I live in a small town, approx. 16,000 people. And I love it. I've moved around so much in my life that it is nice to finally live somewhere that I enjoy, where I'm involved in the community, where I've got friends.
My husband also operates his business here - and I work for him. A side business is managing a building in our town that has 7 apartments and about 15 commercial/retail spaces.
About 10 days ago a young woman in one of the apartments was murdered. It was not violent (though I suppose you could say all murder is violent), she was strangled in her bed, possibly while drugged and asleep.
While I didn't know Angela well, I'd met her and spoken with her a few times since she moved in in early July - her death has hit me hard. The idea that someone could take her life, destroy it, leave her 7 year old daughter motherless... makes me so angry. Her death has affected a lot of people, from her sister who was her caretaker and is devastated; to her two children who will not grow up with their mom around; to the neighbors all around her apartment that are wondering who did this and are they safe.
They don't know who did this yet but I hope they find the guy and fry him.
