CAPE GIRARDEAU, MO (KFVS) - Kora Jud-Nichols sent us this picture of a flag in Cape Girardeau County Park on September 11.

"I was standing under the flag wishing the breeze would pick up so I could get a picture of the flag unfurled,open, and floating free," said Jud-Nichols. "After waiting a while, the breeze started to open the flag, so I looked up with my camera and happened to capture this beautiful picture!"

The flages were provided by the VFW.

Various Boy Scouts from around the area helped raise all 400 flags.

Affidavit: Waller confessed to father days after Jacque's disappearance

According to a supplemental affidavit submitted Monday, Clay Waller's father says Clay went to him a few days after Clay's estranged wife's disappearance and confessed to killing her.

Clay Waller had another court appearance Monday.

It was a continuance from last Thursday's detention hearing, during which Assistant United States Attorney Larry Ferrell released details surrounding the disappearance of Waller's estranged wife Jacque.

The federal prosecutor is trying to convince the judge that Waller should be held without bond because Ferrell says evidence indicates Waller is responsible for the woman's murder.

Because of federal rules, a deposition is not allowed in this type of hearing.  Instead, the judge allowed the supplemental affidavit of Waller which was provided by an FBI agent.
