Katherine Olson family feels bad for craiglist killer
Apr 2nd
Michael Anderson the Craiglist killer takes life for no reason!
“I preach, I teach the value of forgiveness. I live by it. I think forgiveness is a tool for healing relationships,” Olson told TODAY’s Meredith Vieira Thursday, the day after he and his family watched 20-year-old Michael John Anderson sentenced to life in prison without parole for the October 2007 murder of Olson’s daughter, Katherine Olson.
Olson, 24, went to Anderson’s home in response to an ad he posted online at Craigslist. Identifying himself as “Amy,” Anderson had said he needed a baby sitter. According to police reports, when Olson arrived at the home, Anderson shot her in the back, bound her legs together, stuffed her in the trunk of her car and drove the car to a nearby park, where he abandoned it.
Quickly dubbed the “Craigslist killer”, the crime shocked the Minneapolis area and focused attention on the dangers of the Internet.
