Haven't seen a report confirming it's King. Just that a child's body was found in a white SUV matching the description of the one that was missing (same license plate). That sounds pretty definite though.

ETA: I was really hoping he had gotten away and was hiding somewhere, scared.

I seriously hope this man gets death. Does Illinois have the death penalty?

ETA: NM-YES THEY DO! GOOD!

They might as well not. They have executed 12 people between 1962 and now with the first coming in 1990 and the last coming in 1999 (all under Republican governors). Ryan suspended the death penalty in I think 2001 and commuted the sentences of everyone on death row. I think it has since been reinstated, but I don't see Illinois using it again any time soon.

This is sick. Did they say what the motive was?

I haven't heard anything official about a motive, but maybe they were originally planning to hold the kid for ransom (hoping that Jennifer or family would cough up some money)?

I don't think so. At least one of the neighbors where the truck was found recalls it being there since (if I recall the article correctly) Saturday or Sunday...they didn't even put two and two together for the longest! And then the neighbors not even calling 911 after hearing gun shots-there appears to be a band of dimwits residing in certain neighborhoods.

I honestly cried this morning. There is no reason to kill a child.

Well I understand that. But I obviously grew up differently as my father is an officer of the law. I know that you can't always trust the police (some depts. or individual cops are really just a joke), but if you live next to me, rest assured if there is significant or unusual trouble in your home, I'm dialing 911! That's just me and that's just my nature. Help if you can.

This is no joke. We have a high-risk youth program where I work and some of these kids have witnessed things that no child should have to see. They allude to things that have happened but they would NEVER go to the police over anything that happens outside of their own "families." And, if something happens within their "families" they take care of it themselves.

Very true. I know that people think "What? Why don't they just tell someone!?" but that's honestly not all to the story. Yes it seems outlandish that one would keep this kind of thing quiet, but that is how they have grown up.

I totally understand where you are coming from, BabyPink. I, due to my parents, live in a better part of Chicago where I could walk down the block and talk to my alderman if I wanted to. But if I go visit my friends in Hyde Park (outside of U of Chicago), I keep walking if I see something up. Sorry, but I am not putting myself at risk. Risk here being greater than just getting mugged.
