You did not deserve this.

2. That's so sad.

I hope they find the culprit.

3. Still hoping the body is mis-identified

We should have more details soon.

9. Isn't is better to have only one victim instead of two? (nt)

12. definitely 2 is worse than 1

but if the body found is from some one else,
it could mean Mollie is still alive. So only 1 dead.

4. This is the girl they were looking for on a pig farm 20 miles away (from where she was last seen)?

And last I saw, they hadn't found anything at the farm.

And her boyfriend and boyfriend's brother were not suspects (bf was out of town).

Sad. I wonder what happened? I guess we will hear more later on this.

11. What a senseless shame!

These stories are always so terrible. Not only for the crime but for the fear and pain involved.

13. Women should not go jogging alone.

This is what we have come to.

14. Especially in deserted areas!

17. See post 16. N/t.

18. Don't think post#13 is trying to blame the victim

she is throwing out a caution to avoid jogging alone, if that is possible. You may be quite right about crime may be actually down compared to before, but there is nothing wrong in suggestion to avoid jogging alone, especially in deserted areas.

Absolutely we can never blame the victim, the blame is 100% on the perpetrator. So just avoid giving the perp opportunity to do their dastardly deed.

16. ... blaming the victim much?

I realize you're saying "That's what we've come to", but if any gender has demonstrated that a curfew/being supervised would cut crime, it's men who we should be suggesting stay inside, not women.

I refuse to lock myself up in my home for fear of death -- how would I really be living if I did so?

And truthfully, crime is down compared to the 70s and 80s when we kids roamed free-range and only the biggest stories hit the news. Now we hear about every crime. So yeah, I'm still going to jog even though I can't find someone to jog with me. And I'm far more likely to need to dodge traffic than assailants.

15. Devastated

Was really hoping she would be found safe. May her family find peace.
