Ohio Jury Convicts Man of Kidnapping Girl

Guilty of kidnapping, innocent of rape. That appears to be the disisionin the case revolving around missing 5 year old Emily Rimel.

SOURCE

Jurors in Columbus have convicted a man of kidnapping a 5-year-old girl who disappeared last winter.

But they but acquitted him of raping her in a case built on the testimony of inmates and DNA fragments.

A Franklin County Common Pleas Court jury deliberated for a week before convicting 24-year-old Lindsey Bruce.

Emily Rimel hasn't been seen since her mother's boyfriend checked on her as she slept last December.

A close match to Emily's DNA was found on Bruce's body, but the defense argued the match wasn't close enough to convict. Bruce's attorney also tried to discredit fellow inmates who testified that Bruce confessed to raping and killing the girl.

He loves me, he loves me not, oh what the heck he loves me...

It seems to resemble a bit of a 3rd grade crush. Mag said first grade ... but it's really less annoying that having my ponytail pulled. He loves me... after all, he keeps linking to me . He loves me not... evidently that's why he uses my comments out of context and twists my words... he loves me, because clearly he likes to "poke the bear" (That 70's Show quote).

And Lindsay, he is demented. And he should be locked up forever. And, well it seems that he is a fan of mine. Yep, that sick lil monkey can't help himself.

The Beating Death Of a Child

Michael Porter was arrested Thursday for the death of his two year old stepdaughter. He is accused of striking the little girl in the abdomen earlier in the week causing blunt force trauma and inflicting deadly wounds. The little girl was described as having significant bleeding in her intestines and bruising on her ribs, the front of her chest, side and back. Records indicate that she had bruises in other areas of her body and medical examiners believe she suffered from possible kneeing, punching or squeezing. Kelsey Smith Briggs dies hours before her father was due to return from serving in Iraq. Port has recently filed divorce papers on Rae dawn Porter, the little girls mother. The bond has been set for $1 million, after he plead not guilty in court Friday morning to charges that he killed the toddler, Kelsey Briggs.
