The Wise County community is mourning the death of a 7-year-old girl who was abducted from her home and killed this week.
Mary Stapleton was one of the hundreds of volunteers who combed the area for two days. Stapleton is also with the Cottondale Volunteer Fire Department.
“We did ATVs. We went on foot. We went probably five miles, no, two miles towards 51. We searched in that area,” Stapleton said. “You’re not able to sleep. Just knowing that she’s out there somewhere. Didn’t really get resolution until last night.”“Like, during the summer…they would have parties and I can hear their laughter, music, and all the fun they were having. It was awesome. It was literally just across the pasture from me,” she said. “It’s a bucket full of emotions, literally.
The FBI, Texas Rangers and the Wise County Sheriff's Department are among the agencies who helped bring the case to a conclusion roughly 48 hours after the child was reported missing by her stepmom. Horner has been charged with aggravated kidnapping and capital murder in connection with the child's abduction and death. It is unclear whether he has obtained an attorney.
