Elizabeth Olten Found dead in St. Martens, Missouri

I was watching the news about this, just this morning.. This is so heart breaking to me it's not even funny.. These two beautiful baby girls taken away from there family members for unknown reasons.. To also know that a 15 year old child killed a 9 year old girl.. Something seriously wrong with this picture.. Sometimes though things like this really make a parent stop and think and it should.. This means you need to watch your children and know where they at all time.. I am a very protective mother of my son and I am always making sure when he's out playing outside I am able to see him.. Sure I may live away from the main road but it only takes one nut to come down it.. So I think if it taught anyone a lesson it's to be sure you know where your children are at all times, even know you may think be sure for certain, it really only takes a minute to know, rather it's a phone call or a peak outside.. It also sickens me that anyone I MEAN anyone would even think about hurting a child or a person.. A very sad story for sure.. I feel so bad for those mother that have to go threw this.. My heart goes out to them both..

I don't know. I wish there was something we could do. This is so sad.I think parents need to be a little more responsible for their children, for one thing. Kathy.

Wow this is so sad how the world can get this bad.. The sad thing is that America has brought it unpon itselves I was molested growing up and I am not ashamed to say it, but sadly I was told to be ashamed, Not to tell... This happens in so many lives that make it more OK that this happens.. It gives the abuiser the OK I won't Get Caught causing it to fester... Now a bit more awareness has went out, causing people to watch more.. So, this trash is gets out... Spreads... Sickness all over... It kills me!!! We DO NEED TO TAKE A STAND!!!

When they find these people that did this, they should not even go to jail. They should die the same way that these kids are being killed. It is getting so bad out there.

It's really a sad world; what we are going through now. Little girls have vicious things done to them and killed brutally, and offenders are running wild, scot-free, laughing and smiling that they are not being caught. I am in rage! If I could join forces to go on rounds, I would. Just to keep the neighborhood safe. But then, other neighborhoods could be in danger. There really needs to be something done. I notice killers struck at times whereby one least expected. Like they could be doing the deed near to a recent incident, or they could just let it be and strike when everyone's in their comfort zone. What is the world coming to; the people in it are getting more malicious by the day. Thanks for this awareness, Lelin..

It is horrible and I'm angry that I don't feel like I can let my girls out of my sight. The question is what can we do as a society to keep this from happening. I would start with the justice system. Someone that has committed a crime against a child is often times "treated" and released to go further next time. I also think that the sentance for their crimes are less than someone who has done a much lesser crime. Something needs to be done for sure!

It is the saddest thing in the world that this is happening. I am not blaming the parents but they just can't be too protective of their children. If i had a young one i wouldn't let them walk anywhere by themselves, it is just to dangerous anymore. It is sad that times have changed sooo much that children are not safe tobe outside by thenselves. There are too many loonies out there that need to be put under a jail. They can't be punished enough for things like this.

Tragedies like this are the exact reason why I do not allow my kids to go places without me personally taking them or knowing the adult that is taking them. My kids think it is unfair and silly, but I am no fool, bad things happen all of the time and everywhere. I hope that they catch the person/persons resposible and put them away for life. Better yet, why not make them go through what they put that child through?

We are so afraid for the children. The little ones are so defenseless against kidnappers, murderers, molesters, etc. In my country, a four day old infant was taken away from her mother in a mall and a toddler was kidnapped from her own home. The crimes had gotten so frequent and so morbid. It is time to beg God to eradicate evil...

as a father of a 2 1\2 year old girl myself, no matter what part of the world i live in, i will never feel safe knowing that my daughter is going without me anywhere, i even hate going to work away from her! and to those disgusting\perverted\mental\disgraceful people out there that commit these attrocities, i hope you all get whats coming to you in the most foulest way thinkable! its absolutly disgusting to hear about these things no matter where you are in the world, IT JUST SHOULDNT HAPPEN!!
