It's 5;30 as I am writing this and will continue to up date this entry so not to keep creating new entries.
On the way home from the cosino today, my mom and bro heard on the radeo that there was a kidnapping-killing at a half way house in the town which I work. So she asked me if my place was considered a half way house. I said no.
As we pull up to my work, there was police cars and yellow tape.
I called my boss ... no answer on her cell phone
I call a friend who workks for the company, no answer.
I come home and sit in front of the tv watching the news.
As of right now, there is very little details.
Only thing I can find out is that a female was adducted from my work, and the body was found dead behind a church in a near by city.
On the 6pm news from the police department, they released the name of the killer and the age of the victom.
It was the new client who did it.
There was a lot of blood at the house.
the victom's car was used to transport the body to the neighboring city where it was dumped behind a church without most of her clothes on.
The car was found in boston, about 25 miles away from where the body was found.
I am still not sure of who exactly the victom is, but I can make some assumtions.
I just wish I heard about it from my boss or someone higher up than to find out about it by ariving at the work having my mom tell me about the police car and yellow tape then to have to wait on cold pins and sharp needles in front of a tv for 2.5 hrs before I find out.
I am just sick over this.
I have never felt this way before.
It's so surreal?
please, let me wake up and let this just be a really bad nightmare. please?

UP DATE FROM THE DA at 7pm
An employee at a residential facility for mentally ill men was killed today by one of the residents, law enforcement officials said, as they asked for the public's help in finding the man.
An arrest warrant for murder has been issued for Deshawn James Chapell, 27, of Chelsea. He is charged in the slaying of Stephanie Moulton, 25, of Ipswich, Suffolk District Attorney Daniel F. Conley said at a news conference this evening. Conley said Chapell may have fled to Boston.
"This was an extremely violent homicide of an innocent young victim," Conley said.
Conley said police and firefighters responded to the facility. shortly before noon for a report of a fire and discovered a large amount of blood "consistent with a violent assault" as well as a small fire.
Moulton's body was found later, behind St. George Orthodox Church, Conley said.
police had earlier notified other police departments they were looking for a Chrysler PT Cruiser in connection with a kidnapping from the residential facility. Asked if the PT Cruiser might have been used to transport Moulton, Conley said "possibly."
A car matching the description was found parked near the Ashmont MBTA bus and Red Line station this afternoon, officials said.
Asked if Chapell had a criminal record, Conley would only say he was known to the police.
Conley urged the public to call 911 if they see Chapell and called him "a very dangerous individual." He said police are not seeking any other suspects.

“He’s been diagnosed as a schizophrenic, and he suffers from brain injuries,” Dr. Naomi Leavitt told Judge

A mentally ill Chelsea man with a violent rap sheet moved into a low-security Revere group home without ever undergoing a criminal background check, according to the program operator.
Deshawn James Chappell’s record, which includes arrests for assaults, weapons and drug charges, was never reviewed by officials who decided to house him in a state-contracted residential program run by North Suffolk Mental Health Association, the firm’s CEO, Jackie Moore, told the Herald.
“It’s not part of the determination of eligibility for services,” Moore said.
While federally funded programs require Criminal Offender Record Information background checks, the state Department of Mental Health, which placed Chappell in the Revere home, has no such requirement, Moore said.
“That’s a loophole we have to close immediately,” said state Sen. James Timilty (D-Walpole), who co-chairs the Legislature’s public safety committee. “You’ve got these case workers out there trying to help people ... and we’re not looking at what these people did or what they’re capable of doing. You’re putting people at risk
Nationally, between 1997 and 2008, there were 131 homicides in which the victim was a health care or social services worker.
