Some of the bones found two days ago in rural Cass County have been identified as those of missing Raymore woman Jessica Runions.
Kansas City Police notified the Runions family Wednesday evening, according to a release from the Cass County Sheriff’s Office. Runions, 21, was last seen on Sept. 8.
Forensic specialists were called in after a mushroom hunter found human bones Monday afternoon near a quarry in rural Cass County. One skull was found the first day of the search and a second the day after.

Yeah I guess I mean and Al probably does to, closure in a physical sense. [Reply]

What's worse sometimes is finally not wanting to pull that trigger and join him. Then it hits you that you've allowed yourself to heal and it feels like betrayal. You convince yourself you SHOULD hurt all the time. You SHOULD think of him and your role in it, every single day. YOU SHOULD. So you do.
It's a daily grind for those who lost a child. [Reply]

I meant as in by finally being able to bury her and know exactly where she is. Fuck Kylr Yust, that piece of shit doesn't have that control anymore. [Reply]

I can't even begin to fathom. I don't care how many years it had been. I can't envision a scenario where I didn't tear the guy to pieces with my bare hands. [Reply]
still outsmarting the police i see - If he's not yet been convicted - I don't see it happening - the country boys of Belton will have to take care of him. [Reply]

When my brothers died my mom never recovered. She did all the wrong things to numb the pain and that eventually killed her. [Reply]

I'm with you guys. If I were the father of Kara or Jessica, that mother****er would be dead. As they were hauling me off to jail, I would just say "I got him". [Reply]

I don't usually feel the way you do, but this guy is a threat to the public. He cannot be allowed to roam free. If he gets out, somebody better do something. [Reply]
I mentioned this before, but I bowl in a league with Yust's grandfather. Such a nice guy, I really feel sorry for him. He missed a bunch of time when the grandson's name came up in the Runion case and missed the end of our season earlier this year when those remains were found. [Reply]

Yikes. That makes for an awkward bowling outing, I bet.
It's got to be tough to be related to a terrible criminal. I remember the Columbine parents being interviewed about that. They became pariahs and were judged as terrible parents based on what their kids did. I think one of the moms eventually started fighting back about it, but good luck with that. [Reply]
