This is absolutely amazing, at least Phyllis received the letter eventually, even if it was 77 years later. So many peoples lives were destroyed by the war, even the lives of the living. This does not make up for 77 years of heartbreak, waiting for more letters or for him to knock on her door...
It seems to me as though the maternal grandparents didn't really want to raise their grandchildren and so didn't really give them much love or nurturing. The one thing the maternal grandparents did do was to tell the children that they are raising them because their mother ran off etc. The...
Such a tragic story. This unfortunate woman literally ran from a violent dangerous husband to a murderer. Her daughter now knows that her mother loved her and didn't abandon her. Her heart is now at peace. :rose:
Thanks Champaign.......so Rick will have to face the Supreme Court Judge and hear in graphic detail exactly what the Judge thinks of his grisly gory crimes and the sentence imposed, then he gets frog marched off in handcuffs by a couple of big imposing guards.
The whole vile family are depraved and criminal, the photo you have posted of Rick Thorburn as a pall bearer at Tialeigh's funeral is one that disgusted all of us TGY. It is the lack of justice so far that has enraged all of us.
That is a good description Trooper "so repellant and so deeply...
What you have said above is what we all find so repugnant....he was abusing little girls in his care, and he was also in the foster care system.
That is what Tialeigh's mother keeps saying......Tialeigh was in foster care - Rick Thorburn was her foster parent.!!!!
We will be watching for the...
Edited by me.....
I also hope this is what happens to him. I think all of us here on Websleuths hope this is what happens.
None of that vile family has received justice for what they did to Tialeigh, lets hope that Rick Thorburn gets it for the lot of them.
So old Rick doesn't even have to stand in the dock, face to face with the Supreme Court Judge, and hear all the grisly gory details, and what the Supreme Court Judge thinks of him, he will be on video link, he can day dream out on video link, and not even really listen.
It probably doesn't...
Thanks for the enlightening bit of info Trooper. I had completely lost heart with the failure of the system for poor Tialeigh.
At least old Rick will have to stand in the dock and hear what the Supreme Court Judge thinks of him. Then hear his sentence.
We can hope the other prisoners let him...
Mrs Julene Thorburn was obviously present when old Rick murdered Tialeigh and it is also obvious she cleaned up the mess afterwards, we know Tiah was placed in the shed whilst Julene cleaned up, then Julene and Rick put Tialeigh in the car and Rick drove off and disposed of the body. This is...
It has just been announced on the news that Rick Thorburn has pleaded GUILTY to the murder of Tialeigh Palmer.
He will be sentenced at a later date -- the 9th of May (I think).
I hope this doesn't mean that he carries the entire guilt himself -- it is obvious that there was a second party...
This is what the outcome can be from both parents being the result of generational jealousy and broken maternal bonds. When two such people get together and produce off-spring the result can be horrendous.
I had aquaintances who were in the above category, I had my suspicions, but people...
I understand completely what you are saying. Women/the mother carries the baby within their bodies for 9 months, then the newborn bonds with the mother holding holding them in her arms, even recognizing their mothers voice....the mother & baby bond.
Men were newborn babies once themselves...
