I know Wanchese is in Dare County on Roanoke Island. I was being sarcastic. Still hope the lady is ok though, was not being sarcastic about that.

OMG...wow, I am not suprised, but I am sad to hear what happened, her and her family definitely have a reputation in Dare County. They need to keep Lance locked up, and Kathy, once she gets out, maybe try to straighten up. I am grateful I did. She and her family are in my prayers.

I know Kathy and Lance I lived in wanchese for many years and it is truly sad what has happened here. I feel for Kathy's children. As far as anyone knows right now that Kathy is hanging on. Lance is in raleigh prison right now and is under a 1 million dollar bond. I wish people would update articles more and let people know what has happened.
