Maine Officials Upset Because Prison Guards Cannot Abuse In Secret Anymore

This video came from an article entitled Maine Officials Seeking Pepper-Spray Video Leak. It seems that a corrections officer at a prison in Windham named Shawn Welch, along with some cohorts, determined that donning protective gear and spraying pepper spray directly into the face of a restrained prisoner needing medical attention was appropriate. His boss fired him, but he appealed that decision, and the board of amusing people who run the prison decided to take him back after a thirty day suspension. Meanwhile, Maine officials are deeply concerned with who obtained and leaked footage of the incident to the public. Yep. That's a much, much bigger concern than any other matter here. Where's the eye-rolley when I need it?
 

 

TheTimes,They Are A'changin', Westboro Baptist Church

Now that Maine and Maryland have voted to recognize marriage within the gay culture, Westboro Baptist Church must be busy! They actually were not haunting their building, or any other part of Topeka last week. But two states must now celebrate the weddings of those whose nupitals were formerly shunned, and Reverend Phelps and et els are not likely to receive invitations! If he behaves, he may get to sneak into a gay bachelor party! We all know that's what he's really wanted all these years!! Here's  Michael Moore, interviewing the folks at Westboro Baptist Church!

 

Jessica Ridgeway Still Missing

 

An OMG moment, here.......the other day, someone in New England called in a tip in connection to this case, involving a missing Colorado ten year old girl named Jessica Ridgeway. Over two thousand miles away, in Maine, someone heard about the case and remembered that she had seen a blue station wagon with Colorado plates and a child resembling Jessica riding in it. She called it in as a tip, and guess what.......in New Hampshire, a recently abanadoned blue station wagon with Colorado plates was recovered behind a Walmart! No joke. Still, amid rumors and misinformation, closed highways, and unanswered questions, Jessica has not been found.

The tip about the blue station wagon may prove most helpful to law enforcement. Anyone who notices something that stands out in a missing persons case should speak up.

 

Trista Reynolds And Fifteen Minutes Of Fame

According to a couple of Maine radio personalities, specifically Mike and Ken, or the Daily Rundown, Trista Reynolds held a birthday vigil in Portland, Maine, for her daughter, Ayla, just to prolong her fifteen minutes of fame. They do not think that finding Ayla is important, or that Trista's efforts to keep the public aware of Ayla, or aware of child safety in general, has any place in the day to day life of any parent. Or so it seems, anyway. Here's a link to the podcast of what crap they spewed after the vigil in question: http://podcast.560wgan.com/wgan/3405283.mp3

Where to begin......? I know! Trista really isn't looking for fifteen minutes of fame, or even half an hour of fame. She's looking for her daughter. It's that simple. Ayla was reported missing by her father on December 16 of last year and has not been found. It has been almost four months. If Mike and Ken do not think that is serious, they are delusional. Also, they appeared to blame the whole situation on the misleading notion that Trista Reynolds had "lost custody" of her daughter. When a child's parents do not live together, the child is obliged, usually, to live with one or the other of his parents. The parent with whom the child does not reside does not "lose custody" or "parental rights", but merely does not have primary custody. This can happen for any reason, from military deployment to diabetic coma, and dozens of other mundane reasons. Trista was in rehab to sober up. If WGAN has a problem with alcoholic parents who relenquish custody temporarily in order to go to rehab, one might wonder if the station demonizes parents who make other arrangements for their children for things like kidney dialysis, or chemo. Trista did exactly what she should have been able to safely do......she trusted her child's father to care for her child while she was unable to do so. Had her rights truly been terminated, she would not have filed a motion in court to get Ayla back the day before Ayla was reported missing.

Who sponsors the Mike and Ken show, anyway? And why couldn't they use their air time to raise awareness of the fact that Ayla Reynolds is still missing after almost four months? Trashing Ayla's mother on the air and encouraging hostility toward her is not going to inspire anyone to look for Ayla or take better care of children in general. The community where Mike and Ken air is not enhanced by this, either. Comments such as the ones on the Daily Rundown only make Trista's job of finding her daughter more difficult.

OMG! Ayla Reynold's Dad Wants Nancy Grace To Visit Him

Justin Dipietro, uncooperative father of missing Ayla Reynolds, who is twenty months old, wants Nancy Grace to visit him and spend the day with him! He does not particularly like the publicity he is getting from her, and has challenged her to go to Maine, where he lives, and from where little Ayla disappeared, and visit for a day! This would certainly be interesting.......on site visits from Nancy Grace. The police would spend the whole day before Nancy's arrival searching, and leaving no stone unturned. Any potential witness would be interviewed prior to Nancy's arrival in order to avoid bad publicity. Justin's timeline would be firmly established, and all other occupants of the house where he lives would be identified. Nancy might even be able to straighten Justin's arrogant ass out! Yes; this could work.

If Nancy Grace went to Maine and spent the day with Justin Dipietro, she may actually find Ayla Reynolds, or a witness who actually knows something may decide to speak to her. She would also insist that he begin to actually look for his daughter. So far, no one has noticed him looking for her at all. I really hope Nancy takes Justin up on his challenge.......and one thing is for sure; Maine would never be the same after a visit from Nancy Grace!

 There's one more place I'd like to see Nancy Grace visit, and that's Oregon. I'd like to see her revisit Skyline Elementary, in Portland, where Kyron Horman was last seen on June 4, 2010. Then I'd like to see her visit Roseburg, where Terri Horman, Kyron's uncooperative step parent, is reportedly hiding indefinately inside of her parents' home, and cover this case one more time. From Portland Maine, to Portland Oregon.

Kyron Horman

Does Anyone Know This Child?

Little Boy Found In Maine

How sad. This little boy was found deceased, wrapped in a blanket, at the edge of a driveway. He was about 3' 8", and maybe 45 lbs. I thought about Kyron Horman when I saw this, but I can tell, by all of his pictures, that Kyron has begun to grow in his permanant teeth, and this little boy still has his baby teeth. Maine also called Oregon and checked, so I am pretty sure that he is not Kyron. If anyone glancing at my blog can help, here is his computer enhanced image.

Thanks,all, for looking. I hope this gets solved.
