That was Jessica Lunsford, the 9 year old from Homassasa, Fl. Her murderer stated that she was buried alive, but experts weren't sure if she was alive when buried or minutes before (she was in a plastic bag that she tried to get out of, her fingers managed to poke through the bag despite being tied together.)
reading this absolutely broke my heart. The terror she must have felt in those last few minutes.
not to take the focus off of little Nevaeh, but i will NEVER forget reading about Jessica. I thought the same thing, that she must have just been so petrified. it's horrible. all of the circumstances around the case, so many screw ups and missed chances, it's just so horribly sad. i was flooded with memories of her story when Jaycee Dugard was found because Garrido reminds me of Couey...looks and perverted all.
