Crime Thread

Quote: Gandler

That actually happens with male serial killers. Women have this bizarre attraction to serial killers (seemingly so especially serial killers of women.)

It's actually a huge issue, prisons that hold serial killers get overwhelmed by mail and visit requests from random women across the country who saw them in the news and is obsessed now.

I have never heard of men doing this to women criminals. Or gay men doing it to men, or lesbians doing to to women. It may happen, but not nearly to the same scale. It's mostly an issue with straight women, they are obsessed with violent males.

there has been more than one incidence of female guards and even female psychologists on staff who have helped prisoners escape

Probably still there but early days of internet there was a site meetaninmate.com where you could pay to get a female prisoner pen pal. I do not think men get obsessed in the same way, more maybe they think she is decent looking and will need help when she gets out. Prison mail order bride.

I toured a county jail once and the guy mentioned the tier we were on which was empty was women the week before. Of course there was the comment about too bad we missed them, the screw said, "Don't be, you are probably allergic to HIV."

A 19-year-old McDonald’s worker from Texas has been arrested after allegedly engaging in a fraudulent scheme that targeted customers paying by credit card.

The Springtown Police Department (SPD) shared on social media that Giovanni Primo Blount, 19, of Poolville, was arrested on Sunday, Jan. 18, after allegedly charging customers twice when purchased items at McDonald’s in Springtown.

Police allege he would process legitimate customer payments and then would “tap” their credit card on a personal device, “fraudulently charging an additional $10–$20 per transaction.” Authorities noted that the money was “routed to an account under his control.”

Mercy Brown, vampire

>>>

Mercy Brown (1872–1892) is known as New England's last vampire, active in Exeter, Rhode Island. The late 19th century saw a vampire outbreak in New England.

The Family Tragedy: Mercy's mother (Mary Eliza) and sister (Mary Olive) died suspiciously in the 1880s. In 1891, Mercy and her brother, Edwin, fell ill. On March 17, 1892, villagers exhumed the bodies of the Brown women. While her mother and sister were decomposed, Mercy’s body—buried in Jan 1892—remained well-preserved, which locals interpreted as vampirism.
The Heart and Ashes: Her heart and liver were removed and burned on a nearby rock. The ashes were mixed into a tonic for her brother Edwin, who unfortunately died shortly after, on May 7, 1892.
Lasting Impact: Mercy is buried in the Chestnut Hill Cemetery in Exeter, RI. The event is a famous case of vampires, with reported links to inspiration for Bram Stoker’s Dracula.

I plagiarized that from the googlebot answer to who she was, altering words to make it sound like actual vampire activity. The real outbreak was TB and the real crime was abuse of a corpse

It's bizarre to me how many discarded gloves were found near the Guthrie house. When I am out and about with my dog or hunting or fishing or whatever I do not expect to find discarded gloves!!

I don't really want to start a UFO thread

OK, so it's a journalist hyping this up, maybe a nut. And the NYP article can't get it right where he disappeared, saying New Mexico while blurb says Nebraska. But this guy was a Major General

WTF
Im shocked
Story just broke.
Ritchson rides through an upscale neighborhood on motorcycles with his 2 kids
Neighbor complains about the noise and disruption
This isn't the first time these 2 have words over Ritchsons motorcycle
Ritchson just starts wailing on the neighbor in front of his own kids
Huge swinging blows that connect
Pretty shocking because it's so one sided and brutal
Maybe showing off in front of his kids?
What a Neanderthal
I'm thinking roid rage
