Globe offers coverage of Eddie Salazar Jr. funeral

Today's Joplin Globe offers Greg Grisolano's coverage of the funeral of Eddie Salazar Jr. Grisolano's article begins this way:

For the town of Carthage, grief has become the universal language in the wake of the death of 8-month-old Eddie Salazar Jr.

“When you get a case that starts out like this, and everybody is looking for the child, I really think people get attached to the child,” said Carthage police Chief Greg Dagnan. “And then when you discover that the child is dead, it makes a really big impact on the community. For our community it’s an extremely significant event and anywhere you go it’s the topic. It’s a tragedy.”
