Breaking News: Shon Pernice indicted in Renee Pernice’s murder; he has been arrested

Now the road the justice has started. My heart breaks for the family and loved ones of Renee, but it also feels a bit of happiness that this has now occurred. I know that so many people were worried that he would get away with this, but sometimes, things have to move slow so that it is done correctly. Remember, you want the conviction to stick, not be dismissed on a technicality. I think those who have worked on this case have worked hard and it is now paying off for them. They were striving for justice and for the family. I hope and pray that the family will remain strong through this tough battle they have ahead of them. They should know that there are so many people standing behind them. And if I can find a way to attend the trial whenever it is, I will be there. (Missouri DOES have the death penalty, right??)

[Question for those of you there – on the MySpace page they talk about the bracelets you can get. Can someone tell me how I can get one since I am not physically in the area?]

Breaking News: Body wrapped in plastic and duct tape found near West Wendover, NV *Update – it is a male hispanic body*

Well, a body, wrapped in plastic and duct tape was found in a very desolate area near West Wendover, NV, just over the Utah border. The area is called Pilot Valley area. They are having trouble keeping cell phone service working there. This is close enough that it could be a place that Susan Powell could be, an area close to where Josh Powell said he went camping that night. They have not said if it is male or female, but the height is 5’4′ to 5’6′. Susan is 5’4′. Right now, my gut and my heart says it is her. I will update as I hear more. Please, keep Susan and her family and loved ones in your hearts, thoughts and prayers.

Interestingly enough, Josh Powell came back to Utah yesterday to sell his house and pack it up to move back to Washington. He has been fired from his job as well. Now, why would you sell your house and move while your wife is missing? Does he know she is not coming back? That is the only reason you would. She has been missing a month, but still, if my loved one was missing, I would stay and look FOREVER until that person was found. To me, it is a huge red flag, along with the fact that he has apparently (from what I have read) has now refused to help the police at all. Great husband huh?

UPDATE
Apparently the body is of a male hispanic, so it is not Susan Powell. However, they do not have an ID yet and no one missing by the description.
