Remembering Morgan Harrington

It saddens me to report that the remains found on a Virginia farm yesterday are in fact those of Morgan Harrington.  I spoke to State Police officials today, and they say they are working to determine Morgan’s cause and time of death.  I spoke with the Medical Examiner’s office, and they say in normal cases an autopsy to include toxicology reports normally take 24 hours, but in this case, it could take weeks.  State police investigators were at the ME’s office today working with the pathologists as they took x-rays and gathered information.  Authorities are on the farm today conducting a grid search, and gathering as much evidence as they can.  Morgan’s body could have been on the farm for as many as 100 days.

Cops release possible suspect sketch & vehicle

The last anyone heard from Kristi Cornwell was on August 11, 2009.  Now, investigators say she may have been abducted by the same man who tried to abduct a woman in North Carolina a few days before.  Today, investigators released a sketch of a man they are looking for, and a possible vehicle he could be driving. 

Authorities say Kristi Cornwell was exercising in Blairsville, Georgia down Jones Creek Road when she was allegedly abducted.  Investigators say around 9:00 p.m., Kristi was on the phone with her boyfriend, who was in Atlanta at the time, when a car approached her, there was a struggle, and she was never seen again.  A reward of $50,000 is offered for information leading to the safe return of Kristi, or arrest/conviction to the person responsible for her disappearance.  Kristi’s family is extremely proactive in this case.  They started a website, they have frequent, sometimes daily searches of the area where she went missing, and they even auctioned off the family’s lake house property over the weekend to raise money to help find this missing mother.
