RIP Adam Walsh

[bravedave]

Authorities announcing that the case is closed: serial killer Ottis Toole did it, and made a deathbed confession in prison more than a decade ago.

Rest in peace, little Adam.

I saw this earlier on CNN
Bless Adam's family

Finally this family can get some sort of relief knowing the b*stard that did this is gone!

Peace be with you Walsh family

Peace be with the family with this long overdue news.

I remember seeing the movie about Adam when I was a little kid. That story always stuck with me. I believe I heard a recent interview with John Walsh where they discussed the possibility of it being this guy and John seemed to think it was. I hope they find some closure with this. Lots of good has come as a result of this tragedy. Keep on sailin' Adam.

Finally.

One of my aunts told me that loosing a chld was the worst thing she's ever had to face. I can't imagine what the Walsh family has gone through all these years. Hopefully they will be a little more at peace now.

Even after all these years gone by, it was amazingly touching listening to the press conference. As John said, "today was a good day".

Rest in peace Adam.









And burn in hell, Toole.

Same here. I was pretty close to Adam's age, and my parents made sure to tell me about this case so I would learn from it. It really drove home the importance of sticking close to them when we were out in public and the dangers of talking to strangers.

I hope his family now finally has some closure.

I always figured it was Ottis.....truly one of the most frightening people I've ever heard speak....

The world is a better place without the likes of him sharing our planet.

I believe Adam was in peace and I suspect that the Walsh's knew all along Toole did it, but it's good that there is that final confirmation.

Sail on Adam and peace to the Walsh family. I remember this story/movie as a child.

This still makes me so sad.

Agreed. The pain was still palpable on the family's faces...even the children that were born later.
I can't imagine ever learning to live with a loss like that.

Rest in peace Adam.









And burn in hell, Toole.

AMEN !!!
