Missing University of Virginia student Hannah Graham was last seen September 13th in Charlottesville, Virginia. After over a month searching for Hannah authorities have found human remains last Saturday eight miles from where she was last seen. Who the human remains are is yet to be determined.  She was last seen at Tempo Bar at around 2 a.m. on September 13th as well as a man following her who was later identified as Jesse Matthew, 32 . Jesse was taken into custody on September 24th in Galveston, Texas. He has also been linked by forensic evidence to the case of Morgan Harrington, a 20-year-old Virginia Tech student who was last seen hitchhiking outside of Charlottesville in October 2009. Harrington's body was found on a farm that following January. So far Jesse Matthew has been charged with abduction with the intent to defile. 

Do you think Jesse Matthew could linked to one or both of the cases and what do you think his penalty if he is involved should be?

  • Good but you could have replied a few more times.

  • considering the idea of finding bodies randomly near each other, I would say that it wouldn't be an accident. I think the bodies do have a connection, but I'm not sure about Jesse Matthews doing it.

    • He was linked to the Morgan Harrington case although there still isn't proof that he killed her and the article didn't say anything about how he was linked to the case

  • I think he is linked to born and should get the death penalty.

  • they must first deced if he is a killer and then afterwords he should most likely be sent to jail

  • Well because they were both captured around the same area, I think he is responsible for both cases. I think she she be in jail for life for his murders.

    • I agree with you but the hard part is that they still have to determine if Hannah is actually dead and if he did in fact murdered Morgan

  • I think he might be, given that the two students he could be involved with two girls in the same area. I think he should go to jail for a very long time because that is scary and creepy and if I was one of those girls I wouldn't want him to be near anybody else. 

  • I believe that people need evidence before accusing someone of a crime. Do I believe he is responsible for the first one in 2009? Yes, but the second one I don't think that there is enough evidence to prove that yet. If he is linked to both then he should be treated like anyone else who has do the same thing because others have done this.

  • I think that he could be connected but there are a lot of other people who would do things like that. If he is responsible for both of them he should be arrested condemned to prison.
