FYI...She was a real live girl.

Yesterday I had to deal with people discussing this case as if it was just some random case. Someone made a crack alluding to the fact that as a police officer or whoever, it would be annoying to have to go all the way to Galena to testify. Yeah sucks for you. Maybe you'd rather trade places with Donnisha? Or how about I go testify and you can know her personally and listen to people talk about her like she was no one special...just another case.

I'm guilty, though. I see so many victims in my office and they do become just another story sometimes. When the personal connection is not there, you don't want to get connected. It would be too painful to connect to everyone. It is easier to forget that people are real and their pain is real.

Anyway, here are a few pics of her, Vonnisha, and Shakeem.
