Teen May Be Buried On Birthday

(CBS)  Taylor Behl, the slain Virginia Commonwealth University freshman, may be laid to rest Thursday, which would have been her 18th birthday, her father The Early Show co-anchor Rene Syler.

Behl's body was discovered in a shallow grave last week, a month after she was reported missing.

Police say they found Behl's remains after examining photographs on the Web site of an amateur photographer, who was one of the last people to see Behl alive.

"I don't think that I would be too far off base to say that he is a suspect in this case," Richmond police chief Rodney Monroe said Friday on The Early Show.

The photographer, Ben Fawley, 38, hasn't been charged in the Behl case, but is being held without bond on child pornography counts.

Behl's father, Matt Behl, told Syler Monday her funeral will probably be held Thursday.

"Of course," he said, "this is something we had not planned. But hopefully, if we can, (if) all the arrangements come together, her mother and I will take her to burial on Thursday."
