This happened not far from me, in East Rochester, NY. A little cutie, named Kali Ann Poulton was riding her big wheel outside her town home, when she went missing in 1994. Her mom initially suspected their neighbor, Mark Christie there was no evidence. About 2 years later, after an argument, and with Kali still missing, Christie's wife called police and informed them that HE had confessed to her that he took her, and killed her. Her body was found in an Air Conditioning cooling tank at the factory where Mark worked.
His story was that he had lured Kali into his town home, with the plan to assault her. He then heard her mom calling for her, panicked and choked her to death, later hiding her body and even joining neighbors in searching for her.
After his arrest, it was found that in 1989 (or so) he killed an elderly woman, Viola Manville. Sadly, another man was arrested and convicted for her murder. Professing his own innocence. I will post info on that as a reply to this post.
Christie is still in prison. A couple years later he tried, unsuccessfully, to legally change his name, as he did not like the attention he got as a child killer
