    I want to know why he killed nailah? What reason would he have for murdering her and leaving her body in the woods, lying to the police, and trying to make it look like she was alive on the very day he murdered her. I know it must be hard on his family. The evidence from the FBI and Police is overwhelming and puts him as the murderer. He stalked Nailah for 2 days before he killed her. What an animal! Mr Potts will never see the outside again. Such a violent man!
    His children will never grow up and know there father.
    My prayers are with Nailah’s family and The Potts family for what he is putting his family through.

    My sympathy lies with the family of the victim. There is no justice for leaving someone nude in the wilderness for days. To show you how much remorse he has, he could have called anynomously to her discovery. No sentence rendered by any court can truley compensate for the lost of a promising young black woman. The compassion that his family gets is the fact that they can still see him, touch him, and hear his voice. What about the Franklin family. One way or the other he’s going to get what he DESERVES!! Amen.

    Nailah’s Family,
    Although it’s truley dark right now and you can’t see the light at the end of the tunnel, find peace in knowing that complete strangers are praying for you and we feel your pain. They say, time heals all wounds. I disagree, especially when it’s a loved one. Let Nailah’s demise be your strength and the glue that brings your family together. She didn’t deserve what the devil did to her on earth, but she is in a kingdom safe awaiting the day when she sees you again.
    Hold on to God’s hand. He will never forsake you.

    This is just a sick bastard that needs to have Nailah’s family (everyone one of the Franklin’s) beat the HELL out of him.. To the point that he begs.. I mean begs to live. At that point, maybe a lethal injection can be administered..! OK.. that may not be possible but at least it would make them feel soooo much better in the long run.

    So unnecessary so senseless this murder of a beautiful young woman who had so much going for herself is disturbing. This horrible crime has even touched the hearts of people as far as Californian. God Bless the victims family you will be constantly in the prayers of many.

    Nailah Franklin has been an inspiration to me. I heard this story awhile ago and never forgot about her. It touched me to the point where I named my newborn daughter after her. One who succeeds/ or successful is the meaning of Nailah. Even though I didn’t know her personally I know she was a beautiful person. Why do evil people get to live and wreak havoc on innocent people while innocent lives are messed up or lost? I’m still trying to figure that out.
