    Why Amaral Doesn't Just Quit

    Another curious question--Why doesn't Amaral just quit? Most "disgraced cops" as he's been referred to, just slink away quietly and try to find new careers or find a job somewhere rather small and isolated and needy that will take them, tarnished or not. Think of disgraced cop Mark Furham in the...

    Prisoners Babysit Toddler Found on Highway

    Here's the story: http://abclocal.go.com/ktrk/story?section=news/national_world&id=6733340 The inmates were more concerned about the toddler's safety than his own sister, sadly. We live near a minimum security prison. The school buses cut through the prison grounds. One day, my...

    ID - Sage Aragon, 11, frozen to death, Blaine County, 25 Dec 2008

    This just broke my heart. Think about the father driving back to his own home and not even letting the mother know the children were being left to walk 10 miles in icy, snowy conditions: http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/headline/nation/6186220.html

    "Who would leave children that young alone?"

    Here's an article from today's Houston Chronicle that is rather eerie in similiarities: A mother was arrested for leaving a 4 year old and one year old twins alone in an apartment while she went out drinking. One of the LE authorities said, "Who would leave children that young alone?"...

    Contradictions

    I thought it would be helpful to have a thread where we look at just the contradictions in this case, and determine one at a time, whether they are meaningful contradictions, or just ordinary and not significant differences between what the McCanns said or did, and what actually occurred...

    TX - Cameron Boone, 3, dies in hot car, Houston, 14 Aug 2008

    When I saw this Houston Chronicle article, I thought they must have made a mistake on the location, but no, the second child in as many days has died from being left in a hot locked car...

    The Panorama transcripts--Self Fulfilling prophecy?

    This is the British show with interviews and comments from all parties British involved--Lots here to look over. One thing that jumped out at me, was Jane Tanner deciding to go check on her children because "the starters would be about to arrive." Sensible thinking on her part, no one likes...

    TX - Elizabeth Pena, 16, & Jennifer Ertman, 14, slain, Houston, 24 June 1993

    GUILTY MI - Brij, 65, & Aasha Chhabra, 56, dead in contract killing, Troy, 11 March 2008

    Sad story in another murder-for-hire over money. The man who arranged the execution style killings lived a lot closer to me than I'd like to admit. It's always the quiet ones you have to watch out for. http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/headline/metro/5627830.html

    TX - Newborn left at fire station, CPS still not happy

    I find this rather infuriating: A newborn baby was left at a far west Houston fire station--although not in the most common spot, still left according to the Baby Moses law in Texas, which says that a mother can leave a child up to 60 days old at a fire station or hospital without repercussions...
