Katherine Olson went to meet someone about a nanny job posted on Craigslist.org. The next day her body was found in her car at a Minnesota nature preserve. I head this AM on the news that a 19 year old man has been arrested in connection with it. Beware before you answer ads. This is even more a reason to work from home. It's safe. My heart goes out to her family and I can not help wondering if this beautiful woman suffered before she died.Poor girl! Stay safe xoxoxo

Oh My Days this sounds awful, we never know where this is going to hit us or who will strike next..I do hope that people will be more careful.Everything in life is luck, we never know who is good or bad..All we can dois pray and hope for God's protection. This is bwecoming a very sick planet with a lot more sick and mentally ill humans living on it. Someehting somewhere had to give.

I use Craigslist a lot, and until now so far no problems... too bad to hear that some people take advantage of others in need...

I heard that on the news this morning. That is terrible. I am glad they found the person responsible. The internet is a breeding ground for criminals. The majority of us are decent people, but you always need to watch out for the ones that are not.

I am so glad I have found a good home based biz to work with. I am such an enviro nut so when I found this company it was a natural fit. Ofcourse I had to kiss alot of frog-jobs before I found this prince of a job! xoxoxoxoxo
