Title: Who Killed Holly?
Post by: Rick Waldroup on December 08, 2016, 21:21:28

28 years ago, Holly Palmer, 23 years old, was  brutally murdered in Granbury, Texas, a small community 50 miles southwest of Fort Worth.  The crime was never solved.  Every year, about this same time, these signs pop up around Granbury.

Yup. And I like how the paint is runny in the question mark.

Perhaps the cover of a detective novel?

Rick, you captured the deep sorrow and unfulfilled desire to find the murderer without any people or facial expressions.  Poignant image.

Approximately 6000 of these signs could be placed on lawns for 2015 alone here in the U.S.

Photo journalism exists so the rest of us can see the naked truth. You showed us some of that in this image. Thanks for posting.
