Sometimes, the good guys win one...

After so many kidnappings, every time you hear about a little girl gone missing, you steel yourself for the announcement of where and how they found her remains. But this time, they got her back.

It's ironic. The perp's name is Milagro...it means "miracle." It was a miracle that they were able to find that little girl and deliver her alive back into the hands of her family, a miracle that will surely send Milagro to jail.

So many of these stories pop up here in Florida. It makes me wonder, does our state have a disproportionate share of sickos and creeps? And if so, why? Why do they all seem to drift down here, to steal our kids out of their beds, and creep up on women in the parking lots? I've heard some say that the transient nature of Florida attracts drifters, the high number of tourists makes it ripe for the criminal element. But that only explains pickpockets and purse snatchers. Grifters and con artists. How do you explain someone who would look into the face of a scared little girl, commit unspeakable acts, and then snuff out her little life to cover his tracks? No one seems to be able to explain that to me.
