Perhaps I should have posted that the other way around. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to indicate race was "the" deciding factor. Whichever way it goes, it seems *to me* that a way of life, or perhaps, a role in life that was not chosen but was, IDK, *assumed*? means that these women were not taken seriously as victims, at first. Then, the pearl-clutchers don't want to know, that these women "weren't one of us" kicks in, so they are overlooked.
Does that make sense? I hope I'm explaining myself clearly, without resorting to stereotypes too much. All I see from this thread is that to be poor, perhaps involved with drugs, perhaps to be involved in prostitution, perhaps to be from the "wrong side of the tracks" seems to be an excuse for the murder of all these women and *someone* got away with it, because no one really cared.
This makes me incredibly sad.
I hope I explained myself better.
