WHY SO MANY AMERICAN WOMEN AND CHILDREN ARE KIDNAPPED AND MURDERED
BY LISA RICHARDS
July 16, 2007
Week after week, month after month, and year after year, women and children in the United States go missing only to be found murdered, and people ask why are these crimes so prevalent now when they weren’t thirty years ago.
This is not a piece that will take much explanation to the many kidnappings and murders listed below. It will however take people to realize these crimes will become viler and continue at higher rates until people realize capitol punishment deters murder and those committing violent crimes must be executed.
There was a time in America when police officers were allowed to do their duty when arresting criminals; that ended in the 1960’s when an illegal immigrant from Mexico named Ernesto Miranda raped and murdered a young girl in Arizona.
Miranda, for whom the infamous and pro-criminal Miranda Rights is named for, confessed to the brutal rape and murder of a mentally disabled teenager. Miranda was questioned and jailed until his attorney said Miranda had not been made aware of his constitutional rights he technically had no right to since he was a non-citizen and illegal. The rest is history. Miranda got off, the cops who did their job accurately were hog-tied, and the judge let Miranda go. Thankfully, Miranda received justice by way of a bar-room brawl in which Miranda was killed.
The downside to the story was an Amendment for criminals and a special declaration every police officer must read to every thug cops can’t interrogate without the thug being given full rights to shut up and never reveal what happened to their innocent victim. Thanks to Ernesto Miranda, every criminal in America knows if they do the crime, they’ll barely do time; if they kill, they can live comfortably for 20 years on death row where most murderers die comfortably of old age.
So why do women and children become victims of violent criminals; because the law and courts protect criminals.
In the early 1980’s a string of serial murders took place in Washington. The victims, women and teenage girls, were all found on the banks of the Green River, giving the murder case the name “Green River Murders.”
Serial Killer Gary Ridgeway murdered 51 women, confessing to only four before 2003 when Ridgeway confessed in court, on a plea bargain to drop the death penalty charge, to murdering 48 out of the 51 women “because I thought I could kill as many prostitutes as I wanted.” Gary Ridgeway gets to live because he confessed; 51 innocent women were put to death by his own hands because he accused all of being prostitutes deserving murder.
There are more on America’s list of jack the Ripper’s. Ted Bundy, John Wayne Gasey and Tookie Williams are all violent criminals who got away with murder despite being put to death, because the courts defend criminals. Charles Manson, who was sentenced to death nearly 40 years ago, gets to live because California’s laws changed and Manson and his psycho cohorts are living out their lives comfortably; Sharon Tate and the La Bianca’s received Jack the Ripper-style murders.
If you don’t believe in capitol punishment for violent criminals, read a little further; this could be your child.
In 1979, eight year-old Cary-Anne Medlin was forced into Robert Glen’s Coe’s car where he raped and murdered Medlin. Coe was later executed. He is one of the few murderers in the U.S. who actually receive just punishment.
Not long after Medlin, John Walsh’s son was kidnapped and murdered in similar fashion.
In 1993, Polly Klass was forcibly taken in front of a group of young girls at a slumber party. Polly was found raped and murdered.
In 1996, nine year-old Amber Hagerman of Arlington, Texas was kidnapped and murdered. Her name would become a legacy for the national highway, radio and TV alert for kidnappings.
In 1998, seven year-old Amanda Brown was kidnapped and murdered by convicted child molester Willie Cain Jr. Cain had spent the night with the Browns and while Mrs. Brown slept, Cain abducted her daughter.
On February 1, 2002, Danielle Van Dam was kidnapped from her parent’s home by next door neighbor David Westfield. A week later Danielle’s charred remains were found near a highway; blood DNA was found inside Westfield’s camper where he raped, tortured and murdered the girl.
On May 20, 2002, Christina Long of Danbury, Connecticut met a “Boy” in a chat room. She went to the mall to meet the alleged teen and was met by 25 year-old Saul Dos Reis who kidnapped and murdered Christina. Reis confessed and led the cops to Christina’s body.
On July 15, 2002, five year-old Samantha Runion was forced, kicking and screaming, into a car by Alejandro Avila who raped and murdered the five year-old. Avila is a twice convicted child molester who got off. Samantha got torture and death.
On August 4, 2002, 10 year-old sisters Jessica and Holly Wells vanished. A school caretaker was accused of murdering of the two young girls.
On February 1, 2004, the kidnapping of 11 year-old Carlie Brucia of Sarasota, Florida was captured on video. Video shows Joseph Smith forcibly dragging Carlie away. Smith raped and murdered Carlie then pled not guilty.
February of 2005, Nine year-old Jessica Lunsford of Homosassa, Florida was kidnapped from her bedroom by door neighbor John Couey who snuck into the family home while the Lunsford family slept. Couey said he put his hand over Jessica’s mouth and demanded: “You’re coming with me.” Couey would later be seen on live TV telling the court; “I sexually assaulted her. I’m a sick person…I buried her alive. It’s stupid, but she suffered…”
John Couey, a 23-times sex offender admitted to raping and burying the child alive under his porch steps. Autopsy report state Jessica died of suffocation from being buried alive. Jessica was alive, smothering to death for three days under Couey’s front porch while police attempted to question Couey’s relatives living in the house. Yards from where Jessica struggled as she lay dying, her grieving father stood in front of news cameras begging the kidnapper to release his baby.
Couey now pleads not guilty because police statements reveal Couey did not have a lawyer present for the 50 hour questioning in which he confessed to torturing a human to death. Couey’s lawyers now want the entire case thrown out of court, but Couey has been charged with capitol murder, 24 burglaries, carrying a concealed weapon, fondling a child under 16, and 23 other child molestations.
Still, the murderer has more rights than the child he raped, tortured, buried alive and left smothering to death.
Thanks to Fox News’s Bill O’Reilly hounding the judge and State of Florida via his TV show, a bill named for little Jessica, “Jessica’s Law,” was passed.
On May 16, 2005, eight year-old Shasta and seven year-old Dylan Groene became witnesses to the brutal murder of their mother and her boyfriend. The two were taken by killer Joseph Smith, who held the children for six weeks, raping them until he murdered Dylan. Smith kept Shasta hostage until alert citizens recognized the child in a restaurant with the killer.
Fourteen year-old Elizabeth Smart of Utah was taken from her parent’s home in the middle of the night while her family slept. The perpetrator was the Smart’s handyman. He kidnapped Elizabeth and forced her to be his sex slave for nearly a year before being caught with the child on a Utah street not far from her hometown. Elizabeth was fortunate; she’s was found alive and returned to her parents.
And we are all well aware of the many missing pregnant moms who always turn up murdered; their husbands are most often the killer.
Pregnant mother to be Lacy Peterson went missing on Christmas Eve 2003, one month before her child was due. Husband Scott Peterson killed his wife over another woman and dumped his wife’s body carrying his unborn child in the San Francisco Bay. The baby’s expulsed body was found washed up on shore before authorities were able to find Lacy’s torso in the bay. To this day, Scott Peterson, who gets to live for 20 years while waiting for execution, has never told police how he murdered his wife and child.
After the Lacy Peterson murder, a Utah man shot his pregnant wife in her sleep then dumped the body in a dumpster, which wound up in the city dump. The reason for the brutal murder; his wife discovered he lied about a college education and degrees and lost his job. He murdered his wife and unborn child to stop her from telling the family he had a phony past.
In June of 2007, nine months pregnant Jessie Davis was murdered in front of her two and half year-old son by the child’s father, a police officer.
Three months ago, wife and mother, Lisa Stebic went missing; her police officer husband is now the lead suspect in her mysterious disappearance.
These are only a few murdered mothers over the past five years. As of 2007, 80 wives are officially missing under mysterious circumstances.
2007 high school graduation year saw more kidnappings and murders of young girls.
A young girl was unknowingly stalked inside a Target store, followed out of the store by a man video cameras captured attacking the 17 year-old and pushing her into her car. A week later the girl’s body was found and the murderer was revealed to be a child molester.
College student Jessie Nolan was last seen by friends she spent the evening with at a bar. Nolan was never seen again until the week of July 16, 2007 when her body was found in a secluded area.
On the evening of July 4, 2007, 12 year-old Zina Linick of Tacoma, Washington was watching the fire work’s display from the alleyway behind her house when her father heard Zina scream. Moments later a grey van sped away with the sounds of Zina’s screams coming from inside the van. A week later, police discovered the van belongs to a convicted rapist who happens to be an illegal alien. On July 13, 2007, the illegal alien told police where little Zina’s body was. The twelve year-old who went outside her home to celebrate the freedom America gave her immigrant parents, lost her life at the hands of a violent criminal who may be the Tacoma serial killer known as the “Truck Stop Killer.”
The list goes on and on and on. Every week the news reports a child or adult woman missing; only report authorities have found the victim’s body. The list does not count thousands of U.S. rape victims courts treat like criminals; thus the reason many women never report rape.
Between 1976 and 1994, 37 American children were murdered. In 1994 alone, 46 children were kidnapped and murdered. Since 1980, the murder of teens has risen so high, they out-rank all other violent crimes in America.
So why is there a list like the above in the United States? Again, liberal activist judges and their supporters believe sex offenders, kidnappers and murders are no different than innocent citizens and should be treated fairly, not like animals. Criminals know they have more rights than the victim, thus they have become bolder in their crimes.
The list above has nothing to do with 24-hour cable news coverage; these crimes were not as prevalent decades ago. Criminals who committed violent crimes decades ago did not get a slap on the wrist from judges and a pat on the back from psychologists; they got fried.
Thanks to Supreme Court Judge Earl Warren, who opened prison doors in the 1960’s, releasing violent murderers, criminals now have free reign to kidnap, rape and murder women and children; thanks to Earl Warren, crime rose drastically during the 60’s and 70’s. There was lull in the 1980’s when Reagan appointed conservative judges, but that changed during the Clinton era and violent crimes against women and children are steadily rising.
Violent crimes against women and children are so high, women and children are an endangered species in America and something must be done to stop violent criminals.
If readers still believe, like Judge Warren, that the death penalty is too harsh and violent thugs can only be rehabilitated if free on the streets to mingle with innocent human beings; don’t cry if you one day find yourself joining the ranks of John Walsh and Mark Klass.

IT’S ALL JUST RELATIVELY NIETZSCHE
BY LISA RICHARDS
July 28, 2007
The greatest danger to the western world is the perspective of relativism; it’s all just relative. The term has nothing to do with family relations; relativism translated simply means everyone and everything is meaningless, therefore there is no right or wrong, no accountability and no one to be held accountable to. That makes things relatively nice for criminals; they can rob rape and murder and never be responsible to higher authority or God, because God is relative; he does not exist unless the person chooses to believe God exists.
Out of relativism comes the entire belief system of liberalism.
Criminal action is nothing new, neither is the idea that one can get away with whatever one wants, but relativism was fostered to greatness in the nineteenth century by a German philosopher whose writings are said to be the main inspirations behind Hitler’s Nazism; Friedrich Nietzsche, a man who completely rejected the belief of God, embracing his ideas that “what we call truth is a mobile army of metaphors, metonyms, and anthropomorphimisms,” and what we believe to be “truth” is nothing more than an illusion we create in our mind to serve the purpose of our imagined belief that evil exists in the world and God can over come evil.
To Friedrich Nietzsche all human beings were weak with nothing more than the desire to “will the power” over other people. Nietzsche was a relativist and Freudian proto-type; he denied all absolute truths, including God; he claimed knowledge was nothing more than “useful fiction” created by the human mind to suit human needs; people believe whatever they want to believe, and what ever people see, people can perceive it the way they want. Nietzsche claimed God was nothing more than some imagined “idol” making human beings victims of “wishful thinking.” The doctrinal belief in God and following a religion based on him was completely unreasonable to Nietzsche who claimed God is nothing more than “the effect of what is believed true is mistaken for truth,” and believing in such a figment of the imagination is a psychological error that needed reevaluation for its value.
Friedrich Nietzsche’s philosophy is the concept behind relativism.
St. Thomas of Aquinas wrote: “And so it is evident that as to the general principles of reason, whether speculative or practical, there is a single standard of truth and right for everyone which is known by everyone. However when it comes to the specific conclusions of the speculative reason, the truth is the same for everyone but everyone does not equally know it.”
According to the relativist Nietzsche, Aquinas was essentially crazy; it is completely impossible for any human being to “observe outside” such a phenomenon as God, life, creation, etc.; God is simply relative psychology, and whatever we do is simply fine if it is what makes each individual happy.
Atheist enthusiast and Godless Jew Sigmund Freud agreed 100 percent with the anti-Semite German Nietzsche, claiming “the truth is the same for everyone,” and the belief in God is dangerous to the whole of mankind; God is nothing more than an “illusion” created in the mind of a child seeking a parent figure and a way to make good on all the bad things one does in life.
I’m surprised Hitler didn’t erect a statue in honor of the Godless, Atheist Jew loved by the anti-Semite who fostered Hitler’s Nazism.
Again, it’s all relative; do unto others as you wish, because they’re nothing but matter and don’t matter one, damn bit. Relativism is the concept that has been motivating violent criminals in America to commit the most heinous crimes, knowing all along they can commit these crimes, be imprisoned a short time, be paroled, recommit their crimes and be declared mentally insane because they had no understanding of their relative actions.
Thus we come to the latest relative act of nothingness.
On July 23, 2007, two 20-times convicted criminals broke into a Cheshire, Connecticut home and proceeded to torture, rape and murder an innocent family Manson-style. Why, because they could; because the actions were relative; because human beings are nothing more than matter and God does not exist to atone to on judgment day.
At 3 A.m., Joshua Komisarjevsky and Steven Hayes broke into the home of Dr. Petit and his family while the family slept. Waking Dr. and Mrs. Petit, the two men beat Dr. Petit with a baseball bat, tied him up and threw him down his basement steps; then the two men spent the night repeatedly raping Jennifer Hawke-Petit and her two daughters Michaela 17 and Hayley 11. In the morning on July 24, 2007, one man forced Jennifer to drive to the bank to withdraw $15,000 dollars, and then forced Jennifer to drive to a gas station for a container of gasoline.
Jennifer alerted a bank teller to the violence taking place and the teller phoned police. But it was too late. By the time police arrived, the Petit house was in flames, Dr. Petit was laying on his front lawn after managing to crawl out of the basement, Jennifer was found strangled inside the burning house, and her daughters were found tied to their beds where they died from smoke inhalation. The two men were caught as they tried to rush a police barricade.
The two monstrous freaks have been arraigned on charges of assault, sexual assault, burglary, kidnapping, robbery, larceny, and risk of injury to children, and are being held on 30 million dollars bail.
Police say the men could face the death penalty, but prosecutor Michael Dearington is not sure if that is the avenue he wishes to pursue even though “it’s public consensus to wish to fry these guys.”
I know a good avenue Mr. Dearington, the street the two non-human specimens committed their vile acts—the Petit’s street. Let the neighbors and relatives of the family have the criminals for one hour.
As for the death penalty, there will be many who decry this form of punishment as inhumane treatment which serves only to lower ourselves to the level of the criminal. I’m perfectly happy with lowering the switch on the electric chair. Death penalty opponents insist killing murderers does not prevent violent crime. If that’s true, why was there less crime in the 1950’s before liberal activist Supreme Court Judge Earle Warren released tens of thousands of violent criminals in America who went on heinous murder sprees which continue today?
Could God have been on to something when he said “Thou shalt not murder” because it’s wrong, and “an eye for an eye” must be dispensed to those who break laws, because justice must be enacted to “give unto Caesar that which is Caesar’s.”
The Connecticut Parole Board claims the Petit murder case is so shocking because it simply does not fit the mode of the two criminals who viciously murdered. The two men never raped and murdered before, according to the state of Connecticut, so why would repeated offenders suddenly decide to go on a killing spree.
Give me a freaking break; you don’t know why criminals suddenly decide to kill? Because they’re criminals and have no belief of right and wrong; they believe they can kill because life is worthless and human beings are nothing more than innate objects to use for obliging one’s means. And for the record, if someone has been arrested and imprisoned 20 times, the odds are that someone is going to up the ante the next committed crime.
The two non-human pieces of crap are Nietzsche proto-types. Everything those two men did to an innocent family was simply relative; it never actually happened unless people wish to perceive things as true. That is what Friedrich Nietzsche claimed, and that is why the world’s justice systems are so liberal—no one is doing wrong; wrong is in the eyes of the beholder; we’re all equal and must treat criminals as equal, humane beings deserving of respect we give all other; what you call deviance is wrong only to you unless of course you become the victim, then you’ll scream like a banshee for justice.
This too is how the Connecticut Parole Board views crime—its relative, just let the bastards go; they did their time; all people are fixable.
Connecticut’s justice system truly believed two freaks of Satan were rehabilitated because they spent the past year in a half-way house. How sweet. They reported to their parole officer weekly, they were nice to the parole officer, they bathed daily, combed their hair, brushed their teeth, flossed, wore deodorant, shaved, they even used hair product; they pet the neighbor’s kitty cat and waved to the Postman daily; they couldn’t possibly rape and murder horror movie-style.
If our justice system does not throw Nietzsche sociology and psychology down the toilet and replace it with God Almighty and his Ten Commandments, the violence perpetuating throughout America will continue on a downward spiral out of rejection of God and the indoctrinated religion of relativism. Without the belief and knowledge there truly is a God who holds us all accountable for right and wrong, humans will continue to look at others as illusions toward which we can do unto others as we so please.
How relatively Nietzsche.
