(June 15, 2008)--The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation says it has received many responses after releasing a sketch of a possible witness to the shooting deaths of two girls last weekend.

The person is described as an American Indian male, about six-feet tall, with black hair and a ponytail stretching to the small of his back.

He was seen standing near a white Ford or Chevrolet pickup truck with an Oklahoma license tag near the time the two girls were found shot to death.

Investigators have struggled to determine a motive in the killings of 13-year-old Taylor Paschal-Placker and 11-year-old Skyla Whitaker.

One of the victim’s grandfathers discovered the girls’ bodies on a rural road after the two best friends failed to return home from a walk in the small town of Weleetka.

Funerals for the girls were held Friday.

Do you realize how many 6 foot tall American Indians with dark hair and a ponytail there are in Oklahoma?

I hope and pray for this family that the guilty are found, tried, and are given the max penalty. Justice cannot be served enough for these two little girls.
