FL - Sarah Lunde, 13, murdered, Ruskin, 9 April 2005

I suppose ashley poston thinks Sarah brought it on herself!

Yeah, isn't that something??? I wish they stated when this interview was. Is she saying that she doesn't believe it after it was reported that he confessed? I'll tell you what ... it wouldn't hurt to say a couple of prayers for her children. If she's naive enough to believe that "he's not like that" after he confessed, her children will need some extra help to make it to adulthood safely. Her radar is most definitely broken.

Look at picture 19 and picture 20... picture 19 is the mom and uncle, appearing to me smiling slightly and picture 20 is of two church goers appearing to be mourning .... totally different impression from #19 to #20. The difference in the emotions within the photos almost speaks louder than words.

I wasn't going to say it but those photos, especially in succession, stood out to me as well. I wonder if those particular photos in that particular order were intentional by whomever put that slideshow together.

... Onstott's most recent girlfriend, Ashley Poston told the St. Petersburg Times that she does not believe he is guilty. She said she has trusted him with her two small children and there was never a problem.

"I just don't believe he did it at all," Poston told the newspaper. "He's not like that..."

Well, since he confessed to killing her, she's 100% wrong. :loser: He did do it!

As for leaving her two small children with a registered, convicted, sex offender, hope her ex sees this article and files for custody of those two little ones. :banghead: At the least, she needs to be checked out by child protection.

Her lack of common sense is outrageous! :waitasec:

JMHO

One of the articles I read yesterday said Sarah asked to spend that night with her friend. Her friend's parents said no because Sarah and the friend had been spending a lot of time together and the believed they would see each other at church the next morning anyway. The friend's dad was really torn up about it.

I know they are and I'm glad it isn't me. That's how I ended up with a foster daughter...she was in a situation much the same as Sarah and I wouldn't leave her there. I just took her home and she's been here ever since. I'm not perfect but Thank Gawd I made the right choice this time! It just breaks my heart that Sarah had all those people (mother, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, pastors, youth leaders, etc.) and someone didn't step up to the plate! I bet they do the next time! I hope they do!

You know what the sad part is, is that Sarah probably spent so much time there that it become a necessity for the parents to say no, you need to go home....

I don't think it's fair to blame the brother. He's a 17 year old boy, and they're totally self-absorbed.

He didn't create this mess, he's dodging that jackass Onstott TOO, he's had to grow himself up by himself too. He was there alone in the trailer by design - no one misunderstood where he was - he was left alone.

He didn't cause this. He's a victim too. That there was no food in the house at midnight (maybe there actually was a lot of food, we don't know, maybe she wanted something different) wasn't his fault.

I totally agree. And consider what he's learned. Since they've apparently been left alone frequently, how would he know any better? That's what he's lived so that's how he behaves.

Considering what happened, I would rather keep the girl. In this case Her necessity to stay is more important than my necessity for her to go. At least try to make other arraingments for her if I can't take her. I'm sorry, I'm not blaming these people for not taking care of a kid that wasn't theirs but I think they all knew the circumstances of Sarah's existance. I guess I'm just hoping that if another kid comes along in any of our lives that needs a safe place, we will be more willing to provide it.

Okay, so what part doesn't she get when the Sheriff said he CONFESSED!!!

Interesting photos, thanks for the link.

I noticed the same thing but wasn't going to say anything!

 

[joanofarc]

IMO...Ashley is just the type to worship and marry a serial killer...maybe we should send her the link to prisontalk.com....she would fit in well there....

What I noticed is that Kelly May looks a lot older than Onstott....IMO

NO, it's not his fault because he has been raised to be irresponsible and he doesn't know any better, but, he did have a hand in this and is approching adulthood. I hope he does accept that he could have acted differently and learn from it. So far all I have seen from him is that he is NOT responsible! Isn't that what all these peoples problem is to begin with? No one taught them to be responsible! Life has teeth and it will bite you. jmo

shame comes to mind...jmo

If Onstott had this gal Ashley as a girlfriend, why did he go to Sarah's house to see her mother? I think he was only there to nab Sarah.

Sarah's mother better get some help now because I don't know how any parent could live with themself after putting their family last and their child murdered because of the company they kept and leaving a child home alone.

 

[richandfamous]

And, about the brother...I wasn't specifically referring to him. I was saying that she had an extended family, (uncle, aunts, grown sisters, grown step brothers, all those people at the church etc.) that all looked to be NOT homeless, they were dressed reasonably well, probably have jobs and homes...and NO ONE wanted to take responsibility for Sarah....well, you get the picture!

 

[packerdog]

RAF, I think they are all to blame. Does anyone know where her mother worked, what kind of job she had?

Not a clue...but if I had to guess, I would say she was probably on welfare. Anybody know?
