An article in the St. Petersburg Times looks at the life of a man whose daughter was abducted and murdered seven years ago but whose body was never recovered, and the re-emergence of his grief each time another child is abducted. The article quotes Thomas Frantz, associate professor of counseling, school and educational psychology, who says it is not unusual for people who cannot bury their dead children to believe that there's still a chance their child will come home.
