In January last year, a young mother and her 3-year-old daughter were found dead in their apartment in Columbia, South Carolina, in what a coroner described as one of the most horrific murder cases involving a child he had ever seen.
As police released new details they hoped might help to find the killer of Candra Alston, 25, and her little girl Malaysia Boykin this week, they confirmed for the first time that they were exploring the possibility of a link to Backpage.com.
Detectives in Columbia, who said this week that a computer and other items were missing from Alston's apartment, have never revealed how she or her daughter were killed.
However, the fact that Alston had posted to Backpage.com brought to mind four more recent killings, several states away.
