Grandma's House

For those of us keeping track (and I think that's most of us), little Victoria Jo Stinnett is doing very well in the intensive care unit of the Topeka hospital where she's staying with her daddy. The woman who gutted her mother, Lisa Montgomery, has apparently confessed to the crime and is in federal custody, charged with kidnapping which resulted in death.

There was one interesting sentence in the article which jumped out at me.

Todd Graves, the U.S. Attorney in Kansas City, Missouri, said on Monday it was too early to say whether Montgomery suffered from mental illness.

He said the crime underlined how the Internet both brought crime into the victim's home in a small rural town but also allowed investigators to solve the case and recover the baby a day later.

This is not the first reference I've seen to the internet being responsible for bringing victim and killer together. Let's hope they don't forget the internet also helped solve the case.
