makes it more difficult to now investigate the death with the body moved. But life
must be easier for the cops without the screaming hyenas blowing off. Of course, if a
prosecution was called for, it now has a lesser chance of success.

what appears to have been a
prank cellular call (or calls) before midnight Monday.

said she had been
abducted on Sept. 14 and was being held against her will in this vicinity. She later
