2 More Arrested In N.J. Killings



NEWARK, New Jersey (CNN) -- Two people were arrested Saturday in connection with the triple killing in a New Jersey elementary schoolyard, law enforcement sources said.
Five people have been arrested in the case, and police are hunting a sixth.

"We will not rest until this case comes to a point where we know we have all those involved apprehended," Newark Mayor Cory Booker told a news conference Saturday. "We will ensure that the killers are captured."

One of the two arrested Saturday -- Rodolfo Godinez -- was described as a "principal player" in the schoolyard slayings.



Godinez -- a 24-year-old Nicaraguan immigrant -- was arrested in Prince George's County, Maryland, near Washington, D.C., law enforcement sources said.

This is just an example of what happens on a case when the press gets involved. I'm pretty sure that if this case had not gotten national attention there would not have been one arrest made. I have to applaud the authorities on this one. They really stepped up to bat and are making a strong effort to bring the perpetrators of this heinous crime to justice. I know that there is nothing that could ever make these families whole again, but maybe some swift justice could bring them some peace.
