Justice finally comes for Keisha - Fibonacci Prima - 04-22-2011

Keisha's grave finally located

"Under the cloak of darkness, and clutching a small bunch of flowers, the pair unwittingly walked into a police trap.

Unaware they were being followed by a carload of homicide investigators who were ready to pounce, Abrahams and Smith wandered into the bush on Thursday night, allegedly to visit Kiesha's grave.

They left hours later, about 1am, and were immediately handcuffed by police, who had trailed them into the dense bushland and waited for them to emerge on to a well-lit nearby street. "

Aussie cops are cold! I love it! What a fantastic way to catch these horrible monsters.

Rest well now, little girl. You deserved more.

On Good Friday, people visited the front of the home she lived at in Mt Druitt, placing Easter bunnies, stuffed toys and other items along the front fence after hearing that skeletal remains were found in bushland around nearby Shalvey.

Earlier in the day police arrested Kiesha's mother Kristi Anne Abrahams and step-father Robert Terry Smith, and charged them with murder.

They reported she had been kidnapped from their home last August, but police found no trace of an intruder.

They now allege the pair killed Kiesha sometime between July 20 and 27 last year and reported her missing days later.

Abrahams and Smith parents did not appear by video link in court, with their lawyer saying they were too distressed. They have been refused bail and will face court next Friday.

The remains are yet to be formally identified and until then Kiesha's biological father Chris Weippeart has declined to comment.

By 5.30pm (AEDT), a few hundred people gathered - many of them mums with children - and lit candles. The mood was sombre and a number of people cried during the event.

A group of about 10 people wore purple t-shirts with a motif of Kiesha's photo on the front.

One of them said a few words about Kiesha followed by a number of children who read aloud poems.

Kiesha's uncle Jason Smith spoke at the vigil and thanked the community for their support

He says the day's events have brought closure to the family.

"Today's meant to be Good Friday. In a sense, to us, it has become Good Friday because we now have closure," he said.

"We're all here to say farewell and thank you very much. As a family we'd like to thank you. As a community we've all come together. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts."

Others gathered expressed rage and relief at the arrests.

"I'm hurting, I'm angry and I just want to cry. You know, at the end of the day, justice is going to come upon [those responsible]," said one woman.

The remains were uncovered at about 8.00am (AEST) "at a number of locations" on land off Stoney Creek Road.

"The remains, which have yet to be positively identified, will be taken to Glebe Morgue for forensic examination," police said in a statement.

"A post mortem will also be conducted to establish the cause of death."

But the search of the bushland is continuing and police say it may go into the night.

"Suffice to say we will remain out there until we find what we're looking for," said Detective Inspector Russell Oxford from the State Crime Commander Homicide Squad.

Detective Inspector Oxford says it has been an arduous nine-month investigation and there was intense interest in the case.

"It was simply the case that we never wanted to give up on this matter," he said.

"The community outrage and the community of support was something I'll probably never see in a long time."

Earlier he said community anger had been growing after the arrests.

"The community is very concerned. We had a very young girl that disappeared and it really tore at the heart strings of a lot people," he said.

"The public outpouring of emotion started this morning and no doubt it will continue."


parents, crying lying bastards.

I love that happy little picture of her. Such a darling little curly top. I'm so glad they finally found her, and so proud of the local LE for patiently waiting for this moment. I got the news last night, and seriously felt crushed. I've been following this since the start and it hit me hard. Really hard.

The details of what they believe happened are just horrifying. No child should endure that sort of life or death! It makes me think of Riley Ann Sawyers saying "i love you mama" while being beaten to death. Special place in hell, and all that. There must be. As there must be a very special place in Heaven for these darling angels. *sigh*

I'm such a frickin' mush bucket when it comes to kids. I'm with you on the Heaven bit. What they've endured here will be quickly forgotten. I truly believe that.

So this is how it started. I will never be able to understand how any child can be killed and discarded by those that they love.
Such utter selfishness.


Missing Sydney six-year-old Kiesha Abrahams did not go to kindergarten in the week leading up to her disappearance on the weekend.

Kiesha's uncle, Jason Smith, said today his "happy-go-lucky" niece was kept at home because of her mother's new baby, a one-month-old girl.

Mr Smith said he had not seen Kiesha since a family party three weeks ago.

When this little girl went missing the whole thing stank of lies. And I am not even a law enforcement person, like the mother had just had another baby and didn't hear anyone come into her house/unit/apartment. Anyone who has nursed a newborn will know that you hardly get a deep sleep within the first 6 months and its full on listening for noises.

Also do you notice how the mother looks like Elisa Baker?

Six-year-old Sydney girl Kiesha Abrahams has been laid to rest, six months after her remains were found in a shallow bushland grave.

Many of the 100-plus mourners wore Kiesha's favourite colour purple during the private funeral on Wednesday at the north chapel of Pinegrove Memorial Park in Minchinbury in Sydney's west.

Family and friends consoled Kiesha's father Chris Weippeart at the service, where a choir of children sang In the Arms of an Angel, News Limited reports.

Kiesha was reported missing from her Mount Druitt home in Sydney's west on August 1 last year.

The girl's mother Kristi Abrahams, 28, and stepfather Robert Smith, 31, were charged with Kiesha's murder after her skeletal remains were found in April this year in a shallow grave in bushland near her home.

Father Edward Dooley presided over Wednesday's service and urged mourners to remember Kiesha - but to also focus on the present and the future.

"It is now time to heal," Fr Dooley said.

The Purple Army, supporters of the Weippeart family, donned their purple shirts and handed out purple ribbons ahead of the ceremony.

Kiesha's coffin was covered in flowers and arrived before the funeral service started.

Her grandmother Liz Weippeart requested that the funeral be a private event for people close to the family.

"She is our little girl, this is the way want to do it," Mrs Weippeart said.

"I don't mind who comes to the memorial, but we want to keep the funeral service private and low-key."

A public memorial, open to the community, is planned for next Tuesday.

Social networking websites were abuzz with well-wishers writing messages in memory of Kiesha.

"Rest in peace princess. A funeral among men is a wedding feast among the angles and you truly are an angel now," Kate Helena Anderson wrote on Facebook.

"fly free now Angel, rest easy," wrote Leanne Harrison.

The organisation Australian Missing and Endangered Children posted: "Rest in peace today little one, forever remembered."

NSW Police commissioner Andrew Scipione expressed his sorrow to family, saying the case had it has affected many Australians.

"There can be nothing sadder to a community, to a nation, than to lose a child particularly in circumstances like this," Mr Scipione told reporters in Sydney.

He said all parents would be affected by Kiesha's death but he reminded people that those accused of her murder were still before the courts.

"But from a father's perspective I would say ... it must be a terrible thing to have to bury your child," Mr Scipione said.

"No parent should have to bury a child. Whilst today is sad, it also brings closure and I think that's a good thing."
