Description

Ian Huntley, 28, has been charged with the murders of Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman, both 10, from Soham, Cambs, whose bodies were discovered on August 17 2002. His girlfriend, Maxine Carr, 25, has been charged with perverting the course of justice. This case is still under investigation...(see link)

Rotramel has been charged in the murder and is awaiting trial. Since the murder, it was learned Rotramel had a history of sex offenses when he was a teen-ager.  

A judge allowed Rotramel's juvenile records to be released following an outcry over the murder. The records show that at age 13, Rotramel was convicted of forcible sodomy. 

SAGINAW, Texas, Nov. 9, 1999 - A grand jury indicted Richard Lee Franks, 30, for the abduction of Opal Jennings. Franks, a convicted child molester, has been jailed on $1.5 million dollar bail since mid-August on charges of aggravated
kidnapping and indecency with a child in connection with Opal's case.

According to an affidavit, investigators received a tip from Franks' probation officer which ultimately led to his arrest. The probation officer told police that Franks resembled the description of the kidnapper, that he drove a car similar to the one used in the abduction and that Franks had cut his hair soon
after Opal disappeared.

In August, Franks was arrested on an outstanding traffic warrant. Police say, when questioned about Opal's disappearance, Franks told investigators that the little girl got into his car, but according to Franks, he dropped Opal off at her home and that she was safe and sound.

Opal Jennings has never been found.

Prosecutors maintained Patterson sexually assaulted the girl
and then killed her because he was afraid she would tell her
mother or law enforcement officers. Patterson, now 41, has
insisted he is innocent.

Dunlap is suspected of kidnapping Sandra Astorga from San Bernardino on Jan. 10, 1992. Her body was found Jan. 30. Eight months after Sandra disappeared, Dunlap pleaded guilty to molesting his girlfriend’s 12-year-old daughter. Upon his release from prison four years later, he submitted a DNA sample, which was entered into a statewide database.

That sample matched semen samples taken from a green T-shirt found near Sandra’s body and a pair of panties found near her book bags, sheriff’s officials testified.

Dunlap could face the death penalty if convicted on all charges, including special circumstances of kidnapping with intent to rape.

In addition to providing education, and assisting in the recovery of missing children, the Foundation provides help to families with

In its 5-3 decision, the court ruled that the jury deciding whether Clark should be executed should not have heard details of his previous crime -- specifically, that the victim of his 1988 unlawful-imprisonment conviction was also a little girl.

A Snohomish County jury convicted him in April 1997 and, in a special sentencing hearing, imposed the death penalty. His attorneys had argued against letting jurors hear any details of his previous conviction in his sentencing hearing, but Judge Richard Thorpe allowed testimony that the victim was a 4-year-old neighbor girl.

Jurors did not hear what Clark was accused of doing in that case: abducting the girl and tying her up in his garage, where her mother later found her crying and partially undressed but physically unharmed.
