The Associated Press reported today:

Janice Webb was on her way to a Father's Day gathering with her family when she disappeared, said fiancee Ronnie Bowie of Lakewood. Her grandmother lives in Sowell's neighborhood.

Webb, the 47-year-old mother of a grown son, was a drug user, but had a good heart and would "give you the world," Bowie said.

"She did things I wasn't proud of," he said. "That still don't give nobody the right to kill."

Though Bowie disapproved, Sowell's neighborhood was one of the areas Webb frequented. Bowie says he went to police in Lakewood to report his fiancee missing, but they refused to take it because she was an adult.

"They said, 'I'm sorry about your loss. But she's a grown woman.'"

Later, he went back with her sister, but they still wouldn't listen.

"If I was rich," he said, "they'd have been looking for her."

Is it typically up to the police to decide whether or not someone can file a missing person report? If Mr. Bowie's account is accurate, I find this very disturbing. And I hope Ms. Webb is found and is safe.

Disgusting and typical of what has been going on in my little town for a while.

Elitist, racist, homophobic.

This is awful, just awful.

Remember it was Judge Nancy McDonnell, who some Lakewood politicians wanted local dems to endorse, who downgraded his rating to low risk.

That meant that he only had to report in quarterly to his probation officer.

Good job there judge.
