11 Year Old Sarah Foxwell Murdered





In a Press Conference held at 6 PM tonight, Sheriff Lewis announced the murder of the 11 year old Sarah Foxwell. Her body was found on Hampton Court, off Melson Road.

While we do have additional detailed information on this case, it was announced that it is an ongoing investigation and that information will not be exposed, probably until a 6:00 PM or 11:00 PM Press conference can be held so the MSM can share in the knowledge of such said information without working for it.

To Sarah's Family, may she rest in peace. My heart is absolutely broken, I'm tired and I'm taking a day or two off.

Sarah Foxwell Has Been Found

Sarah Foxwell has been found. Sheriff Lewis will be holding a press conference at 6:00pm at Perdue Stadium.

Thank you, to all for your prayers, vigilance, thoughts, concern and participation.

God Bless you all.

Sarah Foxwell - UPDATE

A press conference will be held at 6:00 p.m. at Perdue Stadium.

Melson Road Closed

At this time Melson Road is closed off to all traffic including residents. The command units have relocated to this area.

Please do not go to this area rubbernecking. Everyone is truly concerned but we need to let Law enforcement officials do their jobs. None of us want to jeopardize their case in any way.

More to come...

UPDATE: A farm located in the area of Melson Road and Hampton is being heavily searched at this time.

From the Command Center

Mike said "we have found nothing" He is also asking people to put a red ribbon on their mailbox showing they have searched their own property because people know their property better than they do.

They are concentrating their efforts on Morris Leonard Road and north to the Delaware line. They have had full cooperation from the Delaware State Police including use of their helicopter. A Senator from Delaware has offered all personnel and whatever else is needed.

Mike Lewis stated several new victims of Leggs have come forward.

All Search Teams Sent Home

Joe just called in and said everyone was sent home from the Stadium. Mike Lewis and Ernie Leatherbury are up in Trooper 4 at this time.

We are being told the press conference scheduled for 2:00 has been rescheduled until 2:30.

We'll keep you updated.

Watch NBC News Tonight & Tomorrow Morning


SBYNews images from today will be featured on NBC News tonight at 6:00 PM and 11:00 PM. I was just informed they'll run it again tomorrow morning as well.

3,000+ Volunteers Showed Up Christmas Morning To Search For Sarah Foxwell






There were between 3,000 to 4,000 volunteers that showed up at Perdue Stadium at 6:30 this morning and hundreds more continue to show up throughout the day so far. As you can see from the photos above, thousands were inside the stadium while thousands more were still lining up and signing up to get in.

At one point, (as many of you know) we ran out of bottled water and wouldn't you know it, as soon as everyone heard, people came in, (in some cases by the truck load) and delivered at least 600 cases of water, THANK YOU! Culligan, Shore Water and Canada Dry showed up almost immediately in trucks, it was just unbelievable.

Food is a big priority right now, (also mentioned earlier). Look, I just can't thank you folks enough. Just think about this for a minute, if you will. This is Christmas Day and literally thousands upon thousands of people are doing everything in their powers to help look for this child. May God Bless You All.

I have to get back to work but while I don't want to speak for Sheriff Lewis, Davis Ruark, Earnie Leatherbury and Ivan Barkley, I will say these people, (as well as all law enforcement officers) are overwhelmed and humbled by your support. I have stood there throughout each day and listened to them share their thanks and each one of you should know that. They are working so hard to find this young child and I can just tell you they truly appreciate each and every one of you.

Hopefully I have some news to share with you soon. Merry Christmas Folks.

UPDATE: They need paper goods at Perdue Stadium. Whatever you've got, paper plates, napkins, you name it, they need it. Thanks Folks!

Leave Politics Out of This - For Now

Please, check your politics at the door. I'm sick of reading comments sent in that are nothing but a bunch of political stabs at each other. Stop sending them, please. Right now I don't care if it's a dem, rep, lib or con issue, all I care about is finding this child.

Please fight your political battles at another time on another post, another day.

Thank you.

Request from Command Center

Authorities are asking everyone to search their own properties at this time. They have also asked that a red flag of some sort be posted on the property searched.

Rain is moving in and will make a mess of things. Please go out and search your yards, fields and farms.

Station 7 Needs Supplies at Stadium

Food is needed to help feed the 3,000 to 4,000 people that are volunteering in the search for Sarah Foxwell.

Station 7 has the ability to cook food such as hamburgers, hot dogs etc. If you bring hamburgers or hotdogs please bring rolls to go with them. Station 7 has bread to make sandwiches if you want to donate lunch meat and cheese, mustard, mayo. ketchup, peanut butter, and jelly. They are also in need of aluminum foil. Candy bars or anything along the lines of ready to eat foods.

Help Needed at Shorebirds Command Center

They are running out of water at the Shorebirds Stadium. Anyone that can donate bottled water is asked to bring it to the trailers by the main entrance. If you can help with this, please do. It is greatly appreciated and much needed.

UPDATE: They are also looking for donations of food. If you can donate anything to help feed all involved in the search for Sarah Foxwell, please take any food donations to the Station 7 trailer. Station 7 has been cooking and feeding people since they moved to the stadium and are running low.

UPDATE: Canada Dry has just donated 50 cases of water and is having them delivered at this time. Sharp Water just pulled up with a pickup load of bottled water. Many individuals have also dropped off cases of water. The kindness and generosity of our community is inspiring. To say Thank you, seems so trite.

UPDATE: A lady just called and said she purchased bottled water at a local convenience store and was charged the per bottle price for a case of water. Purchase price $37.00 per case.

UPDATE At this time Station 7 is asking that foods donated be prepared foods,or sandwiches. They are preparing for lunch at this time.

Message from the Salvation Army

The volunteers and staff of the Salisbury Corps of The Salvation Army extend a heartfelt thank you to the hundreds of volunteers who braved rain, snow and bitter cold to ring a bell this year. Thanks to you, more families, seniors, individuals and especially children will know the joy of Christmas.

To each and every one of you, we pray you have a Blessed Christmas and a healthy, happy and prosperous New Year!
