Chelsea King

Chelsea King, as most of you have heard on the news, disappeared after going for a jog in a San Diego park. While family and friends worried and and thousands of friends and volunteers searched, many wondered and worried what had happened to the seventeen year old Chelsea.
Her car was found in the park with car keys and cell phone inside.
Chelsea King was young, beautiful and an honor student at her high school. Thousands of people who had joined the search, then mourned the Poway High School honor student at a candlelight vigil Tuesday night.

Brent King thanked supporters on the lawn of St. Michael's Church in Poway.

"She's my angel forever," he said.

Five days after her disappearance, her body was found in a shallow lakeside grave in the very park where she had vanished. Thirty year old John Albert Gardner III has been arrested and charged with her death and rape or attempted rape. Gardner is a convicted sex offender who served five years of a six year prison term for molesting a thirteen year old girl in 2000 and is also suspected of a December attack on another female.

Chelsea's death was horrible and sickening in the extreme because it did not have to happen.
How long before the law and courts understand that sex offenders cannot be rehabilitated?
How many more women will we lose this year? Next year? And the year after?

Chelsea's life, so full of promise, was cut short in the most beastly way by a man who should have never been let out of prison in the first place. An animal of a man who preys upon women and who will always prey upon women. It's in his brain, part of his nature and who he is. A beast...
You cannot change that. You can only lock the beast up and away so that he doesn't harm anyone else. Or you put him down.

I pray he gets put down....

RIP Dear Chelsea and know that we mourn your loss, your beauty and your life of promise.
God Rest your soul...

Until next time,

Love and Light to You All,
