For just a few moments March 7, right before the passage of the hate crimes bill and the long debate over the “heartbeat” abortion bill, the dark shadow of one of the most horrific crimes against children in recent memory passed across the Georgia House chamber.It came before the vote on a bill authored by Rep. Bill Hitchens, a Republican from Effingham County, where the bodies of Mary and Elwin Crocker Jr. were unearthed. Five people, including four family members, have been charged in connection with their torture, starvation and death.
