Trial Set Monday In Fort Worth Missing Woman Case
Jury selection begins Monday in the murder trail of a missing Fort Worth woman.
Glenda Furch disappeared in September of last year; Fort Worth Police believe she was murdered. Despite many search efforts and fliers, her body has not been found.
Sundays are difficult for Furch's family; it was the day that Glenda would come over and enjoy a meal. "She was a loving mother, an incredible mother. She loved her family very much, we miss her we want her back" says Latisha Furch, Glenda's daughter.
The trial will be the first time the family will come face to face with the alleged killer, Rodney Owens. He is the man police believe killed Glenda Furch. Latisha just wants to know what happened to her mother. "That's the biggest question we need to have an answer to is where she is." She also wants to know why. "Why did he target her? If he was going to rob her, why not just rob her and let her be?"
Many questions, but the one Latisha and her family desperately need answered is where is her mom's body. It's been one year since they've seen her alive, and the family can't bring themselves to have a funeral without knowing.
"Right now my whole family is at a standstill and we can't do anything. He lays down every night and sleeps... we can't do that."
