To anyone following the Lisa Irwin missing persons case, there is a liar alert concerning Debbie Bradley's pleas for more money. The "Find Lisa Irwin" site has a paypal button for donations, but why? There are no searches for Lisa, who would be two years old by this time, in progress. There are no awareness campaigns. There isn't even an age progressed picture of Lisa. The monies collected by the site have not been accounted for properly, and all of the attempts to find Lisa have been funded by taxpayors. Lisa's parents, Debbie Bradley and Jeremy Irwin, have worked hard to keep Lisa's case out of the news lately, instead of in the news. They get angry and threaten anyone who writes about Lisa or holds vigils for Lisa. They refuse to assist law enforcement in any way to solve the mystery of what happened to their daughter. So why do they need money? The only people who need to be paid are the two criminal defense attorneys hired by Lisa Irwin's parents and the local liquor stores.

A Whole Year Of Grownup Time For Debbie Bradley
Lisa Irwin was ten months old when she disappeared from her parents' home in Kansas City, Missouri on October 3, 2011. Her mother, Debbie Bradley, claims she was not watching Lisa at one of the times she cited as the last time she saw her baby (there were three or four such cited "last times" Debbie Bradley saw Lisa) because she wanted to sit on her front steps, drink whiskey and wine, and enjoy "grownup time". Then the baby went missing. No phone calls were made to law enforcement until early the following day, despite the presence of two working cell phones in Debbie Bradley's possession. Even if an account connected to a cell phone is revoked for nonpayment, it is still the Federal Communications Law that 911 calls be permitted. So Miss Debbie has no excuse. Also, Debbie accessed the internet from one of the cell phones after one of the "last times" she saw her child, but before the police were called.
After a whole year of "grownup time", Miss Debbie still isn't ready to actually grow up and be responsible for her daughter. A press release issued by Kansas City Police in Missouri stated that Debbie Bradley still will not sit down with them and interview about what happened in her home on October 3, 2011. She also has not been able to pass a polygraph during that year of "grownup time" she has enjoyed. Joe Picerno, the criminal attorney who represents her in Missouri, says he was shocked that police would issue a press release without his, Debbie Bradley's, or Jeremy Irwin's (Jeremy is Lisa's father, but not Debbie's husband) permission. That, alone, is amazing. While Lisa is a minor, she is not anyone's personal possession. The police are looking for her, just as they would for any other missing citizen. It's their job to issue press releases in unsolved missing persons cases. That's how they keep the public informed that the case has not been solved. It is not up to Joe Picerno to allow or disallow the police to protect little Lisa Irwin. Also, Joe Picerno represents Debbie Bradley and Jeremy Irwin, NOT Lisa Irwin. Joe Picerno is not being paid to protect Lisa's welfare or interests at all. And, of course, Debbie Bradley and her sugar daddy Jeremy Irwin have not been ruled out as suspects: why should the police ask for their permission before looking for Lisa? Geesh!

Missing Lisa Irwin, Trolls, And Hypertrolls
"I came to your blog because I have alerts set up to notify me whenever some a hole such as yourself makes a post about her."........This is a comment left on another blog, Solarspectrum Tarot, from someone who not only disagreed with the blogger and accidently ended up in passionate online discourse that got ugly, but read a Tarot reading in which no name but that of Lisa Irwin, the ten month old girl who disappeared in Kansas City, Missouri, was mentioned and INTENTIONALLY, I repeat, INTENTIONALLY, harassed the blog owner and the others engaged in discussion about the Lisa Irwin missing persons case. Here's more: "I have an alert setup so that I can refute idiots like yourself." Since no one had even mentioned the names of Lisa's parents, Debbie Bradley or Jeremy Irwin, this troll apparently went into overdrive just because a blogger followed up a request to open a new discussion about Lisa Irwin, and help keep her case in the open, keep it discussed, and also to help keep people looking for her. This troll is obviously someone who not only does not want Lisa found, but does not want the exasperation of Kansas City Police at Debbie Bradley and Jeremy Irwin's lack of cooperation with efforts to find their daughter remembered or discussed! Forget that no one has actually accused Miss Debbie of a crime; forget that no one knows exactly what to accuse Debbie of doing........this person just wants the attention drawn to little Lisa's missing persons case, along with all efforts to find her, to simply go away. The best way to make the case "go away", or, in the lexicon of someone whose personality is not chemically maintained, get resolved, is to cooperate with law enforcement and discuss all possible whereabouts of Baby Lisa. But here, we have a troll in overdrive, or a "hypertroll".
While it's true that the population at large is probably not in a position to locate Lisa, and indeed, there are no age progressed pictures of her yet, the case was publicized by the media and by Kansas City Police Department in hopes that if anyone saw Lisa or knew anything about the case that law enforcement didn't know, tips could be given. Also, pictures of Lisa as a baby were shared with the general public. Of course, a few segments of the public were already aquainted with the infamous Debbie Bradley, and unhappily so. Debbie Bradley has mental health issues, addiction problems, and does not get along with people very well. Also, Debbie Bradley and Jeremy Irwin were presenting as an engaged-to-be-married couple, but the media, not the couple, blew the lid off the fact that Debbie Bradley is still married to someone else. In this country, one can marry as many times as one wishes, but one must get divorced between "I do's". Also, Debbie has one son, not two. Jeremy has a son, and that little boy's mother is unable to maintain a relationship with him without going to court to force and reinforce court orders. Could this be, at least in part, because of the combative personality had by Debbie Bradley? It seems kinda, sorta possible! Could anyone who knows Debbie imagine her making the act of picking up her son and dropping him off as difficult as possible for Rasleen Raim, the mother of Jeremy's son? Hmmmmm.........I'll bet one of these hypertrolls knows the answer to that!
Lisa Irwin is still missing. Since we have no news of the progress of the investigation, and Lisa's parents have not attempted, at all, to keep the public informed and searching, it is even more important to write and publish information about the case. No matter who made Lisa disappear, hoping that the case will "go away" is allowing a criminal, (yes, someone TOOK Lisa, she did not walk away by herself) to evade apprehension indefinately. Also, Lisa's unwed parents should both push the FBI for an age progressed picture of their daughter. And finally, if no one writes about the case, someone may accidently organize a vigil, or something similar, and make Debbie Bradley very upset. It's true; not only do the hypertrolls discourage internet discourse about little Lisa, Lisa's parents no longer want her remembered in public by way of vigils. They do not want any attention given to the case by anyone.

Debbie Bradley Thinks The Police Should Do More
For once, that oversized piglet in Missouri, named Debbie Bradley, whose ten month old daughter disappeared on either October 3 or October 4 of last year, said something that I think is true. She got on national television the day before yesterday and whined, among other drama ridden statements, that the "police aren't doing enough"! It seems that after ten month old Lisa Irwin disappeared, Jeremy Irwin's (Lisa's dad) credit card disappeared, as well. $69.00 was charged to at a stationary store. But here's the twisted part of all this: Joe Tacopina, Jeremy's lawyer, got on TV with Piggie and Jeremy and, with a straight face, agreed with Jeremy that someone used it at a website to change someone's name! As if! Cha.....sorry Jeremy, but it costs a lot more than $69.00 to change someone's name. And "websites" don't offer that service; courthouses offer that service. Upon closer examination of this "website", it was discovered that only stationary was offered, not illegal name changing services. Geesh! Perhaps Debbie the Pig knows where the stolen credit card went, along with knowing where the baby went. Perhaps. Ya gotta admit, Jeremy, she seems like the type.
As for the police "not doing enough", I resent that! Jeremy Irwin and his live-in, Debbie Bradley, have taken public funds for searches that have gone absolutely nowhere, yet when the police wish to speak with either of them alone, the answer is always "no". The FBI is also looking for Lisa. Debbie is right, the police are not doing enough! By treating Jeremy and his girlfriend as if they were a married couple and allowing them to refuse to give individual statements, they have, in essence, not done enough. So there you have it; the fat piglet said something with which I can actually agree.
Ok, Jeremy........THIS is what a real parent who loves his child does; just click on this link. A real parent who loves his child also never leaves his child in the care of someone like Debbie Bradley. From dropping out of high school to choosing booze over the antipsychotic meds that would have rendered her slightly sane but still not very smart, her choices do not reflect any concern for her children, or yours.

Lisa Irwin's Parents Continue Charade
Lisa Irwin's parents, Jeremy Irwin and Debbie Bradley, were in the news again today. After about six weeks of relative silence concerning Lisa's missing persons case, they had a small "celebration" to commemorate the six month anniversary of their daughter's disappearance. Debbie did not attend, and Jeremy released balloons. They can call the whole affair a "vigil" if they wish, but vigils usually accompany prayer, sincerity, and honest efforts to make things better. Letting go of a few balloons hardly fits the bill. Balloons will certainly not bring back Lisa.
If Jeremy wanted to help locate his missing daughter, he would get a lot more mileage from sitting down with law enforcement, ALL BY HIMSELF, and discussing the events of October 4, 2011 in as much detail as he can remember. Allowing law enforcement to do a complete search of his property, including the shed and garden areas would be another step in the right direction. He might also allow both of Lisa's older brothers to spend some time away from himself and Debbie. They are potential witnesses to a terrible crime, and Jeremy and Debbie, especially Debbie, are potential suspects. Not charged suspects, but potential suspects. No one who witnesses a crime should have to co-exist all day, every day, with those against whom they may, one day, be compelled to testify. And, Jeremy should also stop enabling Debbie if he really wants to find Lisa. Her pre-crime behaviors were irresponsible and derelict, (drinking almost a whole box of wine and chasing it with liquor while caring for the kiddies?) and her post-crime behaviors have been dishonest and uncooperative. Cutting Debbie loose and standing on his own two psychological feet would probably help Lisa more than helium balloons in the sky....that is; if Jeremy really wants his daughter back.

Debbie Bradley, A Pig With Lipstick
This, folks, is what a pig with lipstick looks like. This is also what Debbie Bradley, of Kansas City, Missouri, looks like with lipstick, hair dye, rouge, and fake tears. (do TV studios use eye drops for that?) The only real thing about her on the recent episode of Dr. Phil was the obesity, which, apparently has increased and become even more real since October 4 of 2011, when she reported her ten month old daughter, Lisa Irwin, who was last seen on October 3, 2011, missing.
Since October, we have found that Debbie Bradley drinks like a fish, has had no problem purchasing alcohol for her underage brother, is married to someone other than Lisa's father, yet plays house with Lisa's father, (those morals do not cut it everywhere, folks....in a lot of places, a woman who does those things is called a WHORE) has given at least four different stories to law enforcement, has blocked the testimony of Lisa's older brothers, and is on antipsychotic medication and probably was a bad candidate for parenting responsibilities. We have also discovered, on the Dr. Phil episode, that she feels that these antipsychotic drugs mix just fine with alcohol, and that drinking the better part of a box of wine with the drugs that were prescribed to help her live among us like a sane person who does not harm or murder children is healthy. Dr. Phil did not call her out on this, either. That was disappointing, because as a psychiatrist, he certainly knows that consuming booze with antipsychotic pills is contraindicated.
Debbie Bradley is a little upset because a very truthful dog let law enforcement know that something smelled like death in places where little Lisa had been. Dogs, by and large, lie to police a lot less often than humans, so Debbie and her illicit bed buddy, Jeremy Irwin, will simply have to cope with the fact that law enforcement in Kansas City is more inclined to listen to the dog. She did mention something interesting, and that is the shed, behind her boyfriend's house. As many of us remember, a role of carpeting was confiscated from the shed. How close could little Lisa have been to the shed on the evening of October 3?
Mrs. Bradley also thinks that if she "did anything wrong" she would be in jail. Hmmm....that's interesting; what about O. J. Simpson and Casey Anthony?
Another interesting thing is a comment made by Debbie Bradley's defense attorney, Joe Tacopina. (Isn't it interesting that Mrs. Bradley had need of a defense attorney while her daughter still has not been found? Isn't it also interesting that Mrs. Bradley never hired a divorce attorney, so she could legitimately marry Lisa's father? Oh! That would stop her military benefits, wouldn't it?) Taco stated that "there is still significant leads" for police. Such bad grammer, for a high profile lawyer! Anyone who is smart enough to pass a bar exam should also know that "leads", when used in English as a noun, is plural, and one would therefore say that "there ARE still significant leads"! Oh well.....maybe Tacobella's expertise lies in media whoring, rather than actual law. Here's another misused plural noun that appeared in this episode of Dr. Phil, from Mrs. Debbie Bradley: she refers to Lisa's older brothers as "her boys". What she really means is "her boy", as one of those boys is not hers, and was ruthlessly kept from his mother by a very hostile and oppositional father, who apparently shares his bed with women who are married to other people. It naturally brings up a question....... is Mrs. Bradley still holding Lisa's oldest brother hostage?
Remembering what's real, nothing has changed. Jeremy Irwin still has not put the best interest of any of the children involved with his life first, and Debbie Bradley still looks like a pig, albeit with lipstick!

I Wonder If Jeremy Irwin Is Getting Nervous Part Two
A couple of days ago, I posted about the Missouri case of Jeremy Irwin, father of one year old Lisa Irwin, who was reported missing early on October 4. He and Rasleen Raim, the mother of his oldest child, are in a custody battle now, because Rasleen Raim is nervous about the alleged kidnapping, and the ramifications to the safety of her child. I don't blame her at all, but the attorneys for Debbie Bradley and Jeremy Irwin still think a mom should feel secure about her child being in Debbie Bradley's care. Shortly after Ms. Raim filed suit, a Washington judge gave Solomon Metalwala, the father of two year old, missing, Sky Metalwala, custody of Sky's older sister Maile. Now, a Florida judge has reversed a custody decision in the case of Michelle Parker, missing since last month, and Dale Smith's three year old twins. This apparently happened yesterday, after lots of public outcry about Dale Smith, Michelle's fiance and the primary suspect in her diappearance, initially got custody. It is not clear if this happened because of a bad act on the part of the father, more findings about his care of the children, or if evidence concerning the disappearance of the childrens' mom was discovered in his home, but it seems that suspects and defacto suspects in mysterious disappearances of other people are not always seen to make good primary custodians of children. Need I even mention Terri Horman? She does not have custody of any of her children right now, either.
What's likely to happen if custody to Jeremy Irwin's oldest child transfers to the mom? Well....let's see; Debbie Bradley will no longer be able to collect food stamps, using this child as one more member of the household. She no longer has little Lisa, and losing another child would leave her ineligable, which, in turn, means that she would have to get a job. What else would happen...one less deduction at tax time for Mr. Jeremy! ( I hope those unpaid taxes from a couple of years ago are paid, now, Jeremy!) Also, since Jeremy probably makes more money than his son's mother, he will probably have to pay child support. That would certainly be a bummer for Debbie and Jeremy.
What else might happen? A little boy might become reaquainted with his mom. A mom who may very well have been threatened or initmidated by a drunk and criminally inclined Debbie Bradley. He also may finally have a chance to learn about his mother's culture, and who he is. I doubt that Jeremy has gone to any great lengths to explain life outside of his own narrow sphere to any of his children. Also, it is an opportunity for this child to learn another language or two.
Something else might happen, too. It's a something that probably bothers the heck out of John Picerno and Joe Tacobella. It goes straight to the core of why I think Debbie and Jeremy MIGHT (!!) be hiding a few things from law enforcement. Not only have they given several different accounts of what happened on October 4 and admitted that Debbie drinks too much; Debbie and Jeremy have worked incredibly hard to block testimony from both of Lisa's older half brothers. But if they did not live with Debbie or Jeremy, who would stop them from giving statements to the police or testifying? Tacobella has no control over family court in Missouri, and Picerno is a criminal attorney, not a family law specialist.
Taco and Pico can spread as many lies as they wish about the situation. Just as surely as eleven minus eight equals three, both of those little boys will grow up one day. And there is no statute of limitations on murder.

I Wonder If Jeremy Irwin Is Nervous Yet

This reminds me a little of the drama in Kansas City, Missouri, surrounding the disappearance of one year old Lisa Irwin. She was reported missing on October 4, allegedly stolen from her crib. The dog didn't bark, the two other children didn't notice, and Lisa apparently did not become upset and start to cry, (yeah....right!) leaving the admittedly drunken mom undisturbed at the time of the alleged kidnapping. The thing about those two other children is that they both are Lisa's half brothers, meaning that they each have another parent somewhere outside of the situation. And now, the natural mother of Jeremy's son wants custody. I would want custody, too, if I were her; I hope she gets it. Here's the thing.......Debbie Bradley (the drunken mom who lost Lisa in the the first place) and Jeremy Irwin apparently have begun to craft a campaign to subvert all of the negative publicity, both in the media and word of mouth, that their case has garnered, due to their attitudes and lack of cooperation with law enforcement. Their legal representation has even reached for the throat of Rasleen Raim, the mother of Jeremy's son, as she seeks to remove her child from Debbie Bradley's custody. It seems to me that allowing this child to live with his mom would give Jeremy more free time to concentrate on looking for Lisa; he should really welcome her offer. His situation has changed, and it will never be the same again, not even if Lisa is found today.
This also sheds some light on something else Debbie and Jeremy have recently expressed, specifically that they want the vigils that take place near their house for Lisa to stop. Custody issues may be the true reason that Debbie and Jeremy want the vigils for Lisa to stop. Vigils, along with media and public attention in a missing child case keep everyone aware that the child is missing, but it also adds a bit of chaos to the atmosphere. I really think that Debbie and Jeremy know that as long as their daughter is missing, all of the chaos coming from all aspects of the case could be seen as unhealthy by a family law court judge and help Rasleen win her case to modify custody of her son. Also, if Lisa is found to have been the victim of foul play, the nature of the vigils could easily change, and rightfully so. Anyone remember Casey Anthony, and public reaction at her parents' home? I do not think Debbie and Jeremy's neighbors will like a situation like that any more than the Anthonys' neighbors did. Also......it is much harder to carry on any criminal activity while getting lots of attention from an always present, very interested, local public; and that probably comprises at least a small part of Debbie's problem with vigils.
I wonder if Debbie and Jeremy are paying attention to Sky Metalwala's case? The custody ruling in the Metalwala case does not set any legal precedents, but it does contain the key elements of estranged spouses and missing children. This is a sad day for families, when kidnapped siblings must be a consideration in family law court.

Debbie Bradley May Get More Grownup Time
It looks like one of Lisa Irwin's older brothers may have a chance to live with his real mom, Rasleen Raim. This looks like a win-win situation for everyone involved, except, possibly for Lisa. Of course, the only way for Lisa to win here would involve her parents cooperating with law enforcement; and since they have shown nothing but contempt for every attempt to locate Lisa, I don't think Debbie and Jeremy's cooperation will be forthcoming. Here's the thing.....I don't know why John Picerno, Debbie and Jeremy's Missouri criminal defense attorney, is adverse to Lisa's older brother moving out of the Bradley drunkathon. The child would be able to live with away from the media circus surrounding his family's life, and would have an opportunity to become reaquainted with his mom, (if I were a gambler, I would BET there is more to THAT story than we have heard......and I would BET that it involved intimidation on Jeremy's part....but that's just my opinion at the moment) and Debbie would have more "grownup time". Of course, this may be a misnomer, because in my world, "grownup time" usually follows the event of growing up, rather than preceding it, but Debbie and Jeremy do lots of things differently than many of the rest of us would.
John Picerno makes statements to the effect that Rasleen Raim has not seen her child since 2008, then says that it has been six years since 2008, (by my count, it has been three years and some months since 2008) and he completely ignores that many, many absentee FATHERS regain custody or visitation every day after not seeing their children for even longer intervals. It's nothing new, and certainly nothing over which to demonize Rasleen Raim. I honestly believe Raim will at least get visitation. I hope she does not allow Picerno or Tacobella to intimidate her.
One of the ways this could actually help Lisa's whereabouts become known will be if Debbie Bradley is excluded from any court proceedings involving Jeremy Irwin, Rasleen Raim, and their child. Debbie Bradley, after all, is not Irwin's wife, she is merely someone with whom he cohabits, and this should not grant her any custodial rights. If Jeremy must enter a court room all by himself, and speak about his home life, and what he and his girlfriend have to offer a child, after losing a child and admittedly being too drunk to remember what happened at the time, more details might emerge. Details that might never emerge in Debbie Bradley's presence.
Of course, Jeremy will probably have to pay child support. He will have one less deduction at tax time. And, one less child in the Irwin household will probably reduce Debbie's foodstamps and other benefits enough to drive her into the workforce. If Rasleen Raim wins this case, it's win-win.

Debbie Bradley, after all, is not Irwin's wife, she is merely someone with whom he cohabits, and this should not grant her any custodial rights. If Jeremy must enter a court room all by himself, and speak about his home life, and what he and his girlfriend have to offer a child, after losing a child and admittedly being too drunk to remember what happened at the time, more details might emerge. Details that might never emerge in Debbie Bradley's presence.
Of course, Jeremy will probably have to pay child support. He will have one less deduction at tax time. And, one less child in the Irwin household will probably reduce Debbie's foodstamps and other benefits enough to drive her into the workforce. If Rasleen Raim wins this case, it's win-win.

Lisa Irwin's Family Moves Back, Brother Blake Might Move Out
The mother of Jeremy Irwin's son, Blake, has filed for custody of her son. Hopefully, she will win, and this will get him away from media circus that seems to be following his dad and his dad's girlfriend, Debbie Bradley, ever since their daughter, Lisa, went missing on October 3. This is probably the best way to bring some peace and stability back into this little boy's life, and hopefully remove the influence of Daddio shacking up with a drunken, uneducated woman who is still married to someone else. Seriously.......if any of my children were court ordered to live in a situation such as that, I would have been fighting it, tooth and nail, a long time ago. Also, if this child witnessed anything on the night of October third that could help law enforcement find his sister, testifying might be a lot easier if he lives with his mom, and does not have to live in the situation from which his sister disappeared.
Of course, Debbie and Jeremy's lawyer, Joe Tacopina (or was that Tacobella?) has put a truly crazy spin on this. First of all, he wants us to know that Blake's mom has not seen him in six years. But.....she lost custody of him in 2008. I went over this several times, and no matter how many times I count it up, it adds up to three years, or possibly three years and some months, not six! The next part of the spin is even weirder; Tacobella thinks that child support and custody are the SAME issue! Well.....he says he thinks that. He prolly doesn't really think that, though. He says that Blake's mom can't have Blake because she she owes child support? Guess what, Taco.......A child is not an item in a store, on layaway, that one can only take home after paying the purchase price! Child support, and custody and vistation, are two completely separate things. Whatever happened to the child's best interest?
I sincerely hope Missouri does not force this little boy to stay in a home that was obviously not safe for his little sister. It looks to me like the worst that can happen here is that Debbie Bradley will be down one person in her home when she applies for food stamps and other benefits, and Jeremy will have one less deduction when he does his taxes next year.
