man, what a day.

so the chapel hill police held a news conference at 12:30 to release info on the woman found shot to death yesterday. turns out, it was UNC's student body president. wow. at the 12:30 news conference there were pretty much just all the raleigh stations and media. police held another one at 5:30 and there were about five times as many cameras and reporters. the Today show even called me because they were looking to have some of Eve Carson's (the victim) friends on their show in the morning. i've heard they'll be live from UNC friday morning but who knows.

i feel awful for the family and friends of her...especially because of the nature she was killed...several gun shots to the head. it's absolutely terrible.

i feel bad for all the investigators who are involved in this. i cant even imagine the amount of pressure that is on them to find the killer...at this point, they have no idea who it is. they're saying that the crime was random, but what's the chance that someone just randomly kills the student body president? things just dont add up right now...we'll see if there are any new developments tomorrow.

i dont mean to sound heartless when i write this, but if she wasnt the blonde haired, blue eyed, student body president, this would get barely any media coverage. it's just sad because people get killed everyday and no one hears about it...and when something like this happens, its like some lives are valued more than others. it shouldnt be that way...every human life is precious.
