Such a tragic event, my heart goes out to the families and friends of all who were lost Friday Night.I could not even begin to imagine what they are going through.It reminds me of a good friend I lost on the same highway over 13 years ago while I was in High School, she was only 16 at the time of death. The whole school was shook up over the event. I remember they let school out for the Funeral, I wonder if they are going to let school out this time for the funeral.Surely they will.

Just wanted to give a shout out to the administrators of SCL&F. This site is the first thing I came to when hearing of the news. Good job on keeping me updated.

The story is still on the front page of CNN, and is currently the 2nd most viewed headline.

Thanks, strunk25. I'm glad we were able to help in some small way.

All 4 girls will be at Four Oaks in Huntsville, though funeral arrangements are not yet complete.

Every time you would see them, they were always smiling. Always laughing. Most importantly, VERY friendly.
I just ask that every one prays for the families of these 4 girls. I love you, Nikki,Ashley,Jamie&Aleasha
I wish I would've been able to say my last words to them.
Does anyone know when and where they will be having the funeral for these girls?
If so, Please reply.

Thanks. & please keep them in your prayers tonight.

For the record, I haven't been able to find a lot of information out there on the King family from Fentress County. Their tragedy should not be ignored, though we tend to focus on the girls because many of us knew them and their families.

I mentioned earlier that someone told me that Jeweline King's adult child lives in Scott County and that's why they were here Friday night.

If anyone has any information on the King family, please share it with us.

Channel 6 just gave a news blip that they would be speaking with a relative of Jeweline King at 11p.m.
As of right now,they have nothing on their website to post here.
