I believe that the persons who have done this to little chantel crump should pay for her funeral costs.
Give her family two hundred thousand dollars cash.
They must life in prison or hang
them.
They didn’t not give life why they wanted to take other people innocent lives .
We are looking forward for some reasonable settlement in this case

How could someone do this to a child
We need justice for Chantel
We cannot allow her murderers to just sit in prison and continue living
This is not right
