Jamie Rose Bolin

Jamie Bolin was last seen alive on Wednesday, while at the local library... and although she was reported missing when she failed to return home, no Amber Alert was issued until Thursday night.

I understand the need to maintain certain criteria should be met when issuing an Amber Alert... I realise the importance of attempting to ensure that the public doesn't become conditioned to the alerts and slowly begin to ignore them... and yet, something in me is completely bothered that a 10 year old can go missing without people being informed of it.

The police believe, according to a statement released that even if an Amber Alert had been released- we'd still be faced with the same horrible end to this story... but how can they know that? What is the possibility that someone may have seen even the smallest piece of evidence and called LE? Can we really accept that there was nothing that could have saved this child? Now, I don't mean to criticize anyone, I really don't. I just want to make the point that they really don't know whether it would have helped- so I feel it's wrong to announce that it wouldn't have.

I know that it is pointless now to pick at whether the right or wrong choice was made, because Jamie was found Friday, not far from her home, in an apartment belonging to Kevin Ray Underwood.

Underwood has been arrested for what Prosecutor Tim Kuykendall called one of the most “heinous and atrocious” crimes he has seen. Although it is clear Jamie was murdered, details on her death have not been released. Not that I need them. I can already conclude that this man is a monster- who else would murder an innocent child?

UPDATE:
I'm just now watching the press release (7:00pm) from the DA in the case. Some of the information being provide will take a while for me to post, I just can't bring myself to post it all now. I can only say that the last time I cringed while watching the news this badly, was while hearing reports about Joseph Duncan.

But the important part is that her family has set up a memorial fund "The Jamie Rose Bolin Memorial Fund", which can be contributed to at any Bank of Oklahoma

It does seem that this horribly heinous crime was planned out, with items bought for the purpose of the crime over a period of weeks or months. The search of the home turned up a hack saw, duck tape, a cutting board, meat grinder, and a book on cannibalism.

The DA indicated that the monster responsible had planned to kidnap, molest, rape, torture, murder and consume the young girl. There is also evidence that more than one person was targeted, although so far the only victim known is Jamie.

UPDATE #2 a quick look on my crime blog lead me to Optymyst's place who has an excellent post with links to this perverts blog.

Lilo, this is horrifying. I did not report it on my main blog, but I did my other one. 8 p.m. (Assorted Babble News) This bastard even had a myspace account too.

This is just so sad - along with the news about the two little boys who were found yesterday.

The news said she was in the apartment right underneath the one she lived in with her father.

I simply cannot imagine.

All of you are doing such a great job covering this story....Last night and today...all I can do is think of that poor little girl and her family. Today when we said Grace for Easter dinner, we prayed for all of them as well. So sad.

Happy Easter Lilo....

WTW Someone Please Help Us

There's so much to work with, I'm going to just hit as much as I can. Ashely Simpson decided to pick a fight at McDonald's. Betting millions that if the employee would just go and get the manager- the manager would just love her. Simpson's climbing on the counter and irate behavior where in typical White Trash Style. Great coverage at Stereogum. Tom Cruise has decidedly canned his sister for her inability to help him keep his mouth shut. Evidently he needs a real professional as his PR person- in order to keep him in line. It's just not right firing family because you're and idiot. Kate Hudson is suing someone because of photos of her in which she looks like a starving actress. She claims the images suggest she has a eating disorder- no Kate, it's not the images, it's the you. One should not sue because they have starved themselves to the point of it being noticeable in photos. Please stop by these other great sites to read more WHITE TRASH WEDNESDAY B...

Boyfriends...

I sometimes wonder if certain men have some sort of animal DNA breed into them. The type of DNA or whatever it is that makes animals ritually preform certain actions. Like lions, when a male lion takes over a pride it'll often kill the offspring of the previous male, before mating with the female lions and creating cubs of it's own. I only wonder this, because it seems like there are an overwhelming number of men out there that end up killing the children of their girlfriends, not all of them do- but on a case by case comparison between girlfriends killing their boyfriends offspring and boyfriends doing it, it just seems that it's a lot more common amoung men. NOT THAT ALL OF THEM DO THIS... there are some great boyfriends/stepfathers out there that actually take care of kids as if they are their own... but then we have cases like Christopher Thunborg and Kashon Scott. Thunborg was babysitting his girlfriend's 11 month of baby in March when police say he caused ...
