Thank you darnudes for picking up where I wandered off, lol
 
Would someone mind posting the link to the video of Zahra speaking?
I would love to see/hear that :)
 
Graphic Question (Sorry)

What puzzles me is if the work site isn't the main site, why on earth would someone spread evidence there knowing that LE would look there more than likely. It would only point to murdering the child and make LE search harder. Is it possible that this is the main site and that is all the evidence there is? I have never heard of a crime of this type other than the one mentioned earlier about the airline pilot murdering his wife. And I realize she was a small child who weighed much less.

It was great until the last inning...and holy cow did we blow it. :snooty: I skimmed the last thread, I don't think I missed anything major.
 
We haven't heard anymore about the "glove" that was found. I'm interested in what type of glove it was. Was it the type that tree trimmers use? Was it a welding glove? A gardening glove? I believe that it is a big clue that LE has learned quite a bit from or it was just a nothing.
 
So...if not Zahra...what did the dogs "hit" on at the work site? Search has ended there, does that mean the wood chipper didn't have any evidence in it?
 
Thank you!! And first off, after looking at the FB (I dunno how I could miss that!!) I believe that's a pit mix. (I'm a pit lover tho so...just think it's a mix)
 
I need to strangle something. :furious: I finally brought myself to see the Myspace page. I can't believe this woman! Her pathetic page full of garbage meant for teenagers and blogs about having cancer she doesn't even have. :furious: It just turned my stomach to read her whining about her cancer and preparing her family for her death. Where is the bragging about this amazing little girl that she is so lucky to have in her life?

I think she was jealous of Zahra. For beating a major disease, the media attention she received. She blatantly tried copying her by claiming to be from Australia and having cancer multiple times.

I truly believe this poor baby ended up sick again. The stress, beatings and probably not being fed enough (5 min feedings?) made it impossible for her little body to stay well. Especially after already having cancer twice. I am sure these people avoided taking her back to any doctors for fear of being found out. So her body finally gave in to the sickness and abuse. And they disposed of her in a way that neither could ever be proven. :furious:

I read earlier (please don't ask for a link) that LE is dismanteling that woodchipper piece by piece. Let's all pray they get some good evidence from that.

Most prosthetic legs are now made of titanium. They look like thin rods of steel. These new appliances are very strong. The children in my practice who wear them are playing basketball, running track. One of my patients wants to play football. We'll see if Mayo Clinic lets him. What has me confused is where are her doctors.... Kids with cancer ( even though it was 5 years ago ) always get mandatory follow up at least yearly. The cancer can recur years after. Most Pediatric cancer specialists would look for signs of abuse, emotional problems etc. They would notice alot of bruises. If bone cancer or other forms of childhood cancer recur the child's platelet count becomes abnormal..This shows up as excessive bruising and epistaxis. Also oncologists routinely want to follow survivors growth patterns and make certain puberty occurs at the appropriate age. Chemotherapy and radiation therapy can effect fertility. I just can't figure out how this beautiful child could be so ignored....Why didn't someone who was a mandatory reporter notice????? Didn't this child have an MD????????

Zahra is/was an Australian citizen and all her cancer treatment had been in Australia. I'm sure any doctors who were treating her in Australia were just told she was moving to the US and would be getting any medical care she needed here. If anyone here inquired about it, the parents probably just said they went back to Australia a couple of times a year and got her check-ups there. I doubt anyone inquired, though. We've been told that CPS workers met with her once, but it's pretty clear that there was no follow-up. When dealing with a child who's missing a leg from cancer, the very least they should do is ascertain that she's getting regular check-ups from an appropriate specialist. Should have taken the parents 30 seconds to provide them with the contact info, and another couple of minutes back at the office to put in a call (even to Australia, if that's the info they were given) to confirm. Doesn't look like anything of the sort ever happened.
 
This case is so sad. Just the mention of woodchipper and a missing child in the same sentence is chilling.

So many questions???? the poster that asked about the doctors is a very good question. I not heard that ask on any news reports :banghead:

Burning mulch, gasoline pour on a car, a ransom note, a child missing all in the same afternoon.:banghead:

Plus all the reports that people knew that Zahra was being abuse and no one step up and push the issues with this family is so wrong. :furious::furious:

I am so speechless :banghead:

I can't even keep up with these threads but am so sick of parents and step parents abusing and killing children I want to scream..And I am literally sick to my stomach..
And no way can I deal with another child being disposed of in a manner that can never be proven..JMHO

Not sure if I just did this right.

I've been here what, a couple of years now?

I think I just uploaded my first photo in a post . .

Is this Zahra with Brittany? I have not seen this one.

Look at that smiles! Little angel was too good for this world.

ETA Yippee, back patting dance.

Is the leg resembling portion the removable from the rod portion? I have seen photos of Zahra wearing the two different styles. Are you saying it is the same one with some sort of removable fake leg looking sleeve?

I am not sure I'm understanding. I am trying to determine if Zahra was wearing one that resembled the human leg cosmetically or the other one I have seen her photographed in which consisted of the more utulitarian appearance of a black (I assume titanium rod).

Can they both be the same one? I wasn't aware that was possible. Sorry I must not be explaining my thought process very well here.

I don't know, but I suppose there could be some models that have a removable cosmetic cover. It would make sense, since the cosmetic part is less durable and also might be problematic for certain activities (e.g. swimming, where water could become trapped inside). I've also wondered (hopefully dr dona can help answer this) if prosthetics for children are made so as to be adjustable in length. If not, a child who first got a prosthetic at a fairly early age, as Zahra did, would need a huge number of replacements before reaching full height. And it would be extremely important to keep the length just right, as there would be serious orthopedic problems if a child was spending a lot of time on a too-short leg.
 
Keeping Dad and monster mom separate is just what they did in the Robert Manwill case.

I think they both will be charge.
