Sabrina Stauffenberg went missing while waiting for a ride to church Wednesday, authorities said.
A southeast Illinois man has been arrested in the rape and killing of an 8-year-old girl who went missing outside of her home last week, authorities said.
Glen Ramey, 53, was taken into custody early Sunday morning on charges of first-degree murder and predatory sexual assault, state police announced.
He was arrested nearly four days after Sabrina Stauffenberg vanished while waiting for a ride to church outside of her home Wednesday. Her body was found hours later near a vinegar plant in Olney, the Belleville News-Democrat reported, citing police.
Denise Haley, who the News-Democrat identified as a family friend of the victim, told the paper that Ramey had been dating one of the child’s relatives. Haley, who has started a GoFundMe account to help pay for the girl’s funeral, added that Ramey has mental health problems.
Illinois State Police, which carried out Ramey’s arrest, declined to provide further information on the case when reached by The Huffington Post on Monday.
According to court documents obtained by the News-Democrat, Ramey was charged with battery following an incident in August. He was also reportedly named as a defendant in several orders of protection that were filed by women. Three of those orders were in 2014 and a fourth was this year.
He is not listed as a registered sex offender in the state’s online database.
Ramey is listed online as jailed in Richland County. Bond has not been set.

Nine-year-old Dunia Sibomana was the lone survivor three years ago when chimpanzees attacked him and two playmates near a preserve in Congo. His 4-year-old brother and a young cousin died. Dunia's face was left a frightening mask. His lips were ripped off, his cheek was torn apart and he was left with muscle damage that made it hard to swallow or communicate. In January, Dunia underwent a rare surgery at a Long Island hospital that involved grafting tissue and muscle from his forearm to recreate his lips. He still has a lot of healing ahead of him, but nearly a year later, Dunia is thriving with a host family in Brooklyn. He can once again o...

The Beipanjiang Bridge took three years to build, cost more than $146.7 million dollars, and stretches to be 4,396 feet long. Its four-lane roadway sits nearly two thousand feet over the Beipan River, which it's named after, to connect the Yunnan and Guizhou provinces in southwest China, People's Daily Online reported. It surpassed the 1,837-foot-tall Sidu River Bridge for its world record title. We know what you're thinking: $146.7 million is cheap! And it is! After all, when the Golden Gate Bridge spanning San Francisco Bay was built in 1933 it cost $1.5 billion (in adjusted dollars), and the brand new New Bay Bridge, on the other side of town, ended up costing a whopping $6.7 billion when it was finished i...
