I don't know what her parents were thinking letting her go to that drippy hairdressing school with its druggies and hooligans? She lay down with dogs and got up with fleas. One of those fleas took too much of her blood because it was fun. Fun for him only though. It happens. Big deal.
I have utter contempt for the Wenatchee police dept and anyone they would use as an informant. I remember the witch hunt trials. Prosecutor and Judge and Police all got away with too much nonsense to have earned any trust even now. And lets not forget the mainstream press there... they were tarred with the same brush and have not earned any respect afterwards.
A young pretty girl with her life ahead of her and much promise is dead, largely because she was in a bad crowd. That "bad crowd" happened to be in Wenatchee. The geography places her and her family beyond the pale of a civilized response to her plight. If this had happened somewhere else I would be appalled at the crime, but it happened in Wenatchee and Wenatchee has not purged itself of its terrible mortal stain. The citizens of Wenatchee who lose their daughters are without recourse. They should have stood up during the Wenatchee Witchhunt and they should have campaigned for a town living in utter poverty so as to make funds available for compensation well beyond those insurance limits. Parks, ambulances, fire stations and police cars should have been sold. Police, prosecutors and judges should have been held accountable. Reporters should have been held accountable. The people of Wenatchee did not pay for their crimes against civilized society and the people of Wenatchee did not atone for their sinful support of their police, judicial systems or newspapers.
