Remains were found off Old Lynchburg Rd. The investigation has turned into a death investigation.
Sad

sad, even though it would have been a miracle if she was alive. I suppose there's now some closure for her family and friends, but that is no comfort for the loss of a child. RIP. God bless.
Sucks

Thanks for the update Dune.
If it is her

hopefully there is some evidence to tie him to the murder and he is found guilty.
It's strange and very disconcerting...  
Dunedin81 : 10/18/2014 7:25 pm : link
that there were two multi-victim murderers working in the same area at the same time, apparently unbeknownst to each other.
That fucker better talk

It's always sad when something like this happens  
JayBinQueens : 10/18/2014 7:38 pm : link
Let's just hope her suffering was minimal and whoever is responsible, whether it's a group or an individual sees the appropriate punishment
He won't talk...

he has a lawyer, a pretty good one. The lawyer won't let investigators anywhere near him.

I would find a way to get that man out of jail and then spends months taking him apart, little by little.
Not a surprise

Hopefully I don't sound callous, but you have 48 hours usually or the victim is dead. I had no doubt she was dead the moment the report hit the news. May she rest in peace and her family find some comfort in closure. Incredibly sad, the inhumanity of man never ceases to disgust.
Ugh.

Disgusting.

Yep. And we have yet to see how many victims Matthew has between Cville, Lynchburg, Newport News and Fairfax.
The one in Campbell County is a possibility...

similar MO, young woman goes missing, turns up in a shallow grave in a rural area outside of a metro area with which Matthew is familiar.
poor girl

I feel sad, I might say a prayer for her family tonight.
I consider this good news  
PaulBlakeTSU : 10/18/2014 11:05 pm : link
I didn't think there was any chance that she was alive. This can give closure to the Graham family, and also present a body for which to help establish guilt and a conviction.

They avoided saying it, but this has been a body search for a month plus. You don't send search dogs and three hundred people into the woods for a couple weekends in a row to find a missing person.
Glad they found her body  
ZogZerg : 10/19/2014 9:59 am : link
The parents can get some closure and not be hoping against hope.
Joey Not callous

Unfortunately you are right - generally perpetrators see no benefit in keeping them alive. The imprisoned sex slave thing is a sick and rare phenomenon.

And, in NY Post today - boyfriend beats three year old girl to death for soiling her pants, then beats up her five year old brother before fleeing. Little boy found hiding when help arrived.

in this day and age

whether it is male or female you should never go with anyone under gunpoint, but rather fight for your life till the end. It is saddening to see people show up dead in obscure locations. Sometimes I think some believe their abductors will seemingly let them go.

She was hammered drunk, and she may very well have known Matthew casually. He was a fixture on the Downtown Mall, she probably had no idea she was being abducted.
Matthew was indicted on the 2005 rape...

out of Fairfax, which was also charged as attempted capital murder. The link goes into some of the strategic reasons this is likely to be tried first.
