Affidavit details murder of 7-year-old Athena Strand

Surveillance video from Tanner Horner's van shows him taking her inside the vehicle, the affidavit states.

I'll wait for the autopsy but right now I'm not believing that's all he did. You call 911 or go back to the house and find the parent.

[tonyabrookes]

Yes, of course, because strangling someone is the logical next step after you recover them from an "accident". Unreal

[FlyyHigh]

Man plz!! His story makes absolutely no sense! He's disgusting!!

[luckybabe]

Why did he do that?! He should have called 911 and helped her. Killing can’t hide him from everything. It’s even worse.

[rachael]

No. They said she was alive with him for an hour. AN HOUR.

[Cyko..]

I don't believe that is what actually happened. If she wasn't seriously hurt, why not go tell the parents, or drive off and act like you never saw or heard anything?

[aspensky]

he’s such a liar, he didn’t hit her at all

[tanyahale]

I believe there is much more to this story. 😔 such a tragedy.

[BaDazai]

The thing with pedophiles is they never want to admit to their disgusting deeds. He did something ti that little girl that caused her to want to tell her dad. When kids get hurt they'll cry and scream for their parents, he must have surprised attacked her.

I’m not saying this isn’t possible but it wouldn’t make sense to strangle her if she wasn’t seriously hurt. We want an autopsy. This seems illogical

[sammie]

You hit her with the truck she wasn’t really injured so you took her and strangled her. Right

[ohwhataday]

This tears me apart. I have a 6 year old great-granddaughter and can’t imagine the fear the little innocent child experienced. I feel Something else is involved here. This is not the complete story.

[freetorvsta]

Same old story with loopholes. “Oops, some type of accident happened and then I panicked and had nothing else to resort to but killing them”.. yeah right

[Sealust]

One of the reports I heard said he admitted to running her over. He said she said she was okay afterwards, but was afraid she was "going to tell" that he hit her with the truck.

[chipsnotchunks]

I yell at FedEx speeding on my street. Reported them. Still speeding.

[MrsMeza]

There is video of her inside the truck talking to him… wonder what else was on the camera …😢

[SC-peir]

This is so awful. What a beautiful child. Why would he do this? He must have known he'd be caught immediately

[ademango]

In my opinion I think because he accidentally hit her with the truck, most independent drivers loses their contract with the company if the accident is their fault. Most driving companies are very serious about at-fault accidents some even have Zero accident policy. I still don't comprehend why he did an evil and vile act. I think out of desperation he knew he was going to lose his job.

Why is it taking so long for autopsy report?

[audraarndt]

Makes no sense.... weird way to panic.
