‘Finish Sydney’s Run’ challenge takes to social media honoring Sydney Sutherland

Runners across Arkansas are keeping the memory of Sydney Sutherland alive after she went for a jog last Wednesday and never came home.

Her body was found two days later after police say she was kidnapped and killed.

Sutherland’s friends are now running and posting to social media using the hashtag ‘#FinishSydneysRun’ to keep her memory alive.

“I literally would just replay over and over again in my mind Sydney didn’t get to finish this,” said Danielle Wright.

Wright grew up with Sutherland and her family. She says she is going the extra mile to honor the nurse who loved a lot of things, including running.

“Her spirit is just soaring, through every run, through every Facebook share, her story is being told and people are wanting to know who is Sydney,” said Wright.

I have not followed much on this recently. In the first days, the group was public and I read it throughout for a few days but they now made it a "join" and I tend not to do too much of that. There was a lot of local chatter on it.

He sounds like quite the cretin honestly. As to his wife of a few years, I don't know anything that would not be rumor from the page, but the wise thing would be to divorce him with what he is facing without a doubt.

There were people on the page wondering if this was his first and thinking of other missing females in that area. I will STRESS that is speculation/rumor.

However, just generally I do wonder, when it comes to the psyche of someone like this, did he hold in all of these years and then just one day act on his urges/sick whatever or has he done it before...

Some claimed he was always obsessed with Sydney... May she RIP, and see justice; I hope to remember to follow this one to see what the facts actually are.

GOOD! I didn't believe it for a second when it said such was requested that he would be found incompetent. It's good to see that the system works in that respect with those experts anyhow. Letecia Stauch too, TWO competency evals, both found he competent.

This was a horrible crime. I am glad to see someone though that actually pleads guilty, faces it and does not take it all the way through trial and years to come.
