On the plus side, Shawn Anglin and Marilyn Halstead from the Southern Illinoisan have been helping to investigate and review Ryan's case in cooperation with the Carbondale Police Department for several months, resulting in a front page story for the 13th anniversary of his death.
We've come across a few tidbits that may have been missed in the past and viewed previously known information with a different perspective. We've managed to reach out to some people who were present that night or lived in the area at that time. Shawn especially has been going over what evidence is available to us with a fine toothed comb, mostly due to his previous law enforcement experience. It's been wonderful working closely with them on Ryan's case.
I am overwhelmed with the kindness of so many people over the years. No parent should have to live the nightmare of losing a son or daughter, especially to murder. Those who killed Ryan have sentenced us to a lifetime of pain and anguish for a crime we didn't commit. Meanwhile they go on their merry way as if nothing happened. Those who are protecting them are just as guilty as they are. They should man up to what they did instead of hiding like cowards.
Ryan, you are forever in our thoughts. We will love and miss you always.
You are deeply missed Ryan aka "paranoid!!!". Justice will be served eventually but our hearts will NEVER heal. Hope you're having a blast up in that wonderful heavenly home! Until we meet again my friend......
