Poor parents! I honestly don't know how some people go on living after having something like this happen to their child. I think I'd go absolutely insane with grief.
If they determined she was raped too...I think I'd shoot myself (after I found and killed the freak of nature that did it, of course).
I think about the kids in that area too. It's bad enough if a child is abducted and killed by strangulation or a hit on the head, but to know that a child was butchered afterwards... I can hardly stand to think about it. My daughter was in the 4th grade when Polly was was abducted, raped, and strangled about 20 miles from us. I tried to keep the news from her, but she heard about it from friends, and became very fearful for months after.
I think that as a parent, afterwards, to keep from going insane, you'd have to do as so many parents of murdered and missing children do, and start a foundation or take up a cause that has the potential to save another child from a similar fate.
