[Christine]

Just heard on the news that they found her body in a shallow grave on an abandoned farm. That's sad.

Oh, how terrible!!

I can't wait to hear what that 'nutjob' who is a person of interest has to say. Apparently, in this guy's house they found a photo of this farm and it caused the police to search it. The farm is about 50 miles away from the college.

Well, unfortunately, it seems that the girl sought out this guy.

Which is not an excuse.

I've been following this case too.

Her poor mother.

So sad. Prayers for her family & friends.

I'll never understand why some people do this.

Probably not what you're looking for, but you can go here for mostly all the answers you might have.

No, it's not an excuse but I did want to point out that this was not your typical "abduction" case.

She was a 17-y/o freshman at Virginia Commonwealth University. She had only been there a week or so and she disappeared.

Turns out she had some type of intimate relationship with this 38 year old guy, Ben Fawley. She was also hanging out with skateboarders too. When Fawley was questioned, he admitted to having a sexual relationship with her and I guess there was internet stuff to back up that the two knew each other. Fawley claims that Taylor had been to his apartment the night she disappeared and they had sex.

When police search Fawley's apartment, they found quite a bit of very serious child pornography, lots of unusual sex toys (they were not allowed to describe some of them on TV) such as shackles, ships, chains, etc. Anyway, this guy is one weird dude. They could find no evidence of foul play though.

But, I guess they did find a picture of this farm in his belongings (this was not released to the media). They decided to search the farm today.

So sad! My heart goes out to anybody involved.

Having a 17yo college freshman it really hit close to home. It's every parents nightmareand it breaks my heart. I feel so bad for her family and friends.

 

[luvwinnie]

Oh, no, I"ve been worried about her since I first saw "MISSING STUDENT IN VIRGINIA" on my TV screen and I felt so sick since my niece is also a freshman in VA. So so sad.

 

[Mimi Q]

Such a sad and tragic outcome.

I've been researching and reading on this case for about 2 hours now on local message boards, court tv message boards, and Taylor and Ben's webpages. I goto VCU so I've been intrigued by this story.

The site where the body was found today was the home of a former "love interest" of Fawley's. He had posted pictures of the exact barn where Taylor was supposedly found today.

This is an open and shut case.

I wanted to add to my original post and forgot--it has not been confirmed that this is Taylor Behl's body; however, a family member told our local news reporters that they are 99% sure that it is her. Still, even this morning, no confirmation yet.

 

[chris1gill]

OMG, I am so sorry for her parents, and for her as well The fact she was found a barn he prominently displayed? That's shuts this case, I just can't believe it... what the heck was going through his mind

And, that's it, my kids are commuting to school at that age...
