NEXT ON NBC AT 10: The family of a woman whose body was found near Lake Lewisville talks to NBC 5 and why news of her death was a worst-case scenario they had feared for years.
“We were all hoping that maybe she ran away to get out of the situation and she had a plan and somebody helped her,” said Dowd.
“We were going to call the bus stations hoping that maybe she was going to come to one of our houses,” said Amy Pattison.But then Wednesday, police confirmed the body of a woman found near Lake Lewisville belonged to Sarah and that Karlton was behind bars, for now, charged with abuse of a corpse. Investigators said the ankle monitor Karlton was wearing for a previous crime, aggravated assault of a minor, showed him in the water around the time Sarah was presumed missing.
“You know, we were worried. It was in the back of our minds, and you try to prepare yourself for it. And when you actually hear it and try to make sense of it, you just lose sense of reality,” said Dowd. For now, Sarah’s family said all they have are assumptions about what happened and who is responsible for their sister’s death.“I think it'll give us a little bit of closure to know that whoever the person was that did what they did to our sisters is getting what they deserve,” said Dowd.This article tagged under:
