| A dismembered body found in a park in a Denver suburb has been confirmed as that of missing 10-year-old Jessica Ridgeway - while her killer remains at large. Authorities had initially been unable to confirm the identity of the body, which was found on Wednesday seven miles from where she vanished on October 5, as it was not 'intact', they said. They have now used DNA to identify the body as hers. 'Our focus has changed from the search for Jessica to a mission of justice for Jessica,' Westminster Police Chief Lee Birk said on Friday.

Comments: Here in Colorado, we've been following this case all week, hoping against hope that Jessica would be found. She's safe with Jesus now. Prayers for her family.

Such evil is hard to fathom. Her family and friends not only have to deal with her murder but they must also deal with the fact that she was dismembered. Surely there is a place in hell for the monster that killed this little girl. Catch him and send him there as quickly as possible.

Is it possible wild animals dismembered her after death?......My heart breaks for this little girl (she reminds me of my granddaughter)....and I don't want to think the murderer dismembered her ......it's too vile and evil.-----I lived in that area for a while, and there's lots of open spaces, open land and wildlife.-----this tragedy is really bothering me, such a sweet little girl and no one cared to take her to the bus stop or school.

It's tragic. I have a daughter the same age, and she walks a block to the bus stop by herself. Of course I worry -- but we have to let our children grow up and make their way into the world, in stages. It does no good to cripple them with fear from news stories like this one.

#4... call me overprotective, but I always watched my children until the school bus picked them up....I stayed vigilant......Soon after my son was born, that little boy, Adam Walsh, was abducted from Sears in Florida & beheaded-....this left a lasting impression & I always tracked when my children left home & were due to arrive...many times I drove them to the bus stop.---There IS evil in this world.

It is difficult to come to terms with such evil walking around our streets. I just cannot comprehend it; words are truly inadequate. My prayers for Jessica's heartbroken parents and extended family. I pray they will be comforted.

I'm a big fan of not being a helicopter parent, as they say, but I just wouldn't let my kid walk anywhere by herself at that age. I know most crime on kids is perpetrated by people who know them, but violence by strangers does occur, and as my nephews are sick of hearing me say, IT ONLY TAKES ONE TIME. My 16yo nephew is a third-degree black belt in karate, and it's only been in the last couple of years that I stopped standing sort of in the doorway of the mens room at the movie theatre waiting on him to come out.
This case has made me sick. God will deal with the monster who did this, whether he is dealt with here on this earth or not.

Yes, #6, it is probable that animals disturbed her body. This was a dry summer and the bears, mountain lions and foxes have been very hungry this year. Although horrible on any level, it is more comforting to think an animal acted naturally than an unspeakable event by a human.

Hey Mrs. Obama, how can our kids get any exercise, when they have to be afraid to play in their own yards at home?
Sure Moms used to be able to keep extra watch over their children, but that was before they had to go to work to help pay the family's bills.
Families and children are thwarted at every turn!
Poor little Jessica had to be so traumatized in her last moments of life, and all she was doing was walking to school. It is so depressing to hear how our children are being mistreated almost every day.

Is CO now one of those states who believes being a criminal isn't their fault and therefore they're treated lightly in criminal proceedings? As far as I'm concerned, if the cops ever catch this pervert and he gets tried and convicted, the only sentence should be death and dismemberment.

Jefferson County, Colo. - A judge ruled on Friday that there is enough evidence for a teen to stand trial for murder and attempted abduction about an hour after prosecutors played a 911 tape where Austin Sigg admitted to killing 10-year-old Jessica Ridgeway and to trying to kidnap a female jogger. The five-minute recording played during a Friday preliminary hearing began with the teen´s mother, Mindy Sigg, calling 911 on the night of Oct. 23, 2012. "I need you to come to my house, my son wants to turn himself in for Jessica Ridgeway's murder," the mother tells a dispatcher.

Only four doctors in the U.S. offer third-trimester abortions, knowing they risk their own lives every day to carry out such controversial procedures. These doctors are the subject of a documentary screened at the Sundance film festival last weekend, forty years after the legalization of abortion in the U.S. and four years after Dr Tiller. Physician George Tiller was a prominent practitioner of late-term abortions shot dead by an extremist in 2009. The documentary After Tiller is named for him and focuses on the few remaining doctors who perform abortions in the third trimester of a pregnancy. The Supreme Court granted states the right to limit abortions in the final three months of a pregnancy.

Is the Washington National Cathedral the spiritual center of the nation? In the mind of the liberal Episcopal cathedral’s new dean, it should be. Such an assertion would surprise many of America’s churchgoers, the vast majority of whom are not even Oldline Protestants, let alone Episcopalians. But since assuming leadership of the Cathedral in October, Dean Gary R. Hall has frequently spoken of the church’s role as being “at the center” of American public life.

When it comes to becoming a physician, the academic rigors, years of schooling, and personal sacrifice common to the effort are well-known. This process is a sort of rite of passage, an intellectual marathon that only the best and brightest can complete. As such, medical schools should select candidates best-suited to excel throughout school and cultivate the skills that will allow them to practice in the best health care system in the world. The process by which these candidates are selected, however, may come as a shock.

When Joe Parker was a young, newly married public-school administrator who wanted to buy a home in 1974, he didn’t even think about leaving Prince George’s County, Maryland. It was where he and his parents had grown up. But when Parker first tried to bid on a house in a new development in Mitchellville, a small farming community that was sprouting ranch and split-level homes on old plantation lands, the real-estate agent demurred, claiming there were other buyers. In truth, the development had been built to lure white, middle-class families to the county

In a series of remarkably candid comments, Prince Charles hinted that he feared his legacy as king would be cut short. During a visit to Dumfries House, the stately home in East Ayrshire which the Prince helped save for the nation, he joked about his reputation for pursuing projects with notorious vigour but made a poignant reference to his mortality. He said: “Impatient? Me? What a thing to suggest! Yes of course I am.” He added: “I’ll run out of time soon. I shall have snuffed it if I’m not careful.”

Michelle Obama has admitted that she is already tired of the bangs she first sported in January. The First Lady said in an interview with Entertainment Tonight: ´Bangs are a day-by-day proposition. They´re starting to grow out, get a little irritating.´ Still, she hasn´t let her hairdo woes get her down. ´It´s okay,´ she said after her initial complaint. ´We´ll be good.´ The first indication that her hairstyle was becoming a burden came about last weekend, when Malia, 14, was spotted adjusting her mother´s hair during the White House Easter Egg Roll.

President Obama´s biggest gaffe yesterday when speaking of California Attorney General Kamala Harris was not in flirtatiously complimenting her as "the best-looking attorney general," but in introducing an observation from the system of beauty into a forum that was about the system of power.What´s that, you say? Irin Carmon does a great job in Salon in laying out the bounds of propriety for when it´s appropriate to talk about a woman´s looks as a general matter. But I´ve long felt we lack a solid theoretical underpinning for easily discussing these issues, and why precisely it is that

On Friday, Sean Hannity brought Pat Smith, mother of the late Sean Smith, on his radio program. The 34-year-old information management officer was one of four Americans murdered in the Benghazi embassy attack on September 11, 2012. In the chilling interview, a distraught Ms. Smith, in tears, pleaded for answers and spoke of the efforts to silence her. Ms. Smith first relayed how her son, prior to the attack, requested additional security in advance and warned the State Department: He did tell them, ahead of time, he typed it into his little typewriter over there,

No one is more preoccupied these days with Hillary Clinton´s 2016 plans than the Beltway political class—not even the former presidential candidate herself. To hear some tell it, her decision will be dispositive for all other Democrats thinking of entering the race. And pundits and reporters aren´t the only ones positing the "The Hillary Factor": No less than the House Democratic whip, Steny Hoyer, told BuzzFeed, “I don´t know that anybody would run against Hillary…. If she runs, she clears the field.” It´s an understandable conclusion, given Clinton´s stature in the Democratic Party and her 70 percent

I hope all will look at a lifetime of service over some poorly chosen words.” Carson will remain as commencement speaker at Johns Hopkins,

Put out an all-points bulletin: Millions of Americans have gone missing from the workforce. Every month that those would-be workers are gone raises the odds that they might never come back, dimming the prospects for future economic growth. The vanishing trend is more than a decade old, but it accelerated during the Great Recession. Throughout 2012, economists held out hope that it had stopped. But then came Friday’s jobs report, and hopes were dashed. The Labor Department reported that the U.S. labor force — everyone who has a job or is looking for one — shrank

But really she’s something much more interesting: a traitor to her class. Her betrayal consists of being gauche enough to acknowledge publicly a truth that everyone who’s come up through Ivy League culture knows intuitively —

Los Angeles — Some people have had it with TV. They´ve had enough of the 100-plus channel universe. They don´t like timing their lives around network show schedules. They´re tired of $100-plus monthly bills. A growing number of them have stopped paying for cable and satellite TV service, and don´t even use an antenna to get free signals over the air. (Snip) Last month, the Nielsen Co. started labeling people in this group "Zero TV" households, because they fall outside the traditional definition of a TV home.

Recent research indicates that the number of people who do not consider themselves a part of an organized religion is steadily on the rise. Interestingly enough, though the number of those religiously unaffiliated is increasing, there is little to no trend in the number of those who express atheist or agnostic beliefs. People aren’t saying they don’t believe in God. They’re saying they don’t believe in religion. They are not rejecting Christ. They are rejecting the church. This begs the question, “Why are we losing our religion?”
