GUILTY GA - Sunday Blombergh, 28, Tifton, 22 April 2010 - #2

[Lavanda Dolce]

Lavanda, I am curious. And this is an honest question...how do you know more about the evidence regarding this case than SC, since she says she is family, and it's my understanding that you are not? Do you have some higher level access to GBI intelligence because of your organization's work?

Any information that we have during the course of a missing person's investigation is never divulged. Remember, we work directly with law enforcement and families of missing loved ones so invariably we do have information that is not always publicly released, especially in cases that end up foul play. You are absolutely correct in "innocent until proven guilty" and my comment above was in reference to what was publicly documented in the court hearing by Tomlinson regarding what transpired on the day that Sunday went missing. I should have notated that. Thanks for the heads up, I'll edit the post to reflect such.

 

[Lavanda Dolce]

It does not let me edit. I believe because it was posted for too long? For clarification, here is better clarification on what I posted above:
Regardless of any battles that Sunday fought...or any drug involvement they all could have been in...or not....her death was heinous. It was not due to a drug overdose. According to the testimony of Tomlinson, her death was due to a multitude of methods which makes it so heinous. From being shot and when that didnt work...being strangled and when that didn't work...finally stabbed. The planning of what transpired, according to GBI reports in the media, is what made it premeditated (without the knowledge, obviously, of Sunday as to what was about to happen to her.) So any drugs, highs, or whatever may have been done by any of them....has nothing to do with the final act committed because it all could have been stopped and brought to a halt if those who were involved would have warned Sunday and the police and/or would have come to their senses and realized that killing another human being (other than self defense) is not how problems are solved. To which degree each took part, to what evidence will be presented, is what will be learned at the trials. It was already stated by the GBI that this was a planned murder and those involved were charged with such. As for the evidence as to what brought them to that decision will not be released until trial. And yes...in our system...one is innocent until proven guilty. Hence is my earlier post that real discussions really shouldn't transpire until the trials begin.

Please keep the family in your prayers...this is going to be tremendously hard on them. I also know those that are related and love the defendants will need prayers, as well and they'll have mine, too. Lets not forget that Izzy loved everyone involved and she is the one who I believe is hurting the most and she is only a child. If only the hands of time could turn back

It seems to me if it were so premeditated that a few shots of cocaine would have been easier to carry out and left no one looking for a missing person. It seems more spontaneous than premeditated. Also, the police were watching SB for over a month before she went "missing". Why did the police have unlimited access to the residence and have to continue to go back even after SB's family had been there week after week? The SB family removed things they didn't want the police to see. Who do you think they stayed with while they were in Tifton. After one search, Ruby had to call them back because they left their things there. Good Ole Boys strikes again. How many times have you heard the motive released before the accused had even been questioned? Please, try to see things from a different prospective. Herman did not like Ruby. I have letters to that effect. Why does anybody believe he would kill for her. He emptied all her bank accounts and had her car repossessed while she was in the hospital.

Unless you witnessed such, what you're stating is hearsay by those who are about to go on trial and the public will need to wait until the trial to have full answers. As for the "good ole boys", I don't know and cannot form any opinion on the Tifton, PD. I can, however, say that the GBI is among the most professional and detailed group of investigators in the US that I've seen. I also believe that RE would not have been charged the same as HE had it not been for solid evidence that they have and will present at trial.

 

[Lavanda Dolce]

Due to overwhelming work, and the fact that the trial has not even begun...I am going to cease posting on this thread. I don't see anything that I can bring has value other than to continually to ask for those to pray for the family of Sunday, the families of those who also will be going through a lot that are related to the defendants...and most importantly, for Isabella.

[/QUOTE] Yes, Tomlinson failed the polygraph at the onset when questioned if he knew anything about the whereabouts of Sunday Blombergh. He stated "NO"...hence is why when he failed the polygraph. The investigation continued and I believe the man finally broke from the guilt of helping his friend dispose of Sunday and from the pressures the GBI were placing as they were "on to him in knowing more than he told" (which they were absolutely correct.) I'm sure he was told that he would be charged but perhaps a lesser sentence if he "tells all"...so he did and brought them to Sunday's body for the proof they need.[/QUOTE]

And so I guess Tomlinson WAS telling the truth and not lying to cover himself. You know I know Herman had closer friends he could have trusted better with this secret if that were the case...and Tomlinson couldnt possibly lied and told a little truth as to where the body was but shift the blame...This all could be true...but that doesnt make RE or TC guilty. It makes them guilty of being tired of the stuff that was going on with Izzy around....I want to re-iterate, I am SO VERY sorry for Izzy. She has lost so much. I dont want to imply that anything Sunday did was worth what happened to her. She was a beautiful girl who was a ray of happiness. But some of you seem to think that RE and TC were schemeing this for months. No. An off hand comment was made ( way OFF) several months ago...... Never would either one of them expected this to have happened.

SC would you share in so many words what that off-handed comment was?

So what you are saying is that a witness to that comment made by Ruby and Theo came forward and informed LE? Or are you referring to the "Ruby-emails" that Herman posted about on his FB Page? That would be pretty weak evidence IMO, surely not enough to arrest the two of them.

Think about it a moment. When you speak of the "RE-Emails" that HE posted on FB....why would you consider that "weak evidence" if DUE to his comments a computer search was conducted and all of what he was insinuating poured forth? Now wouldnt that be compelling evidence? It is in a court of law.

 

[Knox]

Lavanda I find your comment above rude and condescending in tone, please skip my posts.

SC my question to you still stands if you feel it appropriate to answer.

My apologies. It certainly was not meant to come across that way. Not at all. Sometimes I post quick short messages and it may come across as not intended. Again, my apologies.

According to the indictments, grand jury members found sufficient evidence to charge Ruby Anne Evans with conspiracy to commit murder “for that the said accused, on or about the 26th day of March, 2010, did then and there, unlawfully, conspire with Herman Roy Evans and Theo Conoly to murder Sunday Elizabeth Blombergh and, in order to effect the object of the conspiracy, commit an overt act in furtherance of the conspiracy by obtaining illegal drugs with which to overdose and kill Sunday Elizabeth Blombergh, contrary to the laws of said state, the good order, peace and dignity thereof.”

This is the off handed comment in which I was referring to .....It seems as if This were the conspiracy why did Herman do all that other stuff to her?

 

[southernchick]

I dont live in their area so I get most of my info on the phone or thru visits....I know people pretty up stories and I'd be a fool to believe everything I heard....so I look at everything I can to try and figure this out....This isnt the jist that I had from the beginning....this story has taken a drastic turn for the worst and it doesnt fit with what was really happening. I suppose that all the families dont want to look bad...I personally dont care, yall dont know me and I'm not trying to impress you...I'm trying to figure why Herman or Tomlinson killed Sunday. I dont feel it WAS for custody of IZZY. maybe I'm wrong and I'll apologize if I am....... Ruby drove to TX to visit.....why would you think driving to Tally would be harder? It was only an hour and a half away.
I don't know about the e-mails but I can say Ruby wasnt on-line that much....she really didnt have the time....she was running the shop plus running Sunday places and helping with Izzy....I really think that It was a SEXUAL thing just convient Ruby was a b****..Suday was a very beautiful girl...I find it hard to believe no one think this was sexual.

 

[southernchick]

did anyone get a screen shot of his FB page? I've heard about this but haven't seen it. what did he say pertaining to these e-mails? there were alot of things he said....that prove not to be true... I dont doubt HE had alot to do with this.....But in Tomlinsons confession or statement I didn't hear Rubys name mentioned nor Theos. It seems he said HE told him this and if Ruby were involved it seems he would have said something about her, same goes for Theo. but he ddidn't, wonder why.....maybe they didn't know till after the fact? whats the possibility of this?

I remember Tarabull got screen shots of alot of it....I saw his FB page and I believe he didn't allude to the emails until right before he got arrested. What he said exactly I don't remember anymore..something like he thought he still has some emails proving that RE wanted Sunday dead...or something to that effect...

 

[Knox]

That is correct bmore, HE said RE wanted Sunday dead and he had the emails to prove it. I c&p most of his fb posts into a word doc, but deleted it a while back. I sent a copy to Tarabull, maybe she still has it.

 

[southernchick]

I would appreciate a copy if you dont mind. as far as e-mails go Ruby hardly emailed anyone. We talked on the phone cause it was easier for her. She delivered flowers all over the area and was picking up Izzy and dropping Sunday off and whatnot.but like Bmore says, more than one person had access to her shop computer and Herman had a laptop. I hope they are able to PROVE who sent them and when. Most of the time she was up and out by 5:00am and not back home till 7:00pm.....and was running a business.
And.....from what I HEAR Herman is still denying any involvement.

I have a question that demands an answer. Tomlinson said in his hearing that Sunday was dressed in shorts. She has NEVER worn shorts. So ask someone in her family if they have ever seen her in shorts.

Here is a photo on her website wearing denim shorts.

At the beach? Anywhere else?

 

[seed-to-a-tree]

Yes, Sunday wore shorts. As a matter of fact I just watched a video of her and Theo @ universal studios and she was in shorts.
