Emotional Toll

[Mountain_Kat]

I consciously shut off any creeping doubts I might have about the way this case has been handled. That's a defense mechanism I very rarely afford myself in life. I'm a realist by nature. But with this case, if I allowed myself to dwell on the possibility that there might not be justice for this child, I don't know that I could continue to function in my real life.

CHARGES. EB indicted - 2nd degree murder. Finally! Someone charged in this child's death. Progress. At long last.

 

[Mountain_Kat]

Finally!

We're half way there, imo. But for now, I'll take this and be grateful for it.

My emotions were already on overload today, but I now know that at least some of the tears I'm shedding are tears of joy. I'm just so grateful that charges have been brought down in this case.

I know, it is like finally being able to exhale.

Things come in threes... Let's hope there's two more indictments to follow - maybe Kyron Horman case and Hailey Dunn case - or Hailey Cummings case??!!

Wouldnt it just be lovely to see the wheels of justice start to move on some of these cases we are so emotionally tied to.

Zahra gal, you are obviously very much in my thoughts today.

Oriah asked me to post this here today who has limited internet access at the moment. (Thank you mods for allowing.)
To Zahra: that we are all holding your hand, and holding hard onto the hand of justice.

I'm elated yet sickened at the same time. Zahra's getting justice, but OMG her autopsy. I've never followed such a rollercoaster of a case emotions wise and been so sick, not since finding out duct tape was on poor Caylee Anthony's face. This case is just so much worse, that poor, poor girl Zahra...I need to remember her in her pictures, that bright, beautiful girl, not remember her by her autopsy report...such a sad, extremely tragic case here!

*hugs and love to everyone* No matter how bad it gets, we'll be here to see justice served, Zahra! You can count on us!

I am really horrified and depressed that the skull is still missing.

 

[tlcya]

It has been one heck of an emotional day today and I am wrung out like a rag here. Betting many of you feel the same way.

And yes, the missing skull really bothers me too. I am not really allowing myself to speculate on that tonight tho. Its just too fresh and raw.

If this helps cheer anyone up, I can reveal I am sitting here with a colander on my head, as my stubborn-about-not-going-to-bed preschooler has decided I may not remove my "helmet."

 

[tlcya]

lol, it does.

No, but he is sitting on the arm of my chair, spinning the colander.

I am starting to feel like a tossed salad.

I have been preparing myself for information that was going to rekindle the almost unbearable anguish I have felt over Zahra and what happened to her. The missing skull has completely just brought me to my knees! I think I even posted somewhere back in the past that I thought the skull was the ONLY thing they had found in that horrible place by the creek. Now, to find out that Zahra's beautiful head is still out there somewhere!!! :furious::furious::furious: I just have no words at all for how I feel about that! I do know this.... justice has begun, but it is not complete!!! Not by a LONG SHOT!!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you, to all of the WebSleuth posters who have trudged thru this horrific crime. I just can't really find words that express my horror at what happened, and my gratitude at knowing there are other people who feel like I do.
