body two

The disappearance and subsequent murder of a Renton, Washington mother of 3 has horrified the Pacific North West, as more details begin to emerge about the victim, Ingrid Lyne and the suspect, John Robert Charlton. 

What We Know So Far

PC: Facebook~ Ingrid Lyne

The victim, Ingrid Lyne (40) was a nurse at Swedish Hospital and the recently divorced mother of three girls. 

She and her children lived in a private home in Renton, Washington.

Ingrid was a sports fan! In particular, she loved the Seattle Sea Hawks and the Mariners Base Ball Team.

Ingrid (yogagirliml1975) and the suspect, Charlton (joncharlz) met on Plenty of Fish dating site in February of 2016 and began dating. 

Some sources on various talk radio programs say that Charlton knew where she lived and had been a guest in her home for dinner in the weeks before her murder. This has not been verified to be true.

Friday, April 8, 2016

Ingrid was seen retrieving her mail from her mail box on the afternoon of Friday, April 8, 2016 by a neighbor.

Early Friday evening, she was last seen leaving her residence in her grey 2015 Toyota Highlander (AUW3230) in route to meet Charlton for a date to attend the opening home game of the Mariners and Oakland A’s at Safeco field.  (It is not clear, yet, when and where they met before attending the game. )

The game between the Mariners and Oakland A’s began at 7:10 pm.

Ingrid was seen at the game by a friend/acquaintance,with Charlton, at the game.

A friend who attended the game told me that the game ended at approximately 10:50 pm.

According to friends, she was last heard from at 11:30 pm.

Saturday, April 1, 2016

At approximately 10:00 am, Ingrid’s ex-husband, Phillip Lyne, who had their three girls for the previous night, attempted to call her to make arrangements to drop the girls off with her at her home. He was unable to reach her. By all accounts, this was very unlike her and set off alarm bells with her friends and family that something was very wrong. A missing person report was filed at 10:10 am.

According to family and friends, attempts were made to reach John Charlton by phone and text, but he did not respond to any inquiries regarding the whereabouts of Ingrid.

At 10:21 am, on April 9, 2016, the morning after his date with Ingrid and her disappearance, John Charlton updated his educational information on his Facebook page to reflect that he “Started School  at ALL OF them”.

If you click on the link of the “ALL OF Them” it takes you to the schools location, which is in Rawalpindi, Pakistan. This is the same city in Pakistan where Osama Bin Laden hid for a period of years and was subsequently killed. It appears that he created the “ALL OF Them” school link at the same time he updated his educational information on Facebook.

Was Charlton referring to Pakistan or did “All of them” have another meaning? It may be nothing. However, I find it interesting that he would chose the morning after this horrific crime to put this update on his Facebook page and make it public. It is worth noting.

Law Enforcement is notified and an investigation into the whereabouts of both, Ingrid Lyne and John Charlton begins.

Law Enforcement descends on Ingrid’s home and kick in the locked door to discover that her purse and cell phone are inside the residence. 

Her 2015 Toyota Highlander (AUW3230) is missing from her driveway.

 

According to SPD Blotter, at 4:00 pm, 2.7 miles from Safeco field, a home owner at 1609 21st Ave and Pine St in Seattle returned home from a funeral and went to retrieve his recycle bin from the curb after the regular Friday recyclables pick up.

Upon retrieving his recycle bin, the home owner noticed that it was heavier then it should be. He opened the bin to discover three white kitchen size garbage bags containing “fresh” body parts, including a foot and head, of a female.  The parts were dumped in the recycling bin either late on April 8 or early on April 9. (Clearly, whoever killed Ingrid Lyne, wanted their “handy work” to be discovered and the identity of his victim to be easily found out. )

They were tentatively identified as those of Ingrid Lyne by the King County Medical examiner on Monday. The King County Medical Examiner’s Office will officially confirm the victim’s identity after performing an autopsy.

Monday morning, John Charlton allegedly tracked to a “drug house” in Lake Stevens at the East Highland Estates  by members of King County Law Enforcement and the U.S. Marshall Service.

According to one Facebook poster, her friend lives in the vicinity of the alleged drug house.

“He’s been staying there a while… my friend lives a couple doors down and recognized him. He may not own property there but he’s renting there”.

According to another Facebook poster who lives in close proximity to the Highland Estates residence,

That guy always had bags of garbage in his truck. ALL the time

He was detained with out incident, arrested on “investigation of homicide” and booked into the King County Jail.

John Robert Charlton: What We Know So Far

John Charlton Facebook page states that he is “Self Employed“.

The Seattle Times reports that he has a long criminal history going back to 1997 when he was booked for assault in King County in 1997. That same year he was found guilty of weed possession. In 2009, he was convicted for misdemeanor battery in Idaho and Theft out of Montana.

lyne seven

He has ties to Idaho, Wyoming, Montana, and Washington State. It appears that his criminal behavior expands all four states.

His parents live in Idaho. He has a sister that resides in Seattle.

Some radio talk show rumors are that Ingrid was aware of his criminal back ground and had even discussed it with her mother. This has not been confirmed to be true, but still worth noting.

New reports are emerging that Law Enforcement is looking into other “potential victims” and unsolved homicides in Washington and other states in their “Investigation of Homicide” regarding John Charlton.

One Facebook poster recounted her encounter with John Charlton a few weeks ago,

Omg! This guy approached me outside of Norms Market around a month ago trying to hit on me telling me I was pretty and I ignored him. When I went into the store he was standing by my car when I came out. Trying to talk to me again. Very creepy.Thank God I had my German Shepherd with me and he backed away when I opened my truck door.This is so very sad.

  • Parents of John Charlton Feared Him
  • Parents Filed Restraining Order in 2006

The mother and father of John Robert Charlton, 37, were afraid of him according to a restraining order filed in 2006.

In the restraining order court filing, Ray and JoAnn Charlton said their son had taken the movie “Hannibal” — about a serial killer — from a shelf and told his mother she should watch it and “beware.” He also told his parents that “life was putting too much pressure on him” and he felt he was becoming mentally unstable, reports the Washington Post.

As most know, the movie Hannibal is an adaption from a book series The Hannibal Trilogy written by Thomas Harris. Dr. Hannibal Lecter became a cult classic with the movie Silence of the Lambs. Recently a TV series, Hannibal,  aired on NBC for three seasons, from 2012-2015.

Dr. Lecter is a serial killer, cannibal, and forensic psychiatrist. While a vicious killer, Dr. Lecture is also intellectually brilliant, cultured and sophisticated, with refined tastes in art, music and cuisine. He is the ultimate gentleman killer.

A woman who knows the 37-year-old, John Charlton, said that he seemed like a nice and charming guy, reports Kiro 7.

Ted Bundy was also a gentlemen killer with an affinity for decapitating his victims..

 

Bundy was a prolific serial killer active in the Seattle area in and several other states from 1974 and 1978. Of his 30 known victims; he decapitated 12 of them.

Bundy was regarded as handsome and charismatic by his young female victims, traits he exploited to win their trust. He typically approached them in public places, feigning injury or disability, or impersonating an authority figure, before overpowering and assaulting them at more secluded locations.

John Charlton Probable Cause Documents

The suspect accused of killing and dismembering a Washington mother of three he met online has been ordered held on $2 million bail.

On Tuesday, a King County District Court judge found probable cause to hold 37-year-old John Charlton for investigation of second-degree murder in the death of 40-year-old Ingrid Lyne, whose partial remains were found in a homeowner’s recycling bin in Seattle’s Central District over the weekend.

Prosecutors believe Charlton killed Lyne in her home in Renton before driving to Seattle in her vehicle to discard the body parts.

Investigator believed Lyne was killed at her residence and dismembered in the bathroom, prosecutors said Tuesday.

A 15-inch pruning saw was found near the bathtub at Lyne’s home, a probable cause document obtained by KTLA sister station KCPQ in Seattle showed.

Police “found bits of human flesh and blood in the bathtub drain,” King County Deputy Prosecutor Jennifer Worley said, according to KCPQ.

Several body parts matching Lyne’s description — including a human head, arm and leg — were found in a recycling bin, the document stated.

Charlton told investigators the pair had been dating for about a month, and that he spent the night at her place on other occasions.

He claimed he had been “so intoxicated” after attending the baseball game that he could not recall how they got to her residence, or what transpired that night.

“He said he believe they had sex, and said Lyne was acting ‘weird,’ but could not or would not provide any further details,” the probable cause document stated.

Charlton also could not tell investigators how he left her residence, but assumed Lyne drove him back to Seattle; he claimed he ended up sleeping on a sidewalk that night, according to the document.

The last time anyone saw Lyne alive was when she left her home to go on a date with Charlton at the Seattle Mariners’ opening home game.

Her vehicle, which was also missing, was discovered Monday night in downtown Seattle.

Suspect’s parents feared their son

Charlton’s parents lived in fear of their own son, according to court records.

Ray and JoAnn Charlton, who once sought a restraining order against him, testified that he was prone to drinking heavily and could fly into violent, abusive outbursts that left them worried for their own safety. They added that he had a habit of picking fights with them, especially when drunk.

Both parents later requested that the restraining order be dismissed.

King County prosecutors say Charlton killed Lyne in her Renton home and then drove her body to Seattle in the victim’s vehicle.

According to court documents, police found a 15-inch pruning saw in the bathroom of Ingrid Lyne’s home, along with blood and skin fragments.

According to court documents, Charlton, 37, acknowledged to police he knew Lyne and that they had been dating for about a month. He said he and Lyne returned to her home after attending the Mariners game Friday night.

Charlton claimed he had been “so intoxicated” that “he could not recall how he and Lyne returned to her residence.” He also said “he believed they had sex, and said Lyne was acting ‘weird,’ but could not or would not provide any further details.”

He added that he was “‘unsure’ how he left Lyne’s residence, claiming that he assumed she must have driven him back to Seattle, where, he claimed, he slept on the sidewalk.”

During the police interview, Charlton denied having any injuries, but detectives observed abrasions on his forehead, an injury to his lip and chin. He also had scratches on his chest and left hand.

John Charlton was back in court today and charged with first degree murder and theft in the grisly murder of a Seattle nurse and mom of 3, Ingrid Lyne.

Charlton remains in jail with bail set at $2 million. With today’s filing of charges, a second court appearance which was scheduled for Thursday will be canceled. The defendant will return to court for arraignment at the King County Courthouse on April 27 at 8:30 a.m.

The King County Medical Examiner has also definitively identified the remains found Saturday in a Seattle recycling bin to be those of murdered Renton mother, reports My Northwest.com.

According to probable cause documents, Charlton, 37, was arrested on Monday and was interviewed by police following his detainment.

Law enforcement discribes Charlton as “rather non chalant” during his interview and told police that  he had met Lyne on a dating site and had been dating for about a month. He had stayed over night at her Renton home on several occasions in the weeks leading up to her death.

On Friday, Lyne picked him up in Seattle and they attended the Mariners game. The game started at 7:10 and ended at about 10:40 pm. After the game, the couple then went to a bar where Charlton’s sister works.

After spending an unspecified amount of time at the bar where his sister works the couple retured to Lyne’s Renton home. Charlton, who claims to have been very intoxicated at the time, stated that he didn’t remember much about the evening, but “thinks” they had sex but that Lyne was “acting weird”.
Afterward, he “thinks” that Lyne drove him back to Seattle where he claims to have slept on a sidewalk. Charlton also told law enforcement that he suffers from a drinking problem, is homeless, and is “not a normal person”.

Chartlon was expected at the home of an ex-girlfriend on Saturday morning in Lake Stevens. According to the ex-girl friend he did not arrive at her home until 10:30 pm on Saturday evening because “something had come up”. When he arrived at her home on Saturday evening,  she noticed that Charlton has injuries to his face. When she inquired about his injuries, Charlton told her that he had been robbed in the city on Friday evening.

On Sunday, the ex girlfriend received a text from Charlton’s sister, saying that officers wanted to talk to him. When she questioned him about it, Charlton told her it had to do with a woman he was dating that had disappeared, reports People.

He was arrested at her home on Monday morning in Lake Stevens.

Law enforcement is investigating other unsolved violent crimes in the region for a possible connection with John Charlton.

The family of Inrid Lyne released a statement yesterday in the horrific wake of the murder and dismemberment of the nurse and mother of 3.

Lyne’s daughters, 12, 10, and 7,  were with their dad, Ingrid’s former husband, Phil Lyne, last Friday night when she was slain. Police said the killer dismembered her in her bathtub and dropped three of her body parts in a recycling bin in Seattle. The rest of her remains have not yet been found.

Friends, neighbors and strangers packed St. Matthew’s Lutheran Church Tuesday night to remember Ingrid Lyne in a community vigil.

Today, her alleged killer, John Charlton, was charged with first degree murder and remains in the King County Jail on 2 million dollars bail.

Family Statement below:

This weekend, a light went out of our lives forever. Ingrid, beloved mother, daughter, sister, and friend was taken from us for reasons we still cannot comprehend. Our hearts are broken and can never be fully mended.

But out of our grief, hope still springs, as does our appreciation. Words cannot express our gratitude to our communities near and far for banding together and expressing their support and ultimately their love. For this we will be forever grateful. From the bottom of our hearts, we all thank you.

We would also like to express our appreciation to the Renton and Seattle Police Departments as they work tirelessly to provide all of us the truth around what exactly happened to our beloved Ingrid. They have been there for our family providing answers, support, and compassion – even feeding the girls cats when we needed.

Lastly, we’d like to give you an update on Ingrid and Phil’s daughters. While devastated, they have been amazingly resilient and we couldn’t be more proud of how they have handled what will be the worst news of their young lives. With all of your prayers and positive thoughts, we are able to express to them how much Ingrid meant to all of you and how much you truly love and care for them. We have truly appreciated all of your respect for their privacy while our primary focus is on them moving through this in a healthy yet honest manner.

Again, thank you to all of you in what has truly been our darkest hour.

Leslie Van Houten; Back to the Future (Warning; Crime Scene Photos)

CHINO, Calif.

The slight and unassuming 66-year-old woman who stood before a California state parole board yesterday, looks like she could be anyone’s grandmother. Slight and somewhat frail, with glasses and gray hair that reaches just below her ears, no one would suspect that what this woman was capable of. Indeed, you could pass her on the street and never realize you just breezed passed one of California’s most notorious killers who was sentenced to death in 1971.

Unthinkable? Well, looks can be deceiving..

So can a death sentence handed down in the first degree murder of two innocent people almost 50 years ago.

leslie
Leslie Van Houten

Yesterday, ex-follower of Charles MansonLeslie Van Houten,  stood before a two person California parole board for her 20th time seeking freedom after spending over 46 years in prison.

This time, the parole board granted her request.

“Your behavior in prison speaks for itself. Forty-six years and not a single serious rule violation,” Commissioner Ali Zarrinnam told Van Houten at the close of her 20th parole hearing.

By all accounts, Van Houten has been a model prisoner, never having even one conduct violation in almost 50 years that she has been behind bars. She has attended college and has been known as a mentor to many women inside the walls of Chino Prison for Women. Some have even referred to her as “the most parole ready inmate in California history”, according Leslievanhouten.com anyway.

Today, the mainstream media is in a titter. After all, the potential parole of a Mansion Family Member makes for great headlines and media fodder.

But, will Van Houten really be free to walk the streets? Perhaps even the streets of your town? Your neighborhood?

Well, not so fast..

Leslie is not the first Manson member approved for parole by a two person parole board.

In 1969,  Manson member, Bruce Davis (then 30) was convicted of, yet another Manson family murder of musician Gary Hinman and stuntman Donald ‘Shorty’ Shea.

In 2015, after serving 42 years in prison, Davis was approved for parole at the age of 72, citing his good conduct while incarcerated. However, his “victory” didn’t last long when California Gov. Jerry Brown rejected the parole board’s decision to release Davis.

Like Davis before her, Van Houten parole recommendation must be approved by Governor Brown. He can uphold the recommendation or overturn it. The Governor of California, not the two person parole panel determines whether a prisoner will be paroled.

While Governor Brown may surprise us all and approve her parole, it is highly unlikely. Gov Jerry Brown is serving his final term as California’s longest serving Governor. Make no mistake California loves Governor Brown. After all, California recently voted him back into office by a landslide vote, for the fourth time, in 2015.

Granted, since his return to office in 2011,  Gov. Jerry Brown has affirmed 82 percent of parole board decisions, resulting in a record number of inmates with life sentences going free. However,  freeing a Manson Member during his final term in office would leave a sour taste in the mouth of California voters and it’s just not something I see him approving in the last leg of his illustrious political career. Admittedly, I could be wrong and, as Charles Manson himself is often known to say, “only time will tell”.

The LaBianca Murders

leslie two
Leno and Rosemary La Bianca.

On the night of August 9, 1969, the night after the brutal murders of actress Sharon Tate, her unborn baby, and guests at her home on Ceilo Drive in the Hollywood Hills, a group of Manson followers were tasked with another brutal murder. Charlie was ready to set the second  part of his plan, dubbed”Helter Skelter“, in motion and bring about the race war that he was sure would bring about his “rise to power”.

Charlie selected his group for the evening of August 9, 1969. The group he selected did not include Van Houten, who was also not involved in the horrific Tate murders the previous evening.  However, Leslie stepped up to volunteer for this nights massacre. If anything, Leslie was ambitious and desperate to show Charlie her allegiance to him and  she was more than willing to spill innocent blood to do it.

“The family” members including Van Houten and five others, accompanied by their leader, Charles Manson, set off from their  home base, the Spahn Ranch, located in the beautiful but jagged hills of  Santa Susana Mountains, 20 miles North of  Los Angeles. Their intended destination would take them to the Los Angeles suburb of Los Feliz and the well appointed Spanish style home of  Rosemary and Leno La Bianca.

At approximately  2:30 am, the Manson family members burst through the front door of 3301 Waverly Drive, to discover a sleeping Leno on the living room couch. Van Houten and another female accomplice found a sleeping Rosemary in the master bedroom. The couple was tied up and pillow cases where placed over their heads and secured with electrical cord from bedside lamps.

Leno LaBianca

Leno LaBianca was murdered by several Manson members in the living room. He was stabbed 27 times, a carving fork was left in his chest, a steak knife was embedded in his neck, and the word WAR was carved into his torso.

At the same time that Leno was being murdered,  Van Houten held Rosemary down while two other Manson members stabbed her . Van Houten was then handed the knife and instructed to take part in the murder at Manson’s request. She stabbed Rosemary La Bianca a dozen times in the buttocks and lower back. Van Houten would later claim that Rosemary was already dead before her attack. In total, Rosemary was stabbed 47 times. The autopsy would find that some of the stab wounds were inflicted after death.

Rosemary LaBianca

It didn’t take long for law enforcement to tie evidence at both scenes back to the “Mason Family”. On August 16, law enforcement descended on the Spahn Ranch compound. Leslie Van Houten was one of those booked and released following the raid. She went into hiding in the desert and was finally located and arrested for the murders in December 1969.

Of all the Manson family member arrested, only two cooperated with law enforcement, Van Houten was one of them. In fact, her cooperation led to the identification of all members involved in both the Tate and LaBianca murders.

Leslie six         (1970 trial of ,Susan Atkins, Patrica Krinwinkle and Leslie Van Houten)

      On March 29, 1971, after a long and galvanizing trial, Van Houten and five other members were convicted of first degree murder and sentenced to death.  The following year,the California Supreme Court’s decision, in the case of People v. Anderson, resulted in the repeal of all death sentences imposed in California before 1972. All the Manson followers death sentences were commuted to life in prison.

Back to the Future

Now, almost 5 decades later, the 66-year-old Van Houten was described as “numb” after the panel announced it’s decision, said her attorney Rich Pfeiffer.

     “She’s been ready for this for a long time. It really should have happened a long time ago”, said Pfeiffer.

On that, Van Houten, her attorney, and I disagree. What “really should have happened along time ago” is her execution.

Additional human remains were discovered in a Seattle neighborhood on Friday with in two blocks of where the remains of Seattle nurse, Ingrid Lyne were found the previous week.

Last Saturday, the head, left hand and forearm, right foot and femur of Lyne was discovered in a recycle bin on the 1600 block of 21st and pine street.

The remains discovered in a curb side receptacle  Friday were located on the 900 block of  20th Avenue E. and E. Marion Street, only 1.5 blocks from the first location.

Law enforcement received a call at approximately 9:45 am when a waste management workers made the second horrific discovery while emptying bins .

Police were searching through other bins in the neighborhood for any other remains.

Officers will canvass the area again and take several garbage trucks to a secure location to search through their contents, reports Q13 News. 

Charlton’s public defender Gordon Hill has said no forensic evidence links Charlton to the crime.

Misty Speck, who lives a few doors down from where the remains were found Friday, wondered why police had not found the parts on their own or asked people to help.

“How hard would it be to ask people to please check your cans? Of course they can’t check every can in the neighborhood,” Speck said.

Folks, I don’t know about all of you, but I have some serious questions as to WHEN the second set of remains were placed in the bin at the second dump sight! 

The location of the second set of remains are at 948 20th Avenue E. and E. Marion Street.

We know that by looking at the media photos of the crime scene found here.

Now, the home where the remains are found is the blue home below..

Click the link below and take a look around… In fact, “take an internet walk” along the street where the second set of remains were found.

What did you notice?

The first thing I noticed was that at least three people are seen walking along this block when the google street view was taken. This tells me this is a busy area for pedestrians..

The other thing I noticed is what I DID NOT SEE..

I did not see  garbage and recycle bin cans left curb side through out the week.

The google map street view was obviously taken at a time when garbage and recycle pick up was NOT expected..

On that entire block, I only saw ONE garbage/recycle bin left curb side.

Almost exclusively, the recycle bins and garbage cans are tucked close to the houses at times when Garbage and recycle bin pick up is NOT scheduled.

Most of the bins are tucked right next to the front door of the homes!

In fact, the very home where the remains were found shows the bins right tucked right next to the front door!

What does that tell us?

Well, it tells me that folks in this neighbor hood only place their garbage cans and recycle bins curb side during expected picks up by Waste Management.

We know from media report coverage of both the first set and second set of remains that Garbage and recycle bin pick up happens in this neighborhood on Fridays mornings.

So, the bins are placed curb side on Thursday night and removed from curb side Friday evening after they have been emptied.

The gentlemen that discovered the first set of remains last Saturday, was out of town, over night on Friday attending a funeral.

He deposited his garbage and recycle bins curb side on Thursday before heading out of town and returned Saturday at approximately 4:00 pm.

One of the first things he did when he returned home was to retrieve his empty garbage can and recycle container from the curb.

It was then he discovered that his recycle bin, which should have been empty, was heavier then it should be and he discovered the remains at that time.

Investigators determined the remains, which were packaged in plastic bags, had been placed in the bin late Friday or early Saturday. A police spokesman said the bin would have been empty because recyclables were collected on the block on Fridays.

We also know, from media reports that after the first set of remains were found, Police say they searched other bins in the area but found nothing of note.

The location of both drop sites are only 2 city blocks apart.

 

Screenshot (138)

 

It stands to reason that law enforcement checked bins with-in at least a 6 block radius of the first discovery.

Even if law enforcement hadn’t, it stands to reason that the people in the neighborhood would!

After all, if body parts had been found in one of your  neighbors recycle bin; Wouldn’t you make it a point to check yours?

Furthermore, we have already established that those in the neighborhood are diligent about retrieving their cans after garbage pick up.

So, had the second set of remains been dumped in the can at 948 20th Avenue E. and E. Marion Street last Saturday, when the first set were dumped at 1600 block of 21st and pine street;

Why didn’t the resident at that the second dump site find them last week?

Another factor to consider is the smell of human decomposition…There is no smell like it…It is over powering, putrid, and distinctive..

It stands to reason that if the remains from the second dump had sat in that bin for six days someone would have noticed the smell.

Especially knowing body parts were just discovered in your neighborhood a few days before!

Stray animals would have certainly been hovering around that can.

I find it almost impossible to believe that Ingrid’s remains sat in that second can for six days and no one noticed!

Not the owner of the second can…

Not the neighbors…

Not law enforcement..

Not crime scene technicians…

Not people walking by…

At this point, I think it’s far more likely that the second set of remains were dumped into the recycle bin at  948 20th Avenue E. and E. Marion Street, on the evening of April 14th , not of evening of April 8th when the first set of remains were dumped.

John Charlton was arrested on Monday, April 11th.

So, if the second set of remains were dumped April 14th:

Who dumped them there?

Necro song a “how too” in murder of Ingrid Lyne?

john-charlton-3 (1)

Let me warn my readers now that the lyrics to this song and the video are very disturbing and offensive..

A member of the UmbrellaofSuspicion page on Facebook sent me the lyrics to this song.

It’s called “Dead Body Disposal” by the Necro, a hardcore death metal and gore rapper out of Brooklyn, New York.

The lyrics to this song are almost a “how too” in the murder of Ingrid Lyne.

Did John Charlton listen to the band, Necro?

You decide…

[Verse 1]
Let’s talk about dead body disposal
My proposal take the corpse to the bathtub
And drain the blood out of the bastard
Strip ya self nude first so you don’t get blood on ya new shirt
And cut the fuckin’ corpse up like a butcher to meat kid
And put the pieces inside trash bags
So she’ll be wreaking like a fags ass
With flesh covered in leeches
And throw the bags away
In various trash bins in different areas
This shit’s hilarious
Nobody notices some asshole taking out the garbage
Who would know it’s a carcass?
Even if they were focusing ’cause the plastic bag is dark kid
And even the nosy bitch wouldn’t open it, it make no sense
And if you do it just before a trash pick up
The bodies hauled away before it decays and stinks up
It won’t be noticed, with literally tons of ther shit
And ya bag is in the middle buried right under it
Especially if you double-bagged it
Ya victim’ll stay a faggot in fragments forever stagnet

[Verse 2]

Bodies begin to stink within an hour of death
And if it’s warm outside then it’s quicker for the sour stench to leak out
the flesh
So think about the steps
You taking killing and be willing to consider the best
Be extra careful and grab an aerosol can of pepper spray
to coat the pieces the smell is unbearable
Hold the first layer of bag beautifully
that’ll keep animals from tearing open the bag to get to the meat
Squirrels, dogs, and birds
Officers with dogs that smell won’t find shit when they thrown off the scent
You could hang a fuck upside down in ya tub
And slit his throat from ear to ear to remove a large amount of blood
Most of it’ll gush out on its own at once
But to get the last couple of pints drained work his arms like pumps
For dismemberment gentlemen I recommend
heavy duty bone saws that cut through gendleums like pendulums
But if you want to take your time don’t rush it
either cut each piece off like Pizza Hut pizza with a rusty cleaver
Then put each piece up in a freezer
Take out the trash in a couple of days the stench of decomposition’s meager
And make sure there’s no incriminating papers in the bag
Letters, receipts, anything with ya name they’ll trace ya

I know it’s obvious but you’d be amazed at how easy it is
to be sloppy with this even the Mafia slips

[Verse 3]
There’s more choices to choose kid
Bury the corpse in the ground, bury it at sea or the pieces get distributed
When using the ground a shallow grave isn’t allowed
‘Cause the corpse’ll be found when the stench of it lingers out
Make sure it’s six feet deep or more
Construction sites work in fermented
In what’s cemented suspended beneath the floor
Using the sea has its potential sequentionally
The sea destroys all evidence eventually
But make sure that you tie a weight to the body to keep it from floating
around and being discovered by mistake
Drop it as far from shore as possible otherwise it’ll pop up at low tide or
be seen by some fisherman’s opticals
Distributing! Body parts is riveting
I explained it in verse one forgive me if I begin again
A wood chipper turns a corpse into chopped meat
Spread it all over ya grass then water it down properly
Within a few days the cadaver’s fertilizer
Your advisor’s taught you ways of covering up murders wiser
Regardless how you tried these methods
Be careful with prints and rented equipment use cash and fake id’s

Seattle cop arrested for child rape

LAKE FOREST PARK, Wash. —

A Seattle cop, dressed in the orange jumpsuit of a King County Jail inmate, 43-year-old Daniel Amador seemed subdued as he arrived for his first court appearance Saturday, standing where suspects he has booked have stood during his more than two decades as a police officer, reports Kiro7.

Amador, a  veteran Seattle police sergeant, was arrested with out incident on Friday,  allegedly engaging in long-term abuse of his two daughters, one a teenager and the other an adult, the Seattle Police Department said Friday.

On April 1, the police department received a report from the man’s two daughters alleging abuse that had been happening for years, and Police Chief Kathleen O’Toole immediately notified detectives to make contact with the two daughters, the SPD said.

The SPD said that an allegation of abuse against the same sergeant in 2013 was investigated by the Lake Forest Park Police Department, Child Protective Services and the Office of Professional Accountability.

Prosecutors declined the case due to insufficient evidence, SPD said, and Child Protective Services determined the allegations of abuse and/or neglect were unfounded, reports Q13.

Siting “predatory behavior against extremely vulnerable victims”, the Judge ordered that Amador be held on 750,000 bail.
The allegations against him have been backed up with a tape recorded confession out of Amador’s own mouth.

One of his daughters recorded him while the two of them were talking about his sexual abuse of her.

During that taped conversation, Amador is heard saying, “I am sorry I did that to you”.

The county prosecutor has until  Wednesday to file formal charges.

The county prosecutors office is expected to make a statement regarding the charges this week.

Disgusting in Denver

If you have law enforcement connections…

you can murder an unarmed person..

in a crowded complex…

with over 40 witnesses…

with photo and video proof…

and walk away..

The catch? Make sure your victim is a member of the Mongols Nation MC.

 

This was the jaw dropping message sent Tuesday when the Denver Prosecutors Office announced that it was not filing charges against, Colorado Correction Officer,  and Jax Teller wannabe, Derrick “Kong” Durran, in the murder of Victor “Nubs/Nubz” Mendoza.

The district attorney’s office said it came to the decision after concluding a jury would be unlikely to convict Derrick Duran, the Colorado Department of Corrections employee, of any crime because of his self-defense claims, reports the Denver Post.

But District Attorney Mitch Morrissey’s decision not to prosecute raised questions among observers, who did not understand how someone could shoot a firearm in such a crowded, public place without facing any legal consequences.

“It sounds a little off to me,” said Kris McDaniel-Miccio, a professor at the University of Denver’s Sturm College of Law. “I would be concerned about it and would want to know more information.”

Prosecutors say an “extensive investigation” revealed Duran was the first to fire a shot during the brawl, which injured a member of the Mongols.

Lynn Kimbrough, spokeswoman for the district attorney’s office, said the case was considered by prosecutors in its entirety and that no charges — including ones not linked directly to Mendoza’s killing — were found to be fileable.

The Murder

Derrick “Kong” Duran and several other members of The Iron Order (aka Cop Club), were clearly looking for trouble at the 38th Annual Motorcycle Expo in January.

Infact, the members of the Cop Club had only been at the expo for one hour when the murder occurred.

Several heavily intoxicated members of Iron Order, including Duran, made it a point to go down stairs and into the basement area designated to the Mongols, where several Mongls had booths set up selling T-Shirts.

The drunken Cop Club members stood there, in a sea of Mongols, and began to stare down members of the Mongols MC.

A group of Mongols walked over and said, “What are you doing here? Get out of here,”.

One Iron Order member shoved a Mongol. A Mongol knocked a beer out of his hand. During a fight that broke out, a drunk Duran, pulled out a gun, waved it in the air, yelled profanities and threatened to shoot Mongol members.

At that point, one of the Mongols charged the gun-toting man to tackle him and the Iron Order member shot him.  A melee broke out in which the Mongols had beaten their rivals and the Iron Order Member who was armed stood up on the stairs and began waving his gun again. It was at this point that Victor “Nubs” Mendoza, in an attempt to defuse the threat to himself, other Mongols members, and the thousands in attendance at the expo that day, charged after Duran. It was then that Duran fatally shot Mendoza.

The Cop Club, as usual, claimed “self-defense”.

 

A Picture Is Worth A Thousand Words 

Victor

In the photo, Derrick Duran is shown holding his firearm inside the bike show moments before he murdered Mendoza. The victim, can be seen below the stairs in sun glasses.  (Photo provided by Stephen Stubbs, attorney for the Mongols)

The National Council of Clubs attorney, Wade Eldridge, was an eye witness to the events on Saturday.

According to Mr. Eldridge, he saw a crowd of Mongols and Iron Order, approximately a total of 20-30 individuals, gather inside the expos. Yelling and a verbal argument ensued. He then heard a gun shot and saw an Iron Order member holding a gun in his right hand with his right arm extended. People began shouting for him to, ‘Put your gun away’. The Iron Order member then dropped his arm and pointed his weapon at the ground.

Another, Council of Clubs eye witness, who snapped the picture above, corroborate Eldriges version of events. The photo was taken following the first shot fired.

In another photo provided by Council of Clubs participant, Duran is pictured after the shooting with another Iron Order member (who appears to be posing) and two law enforcement officers. He is not in handcuffs and is in fact being allowed to use a cell phone even though he is suspected of firing shots. The blue brotherhood was clearly at work that day in Denver.

     The Cop Club 

The Iron Order touts its club as “law abiding” and deny any involvement in the 1%er life style or culture. However, they have managed to make there way onto the ATF’s radar. In fact, a 2014 ATF report clearly demonstrates that they are considered an Out Law Motorcycle Club by the Federal Government.

Furthermore, the Iron Order identifies itself and aligns itself with OMC’s due to the fact that members wear a three piece patch. The traditional three piece patch, has the name of the club on the top rocker, the club emblem or logo in the center, and the bottom rocker is the state in which that club member comes from. In biker culture, use of a bottom rocker naming a state, on club colors indicates a claim to territory.

According to a recent ATF report, “The fact that they (The Iron Order) wear the State bottom rocker has infuriated the [Hells Angels], Outlaws, Iron Horsemen, Pagans and Bandidos. More importantly, many of their members are police and corrections officers, active-duty military and/or government employees and contractors. Over the past 4 years, the Iron Order has had several violent confrontations with each of the aforementioned OMGs.”

In fact, many military commanders are baring active duty troops from involvement in the Iron Order, among others, citing Defense Department regulations prohibiting participation in any “criminal gang or organization” that advocates the use of force or violence.

Getting Away With Murder

In 2014, an Iron Order recruit killed a member of the Black Piston MC in an altercation outside a Jacksonville Beach, Fla., restaurant. He got away with it…

No charges will be filed against him after the Iron Order club recruit was bloodied and suffered a broken nose outside Nippers Beach Grille, even though he admitted to shooting Black Pistons motorcycle club member Zachariah “Nas T” Tipton during the 10-second brawl, Corey said during a Friday news conference.

The justifiable-homicide decision was reached after a little more than four months of investigation by the Jacksonville Beach Police Department and Corey’s office, including review of security camera video that captured what appeared to have been a planned confrontation between two rival clubs, she said.

Last year, the Iron Order was linked to a shooting in Mississippi with bikers tied to the Bandidos Motorcycle Club.

The Iron Order’s lawyer said those shootings were in self defense and the Denver brawl was no different. Outlaw groups see it differently.

“Probably the best way to put it in a nutshell is to say the Iron Order has been having problems with everybody,” said Steve Cook, executive director of the Midwest Outlaw Motorcycle Gang Investigators Association.

“They are known for picking fights and being jerks,” he said. “It was a fair fight until the Iron Order member pulled out a gun. For them to come out and play the victim when they picked the fight is outrageous. They are a bunch of cops who say the rules of society don’t apply to them. Members of the Mongols did not fire a single bullet during the confrontation. Even Mongols have a right to defend themselves,” Stubbs said..”

(Brotherhood)

No Justice for Victor “Nubs” Mendoza

Vince Bohm, who identified himself as a member of the Mongols Motorcycle Club, said an off-duty police officer fatally shot a Mongol.

“The Iron Order are cowards,” Stubbs said Sunday. “The Iron Order started an argument. An Iron Order member threw the first punch. And when they were handily losing the fight they pulled out a gun and shot a Mongol. The only person who died here was shot by a member of the cop club.”

McDaniel-Miccio, who also is a former New York City prosecutor, said she was surprised by Morrissey’s decision. Even if prosecuting a first-degree murder charge would have been difficult, that is not a reason to decline charges, she said.

And the district attorney could have chosen to prosecute lesser charges such as assault or reckless endangerment.

She also doubted Morrissey would have made the same decision had the brawl been between rival street gangs.

“Would that have been the same result from the Denver DA’s office if it had been the Crips and Bloods? I would argue probably not.”

To make the self-defense argument, the shooter would have to have been trying to combat someone using deadly force against him, McDaniel-Miccio said.

“It looks like the dead guy had a self-defense argument,” she said.

I will take it a step further and point out that I doubt Morrissey would have made the same decision had Mendoza been the shooter and Duran had been the victim.

Who killed Terri Bevers?

MIDLOTHIAN, TX~

The Monday morning murder of a Texas mom of three remains unsolved today as family, public, and even law enforcement speculate about the identity and motive of her killer.

Terri Leann “Missy” Beavers (43) was found dead inside the Creekside Church of Christ on Highway 287 in Midlothian Texas.

A fitness instructor, “Missy”, as she was known by friends and family, arrived at the church at 4:30 am. to set up for an early exercise class.

The exercise class called “Camp Gladiator” typically takes place out doors. However, due to rainy weather she decided to conduct the class indoors that day.

At 5:00 am, several of her students found her unresponsive in the church. She was later pronounced dead by a Justice of the Peace.

A search warrant indicated that her death was caused by a head injury.

At 4:00 am, about a half an hour before Missy arrived at the church, the Church’s security camera recorded an individual wearing law enforcement tactical gear, including a heavy vest with “POLICE” written across the back, along with helmet and gloves. The suspect is seen holding and using what appears to be a military /law enforcement issue flash light partially tucked inside the uniform sleeve.

Unfortunately, the surveillance cameras out side of the church were turned off the morning of the crime.

It is believed that the suspect gained entry into the church by breaking a window.

Nothing in the church was stolen.

Original media reports referred to the suspect as male. However, the media and law enforcement backed off from stating the gender of the suspect.

Midlothian Police Assistant Chief Kevin Johnson said Tuesday that contrary to initial reports, the detectives can no longer say they are looking for a man.

“We are backing off our statement that the suspect on video was a man. I know we said ‘he’ over and over again yesterday, and that was a mistake,” Johnson said. “There’s a lot of speculation based on the gait and appearance that this person may be a woman. It’s a legitimate question right now. We no longer will say the suspect is a man”, reports NBC5.

The family of the victim and law enforcement have varying theories on the motive of the crime.

terri bevers

The husband of the victim, who was out of town when the murder occurred, believes that it was a random act of violence. He surmises that the suspect was there to burglarize the church and was surprised by “Missy”. In the weeks before her murder, her husband reportedly had expressed concerns about her being at the church by herself so early in the morning.

The sister in law of the victim believes that this was a targeted attack perhaps motivated by jealousy. 

While a gym mate, Mark Garcia, , said that in recent weeks, the 45-year-old didn’t seem like herself.

“She seemed a little … a little more reserved.” said Garcia. “I don’t think she was at the wrong place at the wrong time. I feel like someone was after her”, reports NBC.  

Law Enforcement says they also have varying theories among members but that they are keeping all options open,

” We are exploring all possibilities; It’s would seem like an odd, random situation they would happen to come into a building that’s being burglarized on a Monday morning. But right now all scenarios are on the table,” Smith said at a news conference on Monday.

Commentary

In my opinion, this crime was anything but random.  In fact, I think we are going to discover that this was a planned crime and Bevers was the intended target.

Several things are important to note in the surveillance video.

The suspects choice of disguise. A suspect looking to just break into a church to burglarize would only be concerned with concealing their identity to avoid being recognized on surveillance. A stalking cap or even a bandanna tied over the lower part of their face and a pair of sunglasses can achieve that purpose.

The suspect is in full tactical gear. I believe that this is done to trick the victim into a false sense of security. The suspect could very well have told the victim that they were in the church responding to a call. It will not surprise me to find out that this is exactly what the victim was told when the suspect initially approached her inside the church.

From the way that the suspect walks, I suspect that they are not familiar with walking in tactical boots. I also suspect that the boots are at least one size larger, if not more so than the suspect wears. The persons gait is as if they are walking in shoes that are too big.

Media reports stated the that item the suspect is holding is a “pry tool for opening windows”.  To me, the item in the suspects had appears to be a military/law enforcement issue flash light. I suspect we will discover that the item was not only used to break the window into the church but was also the murder weapon. The victim cause of death was a “head injury by an unknown instrument”.

A suspect looking to come into a church to burglarize it is going to be quick. They will rush in, grab items, and get out of there as quickly as possible. However, the suspect on the surveillance is in no hurry. We can even see them open a door and look inside, but they make to attempt to take anything. Nothing was taken from the church.

Does the church have an security alarm? The media has said nothing about a security alarm but it would stand to reason that a church of this size would have one. The suspect does not appear to be concerned about tipping off a security alarm. Is the suspect familiar with the church?

It is my opinion that the fitness instructor was targeted by a female suspect.

A female suspect who knew she would be at the church that early in the morning and that she would be alone.

Screenshot (143)

A third video in the Terri Beaver’s murder case was just released in hopes of generating more leads.

In this video..

The suspect can be seen walking through out the building opening several doors. In most cases, they don’t even walk past the door thresh hold after they open the door.

The suspect is staging the scene to look like a burglary.

In portion of the video, the suspect comes to a locked door. They take out a pry bar and what appears to be a pick mallet out and uses it on the door. Take notice of what they do.

The suspect placed the pry bar in the jam,taps it with the mallet very lightly, prys it back and forth and then walks away from the door with out even trying to open it.  

The goal was to create pry marks on the door, not pry open the door.

Also, not to be offensive, but the way they used the mallet with the pry bar is rather feminine. One thing is for sure, this is not a man or a seasoned burglar.

It also appears that they suspect does have a flash light with them.

Folks, I think we are watching a female pre-stage a murder to look like a burglary.

I think that the suspect and victim also knew each other and part of the reason for the outfit was to disguise the suspect from being recognized by the victim.

What about an security alarm? The church is loaded with security video so it stands to reason it would have a security alarm.

However, the suspect seems to have no concern about tripping a security system and no security system went off when they broke into the building. Did the suspect possibly know the alarm code? Was the security alarm turned off that evening like the security video in the parking lot?

I am also interested in the uniform… Where did the suspect obtain it?

The tactical vests alone typically run anywhere between $80 to hundreds.

Awfully expensive outfit choice just to commit a burglary and/or murder.

However, I did come across an interesting purchase on AliExpress..

This is the cheapest Police tactical vest I could find on line.

It has been for sale on the website for two years..

Only one was purchased in the U.S.

The purchase was made on March 29, 2016.

AliExpress states on their site that their orders can take up to two months to be delivered.

However, every order I have ever made through Aliexpress has taken two weeks to be delivered.

Could the AliExpress be a clue in the murder of Terri Bevers?

(You can click the link above to see the information on the vest at the website. Be sure to scroll all the way down to see all the details offered on the site.)

Law enforcement says that it can not rule out that the suspect was a woman who knew Terri “Missy” Bevers would be having the exercise class indoors that day because of the rain. They further went on to say that the suspect could be someone familiar with the church and knew were to park to avoid camera detection.

Brandon Bevers, the victims husband, says he thinks it was a random attack by someone unknown to his wife.

Brandon Bevers, husband of murdered fitness instructor, Terri “Missy” Bevers, gave an interesting interview the day after the murder.

Brandon Bevers, the husband of a North Texas fitness instructor killed Monday before a class inside a Midlothian church, spoke publicly Tuesday for the first time since his wife’s death.

Bevers greeted a group of reporters that had gathered outside of the family’s home Tuesday for a one-time interview, after which he asked for privacy for his family.

The father of three said Tuesday afternoon that the last day and a half were a whirlwind that didn’t seem real and that he hasn’t yet been able to slow down and begin dealing with the loss of his wife and best friend.

Suspicious

Tyler Christensen

MISSING UNDER SUSPICIOUS CIRCUMSTANCES

Edmonds/Mukilteo, Washington State

  Tyler Christensen is still missing and his disappearance is considered suspicious. Tyler has no history of running away or delinquency.

According to family members, on Tuesday, April 19, 2016, at approximately 6:30 pm., Tyler his home on foot in the 5300 block of Picnic Point Road in the Beverly Park area of  headed to the Slavic Baptist Church, 4711 116th St SW in  to attend a youth group.

He never arrived at the church. Tyler vanished.

(The map shows the general location of where Tyler was last seen and where he was headed too. I am sure that he would probably take a short cut through a trail along the golf course between the two locations, rather than take the roads)

 The person leading the youth group bible study never heard from Tyler, who usually texted her to let her know whether he was going to be attending the youth group.

“I was curious where he was at, because usually he always texts me or lets me know if he can come,” said Viktor Gossen, who was leading Christensen’s bible study Tuesday night. “He usually runs — he lives not so far, and runs or rides a bicycle… I didn’t get that text.” (KOMO)

Tyler, who is home schooled, was reported missing by family members on at 3:15 am on Wednesday.

Tyler was last seen wearing a blut T shirt and blue shorts. He is 5’11” and 145 lbs. with blue eyes and light brown hair in a buzz cut.

Anyone who has information about this investigation or knows of Christensen’s whereabouts should call 911 or the Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office anonymous tipline at 425-388-3845.

According to various media reports, Christensen’s family has asked for privacy and is not responding to requests for comments.

WAXAHACHIE, Texas

April 24, 2016~(Via KHOU): Terri “Missy” Bevers, the mother murdered early Monday morning inside a Midlothian church, was celebrated Saturday during a memorial service in Waxahachie. The Cowboy Church of Ellis County hosted hundreds of community members, friends and family for a private celebration of Bevers’ life.Bevers was known throughout the community as a fitness instructor. She was preparing to teach a Camp Gladiator boot camp class the morning she was killed.

“My heart says one thing and my head says another thing. It hurts me that there’s somebody still out there, but I’m confident that they’ll be caught, very confident.” says friend, Angela Rickabaugh.

April 22, 2016~ (Via NBCDFW): Midlothian police released surveillance video Friday afternoon showing a person of interest in the Missy Bevers case walking through a church on Monday morning, shortly before the married mother of three was killed. Terri “Missy” Leann Bevers, 45, was attacked inside the Creekside Church of Christ after arriving at about 4 a.m. to teach an early-morning Camp Gladiator workout class, police said.

Third video is released by Midlothian Police Department.

April 22, 2016~ (Via Daily Mail): Sister-in-law believes she was targeted by a ‘jealous woman’.  ‘A lot of us, including myself, think she was targeted,’ Stout told NBC DFW. ‘I could see where a woman would be jealous of Missy.’ Authorities have said they found evidence of forced entry at the church and believe Missy have walked in on a robbery while preparing for her Camp Gladiator fitness class. Her body showed signs of a struggle. A motive for the killing has not been confirmed. ‘Even amongst our investigators, there are a lot of theories,’ Johnson said Tuesday. ‘We’re discussing all possibilities. And we’ll go where the evidence leads us.’ Earlier this week police revealed that, contrary to initial reports, they could no longer be sure it was a man they were looking for in connection to Missy’s death. ‘We are backing off our statement that the suspect on video was a man. I know we said “he” over and over again yesterday, and that was a mistake,’ Midlothian Police Assistant Chief Kevin Johnson said on Tuesday.

update

April 19, 2016 (Via CBSDFW): Midlothian police are asking the public to watch surveillance video captured of the suspect inside the church, in the hope that something strikes someone as familiar. Bevers’ husband, Brandon, today made that same request. “Look at the video,” said Bevers. “The person has a very distinct walk. There’s just a very distinct mannerism about this person that should be apparent to somebody.”

Second video released.

April 18, 2016 ~(Via CBS): Midlothian police are hoping surveillance video will help track down the suspect who they say killed Terri “Missy” Bevers, a mother of three and popular fitness instructor inside a church early Monday morning. The surveillance video shows the killer wearing police tactical gear such as a vest and helmet as he or she roamed the hallways of Creekside Church of Christ around 4:00 a.m.
