	Oh! How really dreadfull. All I can say is that I hope her end was so swift that she didn't suffer. Her poor, poor parents, what must they be going through, it's unimagineable.

	I heard the news on the way back from shopping and thought I had misheard. I have no words to describe at this moment what I would like to do to that miserable low life scumbag.

	The details turned my stomach, for that reason I did not post them on here, and I also think anyone, having heard the gruesome details, would not find it easy to be totally impartial.

	In cases like this I do wonder how they manage to find a jury who can be wholly impartial.

	The trial opened today of Mark Bridger who is accused of murdering five-year-old April Jones and the prosecutions opening speech contained some gory details, the whole thing sounds heinous, April's parents must be horrified and devastated at what the prosecution disclosed. April vanished while playing on her bike near her home in Machynlleth, mid-Wales, on October 1 last year and her body has never been found.
