How can this happen?

*Update: 11/13/07 - Parents are to be indicted and may face the death penalty.

This is the sweet face of Riley Ann..also known as Baby Grace, she was 2 years old when she died, her body found drifting in a barrel in a body of water.

My heart is breaking. I feel sick. I don't understand this world we live in where a person can harm a child let alone kill her in such a violent manner.

Kimberly Dawn Trenor, the 19 year old mother of Riley admitted to police that she and her new husband, Royce Clyde Zeigler (Riley's STEPFATHER) killed Riley and then kept her body in a shed for two months before disposing of her body in a bay.

If you don't want specifics, please stop reading here.

Riley's last day on earth must have felt like a horrible nightmare, how a 2 year old can understand what is happening to her as she is being killed is too difficult to imagine, add to that that your mother is not protecting you, but allowing it to happen just kills me.

First I want to say what a true disappointment Riley's mother is to all women and mothers and the sheer selfishness of such a person should not be overlooked or dismissed. This woman met her future husband and the future murderer of her beautiful child, ONLINE while playing WarCraft, she then moved her child from Ohio to Texas so that she can live with this low life piece of trash. This man by the name of Royce Clyde Zeigler insisted that Riley call him "SIR" and that she be forced to say "please", "yes sir" and "no sir" and he asked Kimberly that when Riley forgot to say these things that she should then beat her with a belt.

The fact that this was a 2 year old child barely getting her vocabulary together was beyond this idiot's IQ.

He eventually suspected that Kimberly was not enforcing his rules upon Riley and so he stayed home from work one day to observe her behavior. He was not happy about Riley's progress. He then beat her severely with leather belts, filled up a bathtub and repeatedly forced her head under the water, over and over again and then finally picking her up and throwing her against a wall. All the while Kimberly watched.

Riley was dead and they already had a plan to cover it up. They forged some documents and told family and friends that a social worker took Riley away because of suspected sexual abuse. Then they continued to live their happy WarCraft playing pathetic lives.


Until Riley showed up months later on a fisherman's boat.




Currently, Royce Clyde is saying his wife is innocent of the murder and he was responsible for everything - OH HOW HEROIC.

Again it may be beyond his IQ to understand that any mother who can watch her sweet little girl be killed by a man and then help to dispose of the child and then continue to live and love this man is just, if not more to blame for her death than he is and she deserves to be burned a live in front of a crowd of women who can't have children and would have given anything to have a beautiful baby like baby Grace.




Somewhere out there right now a child is being abused and hurt or murdered, this story is just one of many.

Beauty and the Beast. Where is Stacy?

*Update 11/13/07 - Drew Peterson set up a website asking people to donate money so that he could pay for his lawyer/defense and any money left over will go to his children in case he is sent to prison. How can he walk around with balls that big? I think it is really funny since he has not been arrested yet and there is no sign of a trial. I thought she ran off with another man DREW?

*Update: Investigators are searching an Illinois canal for clues on missing Stacy Peterson. A new search warrant was issued for the Peterson home.

I felt the need to start a new post regarding Stacy Peterson. If you would like to read my first post regarding this case, please scroll down.

Stacy Peterson is missing. She is 23 years old, quite beautiful and the mother of two young children. Her husband who is 30 years older (pictured above with Stacy and fooling around with the reporters in front of his home) says he and Stacy were fighting on the night of Oct. 28 and she left the home taking only a bikini and $25,000 in cash they had in a safe. She took off in her car and later called him and told him she was leaving him and going on a "little vacation" but more importantly that she has found someone else. Apparently, despite his history of jealousy and stalking of his 4th wife (yes his 4th, his 3rd wife died in a mystery accident) Drew Peterson was ok with her theft of $25,000 in cash and her abandonment of him and his children. He just wants to resign from the police force and enjoy his $6,000 a month pension with his kids and his motorcycle.

To Drew's dismay her family especially her sister, were not as ready to dismiss Stacy. His story then continues and he says when Stacy calls him she tells him to pick up her car from a parking lot at an airport with NO commercial flights. The airport within walking distance of their home. He did just that and then went home and decided to go on with his life.

Stacy's sister, after circling the neighborhood for hours, calls police and files a missing persons report.

Stacy has been missing for a month now. Drew Peterson laughs on camera, he acts like life is grand and the pesky media are just a bunch of idiots there to entertain him. He makes funny faces in the camera, he flirts with reporters, when asked if he is worried about Stacy or if he is helping in the search he says "he and his kids have more important things to worry about." As if their mother is some meaningless twit they could care less about.

There has been no sign of Stacy, no call to her family, no sign of her injured, no lover discovered, nothing. She is just gone and her husband thinks the fuss being made over it is really funny.

Recently, a neighbor reported seeing him and another man removing a large blue barrel from the home and loading it in his SUV. The man has come forward as Drew's stepbrother, a troubled man with drugs, emotional and alcohol problems littered through his past. The same day Stacy was last seen, he claims he helped Drew move this barrel from the couple's bedroom and that it felt "warm". He then says Drew took him to a coffee shop and left him there with a cellphone instructing him NOT to pick it up if it rang while HE DREW went to take care of a few things. The phone did ring while Drew was away and the name on the caller id read "Stacy" but per Drew's instructions, he did not pick it up. Drew returned and took his helpful stepbrother home and the next day this troubled man overdosed on antidepressants, but lived to tell about the barrel. Drew paid him a visit at the hospital.

No one knows what was discussed.

Drew denies the barrel story and everything his stepbrother has said. He hopes we all understand that you can't listen to an emotional person like his brother, like Stacy, like all of his wives, like Stacy's entire family, like every woman who has a menstrual cycle.

It certainly looks like Drew Peterson is a horrid person and that Stacy will never be found. My heart breaks for her family.

Here is the most recent video of him and his strange behavior - he is confronted with the barrel story and he says "No one helped me do anything in such a matter" - in what a matter then DREW? WHERE IS STACY!!: http://http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/chi-peterson_28nov28,1,3851839.story

Trusting little girls and evil adults?

I come across a lot of stories about missing or abused kids and it really pains me, I want to reach out and help save these kids or work to get the evil bastards behind bars and I have even reached out to many organizations hoping to volunteer. The stories that really send me into an angry rant are the ones where the culprit is the mother's boyfriend or a drunken stepfather.

I just can't understand how a mother can leave her little girl with a guy she just met or a husband she knows likes to push them around and get drunk. I read these stories of women leaving their little babies or daughters with the current low life in their life. Please if you have a daughter teach her how to be cautious as well. When I was little my grandmother put fear in me, she would say to me, "Don't talk to strange men, or sit on the laps of men, even the ones you know, don't play with adults by hand and if someone ever does anything to make you scared of them, run!" - This is great advice for a kid to hear, but what happens when the very people who are supposed to protect you leave you in the care of an evil waste of flesh? Where do you run? Who do you scream for?

This is the story of Rowan Ford - 9 years old.

Rowan's mother had to work a night shift and left her daughter int he care of her 25 year old husband. Her, husband, David Spears says he last saw Rowan at about 10:45PM that night, after which he and two friends went out on the town and left Rowan alone in an "unlocked house" until midnight, he made sure police new the house was "unlocked". Upon his return he states he did NOT check on the girl.

Now it gets better. He then calls his mommy and asked to borrow her car for a while. His mother comes over to the home and lets him use her car while she waits in the same home that Rowan supposedly is sleeping in, but she does NOT check on the little girl either. Her dear son is gone from 1:30AM until 7:00AM next day! He refuses to tell police where he was and what he was doing for 6 hours.

Rowan's mother gets home from work and finds her piece of crap husband asleep, she shakes him awake to ask where Rowan is. He says he has no idea. (This is the moment when my fist would have met his face)

The search for Rowan began and ended quickly as she was found in a sink hole miles away from home, straggled by an electrical cord. Rowan's good ole step dad and his loser friend have confessed to police that while under heavy intoxication and drugs they took Rowan to a filthy trailer home and raped her repeatedly and then one of them straggled her. They drove around and found the sinkhole and left her there. Together they came up with the "unlocked" door and the "I don't know where she is" excuses, but dip shit forgot his 6 hour drive in mommy's car.

I really hope they suffer in the pits of hell when the syringe is inserted in their arm.

Rest in Peace beautiful angel and be free from the hell of this world.

What did Amanda confess too exactly?

r

UPDATE: DNA from both Amanda and Meredith was found on a kitchen knife taken from Rafaelle's home. Amanda's DNA was found on the handle of the knife and Meredith's on the tip.

Scroll to the end for more updates. http://www.cnn.com/2007/WORLD/europe/11/16/student.murder.ap/index.html


Amanda Knox was studying in Italy. It was a dream come true to be independent and live abroad. She shared a small house with three other girls and recently began a romance with a handsome Harry Potter look-a-like Raffaele (one of her favorite books).

She was a barista at a local bar and was just thrilled to be living such an exciting life. An American in Italy with her entire life ahead of her. At 20 years old she was doing pretty well.


Until one of her roommates, British native, Meredith Kercher 21 years of age, was found dead in the tiny house they shared. Her throat was slashed with some kind of sharp instrument and she was partially clothed.


At first Amanda knew nothing. She and her boyfriend showed up and found the door open and then discovered Meredith was locked in her room dead. They had no idea what could have happened to the beautiful girl.


The police found the room was shut from the inside and a window had been broken where they assumed the perp escaped. It seemed a crazed killer was loose in Perugia Italy.


Until Amanda confessed.


The news reports are leading with the headline "American woman confesses to Italian Authorities" - but what did she confess to exactly??


According to Amanda she thinks, her boyfriend, along with the manager of the bar where she worked decided they wanted to have some fun, they were drinking and then went home to hang with Meredith, but she can't be sure if Meredith was there when they arrived or if she showed up later, she also can't recall if her boyfriend was there either, however she is sure Patrick, the manager of the bar where she worked was there.

According to Amanda Meredith and Patrick took a liking to each other and went off together into Meredith's room. Amanda now stood alone in the kitchen and she was drunk and her head hurt, but she could hear screams coming from Meredith's bedroom and then a thump. She couldn't remember if her boyfriend was there or not, but she did remember putting her fingers in her ears so that she wouldn't hear the screams. She then only remembers waking up in her boyfriend's bed. She returns home to find the door open and blood droplets in the bathroom, she calls out for Meredith....silence. Amanda then gets scared and goes back to her boyfriend's house and tells him about the blood. He admits that he just smoked a joint upon her return. They both return to the house and find Meredith dead.


The media however, is reporting that Amanda and her boyfriend (Raffaele) along with Patrick a married father of two, wanted to have a "violent orgy" with Meredith and when Meredith refused, she was killed. I am not sure where this information came from or how the police came up with it, but it seems to be their theory. Could this be true?

Police say they intercepted a call between Amanda and her boyfriend, in which Amanda says, "Raffaele, I can’t do this any more, I can’t keep this up." - Police took this to mean her original story was a lie. At first her boyfriend said that Amanda was with him all night, and that they both discovered the body together, then retracted and said he was being untrue.

Here are a few of Amanda's quotes, I have never heard of so many "i thinks" and "i don't remember".


"Patrick and Meredith went off together into Meredith’s room while I think I stayed in the kitchen. I can’t remember how long they were in the bedroom together, I can only say that at a certain point I heard Meredith screaming and I was so frightened I put my fingers in my ears.” She claimed she had had a lot to drink and had fallen asleep (hmmm in the kitchen!).


She added: “I’m not sure whether Raffaele was there too that evening but I do remember waking up at his house in his bed" (so she is not sure how she got to his house or if he was even there at all, but she remembers screams and putting her fingers in her ears?)


"This affair has profoundly upset me and I'm very frightened of Patrick, the African guy, the owner of the Le Chic pub where I occasionally work," she told investigators. (way to throw the black guy under the bus, why didn't he kill Amanda too, she was the only witness and was apparently drunk and asleep on the kitchen floor?).


"I don't remember if my friend Meredith was already there or whether she came later. What I can say is that the two of them (Meredith and Patrick) went off together." she added.


"Patrick wanted her (Ms Kercher)," she said. "Patrick and Meredith went off together into Meredith's room while I think I stayed in the kitchen. I can't remember how long they were in the bedroom together, I can only say that at a certain point I heard Meredith screaming and I was so frightened I put my fingers in my ears. I don't remember anything after that, my head is really confused.


The Boyfriend Raffaele QUOTES:


"I don't remember what she was wearing or if she was wearing the same clothes she was wearing when we said goodbye before dinner. I don't remember if we had sex that evening. The next morning we woke around ten and she told me she wanted to go home to have a shower and change her clothes.


"She went off about half past ten and I went back to sleep. When she went off Amanda took an empty plastic bag, telling me it was for dirty washing. She came back around half past eleven and I remember she changed her clothes."

"In my former statement I told you a load of rubbish because I believed Amanda's version of what happened and did not think about the inconsistencies." (so he is saying she is a liar).

Interesting info: Amanda wrote a short story on her myspace page regarding date rape in which one brother confronts another about raping a girl. It was very interesting, but then again that doesn't make her a murderer.

I just can't imagine three people who seem fairly normal trying to force someone into a violent orgy and then killing her when she refused. I especially can't understand how a seemingly normal girl like Amanda could be a part of something like that.

*Info taken from the following websites: http://www.timesonline.co.uk/

*Update: *Quotes and update taken form courttv.com

The BBC is reporting that a knife "compatible" with the wound to Meredith's throat was found this morning during a search of Rafeale Sollecito's house in Perugia. Forensic experts are testing it for fingerprints and DNA evidence.

Bodily fluid present on Meredith's chest suggested a male attacker; however, a footprint found in a nearby pool of blood appeared to have been made by a small woman's shoe. During a sweep of the property, investigators found Meredith's cellphone discarded in a nearby garden, covered in bloody fingerprints, along with a blood-soaked handkerchief.

Apparently the murder weapon is thought to be a penknife.

Meredith's body indicated the presence of two different men prior to her death.
It is noted that Meredith was sexual active before her death, but that it may not have been rape. The lead pathologist then added that she had bruises and that it was indeed proof that a struggle occurred.

Examination of her body also revealed that she might have been tortured before dying, due to multiple cuts found on her body and the amount of blood lost.

Amanda Knox, Rafaele Sollecito and Patrick Diya Lumumba, 37 are in a Perugian prison on suspicion of conspiracy to commit manslaughter and conspiracy to commit sexual violence.

I real feel terrible for her family:

"Words cannot even begin to describe how we feel right now, other than utterly devastated at the tragic loss of our daughter and sister Meredith. Nothing can prepare you for the news we received on Friday evening, and it has taken this long for us to feel able to express our thoughts.

"Mez, as she was fondly known to us and those who knew her, was someone very special - a 21-year-old student, who was into her studies, worked hard and enjoyed spending time socializing with her friends and family.

"As anyone who had been lucky enough to have known her would testify, she was one of the most beautiful, intelligent, witty and caring people you could wish to meet. Nothing was ever too much effort for her - a loving daughter and sister and a loyal friend. We feel it is no exaggeration to say that Meredith touched the lives of everyone she met with her infectious, upbeat personality, smile and sense of humor.

"... We would like to appeal to anyone who may feel they have any information, no matter how trivial it may seem, to contact their local police and to help us bring to justice the person who has destroyed so many lives."

*Update - Nov. 13 2007 - Amanda Knox changes her story.... again.

Apparently Amanda Knox has now reverted to her original statement that she was at her boyfriend's house all night and only discovered her friend was in trouble the following day upon returning home. Basically, she is saying she made up the part about seeing Patrick and Meredith together and about hearing Meredith dying. The only problem is her boyfriend said he didn't see Amanda from 9PM to 1AM. Another problem - they have some type of surveillance that shows Amanda was at the home. It seems that the killer or killers will be brought to justice anyway since Meredith had hair and skin clenched in her bloody fist. There is loads of physical evidence. It seems the killers or killer was too drunk or stupid to clean up.

Also worth noting: It seems they found fresh fecal matter in the toilette that does NOT belong to any of the three suspects. I think it may belong to another room mate, but looks like they are looking for a fourth suspect that had the nerve to take a shit after murdering a young woman. That makes absolutely no sense.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2007/11/12/wkercher112.xml

Updated 11/16/07: DNA found on a knife at Raffeale's home, Amanda's DNA on the handle of the knife and Meredith's on the tip:

"Police say the knife they found had been cleaned using bleach but that would not have removed any traces of DNA. (oops, someone doesn't watch Courttv)

Detectives said that signs of bleach were found all over Sollecito's flat, indicating that someone had recently cleaned it meticulously. (double oops, cleaning with bleach is a clear sign that something nasty was spilt)

A blood soaked sponge was also found there. It is thought that forensic tests have not yet linked Patrick Lumumba to the scene. (How can you forget a bloody sponge? - It is looking really good for Patrick).

His lawyer, Giuseppe Sereni, said: "There will be no traces of Patrick's DNA at the house because he was never there." - (I think I am starting to believe this.)

There were also rags at the crime scene linked to Amanda and Raffaele.

*Update: 11/20/07 - 4th suspect arrested.

21-year-old Rudy Hermann Guede was arrested in Germany. His DNA, a bloody finger print and poop found in the toilet matches everything that is him 100%. He is a friend of Amanda and Raffaele as well as a customer at Patrick's bar. He is also a drug dealer. Now this makes a lot of sense. A drug dealer friend who supplies them with drugs. The reports now indicate that Meredith was not killed on her bed, but instead was forced to kneel in front of a wardrobe and was stabbed in the throat, then she was dragged to the bed and left to bleed to death for 2 hours. She was unable to call out for help because of her injuries.

Apparently this piece of trash Rudy posted on his facebook page that he knew he was a suspect and was going to turn himself in because the police will put out a "wrong profile" of him. does he mean that he wants to set the record straight so that people do nit think poorly of him? I have news for you RUDY - YOUR FINGER PRINTS IN HER BLOOD ON HER PILLOW - is a sure sign that you are a piece of shit.

The question remains, how does Amanda, Raffaele and Patrick fit into this?

Info taken from: http://www.newsweek.com/id/71393/page/1

* Update: 11/26/07 - So Rudy's story is that he went over at Meredith's request for a drink. They had consensual sex and he had a tummy ache so he went to poop in her toilette. As he was pooping he heard the doorbell ring and Meredith opened. He said he then heard her screaming and as he ran out of the toilette (forgetting to flush of course) he literally ran into the killer. The killer was an Italian man and as the Italian man left he told Rudy, "You are in trouble black man!". Rudy then says he went over to Meredith and she whispered the INITIALS of her killer to him...AF. He then says he wrote those initials on the wall using Meredith's blood. WTF!!!! - He then ran off out of fear of being framed. Why would she whisper only the initials? Why not the exact name?

This is his story. This ridiculous string of words is his story. He fails to understand that his hair was clenched in her tight fist. His bloody finger prints on her pillow and no AF scrawlled on the wall.

It has also come to light that the Police have found additional DNA for an unknown woman and man. JUST HOW MANY PEOPLE WERE INVOLVED IN THIS?

I seriously think this was a sex and drug party, where several people were having sex with each other and Meredith was in her room NOT wanting to be involved and somehow this disgusting group overflowed into her room and this RUDY guy took it too far. The massive clean up of the house afterward proves this. The entire house was cleaned with bleach...ALL BUT MEREDITH'S room.

*I will post updates as I find them.

Stacy Peterson

*Updates at bottom: * Person who helped Drew move barrel has been identified.

* New Letter Arrives....*Neighbor sees Drew and unknown man loading a barrel onto his SUV?


At 17 years old you meet a nice 47 year old married man. He listens to your problems. He is a Police Sergeant, therefore, he knows better than to get involved with a 17 year old girl, so you feel his friendship is genuine. He often comes by just to chat and help you sort through your troubles, he then tells you of his troubled marriage and you both sigh with equal dissatisfaction. Slowly, you come to realize that you like his company and you may be falling for this man. You have a crush on this man who has 30 years of experience you have yet to see. Now when he kisses your cheek you feel a twinge of love. Eventually your affair with him is more of a forbidden romance and you swear you are both in love and so it can't be wrong.


He leaves his wife for you.

Or does his wife find out you are pregnant and leave him?

Whatever, he is all yours and he promises to protect you.

You find out he was married 3 times before and now only after 8 days of being divorced from his wife, he marries you and makes you his fourth. It's ok because you are happy and you are carrying his child. The ex-wife however is wanting child support and custody of his kids, he is really stressed out and the ex-wife is just making your sweet new life impossible. He has a temper, but you know he would never use anyone of those guns he keeps in the house for harm.


Luckily, before a court date about child support, his ex-wife drowns in her bathtub. He and some neighbors find her dead in a bathtub with no water in it. The police decide the water must have drained out after she drowned. Because of some pesky rumors about the ex-wife fearing for her life after threats from her ex-husband, your husband is briefly investigated, but eventually cleared.



He is now free to live his life with you, his sweet very young fourth wife. To add to this joy, the kids get their dead mothers life insurance money, in the sum of $1 million dollars.



As the years roll by you realize quickly that he is very jealous and follows your every move, he is convinced his young wife is sleeping around. He makes you use a phone with GPS tracking and follows you when you have lunch with your sister. He is jealous of the time you spend with your loving family. You realize that you were very young when you met him and inexperienced, your family agrees. You research divorce. He is becoming really scary lately and you tell a friend to pray for you.


Now you are missing Stacy.

He says you had a fight and left the house.


He says you ran off with another man.


He says you called him and told him you were ok but that you were not coming back for your children.


He says he found your car at the airport and assumed you left the country with your lover.


He told the police that you are NOT missing, that you left on your own, just like your mother did to you when you were 15.


Where are you Stacy?




*Update - 11/7/07
Police acquired a search warrant for the home Stacy shared with her husband and children. The police were in the home gathering potential evidence for about 90 minutes. No one was at home at the time. They also plan to question her children and reopen the case of the Mr. Peterson's ex wife and they are going to exhume her body. Texas EquuSearch and Tim Miller are now involved in the search for Stacy, they are searching on horseback, through high brush and nearby bodies of water.

*Update 11/09/2007 4:16PM

Drew Peterson is now officially declared a suspect in the disappearance of his wife Stacy Peterson. The case is now about to move into a homicide investigation rather than a missing person case. They must have some evidence.

*Info taken from cnn.com

*Update: Nov. 23

Drew Peterson claims a letter from an anonymous source was mailed to him claiming his wife was shopping in a supermarket in Florida with an unknown man and that she had a "pudge".  I guess we can close this case and move on.  The letter also claims she wasn't shopping, but was standing in the dairy section of the supermarket.  Solved.

While Stacy is staring at milk and rubbing her pudge in Florida, it seems Drew's hefty $6,000 a month pension is at risk. Law enforcement has discovered several violations and crimes he may have committed while he was a police sergeant.  They do not list these violations, but claim they are serious enough.

A new fellow has emerged stating he and Stacy traded several "flirty" emails made in "fun" that her husband may have come across.  His name is Scott Rossetto and he has now appeared before a grand jury to give his testimony.  

Most importantly a neighbor claims to have seen Drew and another man loading a large 35 gallon barrel onto his SUV.  I am most interested in this.

This video of Drew speaking to the media is so disgusting and disturbing, that I just hope Stacy is indeed in Florida, because if she is dead and he did it, then he is evil in its most purest form.

Update: 11/27/07:  There were reports of a neighbor seeing Drew and another man moving a large barrel into Drew's SUV.  Well that person has now been identified.    They have not released the name of this person, but have said this person helped Drew move a large barrel from his BEDROOM down to his SUV.  This person then tried to commit SUICIDE the next day!  Are they getting closer to solving this case?  Was it a barrel of acid?  Is that how he got rid of her small body?  Who is this person who helped him? Why is there a barrel in your bedroom?
