Standing Room Only for Funeral of Jersey Bridgeman

Updated: November 27, 2012
It was standing room only at Rollins Funeral Chapel in Rogers for the services of 6-year-old Jersey Bridgeman.
This parking lot was full of cars all here to pay their respects to the Bridgeman family.
Bentonville Police Chief Jon Simpson was there as well as law enforcement from all over, Rogers, Pea Ridge, Little Flock.
No doubt a hard day for the family less than 24 hours before the funeral, investigators arrested the Bridgeman's neighbor, 28 year old Zachary Holly for the murder of their little girl.
Looking back on Tuesday, November 20th, our crew actually ran into Holly the day Jersey went missing and police found her body two doors down from her own home.
Holly was walking around the neighborhood both Tuesday and Wednesday as police were investigating.
Our crew asked him if he knew the family, but he did not want to speak with reporters.
Bentonville police haven't released anything on Tuesday, but that will all change Wednesday when Holly is due in court for a bond hearing at 1:30pm.
Investigators will be releasing the Probable Cause Affidavit that should give a little more insight into the crime.
