Title: Teen Survives 30 Hours in Woods With Broken Neck; Teacher Accused

When they finally spotted her in the dark, they thought they had a corpse — until Johnson saw the blonde, blue-eyed girl breathe.

"I wouldn't use the word conscious, and I wouldn't use the word awake," he said. "Her eyes would respond to flashlights, and literally that was about it."

Did this make anyone else sick or is it just me?

That is just great. I hope they can patch her up a little, there are some evil people in this world

Authorities have said Reeves and Shelton had a "relationship," though Johnson would not elaborate.

I'm guessing they were screwing and she was going to "out" him over some petty argument. He either did this in a rage or planned it to keep his job. Without justifying it, I can at least understand rage; it can make a person blind to reason for just a moment. I cannot, however, understand how a normal person can logically choose evil as the best course of action over something so insignificant.

Police said they were still investigating why the muscular, 6-foot-1, 200-pound teacher tried to strangle the 5-foot-5, 120-pound junior with a belt and, according to the criminal complaint, use "his forearm with such force as to break the neck of Ashley Reeves."

This is as good an argument as any for further blurring the punishments between attempted murder and murder. Why even differentiate? The act, impulse, and motivation are all the same. The only difference is a breath and a pulse, a bullet two inches in either direction, a blade misplaced, a ml of arsenic, an ounce of strength.

I wonder if there is any indication that he was taking steroids. That'll certainly make you rage a little. Besides, why are so many young, attractive people becoming teachers now days anyway?
