Pregnant Woman Found Slain In NE OKC Home

Woman’s body found this morning in northeast Oklahoma City

This story appears to be yet another example of the perils of being a young, pregnant woman. It is a scenario that is being played out all too often. We don’t know the "whats" and "whys" at this point. We don’t know the "who." I will be very surprised if the results of the investigation veer very far from what seems to be an alarming trend among young mothers-to-be. These young women and their unborn children are all too vulnerable to malevolent forces –forces that would cut them down just as their lives should be beginning.
