He killed his own little girl. Why? What is wrong with people? This little girl was living a nightmare and it makes me so mad that the adults in her life, her parents and the court, were unable to care for her and keep her safe.

She said she spends time honoring Janessa's memory at the Triple Creek Nature Preserve in Hillsborough County. Irina Florianovich remembered the July day when she made the heartbreaking discovery.

“You can see that something was not right because it was a lot of birds, a lot of vultures," Florianovich said.
Florianovich was walking with her dog and her own 13-year-old when she found Janessa's remains.

Nahshon Shannon entered a not guilty plea last week. Janessa's mom plans to be in court Monday and said she just wants justice for her daughter.

She must have been found right away or was her thread maybe pulled for some other reason?

Regardless, my heart breaks for the woman who found Janessa's body... And for all the potential Janessa will never see... heartbreaking indeed...

ETA: Her sister was indeed found safe. A simple search will bring you articles saying same.

BREAKING: Janessa Shannon, 13, may have been strangled, had cocaine and alcohol traces in her body, court record says

Dirt recovered from his Jeep Cherokee was a 99 percent match for soil samples taken from her grave site, the University of South Florida's Anthropology Department concluded. A shovel in his garage carried mixed sediments matching both dirt in his yard and dirt from the area where the body was found. His DNA matched DNA on the shovel.
There were four screw holes on the shovel handle. Two contained screws; two did not. Crime scene technicians found a small gray Phillips head wood screw near Janessa's body that appeared consistent with those on the shovel, according to the court motion.
The shovel, modified, was unique, prosecutor Jay Pruner wrote in his motion. The screws weren't the originals. Paint in one of the holes was consistent with paint on the screw from the scene.
