Melissa Lewis Murder Case -

Was this a fairytale murder story?

Lawyer Melissa Britt Lewis was reported missing March 7th; a highly detailed BOLO was issued; her cadaver was subsequently pulled out of a canal and identified.

The story emerging from this chain of events has contained seeming anomalies, improbabilities, and even outright contradictions.

And then, instead of naming Lewis' ex-husband as a person-of-interest, which is the usual pattern for this genre of cases, the police arrested her friend's ex-husband, while sealing all the legal papers.

"The South Florida Sun-Sentinel along with the The Miami Herald, is suing to open the records for public access."

+ Good idea!
