Maybe he just wasn't a very good cook?

Maybe the dangly thing was a bit unnerving. Or maybe it was the chest hair, we will never know.

Maybe the dangly thing was a bit unnerving. Or maybe it was the chest hair, we will never know.

Well, Volke knew about the dangly thing from the get-go and she looks pretty hair-free.



But, we'll probably never know the motive for sure; you're right.

According to the latest media reports, the couple was married late last year and nobody who knew them suspected they were having significant problems or anything.

Her mother, who refers to Mayang as "her son Febri", says that Mayang was sending money back to Indonesia to support her teen sisters; she was the family breadwinner. The mother says Mayang recently settled in Brisbane to be with her husband, but she was bored and wanted to move back to Bali. Mayang was also reportedly a jealous and temperamental person who could explode when angered.

Mayang's friend have been posting about what a nice, kind, shining star she was. They're understandably shocked and sad.

Volke, who's originally from Austria, is being described as very shy, quiet, and kinda cold. LE in Australia says he had no documented history of mental illness and no criminal record before he slit his own throat after killing his wife.

According to The Heavy, police are investigating Mayang's prostitution as a possible motive in her murder.

Mayang was charging up to $500 an hour for her services, marketing herself online as a “top high-class Asian shemale’’.

She described herself online as a high-class “international escort”, with listings dating back to 2011. One advertisement read “grab me now before late”, with prices ranging from $200 for 30 minutes up to $500 for an hour outcall.

One ad read: “Better in real life. Pictures are always real. Real deal pre-op functional hot TS. With a great fit and hot body to enjoy.”

In an advertisement on the UK version of Backpage - a site similar to Gumtree - posted back in March 2013, the transsexual wrote she was a first-timer in London who was 'busty' and 'extra hot in bed' with a 'big banana'.

More recently, Ms Prasetyo advertised on the same website for the Teneriffe area, charging $200 for half an hour to $500 an hour for her 'top high class international' services as a 'shemale' escort. 'Anyone need some hot pleasure, I am here ready to bring you to high level,' the ad said.

Sad case.

I don't know if any of you heard of Sharon Marshall or if there are any existing threads on her here.But her story was always just so sad to me.I was hoping they'd find her true identity one day and the finally have.

She was finally identified after more than 20+ years of police investigating her true identity.
Her real name was Suzanne Maree Sevakis and Frank Delano Floyd kidnapped her when she ws 6.They lived as father and daughter for most of her life and were suspects in a murder case of a stripper.

Before she was killed in a hit run ( police suspect Floyd of this )Suzanne had a son.Who was later kidnapped from his school by Floyd and is still missing but presumed dead.

Frank was her step dad and when Suzanne's mother was put in jail for 30 day Frank kidnapped her.She was one of four siblings but Frank left her older sisters in foster care and took Suzanne and her infant brother.The brother is believed to be dead per what Floyd confessed to the FBI ( he murdered him supposedly).The infant is still missing.


This is the blog of the guy who wrote a book on her life called a A Beautiful Child, and has some good info on there:

Sharon Marshall's case always made me sad too, Ironing Broad. I'm glad her birth identity has reportedly finally been confirmed.

I followed the case for years. While her true identity wasn't established, it was known that she was kidnapped by that asshole Floyd when she was very young, she was molested by him her whole life, she was pimped out by him, and he almost certainly ran her down like a dog in the road and killed her the year after he killed her dancer friend Cheryl Commesso. After which, he kidnapped and very likely killed Sharon's son Michael (testing later determined that Michael was not Floyd's biological son)

Floyd was finally able to be arrested and charged when photos of Cheryl being tortured were found in a truck that he'd previously owned and turned over to the police.

Floyd has been on death row for over 10 years for Cheryl's murder. Whether he murdered them or not (and I think he did), Sharon and Michael were also victimized their whole lives by Franklin Floyd. He's a real piece of shit.


Victims: Michael Hughes, Sharon Marshall, Cheryl Commesso

That sounds like a very interesting case. I've never heard about it before now. That sicko took pix of his torture of her. Jesus. Whatta Godsend it was having those pix found!

[IroningBroad]

Poor Suzanne..I can only imagine what this POS must've put her through all her life.Not to mention all of his other victims.

And her poor son..Frank just couldn't except that this little boy would never be his to torture anymore so he goes on and kills him just like his mom ( and I most definitely believe he killed them).

Hope they execute this mf'er soon.He deserves it.

This is Kevin Davis, 18.



He was just sentenced to life in prison for the first degree murder of his mom, Kimberly Hill - 50. On March 27^th of this year, Davis beat his mom with a hammer, strangled her with a cord, and stabbed her in the head with scissors at their home in Corpus Christi, Texas.

Then, he put his hand inside her head to feel her brain. After which, he raped her dead body. He later told investigators, "guess I lost my virginity to a dead corpse."

His motive: he was bored with life and didn't like people. He wanted to kill himself, he said, but he killed his mom instead because, in his words, "I have no standards; I'm a terrible and disgusting person."

According to Davis' confession, he had the best mother who didn't deserve to die. But, he wouldn't take it back and he'd probably kill again if he had the opportunity.

The defense called no witnesses to testify on his behalf.

*****Engaged mom-of-3 shot dead after snubbing man at Detroit bar, family says

http://m.nydailynews.com/news/crime/enga...-1.1966316

snip:

A mother-of-three was shot dead by a callous criminal who opened fire after the 27-year-old spurned the man’s advances inside a Detroit bar, the woman’s distraught family says.

Mary “Unique” Spears, 27, was fatally shot in the head early Saturday outside the American Legion Joe Louis Post No. 375 on the city’s east side, while five other family members were wounded by gunfire in the hail of bullets.

The family, including Spears’ fiancée, were celebrating the life of a man whose funeral they had just attended, a distraught family member told WJBK-TV. The good times quickly turned tragic when the 38-year-old suspect, unknown to the family, began to harass Spears.

“He said, 'Can I get your name, your number,'" the relative, who asked not to be identified over fear of retribution, told the FOX affiliate. "She said, 'I have a man, I can't talk to you.'"
-----------------------------------

Then he shot her 3 times!! All because she wouldn't give him her name and number.


I mean I know this happened in Detroit but damn..some people just don't handle rejection well.

RAPIST OF 100-YEAR-OLD WOMAN ARRESTED

The assault occurred overnight on Monday and Tuesday of last week, (Wichita Police Captain) Livingston said. The woman walked to a neighbor’s house at about 7:15 a.m. Sept. 30 and told the neighbor there were people inside her house in the 800 block of South Crestway.

The woman, who lives alone, said she was awakened about 9 p.m. by the intruders inside her house, police said. One or more burglars forced their way inside through a back door. They remained in the house for several hours.

“She’s a strong and brave woman who was able to give us information,” Livingston said of the victim. “She seems to be doing fine, and her family is taking care of her.” (HOTD: great to hear that she's okay.)

Police soon had a suspect, but waited to make an arrest while they collected more evidence, police said.


^ Suspect: 35-year-old Kasey Nesbitt has multiple convictions for theft and burglary.

[Duchess]

Yes, she is strong & brave! Poor old girl. Whatta horror to go through and have no fricken control, no way to make someone leave you alone, no way to make strangers get out of your home. I hope the judge throws the book at those fuckers.

Surely wonderful things happen to people to balance out some of this crap.

HALLOWEEN HIT AND RUN


13-year-old twin sisters Lexi and Lexandra Huerta Perez and their 13-year-old friend Andrea Gonzalez were struck and killed Friday night by a hit-and-run driver while trick-or-treating in Santa Ana, California. RIP.



Today, Santa Ana police Chief Carlos Rojas announced that Jaquinn Bell, 31, (pictured above) of Orange was booked for investigation of felony hit-and-run causing death.

Authorities say the three girls were struck and killed in a crosswalk, only two blocks from home. Police believe Bell was driving with his two teen children (17 and 14) when he struck and killed the girls. Bell's damaged black Honda SUV was found a short distance from where the collision occurred.

Bell has previous convictions for reckless driving and DUI and had recently been charged with a different hit and run.

Very sad story and big news locally.

It was disheartening reading the comments with some of the news articles when the story first broke and police were looking to identify the driver.

I read many comments stating that the girls were probably here illegally anyway. Several blamed the girls' moms for not accompanying their thirteen-year-olds around the block. Others were adamant that 13 is too old to be trick or treating and the girls were probably up to no good.

Man, there are a lot of ignorant haters out there.

Georgia -- Family Murdered

There have been a lot of horrible shooting stories coming out of Georgia over the last couple of months.


Flowers and teddy bears lay on the street outside the home of a shooting scene where authorities say five people are dead. RIP.

Yesterday afternoon, a man shot an entire family, killing four of them, in Douglasville, GA.

Neighbors say those killed included two children, the woman and a man who was in the house at the time. Two other children were wounded and taken to the hospital in critical condition.

The woman was the ex wife of the shooter. She and one of their children tried to flee and were executed in the middle of the street where the man also shot himself dead. The shooter was the father of all four of the children. Identities have not been released because police are still working to notify next of kin.

The 911 call from neighbors came around 3 p.m. By the time the police arrived to the Willow Tree Circle address neighbors were already outside tending to the victims until the paramedics showed up.

“I’ve been in law enforcement in Douglas County for 20 years and this is the worst I’ve ever seen.” Lt. Glenn Daniel, the spokesman for the Sheriff’s Office told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

The killer and the victims of the mass murder/suicide have now been identified.


Cedric Prather ^ is the man responsible for Saturday's massacre in Georgia.


Prather and his ex-wife, Latoya Andrews (^ pictured with her children), had been divorced for five years. Just prior to the killings, they'd been exchanging heated texts about taxes and child support.

Police say Prather, 33, shot six people (killing four of them) before killing himself. Investigators say he shot his ex-wife and her boyfriend 33-year-old Joseph Terry Brown.

He also shot and killed two of the children he and Andrews had together: seven-year-old daughter London Prather and nine-year-old son Jerimiah Prather. Fifteen-year-old Demesha Owens was also shot, but survived. She is Andrew's daughter but was raised by Prather. Seven-year-old Jada Brown, the daughter of Andrews and Brown, also survived the shooting. The two survivors are in critical but stable condition.

Another teenage boy, 13-year-old Jarrod Prather, was not at the home at the time of the shooting.

Sicko Rapist Teen Convicted -- 16 Years Later

I remember reading the news story way back when this crime was first committed. It still makes me mad to think about what was done to little Robbie Middleton.



^ Don Collins, 29, was convicted of capital murder in Texas on Monday, the Houston Chronicle reports. His victim, Robbie Middleton (pictured above), died three years ago of a rare cancer suffered by burn victims, allowing prosecutors to go forward with the murder charge.

Collins was 13 years old on June 28, 1998, when he confronted Middleton on a wooded trail in Splendora, Texas. He abducted the boy on his eighth birthday, tied him to a tree, doused him in gasoline and set him on fire. On his deathbed, Middleton recorded a video where he named Collins and revealed that he'd been sexually abused before he was burned. Prosecutors argued that Collins lit the victim on fire to keep him quiet.

Middleton -- who was on the way to invite a friend to his first sleepover -- suffered burns on 99 percent of his body and underwent more than 150 surgeries over the next 13 years.

Collins is a “despicable, disgusting excuse for a human being,” a prosecutor told the New York Daily News. The Middleton family's 16 year court battle was almost lost when prosecutors initially dropped charges against Collins for lack of evidence. But in March, prosecutors were able to charge Collins as an adult based on a law that wasn't on the books at the time of the crime.

Jurors deliberated for more than three hours on Monday afternoon after hearing from more than 40 witnesses in the case.

Collins isn't eligible for the death penalty because he was a minor at the time of the attack. He faces up to 40 years in prison.

Another Family Massacre -- Missouri

It used to be shocking to read about cases where entire families were murdered; very rare. Over the last 7 months, there have been at least three massacres of families by other family members.

-Ron Haskell executed 6 members of his extended family last July in Texas. He's in jail.
-Cedric Prather shot 6 people earlier this month in Georgia; killing his wife and two of his children in the process. He's dead, self-inflicted at the scene.

Now this.


Thursday, ^ Joseph Jesse Aldridge, 36, shot and killed 7 members of his family in Tyrone, Missouri. In the process of investigating the murders, police discovered Aldridge's mother dead at her home -- they believe she died of natural causes and that may have set off Aldridge (who reportedly had ongoing disputes with some of the cousins he shot dead in the town of 50).

The killer also was found dead Friday morning in a running GMC pickup on the highway more than 15 miles away; he apparently shot himself.

Family Murder/Suicide -- Utah

Another one...


With the exception of their 19-year-old son (who, along with his grandmother, discovered his parents and siblings dead), the entire Strack family -- pictured above--was wiped out in a single incident back in September.

Recently, the Utah State Medical Examiner released his final report.
-The children Emery, 12, and Zion, 11, all died of a lethal cocktail of diphenhydramine and methadone. Homicide.

-The death of 14-year-old Benson, who also drank the same lethal cocktail and left a goodbye letter to a friend prior to his death, was listed as "undetermined" because it's not clear if he was able to consent to suicide.

-The mother, Kristi Strack, died of a combination of those drugs plus dextrophan and doxylamine. Suicide.

-The father, Benjamin Strack, died from toxic levels of heroin. Suicide.

The parents had a history of drug use. The couple reportedly wanted to escape the evil in the world and feared the apocalypse. They'd also befriended and visited a man who murdered two family members back in 2008.
