3 days during the hottest days of the year. Several suffered heat exhaustion. Several ponds were dragged. Unfortunately, she was found dead. Apparently, her uncle, who was supposed to be watching her while her mother was getting wasted at a bar, murdered her when she interrupted him "pleasuring" himself. He claims he chased her and that she fell on a stick pile, getting impaled in the neck. As she "twitched," he "Put her out of her misery" by cutting her throat and stabbing her several times. Later, he put her in a trash bag and hauled her away in his van. You can't imagine our utter horror that such a thing could happen in our quiet little region. Please pray for her and all in the area who are trying to cope with such senselessness.

My prayers too go out to Willow, as well all those affected by such a horrific event.

It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

There is evil in this world. Stay vigilant in the pursuit of good. All it takes for evil to flourish is for good men to sit in silence.
By the grace of God Willow no longer hurts or needs our protection. Her family surly does !

Please be sure that there are many here that are praying and shocked in disbelief. Most will not post, but that is because it is hard to know what to say or even feel. Anger and sadness conflict us.

Just saw her pic on FB, still going around that they are looking for her. Extremely saddened by it. RAH is correct in not knowing what to say.

It is difficult to respond to this type of event because it is barbaric.
When I first read this, it reminded me of a horrific event that happened a few years ago in a farming community that I have quite a few friends in. I knew the family.
Not going to go into this, but was hoping that one of the "many" Law Enforcement Agents would have had an M16 malfunction when this SOB came out!
Rot in Hell!!!
