Speechless and Shocking … 6 Year old Hannah Mack Was Hanged and Sexually Assaulted (Update: Kevin Anders Arrested)

 What has this world come to? The body of six year old Hannah Mack was found hung in the garage of her families rural Navarro Hills, TX home. Hannah Mack’s autopsy also been determined that the six year old had been sexually assaulted. These crimes against children have become so heinous there are just no words to describe them. We are speechless. The motivation to sexual assault a six year old and then hang her defies all sense of morality.

Authorities have made no arrests or named any suspects since Hannah Mack’s body was discovered by her mother on Monday. They are saying little about their investigation. “I will confirm that the hanging and sexual assault were part of this scenario,” Navarro County Sheriff’s Chief Deputy Mike Cox said. Cox said several people have been interviewed and no one has been ruled out as a suspect.

There have been no arrests nor suspects named by authorities; however, here is an interesting comment. They have asked “caseworkers not to say whether Hannah’s family had been investigated by child welfare officers”. This makes one wonder whether there had been previous investigations into this child’s social welfare.

Police asked state caseworkers to not say whether the girl’s family had been investigated by child welfare officers, said Marissa Gonzales, a spokeswoman for the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services. She characterized the request as uncommon.

Hannah Mack was reportedly last seen sleeping on the couch at 1am by her great grandmother.

Jean Langford, the girl’s great-grandmother, said Dana Mack saw the youngest of her three daughters sleeping on the couch around 1 a.m. before discovering Hannah’s body. She said the family hoped police would be further along in finding the suspect. “(Dana) is just devastated. We all are,” Langford said. “This is the worst thing that’s ever happened to this family. Hannah was our pride and joy. She was our little sweetheart. “What makes this so bad is that we still don’t know who did this awful thing.” Those concerns are shared by the family’s neighbors near Navarro Mills Lake, about 65 miles south of Dallas. They say imaginations in this lakeside community are starting to run wild. Neighbor Pam Gray said she heard Dana Mack screaming early Monday while she went outside to feed her pigs. She and other neighbors said Mack drove about a quarter-mile to the nearby store where she worked after discovering Hannah’s body, pleading for help. (Houston Chronicle)

(Kevin Wayne Anders)

Kevin Anders, the live in boyfriend of Dana Mack, the mother of murdered and sexually assaulted Hannah Mack has been arrested. Anders was arrested on possession of child porn. I guess its not too much of a stretch to figure out what happened here. Kevin Anders was originally listed as a person of interest. Why are we not surprised?

“Computer files obtained during the initial crime scene investigation revealed the presence of pornographic images of children,” said Mike Cox, Navarro County sheriff’s chief deputy.

Mr. Anders is a suspect in the death of Hanna Mack, whose body was discovered by her mother, Dana Mack, on Monday. (Dallas News)
