Conviction in Alan Watson’s murder

Fifteen-year-old Alan Perez Watson, who disappeared in 2001, was listed as a runaway until his remains were identified last May. His skull had been found in northwest Atlanta, Georgia in 2009; he’d been shot to death. A suspect was arrested the same month the skull was identified.

That suspect, Dion Renaldo Sims, has been found guilty of murder and sentenced to life plus ten years in prison. I can’t find any other articles about it, though; I don’t have much information.

Ashley Carroll missing one year

Ashley Marie Carroll, age 24, disappeared from Albany, New York one year ago today. I found this article about the anniversary. It doesn’t provide much in the way of details on Ashley’s disappearance, instead focusing on the pain of her parents and young daughter.
