Thank you for the tweets, Hoosgirl!

I'm surprised there aren't more people here. Am I on the right thread?

Maybe because it's a subforum, and not in trials? I'll go post a notice in the breaking news thread.
 
Thanks for all the links, finally we may find out exactly what happened to these young women,
and perhaps a little understanding as to why.
 
I hope with this case charges come for Morgan Harrington

"Matthew, wearing a dress shirt and yellow tie, entered his plea on all three counts in a soft-spoken voice.

Matthew was charged in the long-unsolved Fairfax case last year after his arrest in connection with Graham's disappearance yielded a hit on DNA evidence.

The victim in the Fairfax case has flown back from India to testify against him. She testified briefly at a pretrial hearing last week, saying that Matthew's face looked familiar to her, but that his hair, now in dreadlocks, was different in 2005. Defense lawyers have questioned whether the woman can reliably identify Matthew as her attacker, given the passage of time and pretrial publicity that has frequently shown Matthew's face in news reports."
