They questioned her for 5 hours before arresting her. Just what I've read in the last hour had me horrified. I think she used her trusted Sunday school position to lure Sandra to procure her for child porn/sexual assault, and she has priors and knowledge of the dump area, the church, and it's her suitcase!

Yes at least judging by what has happened the police have been on top of it and let her dig her own grave in the media.
I was totally out of the loop today on this. I just caught up on the thread. The note BS, that has to be some sort of guilt shining through right there. I know its hoping against hope, but I really hope that this was some sort of accidental death and cover up. Not something more sinister. I think its leading to something more sinister. Doesn't she have a child? I think they need to protect her!

Are there any actual, legtimate news links to Melissa's prior with the drugged 7 year old? I called KRON4 breaking news, because they didn't have the arrest on their site, and i was looking for any info on it.

Me too! And I agree with all of your post except the part about it being an accident. This woman has priors for drugging a child associated with a molestation that have been reported. I didn't even check this forum until 1:30am because I got caught up in the Anthony depos...

Think it was in So Cal. Try some stations in Orange County..Copter try Bellflower, just found this: Later, it was determined that she was competent and she pleaded guilty. Huckaby was also convicted in November of 2006 for petty theft at the Bellflower Superior Court in Los Angeles County. http://cbs5.com/local/sandra.cantu.arrest.2.982515.html

This woman may just take down more than one pedo with her! Can't believe she acted alone and killed just to murder.

Agreed, I definitely feel there is someone else involved, and that Connie knew about this the whole time.
I guess there IS some bonus to being up this early.

ITA. I had a feeling all day, but I was working and away from the net so wasn't in the loop...kept thinking, 'a woman?' and trying to process it. Wasn't coming to any other conclusion other than she did it or was very involved.

Sounds like we missed a presser? LE thinks she was killed before she was reported missing.

No additional arrests expected:
http://www.recordnet.com/apps/pbcs.d..._NEWS/90411001
By the time Sandra Cantu was reported missing two weeks ago, she was likely already dead, authorities said.
Tracy police late Friday arrested a Sunday School teacher and granddaughter of a church pastor in connection with the death of the 8-year-old girl, five days since the girl's body was found sealed inside a suitcase.
Melissa Chantel Huckaby, 28, was booked into San Joaquin County Jail early today on suspicion of kidnapping and murder, Tracy police Sgt. Tony Sheneman said.
Huckaby was arrested at 11:55 p.m. Friday at the police station after hours of questioning, Sheneman said. He could not immediately provide more details about what led investigators to the woman.
Sheneman said no additional arrests are expected in connection with Sandra’s death.(more at link)

Early in the investigation, Huckaby told authorities Cantu had come over to her mobile home to play with her 5-year-old daughter on the day she disappeared. Huckaby said Cantu left for another friend's home when told her daughter was too busy cleaning up her toys.
Huckaby has a 5-year-old daughter - GULP!!!!!!!

I bet she never did leave Huckaby's house. Melissa probably said that to throw LE off.

Lol, me too! I'm on Chicago time.
I read an early-AM presser announced that MH had most likely killed Sandra before she was reported missing. That is where I got the idea they had a presser after midnight, after arresting MH. Not that it really matters!

MSNBC said they will have an update at the top of the hour.
They broke into a special on Waco to announce the arrest.
