Here’s another thought, and I’m not saying this is the case here, but sometimes, some who have spent extended time in prison, have a hard time adjusting to the outside (obviously), and actually sometimes, consciously or subconsciously, want to go back because they feel like that’s where they belong, the structure, etc. They can’t make it on the outside. Also, sometimes, they may again consciously or subconsciously, attempt to go back, feel that they belong there, to protect themselves (and/or others) from themselves. I’ve heard some some ex-cons talking about this sort of thing. Just thinking about some thoughts wrt to intentional or unintentional stupidity, but perhaps this latest act is strictly a matter of poor impulse control and opportunistic predation, with no subconscious or conscious intent to get caught. Most likely the latter, but who knows. He refers to his solitude a lot. He probably feels like he can relate to others in prison.



Eta: He may have learned to weld in prison.

Yes. This is why I’m posting about certain checkins, keep asking if he’s a pyro, and wondering about African American victims, etc.

November 21, 2016 was date of fire. I’m getting a very bad vibe from this...IMO

Oh my. Must restrain myself.

Not trying to share in this thread in too cryptic of a manner, rather, REALLY trying to not mess anything up :)

Kkdj, I could only see that on TikTok. Is it a Day Of The Dead girl?

Also on his knuckle I think it may be the EWMN tat.
The Insane And Frightening Meanings Of Prison Tattoos - Awesome Inventions


“‘EWMN' stands for 'evil, wicked, mean, nasty'. So, if you see someone brandishing this tattoo, you might want to be careful!”



Eta: Either that or:

“To establish one general form that will stand conceptually for all bodies, an abstract body, similar to a ‘stick figure’ image is proposed: a ‘man without qualities’. Each limb is reduced to its longitudinal axis - an imaginary straight line of unchanging length. A limb, in EWMN, is considered to be any part of the body, which lies between two adjacent joints or a joint and a free extremity.” / source

*He’s into art, but if I had to pick, I’d go with option #1.o_O

Yep. Very trained to respond to him.
What's the point of him saying kitty cat?
The point is (imo) to let others know he has trained this dog with voice commands. Very scary with a guy with this mentality.
Makes one wonder what occurred to cause his dog to bite the little girl. Does his dog understand "attack"? Does he understand "kill"?
What all words does his dog respond to?
(I HATE this thread. Just sayin. HATE IT.)

(Eta: No offense to you fine folks, of course. Just talking about kids and dogs...)

Also making note as to what bikes, motorcycles, off-road vehicles, etc. he may have presently and previously. We know he’s into motorcycles, and old trucks.

The EWMN is is kind of your basic prison tattoo @margarita25.


Noted he doesn't have any on his face or neck though.

<modsnip> Just wondering. It's kind of a thing at least geographically here. Prison ink it's quite important what you choose to put on your hands.

I bet he learned how to tattoo in prison?

Also, did they ever have any pits, as in pit bulls and parolees, in his unit? Just wondering.

I think it makes him feel tough or whatever having pits, jmo.
I envision a lot of rough housing, to put it mildly.

going through his Facebook photos to which someone posted a link yesterday, they adopt one pb dog that is around their house when they move in- he asks family/friends for some extra money to do this. He does have several litters of puppies as well- different years so different litters and I imagine (?) that he might sell the puppies- the litters are a lot - 8, 10, 11 (?) dogs, so they are not kept.

He was in prison in Pennington County, SD?

Does he have any other connections to there, know people there, ever go back to that area for visits?

<modsnip - direct reference to another case>

I want to know what all of his tattoos are.
I see near his shoulder a masked and hatted crazy eyed guy.
Looks like an ear on a man's face and shoulder on another tat below the bandit?
I would like to see all of them. I'll bet LE takes pics of all of them. Are they trophy pics/meanings?

I know that he does art (his facebook has a picture with a skull and roses that he shows his followers), but some one else has to do his tattoos right? so some tattoo artist is familiar with what he has had done and when? i did see a tattoo shop near his home but since he just moved in (January?), not sure it would be one he might have patronized.

He was getting into a lot of legal trouble in IN in 2000. I think he went to SD to get away from that, and picked SD because there are blue-collar jobs that he could get with a high school diploma. But, his personality went with him and he got into a lot of legal trouble in SD too.

That's my hunch on why he went to SD - just guessing. Maybe he knew someone there, I don't know.

This case also reminds me of Gabbie Doolan. Her assault was absolutely brutal. She didn’t survive. Also remembering other victims, Jessica, Bella, Jenise, Hailey O...the list goes on.

I hope this little girl can go home soon.
I was just thinking that same thing- that case haunts me still
 
  • #778
Might be why he sometimes goes by "blue."
He has a lot going on with trying to trick people imo.
Very strange guy.
“Outlaw Blue”...”Blue Outlaw”...there’s no tellin combinations and profile handles but I’d be willing to bet there are handles out there we haven’t found. I bet he’s got nasty videos and pics of himself, barf.

Thanks. I know more charges could be added at any time. I did see a post many pages back that essentially said that the little girl may have been bitten unexpectedly by one of his pits and forced into the house after that. He obviously has an explosive temper and has been arrested for violence more than once (though no arrests for sexual assault) and had restraining orders against him. It seems he is obsessed with his dogs and may have killed someone in fear of losing them/having them put down. He may have been trying to talk her into a phony story regarding the bite- threatening her to lie and it may have not been going the way he wanted. If sexual assault charges are filed, then I will believe the child was kidnapped for that purpose.

we do not know how this incident started. one news release said the girl "went missing from Main St," but then supposedly JC "forced her into the basement of his home."

Lafayette man arrested after missing girl rescued from his home | wthr.com

we do not know if he first saw her some where else- if he invited her in, if she went near his house for some other reason... we really only have information that she was hidden in his house, attacked and injured there. we do not even know if he was somewhat "known" to the victim and not considered dangerous prior to this. IMHO.
