I just received an email about this. This is really sad and I am certainly praying for she and her family...

Not a surprise that they're moving so quickly - high profile case like this, they're probably putting a little extra manpower behind the investigation.

What a horrible, terrible crime. I hope that little boy is ok, I can't imagine what his mother and Jennifer are going through right now.

Some people just don't want to get involved for whatever reason. When my friend's house was broken into (and they took practically everything, including a car) the neighbors saw everything. But none spoke up.

It also seems as though they might be in an area with a higher crime rate, so maybe gunshots isn't that unusual???
