Lord God, we celebrate that authorities have
apprehended whom they believe to be Arizona’s "East Valley Rapist."
With no previous leads on eight cases of sexual assault in the area between
July 1999 and October 2001, we are grateful funding from the Justice
Department’s Sexual Assault Kit Initiative led investigators to John
Daly III. With circumstances and DNA pointing to Daly, three of the
cases are moving toward closure and one is also making good progress. We pray
for the justice system to be swift, accurate and fair in these cases. We pray
for final investigations to go smoothly and for people with additional
information to come forward quickly and courageously. Lord, we pray for the
survivors of these attacks to benefit from the arrest. We pray against
flashbacks and fear, but rather for hope and valor. May all who need to testify
be safe, secure and clear. Lord, we pray for Daly to repent from any wrongdoing
and speak the truth. Lord God, we entrust this entire situation to you in Jesus’
name, amen.
