HOMOSASSA SPRINGS, Florida (CNN) -- Three weeks after 9-year-old Jessica Lunsford disappeared from her home, authorities said Friday a convicted sex
offender who had fled to Georgia confessed to kidnapping and killing her.
As the search for Jessica's body continued under bright lights erected just across the street from her home, police were questioning three people
described as associates of John Evander Couey -- a 46-year-old sex offender with a long criminal history.
Citrus County Sheriff Jeff Dawsy said Couey made the confession after undergoing an FBI-administered polygraph test, Citrus County Sheriff Jeff Dawsy
said.

I think in my opinion that there was no need for this! To take a young girl and kill her solves nothing but the killers twisted mind! The 9 year old
whose father was so optimistic about her returning home alive, I'm sure will be devastated by this tragic news. I am also so saddened to hear this
myself. She was just a child, her life just starting, and this man ended it, for her, and her family,... who now will never see Jessica graduate, get
married , have her first child, or all the important things a parent hopes and dreams to see his child do, ...and this man took all of that away. and
for what reason? I would like to know if people who do this are being studied , to find out why they do these horrible things.
