Morgan’s father, Dan Harrington said this morning, “Morgan’s mother, Gil, and I are overwhelmingly saddened by yesterday’s discovery, but we are also relieved because our questions can now be answered and we can give our daughter a proper burial.”

He added, “We know that because of the good life Morgan led and the love she created for everyone around her, she is now in a safer, better place. We appreciate everyone’s respect for our privacy at this difficult time and we thank everyone who has helped us through this tragedy and helped us find Morgan.”

Morgan’s body was discovered yesterday and was positively identified by her dental records.

Morgan Harrington, 20, was a junior at Virginia Tech in Blacksburg and disappeared after being separated from her friends during a Metallica concert in Charlottesville.

Police so far have no idea who committed this grisly crime.
