Jodi Arias Trial- The Uncensored Pictures
When I say uncensored, I mean NO bars blocking anything out. If you’d like to see the pics, and I don’t know why you would…..the link is at the bottom of the post. When you click on the video, the majority covers Travis’ death photos, but from 1:34:45 through 1:41:47 covers the nude photos of both Jodi and Travis. If you must see them, then that’s your business. I warn you! The entire set of pics is graphic and disturbing.
As for the trial; I’ve watched from day one and I’m not convinced by Jodi Arias’ story. I write this blog as an innocence blog, but when I see guilt, I write that too. I see guilt. The gun being stolen from her Grandparents house, all the nude pictures taken the same day as his killing, and Jodi’s penchant for not only lying, but being completely stupid as she does it points every finger right in her face. There are too many coincidences to be dismissed. Notice in the shower pics how she has Travis pose in some weird death poses (Hands across chest, sitting on shower floor).
I’m not an advocate for the death penalty, but I believe Jodi set this man up with sex so she could murder him in cold blood. Once he was shot in the head, it would be easy for anyone to go on a stabbing spree. His throat was also cut ear-to-ear, which leads me to believe the motive was jealousy and rage. We’ll see how it plays out, but unless something grand happens, this woman may well face death.

  More Injustice in Oakland County, Michigan
Yet another in a long line of huge injustices within Oakland County. So Bowman agrees with the jurors? Then he surely agrees with the juror that regrets convicting Jeff. What a lack of justice here. I’m moving out of Oakland County and not a second too soon. God Bless you Jeff, I know you’re innocent. This county has effectively ruined many lives. I’m confident his appeal will free him from this cowardice that is Oakland County, Michigan.
Jeffrey Pyne gets 20-60 years for stabbing and beating mentally ill mother to death
by L. L. Brasier
Jeffrey Pyne, looking pale and stoic, said he just wants to go home.
The former valedictorian and University of Michigan biology student again proclaimed his innocence at sentencing Tuesday, saying he did not bludgeon and stab his mother, Ruth Pyne, 51, to death.
“I continue and will always maintain my innocence,” Pyne told a packed courtroom. “My family, especially my father and sister, want me home so that we can move on and heal.”
But Oakland County Circuit Judge Leo Bowman handed down a 20- to 60-year sentence, exceeding state guidelines. He said he agreed with jurors, who found Pyne guilty of second-degree murder in December.
Bowman also expressed frustration that Pyne didn’t admit his role in the May 2011 killing.
“I believe (that) until Jeffry Pyne acknowledges his role in this crime, it is not safe for him to be free,” Bowman said. “She was bludgeoned; she was stabbed over 16 times. It was brutal. I am satisfied that Mr. Pyne committed this offense.”
Pyne cried when his father, Bernard Pyne, read a letter to the court from 12-year-old sister, Julia Pyne, which said she missed her mother and her brother and wanted her brother to come home.
“He’s a great, great big brother, and I ask you to send him home soon,” she wrote.
Bernard Pyne spoke to the judge before sentencing, saying: “I’m sure my son had nothing to do with this.” Afterward, he called his son’s conviction a farce and pledged an appeal.
But the slaying divided the extended family. Oakland County Assistant Prosecutor John Skrzynski, who tried the case, read a letter from Ruth Pyne’s sister, Linda Jarvis, who attended the trial but was not present for the sentencing.
“I believe Jeffrey is guilty of killing Ruth,” Jarvis wrote. “What I want is for Jeffrey to get the counseling he so seriously needs.”
Pyne was found bludgeoned to death in the garage of the family’s rural Highland Township home the afternoon of May 27, 2011. She had a long history of serious mental illness and had been jailed and hospitalized for attacking her son months before she was killed, records showed.
A citizens grand jury indicted Jeffrey Pyne on a first-degree murder charge in October 2011. Prosecutors argued during the 15-day trial that Pyne, frustrated with his mother’s illness and abuse, beat her to death.
Grand Rapids attorney James Champion argued that the killing was likely committed by a stranger. He declined to comment after the sentencing.
The murder weapon was never found, and there were no eyewitnesses. But there was circumstantial evidence.
Pyne said he was at the nearby home of a former teacher, planting lilac bushes the day his mother was killed. But the teacher told jurors he planted the bushes days earlier. Prosecutors also presented photos of Pyne’s hands taken the day of the killing that showed raw blisters, which they said resulted from Pyne swinging the murder weapon repeatedly and striking his mother in the head and body. Prosecutors said the weapon was likely a board.

The Jeff Pyne Stories by Donna Gundle-Krieg
Here’s a list of stories by Donna Gundle-Krieg related to the Jeff Pyne murder trial in Oakland County, Michigan. Donna’s a great writer with the most interesting and informative stories having to do with the trial, verdict and sentencing of Jeff Pyne. The very first link is the latest story of how a juror actually contacted Jeff’s attorney regretting having convicted him.
These stories will give you an in-depth glance into Jeff’s life along with the entire trial.   I personally do not believe Jeff committed the murder.  I do believe that Oakland County Sixth Circuit Court is the railroad capital of the United States.  Anything for a conviction.
That’s my opinion and I’m sticking to it, but of course you can make up your own mind.

The Making of Behind the Brick 1-20-13
New cover for Behind the Brick
This is the new cover art for Behind the Brick. I’m about 2 months or so from the completion and release of the work. My talented artist has come up with another great cover, which will be wrapped around the entire book. The realism of the bricks brings the work to life. This time, I’ll be adding my In Motion publishing logo on the spine of the book. As I continue to write, I’m getting more adept at stretching my knowledge on how to successfully prepare a book for publication. It’s much more than simply writing. I’ve learned a great deal about editing, re-writing and making sure I release the best product I possibly can. I’m really excited about this book, and I hope you are too.

OMG! Now a Slutwalk?
I think the world is about to blow up…..So now woman walk around half-naked and say “This doesn’t mean I’m saying yes”, “This doesn’t mean I want to be raped”, etc. No woman should ever expect to be raped or molested, but walking around half-nude with an attitude isn’t the answer. I’ll tell you what, read the article, click on the link and decide for yourself. Oy-Vay!!
SlutWalks Sweep The Nation
By Laura Stampler
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/04/20/slutwalk-united-states-city_n_851725.html
Toronto police constable Michael Sanguinetti thought he was offering the key to rape prevention. “I’m not supposed to say this,” he told a group of students at an Osgoode Hall Law School safety forum on January 24, but to prevent being sexually assaulted, “Avoid dressing like sluts.”
Despite Sanguinetti’s subsequent written apology and promises of further professional training, the victim-blaming gaffe heard round the world sparked a movement that began in Canada but is now sweeping the United States and abroad: SlutWalks.
“We had just had enough,” said Heather Jarvis, who founded SlutWalk Toronto with friend Sonya Barnett. “It isn’t about just one idea or one police officer who practices victim blaming, it’s about changing the system and doing something constructive with anger and frustration.”
While Jarvis, 25, and Barnett, 38, initially expected only 200–300 people to show their support, upwards of 3,000 massed on the streets of Toronto on April 3 — some wearing jeans and a T-shirt; others in outfits more appropriate for a Victoria’s Secret fashion show: thigh-highs, lingerie, stilettos — and marched to police headquarters. Their goal: to shift the paradigm of mainstream rape culture, which they believe focuses on analyzing the behavior of the victim rather than that of the perpetrator.
“The idea that there is some aesthetic that attracts sexual assault or even keeps you safe from sexual assault is inaccurate, ineffective and even dangerous,” said Jarvis. She recalled a sign at the march that read: “It was Christmas day. I was 14 and raped in a stairwell wearing snowshoes and layers. Did I deserve it too?”
Since the movement’s inception, the SlutWalk campaign has gone viral. Facebook groups have been emerging to promote satellite SlutWalks in Europe, Asia, Australia and most major US cities. Asheville, Dallas, Hartford, Boston and Rochester will host SlutWalks between now and May 7.
The ubiquity of a rape culture that attributes sexual assault to a woman’s dress or expression of sexuality (both in the court of law as well as in the court of public opinion) helps explain the movement’s widespread resonance and popularity.
In late February, a Manitoba judge condemned a rape survivor in court for wearing a tube top, no bra, high heels and makeup, which he implied had led to her sexual assault. Justice Robert Dewar called the assailant a “clumsy Don Juan” who had succumbed to “inviting circumstances.”
In 1999, Italy’s highest court ruled that a woman wearing jeans could not be raped because it is impossible to remove a pair of pants “without the collaboration of the person wearing them.”
When an 11-year-old was gang raped in Cleveland, Texas this March, a controversial New York Times article noted that the victim “dressed older than her age, wearing makeup and fashions more appropriate to a woman in her 20s,” as if this were a relevant factor in the crime perpetrated against her (the Times later responded to criticism).
“If someone breaks into a house, do you blame the owner for having a house that looks appetizing?” asked Elizabeth Webb, the 24-year-old organizer of SlutWalk Dallas. “I don’t think so!”
Given Dallas’ close proximity to Cleveland, Texas and the fact that April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month, Webb felt it appropriate to organize SlutWalk Dallas, which will take place on April 23. A survivor herself, she feels very close to the issue.
At 18, Elizabeth Webb became a statistic. Along with one in four college women, Webb joined the rank and file of rape survivors. Like 80 percent of victims, she was sexually assaulted by someone she knew — a close friend who drugged her at a party. Like 15 out of 16 rapists, Webb’s attacker never spent a night in jail.
Although she reported the rape the next day (which her Texas hospital required before administering a free rape examination), Webb stopped pursuing the case after succumbing emotionally in the face of the onslaught of questions acquaintances asked with raised eyebrows, questions aimed at challenging the integrity of the victim: What were you wearing? Why did you go to his party? Why did you drink?
“Sexual assault is traumatic, and to add victim blaming on top of that is damaging to the psyche,” said Webb, now 24, who only recently relinquished her sense of self-blame. “I can’t remember what I was wearing, but why weren’t they asking why he slipped something in my drink?”
Those organizing the SlutWalks are personally connected to the cause in varying degrees. Monday’s SlutWalk Orlando was put together by a feminist theory class at the University of Central Florida. Other organizers are survivors themselves.
Nicole Sullivan, 21, one of three organizers of the May 7th Boston SlutWalk, is a survivor. “But you hear people whispering and asking if you’re the right kind of survivor,” said Sullivan, referring to the Whoopi Goldberg school of thought that there is rape, and then there’s “rape-rape.”
Sullivan felt scrutinized for having embraced her own sexuality. “I was told that if I hadn’t owned a vibrator I wouldn’t have gotten raped. It was crazy what people would come up with.”
SlutWalk Toronto’s website states, “Being in charge of our sexual lives should not mean that we are opening ourselves to an expectation of violence, regardless if we participate in sex for pleasure or work. No one should equate enjoying sex with attracting sexual assault.”
An aim of the SlutWalk movement is to reappropriate the word “slut.” “I come from a frame of mind that language is powerful, and you can also change language,” said SlutWalk founder Jarvis, using the word “queer” as an example of a word that was once strictly pejorative but is now a common sexual identifier used by the LGBT community.
The embrace of sluttiness has attracted most of the controversy surrounding the event. Posts to SlutWalk Facebook groups question whether the fishnets and chants “We’re here. We’re sluts. Get used to it!” present at SlutWalk Toronto help SlutWalk’s goals, or set the movement back. Fox News commented that there is “nothing brave” about marching for sluttiness, and a conservative blogger accused participants of being “high off attention.”
According to SlutWalk Boston co-organizer Siobhan Conners, 20, although Boston SlutWalk is expecting approximately 1,000 participants, a counter event called “Pimp Walk” has been planned to take place on the same day at the same time. Conners also finds herself removing pornographic and hateful posts from the SlutWalk Facebook page.
“Not everyone has to chant ‘I’m a slut and I’m proud,’” said Conners. “No matter how you identify, even if you don’t consider yourself a sexual person, we’d like to have anyone who is supportive of creating a more positive environment for women and believes that rape shouldn’t be permitted.”
SlutWalk organizers, both domestically and internationally, hope that the movement creates a global dialogue in which women feel comfortable discussing sexual assault without fear of blame.
“By starting this walk and talking to my friends about whether they want to help me, I’ve learned stories from my friends where I didn’t know that they had been sexually assaulted before,” said Lena Ellis, the organizer of SlutWalk Detroit. “This serves as an outlet and lets them have a voice. Having my friends open up is a big deal, and if this happens in my little circle, it can happen for a lot of other people as well.”

Should Porn Teacher Have Been Fired?
Okay, I get it. If you had sex on camera before you became a teacher, you risk your career choice when it gets found out (And it always will). Teachers have a morality clause within their contracts and must adhere to them as if their life depended on it. But what if you did the porn BEFORE you became a teacher? Doesn’t that mean that your “Immorality” was in the past? Not according to the following story. The school board decided that since the middle-schoolers know about her, (Who showed them?) she can’t effectively teach. But must you take her pension and benefits along with it? She’s not in the classroom any longer, so let her go on her way with at least a little dignity intact.
Science Teacher Fired for Porn Past May Lose Pay
By ALYSSA NEWCOMB | Good Morning America
An eighth-grade science teacher, fired after her porn past was exposed, may see her pay and benefits revoked at a board of trustees meeting today, according to officials from the Oxnard School District.
The planned vote comes one day after Stacie Halas, 32, lost an appeal to get her job back at Haydock Intermediate School in Oxnard, Calif.
Halas, who was placed on paid administrative leave in March 2012, and fired in April, has been receiving her salary and benefits while she mounted an appeal, Jeff Chancer, superintendent of the Oxnard School District, told ABCNews.com.
A three-judge administrative panel upheld the school district’s decision, calling Halas “unfit for service”.
Halas, known in the pornography world as Tiffany Six, now has the option to appeal to the Ventura County Superior Court.
The science teacher worked as a porn actress for nine months and ended her work in the adult industry in August 2006, said her attorney, Richard Schwab. The next month, she began her job as a full-time teacher.
“She was well liked and respected by her students,” Schwab told ABCNews.com.
School administrators were made aware of Ms. Halas’s work in adult films last March, after gossip from students and teachers made its way to the principal’s office.
Halas initially denied her porn past but later came clean to administrators.
Chancer said he was pleased with the panel’s decision. It was not just her pornography past, he said, but the lies that followed.
“There were numerous lies,” he said. “Multiple times and under oath.”
Those denials, Schwab said, were due to embarrassment.
“I believe that what they may be calling credibility is really her nervousness and embarrassment to openly discuss her past,” he said. “She believed her past was many years behind her.”

Is The NRA Freaking Out?
I’ve been watching, and I’m not impressed with the NRA’s radical stance on the gun control issue. I saw Piers Morgan screamed at in a very immature way and I’ve read quotes by “Dead” Ted Nugent (Formerly deadly, but that career has sunk fast) and others who seem to think that it’s all their fault that the US has decided to take a second look at gun control.
I don’t mind one bit that people pack heat, I just ask that they do it responsibly. For the most part, that hasn’t been a problem. It’s when the radical off-the-cuff NRA advocate speakers come on and rant, it sounds much like Westboro Baptist Church (PRAISE GOD IN JE-SUS NAME).
Take it easy NRA, and let nature run its course.
MAN HARASSED AFTER PROTECTING CHILDREN
A man who found six children in his driveway in Newtown, Conn., after their teacher had been shot and killed in last month’s school massacre has become the target of conspiracy theorists who believe the shootings were staged.
“I don’t know what to do,” Gene Rosen told Salon.com. “I’m getting hang-up calls, I’m getting some calls, I’m getting emails with, not direct threats, but accusations that I’m lying, that I’m a crisis actor, ‘How much am I being paid?’”
Rosen, a 69-year-old retired psychologist who lives near Sandy Hook Elementary School where the shootings took place, says his inbox is filled with emails like this one:
How are all those little students doing? You know, the ones that showed up at your house after the ‘shooting’. What is the going rate for getting involved in a gov’t sponsored hoax anyway?
“The quantity of the material is overwhelming,” Rosen said, adding that he’s sought the advice of a retired state police officer and plans to alert the FBI.
[Related: One month after school massacre, parents of Sandy Hook victims speak]
On the morning of Dec. 14, Rosen had just finished feeding his cats when he saw six small children “sitting in a neat semicircle” at the end of his driveway. According to the Associated Press:
A school bus driver was standing over them, telling them things would be all right. It was about 9:30 a.m., and the children, he discovered, had just run from the school to escape a gunman.
“We can’t go back to school,” one little boy told Rosen. “Our teacher is dead.”
Adam Lanza, the 20-year-old gunman, had shot his way into the school and opened fire, killing 20 children and six adults.
[Slideshow: Scenes from Newtown, Dec. 14-21, 2012]
Rosen took the four girls and two boys—students of slain teacher Victoria Soto—into his home, gave them toys and comforted them while he tried to reach their parents. He spent the days following the massacre telling his story to the swarming media that invaded the small Connecticut town in the wake of the shootings.
“I wanted to speak about the bravery of the children,” Rosen told Salon. “I guess I kind of opened myself up to this.”
A quick Web search for Rosen’s name reveals some of what he’s opened himself up to: Appearing online are photos of his home, his address and phone number, several fake YouTube accounts and plenty of conspiracy theories.
One post, entitled “Grieving Town Grandfather, or Bad ‘Crisis Actor,’” reads in part:
Gene’s oft repeated, and changing, story about that day, focuses totally on the kids and the sound of gunshots. Even though his eyes and ears should’ve taken in the whole scene, his story focuses completely on the kids and the guns.
Why? Well, if this was a false flag event designed to move political opinion on gun control, here in America, then you would get a lot more bang for your buck by talking about the innocent little children. That’s what tugs on America’s heart strings the most … especially around Christmas time.

The Making of Behind the Brick 1-13-13
Well folks, I’m well into my first re-write of Behind the Brick. I’m really quite surprised about a few things and I’d like to share them with you.
My grammar and sentence structure ability is improving ten-fold. I’m impressed with the growth and identifying of errors that used to get by me. This is my fourth full-length novel and the improvement is definitely showing. That’s not to say there aren’t mistakes, because there’s plenty. I simply feel that with each paragraph I write, the mistakes are minimized more and more.
I’m so glad that writing, telling stories and expressing ourselves is a part of life. I don’t know what I’d do without the ability to make stuff up and write about it! Seriously, I’m already thinking about the next book and this one isn’t even done yet.
The premise, I feel, is strong. I’ve tried to find subject matter that’s new and fresh without being irrelevant. I feel it’s important to make sure you write fresh material every time you sit down in front of the computer. If you’re boring and mundane, most people will bypass you, especially in the world of independent publishing.
Speaking of publishing, why are the traditional publishers shying away so dramatically?
Traditional publishers are a stuffy bunch with no gift for recognizing good independent writing. Perhaps they need to take a second look, select some talented writers and see if they deserve a contract. They’re missing a lot of wonderful work out there and that’s very disappointing. Allow me to list a few independent writers you should check out:
1. Tish Thawer
2. Amy O’Neill
3. Melanie Drake
4. Donald Frederickson
5. Roxane Tepford Sanford
6. Marita Hanson
If we, as a buying public, pay closer attention to these writers, the independent publisher could become bigger and bigger. Yes, there’s a ton of terrible work out there, but you as a reader know the difference better than anyone else. Traditional publishing releases lousy books too! For the traditional publisher, it’s about the $$$ and that’s it. Talent be damned.
Moving forward, I’m going to continue my work on Behind the Brick, with a focus of writing the best book I’ve ever written. I’m excited about it and I’m feeling real good about it!
(Sidenote): I’ve read those independent authors I listed earlier and enjoyed them. Do your self a favor and look them up. Please don’t forget to check my stuff too!!

Not Another List?
Another list? This time gun owners? Let’s see here; we have a sex offender list, an animal abuse list and now a gun owner list in New York (Which by the way will spread nationwide, just watch). What’s next? A lesbian list? The gay list? Okay, seriously….an arsonist list, a murderer list, a didn’t pay their taxes list. Oh, I could go on and on. I think you catch my drift.
This goes to show how damaging public lists are. What about the children and spouses of those on the lists? This puts non-gun owners in danger too. We’ve gone too far in this country with the whole “fear” tactic to convince the public that these “lists” are a good idea. Animal abuse lists, sex offender lists, now gun lists. They do more harm than good and hang out to dry the innocent people. The police and other public entities already know who the “Bad people” are….isn’t that enough?
So which list will you land on one day? Let me know. They seem to have a place for everybody.
Here are some comments from the story from Leonard Pitts involving the gun list. Read them and see if you agree with the logic; good or bad.
“I’m not surprised liberal media are using the same tactics as racial supremacist groups. I’ve known for a long time they’re a bunch of dirtbags and I expect this type of behavior from them. Liberal media engage in intimidation and bullying all the time and I hope the Journal News in NY gets a taste of their own medicine. They need to learn some manners.”
“How about the “irresponsible” media. For all they know, one (or more) of those registered gun owners might be on the run from an abusive spouse and they just broadcast the name and address.”
“As much as the pro gun controllers like the idea of posting all concealed weapons carriers names and addresses, they are scared stiff that this freedom to publish this information might someday be expanded to include the media elites and editorial writers names, addresses, voting records, political contributions, etc. After all, the first amendment guarantees freedom of the press. With freedom of the press the media elite can sensationalize that news that fits their agenda and omit (censor) that news that would cast a doubt on their agenda. Forget the second amendment.”
“An excellent point.  And it puts me in mind of another step in the same direction.  The Economist’s Babbage blog has an item today on electronically tagging children.
http://www.economist.com/blogs…  Just another step along the path of leaving no privacy for anybody any time.  It’s enough to turn one into a libertarian big-time.”
“Almost a full day has passed and this is the 7th comment on a Leonard Pitts column. That pretty much proves my theory and makes true the old adage: “If you can’t say something
angry, demeaning and degrading, then don’t say anything at all.”
