The girl's body has never been found, but police believe her body was stuffed in a suitcase and left in a Tempe garbage bin. The sentencing marks the conclusion of a case that began in October , when Hunter told police that Shockley had disappeared from her Glendale apartment.

During the trial, prosecutors had portrayed Hunter as a liar and manipulator who, after serving a prison sentence in California, used law enforcement to take Jhessye from loving relatives. They argued that Hunter never developed a maternal bond with the girl described by her teacher as "bubbly" and an "emerging leader.

While prosecutors Jeannette Gallagher and Blaine Gadow said it could not be determined how or when Hunter killed Jhessye, they told jurors she put the girl's body in a suitcase and then conned a neighbor into driving her to Tempe so she could sell items Hunter had claimed were inside. The state won convictions of child abuse and first-degree murder against Hunter despite the lack of an eyewitness to Jhessye's killing or the discovery of the girl's body. Prosecutors presented jurors with evidence that contradicted defense attorney Candice Shoemaker's portrayal of Hunter as a desperate mother whose years of incarceration while awaiting trial had prevented her from working on what was most important: finding Jhessye.

Hunter's daughter and Hunter's ex-lover testified about Hunter's corporal punishment of Jhessye. The daughter lashed out from the witness stand at the people she believed tore her family apart—police, prosecutors and a state agency that separated her from her siblings—but also described Jhessye being forced by Hunter to live in a closet.

The state appeared to be veering into minutiae when it painstakingly laid out Hunter's numerous excuses for Jhessye missing more than two weeks of kindergarten before the girl's disappearance. But those became key details when one of Hunter's relatives testified that Hunter had asked him to drive Jhessye to school on one of the days Hunter told school officials that the girl would be absent from school because of ringworm and pink eye. By Louise Boyle. The body of a man who was 'fueled by obsession' to find a legendary gold mine has reportedly been found in the remote Superstition Mountains of Arizona.

Jesse Capen, a year-old bellhop from Denver, disappeared three years ago after heading off to find the 'Lost Dutchman's' gold mine - which has evaded adventurers for centuries. For the intrepid explorer his quest to find the mine, on which he had read more than books and spent all his free time, appears to have ended in tragedy. Quest: Jesse Capen, 35, went missing three years ago in the Superstition Mountains while hunting for the 'Lost Dutchman's' gold mine. Hikers found remains last Saturday in a crevice around 35 feet up a cliff face, deep in the Superstition Mountains.

The discovery was made in a spot about 60 miles east of Phoenix, according to Maricopa County sheriff's spokesman Brandon Jones.

Rescuers had spotted a boot sticking out from the ledge, that was almost impossible to notice. The remains have been sent to the coroner's office for identification but are believed to belong to Mr Capen. An autopsy took place on Tuesday but results are not expected to be conclusive for several weeks.

Left behind: Around a month after Mr Capen went missing, hikers found his tent and backpack in the mountains.

He reportedly shot people who tried to follow him into the mountains looking for riches. There are several routes that have been mapped out to find the mine - but no one has ever succeeded and several have died trying. In the 19th century, around 8, people would try to reach the mine every year - but the number has dropped down to the hardy few. The former Arizona Attorney-General Bob Corbin is among those who have looked for the mine's existence. As with all legends, stories have grown up around the mine - either that it is cursed or has guardian angels concealing the entrance.

Jessie Hunter - Chapter 12 - Story

Mr Capen's mother said he was obsessed with finding the Lost Dutchman gold mine and made dozens of detailed drawings and scoured maps trying to work out its location. A month after Mr Capen disappeared in November , his campsite was found in the mountains, littered with books about his passion. According to rescuers, he had booked into a nearby hotel for a month, then made three or four day trips into the mountains at a time.

Mr Capen, had been an employee of the Sheraton Hotel in Denver for ten years, and had made several previous trips in search of his fortune at the mine. His colleagues said he would work almost constant night shifts and rarely socialized with anyone.

His sole purpose seemed to be his search for the gold mine. X marks the spot: Mr Capen went missing in the mountains three years ago after going in search of the buried treasure. Since the 19th century prospectors have been looking for the 'Lost Dutchman's Mine', around 90 miles east of Phoenix, Arizona.
