Jessica Dishon was seventeen years old when she went missing from her driveway on September 10, 1999 in Shepherdville, Kentucky as she was leaving for school. Her badly beaten body was discovered seventeen days later. She had been strangled to death. One of her neighbors was indicted for her murder and spent two years in jail before his case went to trial. His case was eventually dropped for lack of evidence, but many people still believed for years that he had gotten away with murder. He maintained his innocence from the start and eventually had to move away due to so much harrassment and hostility toward himself and his family after his case was dropped. There were also two other people who were suspected because she had been seen with them close to the time before her murder. There two guys were close to her age and a lot of people were suspicious of their guilt and they also dealt with many negative rumors. One of the guys died in a car crash a few years ago and his name and reputation was never fully cleared. Just in the past couple of days, Jessica Dishon's paternal uncle, Stanley Dishon has been indicted by a grand jury for her murder. He has a long history of sexual offenses against young girls. I truly hope they have the right guy this time and someone finally pays for taking this young girl's life in such a brutal way. This case has received a considerable amount of coverage in Kentucky and her parents and brothers have suffered greatly from knowing the person who killed Jessica hadn't been caught. Her parents eventually divorced afterwards. I hope Jessica receives justice and her loved ones finally know what happened and who is responsible, even though that must be another horrible reality for them to accept.
