The newspaper article in the Arkansas Democrat Gazette said her nude body was found in a ditch near the-40 rest stop(mile marker 108 if you need to be exact) nearer to Morrilton than Conway, but Morrilton is in Conway Co.(Conway is in Faulkner CO., confused? The 354 phone prefix is also a Morrilton phone exchange. This article was semi buried in the State/Arkansas section of the paper and normally it would've been front page news. Tuesday's article had more info on this gal and was on the front page. No mention of the AIRS list connection though. www.ardemgaz.com if you want to read the article. Tourist dollars at stake here???? Our family will pray for this family and their loss. We will also pray that the officers and court system bring the guilty party or parties to justice. She was apparently stabbed in the neck multiple times and not sexually molested.
