Maybe we can get this case solved next, after they found the Gretchen Harrington evil perpetrator. LE took down the Long Island sicko. Good things come in 3s. Time to get some justice for this sicko.

That would be such a blessing! I followed this tragedy closely when I was active prior to 2017. I had so many links bookmarked. I'm going to search for them. Carole Ann really touched my heart, poor sweet girl. We were close in age, and I was a good little Catholic school girl who occasionally would stop in at church just to say a prayer. The churches were rarely locked until later in the evening.
