Brianna Denison's killer obviously needs to get caught. I wonder how LE knows for sure that the black pink panther thong does not belong to victim.. Could it belong to another victim, dead or alive who is not yet identified?

Who in my life would have a complete inventory of all my panties? Even my lover has not seen my superman undies.

D.P.: There appears to be an unwanted file attached to your linked news story web site. At least, my anti-program picked up something.

If Dallas didnt have enough to worry about w/ the serial rapist:

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/23157442/

"Dallas police stepped up patrols in a Dallas neighborhood after a mother found an intruder in her 8-year-old daughter's bedroom.

... I pushed the door a little bit more, flicked on the lights, and a person was right there kneeled down on her bed," she said"


and a few days earlier:

http://www.dallasnews.com/ shared...n1.4570a69.html
"A Richardson mother is calling her two young daughters heroes after they scared away an intruder who attacked her in their home early Tuesday.

Lakeisha Q. Wadley, 32, said she was awakened in the second-floor bedroom of her home in the 700 block of Royal Crest Drive by a man on top of her who had put a pillow over her face. She said the man beat her as he tried to suffocate her, knocking out a tooth. "

Possibly the same guy?

A story getting a lot of attention this morning in Europe is regarding the alarming number of teen suicides in Wales in the past year. This week a girl was found hung in the woods; people said she was happy and upbeat when they saw her the night before and had plans for the future.

This is a tragic trend that the region needs to focus attention on, but I can't help but wonder for some (not all) of these cases, could there be a serial killer working the area? (I will be the first to acknowledge that my imagination may be working over time here!)

In the U.S, there's a game that kids play to try and asphyxiate themselves and they end up killing themselves. As far as I know, it's not done from a tree. But, it gets misclassified as a suicide.

There is an interesting discusion about the Boca Raton killer on websleuths on the "Crimes in the News" thread.

Another woman and child had been abducted with the same MO as the mother and 7 yr.-old daughter that were murdered at that mall. The survivor of the earlier attack is suing the mall.
