TODDLER THE ONLY WITNESS DELORES THOMPSON SLAY

BLUDGEONED

HE witnessed something no one should see, let alone a two-and-a-half year old boy.
But Delores Thompson's son is still the only person who saw what happened to his 27-year-old mom and her pal Gwendolyne Fulce, 21, when they were viciously beaten back in September 1973.
Sadly he can't remember what happened, but by the time his father arrived to pick him up the two women had been brutally bludgeoned to death.
The toddler had been left among their bloody remains in her Portland, OR home.

NATALEE HOLLOWAY COULD BE DECLARED DEAD: JUDGE

DEAD?

NATALEE HOLLOWAY could be declared dead within days after a judge ruled that her father had met the legal presumption that she had passed away.
As we reported here six years after the gorgeous teen went missing during a graduation trip to Aruba, Dave Holloway has taken the sad step of trying to have her ruled dead and bring legal closure to the case.
Recounting the extensive searches on land and air of the holiday isle he said there was no sign of his daughter being found.
His attorney, Karen Hennecy, asked, ""Dave, do you believe Natalee is alive today?"
"No," he answered quietly.
He added that he partly based his decision on the fact that the man, long suspected of killing her, Joran Van Der Sloot, has claimed in the past that he watched her die.

TIME and technology finally provided the key to unlocking a cold blooded murder almost three decades old.
Cops say that fingerprint analysis has finally linked Shawn Marsh to the brutal 1983 killing of Rodney Wyman, 29, and his hotel roommate.
They added that they were settling in for the night when one of them heard a noise in the back of the bedroom.
When Wyman approached the door, a gunman flung it open and shot him through the heart.
As Wyman staggered across the room and out of the front door, Marsh threw the roommate and screamed: "Where's the money," before kicking him in the neck and head.

THE DISTRAUGHT mom of missing Natalee Holloway urged parents to make sure their kids are safe, to avoid the heartache she had been through.
