Thanks Sister for posting this !
Seems this killer is still at large, and nothing major is happening to call this to the public's attention aside from what these family members and what the advocate Sister with the non-profit agency is doing.
The ones supposedly doing the investigations, categorized this when the first one was murdered and it came across the desk. Then the media wants to call them prostitutes, drug addicts and low class, with all this in common.
That one that was found in the burned abandoned shack didn't look like she fit that profile, but looks and what a woman/person is shouldn't matter.
Point is they were murdered.
Even one was too many !
Bottomline, they don't give a hoot, let this be white girls, white people,the rich or the famous or puppy dogs named flip,....they'll always rate top billing and every stone would be turned to find the killer.
This has always been the case ! Closed as usual !

I am outraged and angered because these black women are not getting the press that white women get when they are missing or abducted. Every one actually takes the time and effort to search for white women..No matter what their background or lifestyle is. Just because these black women live in a poor neighborhood and were once prostitutes or drug addicts they should receive the same attention because they are human… Or is that the problem? The media,police, and everyday people believe that black women are not human and therefore don’t deserve the same press as a white woman when abducted…People always assume that the black female deserves to taken or doesn’t deem black females as victims of rape, abduction, or even murder regardless of her background.. Many even assume that a black female is a prostitute, or a crack head before even hearing the full story. Many of these women are wives, mothers and have families that love them just like the white women.We need to change the police,media and overall general populations’ way of thinking. From what the story is telling the police or some form of the law is involved with this case the problem with that is the one’s that we look upon for help finding these women may be the one’s that are actually committing the crime.. I think that all people should be outraged. We live in a time where race should not matter but we are constantly reminded that it does..Many of the families of the missing women do not have the money for rewards and insentives for people to even bother searching for their loved ones…Here is the question…Would you want for someone to help search for your loved ones regardless of their past history, their race or their overall lifestyle? People should help search because it is the right thing to do: not because we pick and choose who is more newsworthy to search for by what race they are or their lifestyle doesn’t suit our tastes…
