ORANGE PARK, Florida - Detectives searching for a missing
7-year-old north Florida girl say they have found the body of a
young girl in a Georgia landfill.
Clay County Sheriff Rick Beseler said the body found Wednesday
had not been identified but the parents of Somer Thompson have been
notified.
Somer vanished on her mile-long walk home from school Monday in
Orange Park, near Jacksonville.
Thompson said Somer was squabbling with another child, and her
sister told her to stop. The girl got upset, walked ahead of the
group and wasn't seen again.
Orange Park is a suburb of Jacksonville just south of
Jacksonville Naval Air Station. The area where the girl disappeared
is a heavily populated residential area with homes, apartment
complexes and condominiums.

Child predators,molesters when brought to justice do not receive sentences that fit the crime as far as I am concerned.Until the Judges and Juries deal out some hard justice for these people it will continue.

I see where the Sheriff now says it appears that the body is that of the missing little girl! Bless her heart!Makes you want too start rounding all these child predators up and put them all together somewhere that you wouldn’t ever have to worry about them again.
