Wow, SO - hello - I'm new to this thread. I recall hearing about the Tim Bosma disappearance when it happened and have briefly heard of Laura Babcock over the last few years. I have finally immersed myself in the case(s), and... wow.
Still catching up with everything, but I find it extremely difficult to believe that Christina Noudga had no knowledge of what was happening around her. That being said, maybe I say that as I'm quite a nosy girlfriend, or nosy person in general (respectfully so). So if my boyfriend was continuously bringing trailers by and generally doing suspicious activities, damn right I'd be asking questions. And I'd want those answers, too. But perhaps CN really didn't care, and for that reason, didn't ask too many questions. It didn't matter to her either way. I'm not sure... I'm just blabbing. But I don't have a lot of respect for her, lets put it that way.
I find myself really heartbroken for Laura Babcock. The relationship between her and Dellen really reminded me of the volatile one I had with my ex. He wasn't as scummy as DM, but on the right path. It was unhealthy. Thankfully though, my ex and I had completely different social circles and I had a good, supportive group of friends, and his friends weren't quite the low-lives that DM and MS etc are. My point is that LB was so clearly entranced with DM - and he knew that. And it seemed that Laura surrounded herself (not necesserily on purpose, I'm not blaming her) with people who couldn't have cared less about her wellbeing. Besides her own family, it doesn't appear that anybody really had her back, ever. With the exception of Shawn Lerner (spelling?), who was active in searching for her.
Anyway... DM is an abismol excuse for a human being. I don't think the fact that he's representing himself helps his defence whatsoever. I understand his tactics, but they're doing more harm than good, IMO.
Sorry for all the blabbing. If this goes against anything, feel free to delete my post!
