From the LVRJ: The missing girl was found, but now the mourning begins.
Authorities found a body Thursday they believe is Jade Morris, a 10-year-old girl missing for almost a week.
Her body was discovered in an unfinished development in a North Las Vegas neighborhood near Deer Springs Way and North 5th Street.
Brenda Stokes, 50, the fiancee of Jade's father, was last seen with the girl about 5 p.m. Friday but has not cooperated with police. She has not yet been charged with the death, as detectives continued to collect and analyze evidence.
Capt. Chris Jones, who oversees the Las Vegas police homicide section, said the girl was discovered about 12:30 p.m. by a person walking a dog.
Police will defer to the Clark County coroner's office to officially identify the girl, but Jade's family had been notified of their discovery.
"I can tell you the likelihood is, this is our victim," Jones said at a press conference.
Sources told the Review-Journal that police treated the investigation into Jade's disappearance as a likely homicide since Friday night, when Stokes was arrested at the Bellagio casino after she slashed the face of a blackjack dealer. http://www.lvrj.com/news/police-find-body-believed-to-be-missing-10-year-old-girl-in-desert-184980791.html
How sad that a pathetic thug woman kills an innocent girl and over what? Jealousy? Bring on the death penalty, or let the thug Stokes be allowed into the general population of the jail or prison and let the prisoners take care of this bitch thug.
