I first found this blog because of the murder of Cori Desmond and wanting to know more what happened etc. I have stuck around even though I did not ever expect to hear anything more. Glad to know someone has been taken into custody finally, I just hope there is proof beyond reasonable doubt.

Now I have something to look forward to besides November 12th.

The tipster did something so small that turned into something HUGE well done! All because they paid a little extra attention you never know.Being a female in the area and having known cori we can at least rest a little easier knowing this piece of garbage has been caught i do think we could save a lot of time and money by putting this pervert in a room with dad for 2 min and looking the other way!RIP Cori

It's a breath of fresh air to know they found someone. But we are not out of the woods yet. They still need a confession, or it has to go to trial, which could take years. Lets cross our fingers, and say a prayer that he gets what he deserves.
