SUSPECTS EYED IN GRISLY LAUREN GIDDINGS MURDER

DETECTIVES are looking at "several" persons of interest in the grisly dismemberment slaying of Georgia law student Lauren Giddings. The popular 27-year-old's remains were discovered outside her Macon apartment complex after she vanished June 25. The grisly condition of the remains made identification difficult until now. The cause of death has yet to be determined of the pretty blonde who was about to write her bar exams.
So far, the focus has been on the Mercer University student's apartment--popular with law students. Now, the search has been extended further afield.
One police source said: "What we’re trying to do is get statements from anyone who had a connection with her."
Meanwhile, cops have charged one of Giddings' neighbors with burglary for
two unrelated crimes. Stephen McDaniel, a law school classmate of Giddings, is being held at the Bibb County jail. He has not been named a suspect in the horrific slaying. MORE IN THE ATLANTA JOURNAL-CONSTITUTION
