Little Angel Obit.........vigil today
"She was born September 13, 2016 in Ashtabula, the daughter of Brandon Sutley and Kelsie Blankenship.
Sereniti was a loveable little girl who brought a smile to your face. Her personality was bright and her smile was contagious. She loved Scooby Doo, playing video games with her mom, and sleeping with her favorite monkey her grandma made for her. Although her time here was short, the lasting memories she brought to her family will forever be treasured."

How horrific! Why has this not been national news?

 

[passionflower]

Only way I heard of this is when I was in the area and read the star beacon newspaper.
None of my local channels have even flashed his photo.
I can't understand why this is not all over the news.
He looks very creepy and now the rape and murder of a year old baby.

Billie-Jo Compton says, "the system failed that child and these Conneaut Police, I'm sorry no disrespect but Lake County Police wouldn't have let that happen. So, I don't know why they let him go; they had him in there questioning".
