Florida police will announce Tuesday that they are closing the 1981 abduction and murder case of 6-year-old Adam Walsh.

The announcement comes 27 years after Adam went missing in a department store. His severed head was found two weeks later.

Authorities will announce that the young boy was murdered by Ottis Toole, a drifter who confessed to the murder before he died in prison in 1996.

Adam is the son of John Walsh, the host of "America's Most Wanted."

Justice delayed is not always justice denied. The Walsh family has always said that they thought this was man guilty of this terrible crime. But I wish that this guy was charged before he died so he could have been found guilty of this heinous crime. The Walsh family have done many things to help improve our laws and catch criminals. And for that I, like many others in our country, am greatly thankful to them. They are a force of positive influence in our country and they are in our thoughts and prayers as they are dealing with their personal tragedy once again.
