The police also found Meredith Emerson's wallet, driver's license, college ID, and part of a blood-stained seat belt in a dumpster outside a QuikTrip convenience store in Cumming, Georgia. When police found Hilton and his van, part of one of the seat belts was missing.

Surveillance video and additional evidence puts Hilton at that QuikTrip.

According to the arrest warrant, Hilton was washing out his van with a bleach and water solution when taken into custody.

Sadly, it appears that Meredith Emerson is dead.

Wonder if the police also found the yellow coat Hilton was wearing when seen with Emerson? And, if so, if they can tie the coat to the missing hiker from last October, or the video of a man using the hiker's ATM card.

One look at the alleged perp, and you say to yourself, “Why do these micreants all bear such an uncanny resembleance to each other?” The answer, of course, is, “Because they are almost invaribly drunks, derelicts, or druggies” (almost invariably with a list of arrests a mile long).

Then — unless you’re a bleeding heart liberal — the inevitable next question is, “Well, if that’s the case, why don’t the authorities do something to keep closer tabs on these drunks, derelicts, and druggies?” And the horrifying answer to that question is that thanks to folks like the ACLU, drunks, derelicts, and druggies in the United States are now a protected class.

Should you have any trouble believing that, check out the appalling number of programs especially designed to provide your tax money to these upstanding members of the Welfare Vulture Culture.

By the way, did you know that your government now has a program to provide drunks with $600 cash a month — if they come in each month and prove they’re still stewed to the gills? You can’t make this stuff up.

That miserable scumbag. Give him to her Dad. This is playing out uncomfortably close to my home. I know that gas station and car wash. My daughter drives in that area as well.

OH NO!!

This is my territory down here and when they found that guy cleaning out his van I knew it wasn’t good. He had rolls and rolls of paper towels in his windshield area as if he were washing out with paper towels. And her dog was found 50 miles from where she went missing. I bet the guy didn’t expect the dog to have a microchip implant.

So sad, but I was afraid of this from the start. Her friends said she was a bluebelt in martial arts and she probably felt a false sense of security hiking alone on BLOOD MOUNTAIN.

I also wonder about the missing teacher from south Georgia. I can’t recall her name, but she was from Ocilla, or the Tifton area. Went missing about a year ago without a trace.

Meredith Emerson should have taken an NRA Refuse to be a Victim course.

One is taught to carry OC Pepper Spray.

This is very sad. I’m not entirely sure on the timeline, but it seems to me that they announced this guy’s name before they actually caught him. I suppose it may be because he was seen at the time of the disappearance last fall of two hikers, and perhaps he had been ID’d then. Or probably he was a previously convicted sex killer, paroled to hole up in the woods and wait for more victims. I bet we’ll find out that he had a record for things like this.
