Wow! Does anyone know if there is fund being established to help the child financially - I mean she was so amazing and will be emotionally wiped out for some time!

There must be something - some way to help...

Wonder if that dispatcher gets a commendation - That was a brilliant piece of work.

Deputies believe he broke into the Hernlen home, which is just outside city limits, shortly before 3 a.m. and shot the couple as their daughter slept in the next room. Johnson then returned to his Swan Avenue residence and killed himself, deputies said.
From the mouths of babes. When I first heard this I was shocked at the call.
But I felt better knowing, at least, 5-year-old Tia was spared her death.
Down right dirty shame.:(
