[quote=Anonymous][quote][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would like to know what happened to the little girl who was taken from an apartment complex party room during a Christmas celebration in Northern VA back in the 80's. I think her name was Melissa or maybe that was the mom's name. The police found the killer, it was the maintenance man but her body has never been found. There was an article in the Post a few years back that her mom still holds out hope and has kept the same phone number just in case. [/quote] Melissa Brannen. It was 1989 and I had just recently moved to the DC area and remember hearing about this story. She was at the party, went to get some potato chips and was taken from the party, never to be seen again. Her convicted killer, Caleb Hughes, is going to be released from prison in August. When he is released, he will have served 29 years. https://www.washingtonpost.com/crime-law/2019/04/19/abductor-year-old-melissa-brannen-be-released-prison-after-years/?utm_term=.7462689e91e8[/quote] Oh no! How can they be releasing that monster? That's horrible.[/quote] This horrible abduction influenced me tremendously when I got married and then was a parent. They basically were at home, in the clubhouse of the apartment complex, and little Melissa was kidnapped and never seen again by her mother. The video that was played over and over on the tv was so poignant and sweet. I cannot believe they are releasing that pervert. I cannot believe that they don't have some way to compel him to tell where Melissa is so her mother and her grandparents can find some peace.[/quote] Rosie Gordon was abducted in Burke while she was out riding her bike. She was later found dead in Fairfax just a short drive away. Amy Baker, a young woman, was killed in Springfield off of 95. I would really like to see both of these solved. [/quote][/quote]
