Sharon's opinionsThe headline on the front page of the Salt Lake Tribune this morning was very depressing though not totally unexpected. We've had a little 5 yr old girl missing for over a week and last night she was found dead in the basement of the next door neighbor. The buildings had been searched 4 times, but somehow she wasn't found. After 100's of people scoured the area and even into the canyons, she was that close. All the registered sex offenders were checked out and pretty much cleared. The young man who is now in custody has no record, but one instance of domestic disturbance 6 months ago. The police treated the disapperance as a " missing person" and didn't issue an "Amber alert" until yesterday.
It's just a sad, sad, thing when a little girl isn't safe in her own yard! I'm not sure what can be done. Maybe we need to see each other as lovable children of God,deserving love and protection. I don't know.
