She wasn't interested in him and I think he snapped. I think he raped her and killed her.

How can it be that she's really dead? How can it be that she's not going to come back? How can it be that her life is just completely over?

I'm pretty darned excited. Hopefully . . . I'll have Taylor back in my arms soon, very soon.

She had talked about being an entertainment attorney. She had talked about international business. She had talked about history and dealing in antiques. So she was kind of all over the place.

It was just what we had to do. It was time because when Taylor is found, she will not be attending VCU. I'm taking her home with me.

My mind still cannot absorb the fact that someone could do something this cruel and heinous to my 17-year-old child.

I'm sure you can imagine the shock and horror I feel knowing that the body found is most likely my baby's.

Feeling sorry for her, I gave her $40 and a hug and a kiss. I sent her on her way not knowing . . .

I hope that he knows more, and I hope that now that he's behind bars that he will tell authorities what he knows.
