Dellwood Park and Pilcher Park are approximately 4 miles apart.
SIMILAR FACTS:
* Both girls were black.
* Both girls were young mothers.
* Both girls attended Hufford Junior High School in Joliet at one time or another (not sure if they attended together).
HERESAY:
* Someone on the Topix thread has details that Kaylor Suggs was raped and her face was beaten in, but I couldn't find that in the media. They say they saw it on Fox News the morning of the discovery in Dellwood Park.

Police have been VERY tight-lipped about the case. Lockport and Joliet residents have not gotten any information regarding the official cause of death of Kaylor Spells. It appears they aren't doing much for Haqikah either. As a resident of this area, I want some answers and I want to get this perp(s) brought to justice!!!
