Body Found in Knoxville: Hampton Family to Hold Press Conference
Posted at 8:10 AM Sep 29, 2008
A fisherman found a body floating in the Clinch River in Knoxville, TN on Saturday. No one seems sure yet as to the identity of the dead young woman, but the family of missing Alabama woman Jennifer Lee Hampton will hold a press conference this morning.
Hampton family attorney Eddie Daniel told local Knoxville media that the family realizes "the probability that the body is Jenny." As a result, the family is making funeral arrangements.
At the moment it isn't even clear how the 21-year-old woman died. At the moment the only safe guess is that her death wasn't natural.
That said, Knoxville police have already stated that they believe Jennifer met with foul play. Now the most important question is simply who killed her? And are they in a position to kill again one day, if the opportunity arises?

I'm trying to remember how long it took Knoxville LE to figure out who killed Johnia Berry. Perhaps justice will be served much faster for the Hampton family.

A 19-year-old hotel employee who police believe is in the country illegally has been charged with the murder of Jennifer Hampton, the 21-year-old waitress whose body was found over the weekend.
