Beacher Hackney: Closure for Questions

Thankful and sad are the two emotions I feel regarding the confirmation that the body discovered in Bath County was Beacher Hackney, suspected murderer of two male employees at The Homestead in Hot Springs, VA.

Three and a half years ago I awoke on the first morning of Spring Break only to have Mama inform me of what had happened, and cautioned me as we went over the mountain for church.

A few weeks ago a body was found and suspected to be Hackney.

Today we know.

I am thankful the searching has been put to rest.  I am thankful there is closure for the families of the murdered and the murderer.  But, I am saddened at the death of a human who took revenge out on his superiors and then killed himself.  I am sad that the family of Hackney must know for the rest of their lives that their son, brother, uncle, cousin, etc. was a murderer and killed himself in the woods.

But, I am thankful for closure.
