Found Deceased AZ - Isabella Grogan-Cannella, 8, Bullhead City, 2 September 2014 - #1

I think he has a penchant for little children. His fb timeline is practically all photos of random children. He disgusts me.

Thank goodness this killer had such limited intellectual and financial resources. I'm glad the police were able to catch him quickly.

Notice that in one of the FB photos (reprinted in MSM) he is wearing a shirt that says "SKIN" (as in skinhead) with an iron cross. Apparently a white supremacist to boot.

No, that's a sportware logo. http://www.skinindustries.com/

"Isabella was discovered wearing the same green, ruffled, sparkly tank top she had on when she was last seen. When found, she did not have any clothing on her lower half, according to court documents. Williamson declined to say whether she had been sexually assaulted."

Okay, I've checked everyones court dockets...they read the same as in a lot of other cases I've followed. Warning, red flag, clear as day to me.

RIP Bella

No R*** charge. That's encouraging although kind of strange, right? What's the motive to murder a child without abusing them first ?

That may change; there have been a couple of reports in msm that she was found without her shorts and underpants.

Also, it appears Bella was home with JR and her grandmother.

The distraught man had been questioned by police, along with Isabella’s family. The mother’s boyfriend had apparently gone to the store the night she disappeared, according to sources. That left the girl with a grandmother and a family friend, said Lyon.

Right now it's hard to sort out fact from rumor or mistakes in msm reporting. In any case I suspect there's a lot more that will come out before this case is done.

Oops! Cross-posted with you. Yes, more reports are saying the same. I wish we had access to the court docs.

So mom saw her in bed at 1130 pm, but Bella and her sister played hide and seek with Justin while mom was gone. Mom must have left after seeing Bella in bed. Not sure I believe this. Reminds me of Willow Long and the Pop Tart story her mother told.

This guy has no car right? IIRC, he walked to Walmart, and police found him walking on HWY 95. I had assumed he drove Bella to the river, but that has to be wrong. He walked there with her?

I'm guessing this is close to where Bella was found, and not the exact location...simply because it looks like just rocks, and dry soil.

The locations are approximately one-half mile from one another.

I'm with you. Early reports said Bella was last seen in bed by family, then it was in the house. Later reports said she was playing hide and seek, presumably in the house, but neighbors reported seeing her playing hide and seek outside before she went home for the night. And was the grandmother there or not? If so did she not notice Bella was missing?

I can see why LE isn't ruling out future arrests. Even with reporting mistakes it sounds like police were told an, um, evolving story.

I'm sure the game of Hide and Seek was Rector's idea. He needed someway to get the girls separated without raising suspicion. Just because the girls were in bed when the mother left, doesn't mean they were asleep. He came up with the idea knowing that Mom would be gone for a couple of hours, that was his window of opportunity. Send one of the girls off to hide, then grab the other one. Who knows how long the older sister hid before she realized something was wrong, long enough for him to be well down the street no doubt. The older sister didn't do anything about it until her Mom returned. She probably really didn't know what to do, actually.

A police report released today by the Bullhead City Police Department said several adults were at the residence Monday evening and decided to go to Walmart at about 11 p.m. They left two children with their grandmother, Freddie Nicholson and Rector, who was downstairs. The report said the grandmother was upstairs and two children were playing hide-and-seek downstairs. When one girl went to the bathroom and came back out, the other child and Rector were missing.

A search of the house turned up nothing and the adults were called. They returned home and could not find Isabella or Rector. They called police.

Seriously if everyone in the house knew who had her I really hope they told the police and weren't trying to cover for this guy!

Rector was found near Highway 95 and Walmart about 3:20 a.m. Tuesday. Police learned he had stolen a pair of shoes, underwear and a shirt from the store. He admitted to leaving his old shoes in the store and hiding his old short along the highway. Detectives recovered video of the theft along with the shirt and shoes.

Sadly, I suspect additional charges will be forthcoming when the ME's report is completed.

IMO the only reason he'd need to steal a pair of underwear is if her DNA could be found on the ones he previously had on...especially considering underwear is worn underneath clothes. Sick *advertiser censored*.
