Introduction
This blog is a tracking of the murder case of Brittney Gregory by Jack Fuller Jr. for those looking for information.
I had planned to cover the facts as they unfolded, piece together as much of the press and information as I can, since many of the sources of information are
either poorly linked, or disappear to archives (some paid).
At some point I still hope to get some, interviews with some of the players in this case,as well as Brittney's family and friends. I have opted not to even try up until now as I felt there were other places their attention needed to be focused.
While I tried to remain unbiased, once Fuller admitted to killing Brittney, it became impossible for me as a father of a young girl to be COMPLETELY "fair and balanced".
But despite that, all information that I uncover will be found here.
Please feel free to comment, but remain civil. (especially towards each other).

Authorities did not release any information about why they had charged Jack Fuller in the death of Brittney Gregory, or about how he and the girl may have met.
Fuller, of Howell, was being held on $1 million bail, prosecutor Robert Gasser said. A court appearance was scheduled for Monday.
Gregory has not been heard from since the evening of July 11, when she called her mother from her father's house saying she wanted a ride to her boyfriend's home.
Her mother said Gregory's sister would be home in an hour, but when they called back 45 minutes later, there was no answer. When her father's companion, Lori Petersen, returned home later that night, the girl was not there.
Gregory hadn't gone to her boyfriend's home, and did not take her purse or any identification. Authorities said there was no sign of a break-in at her father's town house.
"It looked like she left knowing she was leaving," Petersen told the Asbury Park Sunday Press. "But it looked like she didn't plan on staying away."
Gregory recently finished her sophomore year at Brick Township Memorial High School. Family members have described her as a straight-A student who always wanted to become a forensic scientist.
