8 year old girl in Santa Cruz, CA was tied up, beaten, raped, murdered and dumped in a garbage bin "Allegedly" by a 15 year old acquaintance described by neighbors as a good kid. It's heart breaking and makes me sick to my stomach. Monsters are among us - even close by so watch your kids. Time to have another safety talk with my girls. It is so scary to be a parent.
