FL - Somer Thompson, 7, Orange Park, 19 Oct 2009 #39

[Hopeful One]

I can't get the links to the live feed to work for me.

I couldn't either. I am watching msnbc now, they are covering it. I'm lucky enough to be home today, normally I'm stuck at work.

Sounds like they may have a DNA match? Did anyone else get that impression?

 

[athy]

that's what I heard, Shamrock.

ETA:

Sheriff saying they relied on admissions by defendant to get their probable cause for arrest...also said perp was monitored & they had no probs finding him when they were ready to go get him.

 

[athy]

I feel like this is even more brilliant LE work than it seems on the surface. My gut tells me they had DNA when the feds picked him up in GA, but didn't let on that this was about Somer at all to get JH talking about his kiddie friends. If he thought this was only about the , he might have talked and talked to appear cooperative to LE and try to avoid connection with Somer.

I hope and pray LE got tons of info from him, and can make many more child arrests. Even though Somer is no longer with us, I hope other children can be saved from abuse.

Sheriff Beasler expressed much humility about his handloing of the case. He deferred all praise to 'Team Somer'. He said never in his 30 (?) yrs of law enforcement has he seen so many different agencies work together in such harmony. He also praised the community for coming together and caring and creating awareness.

Sorry not verbatim....

Cannine was in back yard of Jerred home. There is a picture.

Premeditation does not take long -- as long as you know what you're doing before you do it -- it's premeditated.
(Sheriff)

 

[Dr.Fessel]

Premeditation does not take much, all you need to know is what you are going to do will cause death.

 

[lawlady84]

I love how these dumb f---s think they can "outsmart" LE. Between JH and that phone call with his mom/alibi, makes me sick. Give me a break. If you're that smart, you wouldn't be abusing children in your mother's basement - you'd go out and do something with your sad, pathetic life.

Sheriff reminding everybody that he said "we were gonna solve this crime".

He sure seems as tho a burden has been lifted off his shoulders.
