James Hataway Sentenced To Life, Apologizes To Victim
Posted: 6:54 am EDT May 9, 2011Updated: 6:24 pm EDT May 9, 2011

 ::snipping2::
Wearing a jail jumpsuit and sporting a beard, James Hataway sat in court looking very different than he did at his trial, and as his victim looked on, he apologized.

"Her injuries were my fault and I do apologize for what happened. I know that I did not try to kill her, but I am sorry for what did occur," Hataway said in court Monday.

Last month, Hataway was convicted of attempted murder for attacking Clarke in 2008. She showed jurors how he tried to break her neck after she gave him a ride home from a party.

On Monday, a series of Hataway's friends tried to convince the judge that's he's not a monster.

"I've seen women commit acts of violence against him and he's 100 percent gentleman in reply to it," said Hataway's friend, Dallas White.

That testimony drew gasps from family and friends of Tracey Ocasio and Chris George. Hataway is the main suspect in their disappearances.

As the judge sentenced him to life for his crimes against Clarke, they cried.

"If there's any comfort is that he's behind bars and he won't destroy another family like he destroyed our family,' said Tracy's father, Joe Ocasio.

Wow!  I didn't see that one coming...

Prayers for Tracy and the Ocasio family & Chris and the George family that they may receive JUSTICE as well.

P.S. I know this is OT but did they ever confirm or deny the identity of the db found close to where Chris disappeared?

Hey Lovin'  I bet Hataway didn't see it coming either.
I haven't seen anything else about Chris.

2 year since Tracy Ocasio disappearance Last Updated: Friday, May 27, 2011 4:46 AM

 ::snipping2::
Her father Joe Ocasio released a statement thanking everyone for their support.

    I can’t believe that tonight it will be 2 years since Tracy was suddenly taken from our lives, it still feels surreal. I’ll never forget when the search changed from looking for a missing person to looking for her body. I did not want to believe this was happening and as this reality hit us the day Detectives gave us the bad news Liz and I broke down into each others arms and sobbed uncontrollably. It was the worst time of our lives and it still hurts as if it happened yesterday. The unknown of what exactly happened and not being able to find her still haunts us every day. However while thinking about her I wanted to take a minute and thank you all for you for the role you have all played while helping me and my family in our search for her and the justice we seek. The only comfort I feel tonight is that the animal that took her from us will forever be in a dark place behind bars.

    I want to thank you all from the bottom of my heart as the support not only from all of you but from this community has been over whelming during these past two years.

New search for Tracy Ocasio yields no new clues

Last Updated: Friday, August 05, 2011 12:47 PM
The father of Tracy Ocasio has confirmed a new search for clues into his daughter's disappearance more than two years ago.

Joe Ocasio said detectives spent Thursday searching a lake for any sign of the missing Ocoee woman.

Police did not clarify what lake was searched, but said the search did not turn up any new clues.

Joe Ocasio said he was not told ahead of time, because police did not want to put him through an "emotional roller coaster."

Ocasio family marks Tracy's 30th birthday

It is Tracy Ocasio's 30th birthday, but Tracy's family is in no mood to celebrate.

"I am still hoping that the police can find her", Tracy's mother, Liz, tells WDBO's Joe Ruble.  "I know they're following up leads.  I know they're still doing searches."

Tracy went missing back in 2009 after being seen leaving a Metrowest bar with James Hataway--the only person, Liz believes, who knows where Tracy is.

I've always thought that there may be someone out there that had an idea of what happened to Tracy but they were too afraid of Hataway to talk.  Maybe this life sentence will loosen their lips.
