Since it was first reported that her family had actually reported her missing on March 16th of this year, I just had a bad feeling in the pit of my stomach. You just know from following the story on the local news; this simply cannot end well. And even though she is still officially considered missing until a body turns up, The Santa Clara County Sheriff’s department has stated that DNA and other evidence is leading them to believe that 15 year old Sierra Lamar is dead, and they are confident that they have her murderer in custody. Although 21 year old Morgan Hill Ca resident Antolin Garcia Torres has been officially charged with kidnapping and murder, the question still remains, where is Sierra’s body? While Santa Clara County officials remain convinced that the missing 15 year old girl will not be found alive, There are still those within the Morgan Hill Community that are equally convinced that the lack of solid evidence suggests otherwise. Meanwhile the rest of us are left with heavy hearts to wonder where is Sierra Lamar? And when will her family finally have some closure?
Very sad situation. Makes one appreciate when our own kids are safe, and breaks our hearts for the families of those who are not.

ReplyDeleteI've been following this case since day one.. I just knew it wasn't going to end well.. very sad indeed :(
Without a body - a murder conviction has little chance with a jury. Plus, look at how many people Texas has put to death that later were proved to be innocent.
ReplyDeleteA preponderence of guilt doesn't cut it in a crimmial trial.

DeleteYep they still need to find her body, and a murder weapon would be nice.. they just don't have enough evidence to convict this guy. I still hope they find her soon.
