Police charged man in Des Moines killing

DES MOINES, Iowa - Police have arrested a man in the killing of a Des Moines woman in July. via Quad-City Times

The woman that Allen Killings killed, Margaret Gottschalk,is my biological mother. I never met her because I was adopted and I cried for hours when I had visits with her and Phillip when I was a baby. I had to look at her dead body at the visitation. It's pathetic how horrible people are. I don't know Allen Killings and I don't know why he did this, but it's pitiful that people are so evil.

Yea i got outta jail about 6 months ago DUI and i was in "Killings" unit along with my uncle and i guess killings is a crack head, i hope he suffers in prison. I was wondering though what is this sex abuse charge?
