HOUSTON - A 19-year-old Texas A&M University student was killed by her ex-boyfriend, who then dismembered and burned her body on a patio grill, authorities said Saturday.

Investigators say Timothy Wayne Shepherd, 27, confessed Wednesday to strangling Tynesha Stewart because he was angry she had begun a new relationship. Shepherd, who is charged with murder, is being held on $250,000 bond.

"We have determined through this investigation that the defendant dismembered Tynesha Stewart and . . . he burned the body parts," Harris County Sheriff Tommy Thomas said. "There are no remaining body parts."

Yeesh. Can we kill this nutcase enough times?


And now, for all of you who want to argue about how your government should always disclose eveything to you no matter what...

The announcement Saturday ended a debate in the Houston area about whether law-enforcement officials should launch a massive and expensive search of the area's overflowing landfills in hopes of finding Stewart's remains.

Officials first thought that the body had been disposed in a large commercial trash bin that had since been emptied.

Sheriff's investigators had decided against launching a costly and time-consuming search for Stewart's remains, angering her family and friends. Complaints from activists and lawmakers prompted Thomas to get emergency approval to spend up to $500,000 for a search.

Thomas said he knew, but could not disclose, that there were no body parts to find. He said investigators were unable to release that information to the public or to Stewart's family because of the investigation. Stewart's family has since been advised, and understands why there will be no search, Thomas said.

Sometimes people in positions of authority know things you don't need to know for reasons more important than your petty curiosity and your agenda and your desire to play semantics games on a message board.

yeah, um that's not much of an analogy. huge diff between disclosure and openness in NATIONAL political process v a grisly LOCAL homicide where there's not really much potential for abuse of power.

nice try, though.
 
I beg to differ. In both instances you have whiny assed non-involved people demanding to be told things that are none of their business.

Or are you one of those people the president should be consulting every five minutes?
 
1. beg all ya want. it's a shitty analogy.
2. no. and that has nothing to do with your shitty analogy.
