I was at NEA Hospital on Wednesday. I live about an hour from there but I'm there often. My daughter lives on the same block as St Bernard's Hospital. The two hospitals are less than a 15 minute ride apart.

BREAKING: Missing Craighead County woman's body found by volunteer

This makes me sick to my stomach. No one is off limits to the monsters that walk this earth. Dear Lord, how can anyone be so evil. I pray for Lavinda and her loved ones and that the perp is found and justice served.

 

[sallye818]

I am so sad and broken-hearted over this. Why would anyone need to kidnap and kill a 90-year-old woman? Just take what you want and go. Evil, pure and simple. Rest from your work here on Earth, precious Lavinda.
