I couldn't post about it before the ABI released this info but I got a call back from my source this afternoon and he told me that they had a suspect but had not apprehended him. That was the reason we weren't getting any firm updates. I was aware that he was out on bond for the violations but I was NOT AWARE of the priors in 2008. I don't think my source was either or he would have told me. (My source is not with the ABI.)
I am so LIVID I can barely think, speak or type. I cannot believe this guy has been out on the loose since 2008 AND THEN HE WAS RELEASED ON BOND on the current charges he is facing?!? God help the Judge who released this creep on a low bond. He better go ahead and retire because his career is over around here.
I don't know the connection to the family.
I know that the residents were raising cane for info to be released. They wanted to know if there was a killer on the loose or if this was a domestic type case. The heat was on big time for the ABI to finally release some info. I really believe the ABI thought they could apprehend him sooner than later.
This guy has NOTHING to lose now. He will be facing the death penalty. He knows it, I know it and every Alabamian knows it. He is extremely dangerous and I hope no one else dies before this is all said and done.
My emotions are all over the place. I'm SO sad....but I am mad as hell too.
My heart just breaks for everyone. God Bless these families. This should not have happened.
Oh, and if Nancy Grace comes on talking about the "babysitter who ran off with the kids" I swear I will throw something at my TV first, then I will haunt her relentlessly for her lack of professionalism. I better not even tune in because that will be the thing that puts me over the edge today.
