LA - ***ARREST*** Mickey Shunick, 21, Lafayette, 19 May 2012 #35

[cluciano63]

As of right now, my theory is that he picked her up, bought her and the bike back to his house, with her still alive and did what he had to do. He seemed to like control over a woman, however MS wasn't the pushover he thought and got a hold to a knife, and used it. Maybe one from his own home. If that's the case then I am sure he went nuts at that point.... I think he put her somewhere along that back route to WB, then dumped the bike at WB. He probably cleaned his truck on his way to or his way back from the hospital... Baton Rouge, or some city in between WB and NO. I bet he went to a Wal-Mart or some store to get a cleaner for his seats and carpet. Cleaned it up good enough until those pics showed up on the news, then he feared DNA...

Gosh, I hope he went to Wal-mart that weekend...he would be on video for sure...hope they are checking. We've seen so many of these suspects end up at Wal-mart.

Don't want sexual deviants building houses in my community. Too easy to scope out the neighborhood and transgress.

 

[redtoedfrog]

It does not negate the fact of what both families are experiencing.

What drew me here is my experience loosing a family member and at her age i was a student at USL (showing some age) and rode my bike through those areas often.

There was a phase of the trial after the verdict and before the sentencing when family was able to get on the stand and say something. In the case of my family member, the victims families statements are picked through and had to be approved long beforehand. The convicted's family had more leniency in what they could say. This was before it was determined if the poor excuse of a human soul was getting life or death. Please note that i have never blamed his family members...The statement that stuck with me was his sister asking to spare his life because she could not bear loosing him. Really?! Your telling this to the families of his victims who just sat through graphic testimony of what he did. Although I feel for the family, I do not want to hear about giving him the chance to visit with his family.

Yes BSL is not proven guilty by the court, but, there is also a lot about this case and investigation that we will not learn about until he gets his day in court. I pray for those who have to sit through testimony and that her family has the strength to hear and see things no family should. No, I would not want to experience what his family is going through either, it cannot be easy. I hope they understand for the victems families if they get to that point in a trial, the desision is about what was done and to prevent it from happening again... Not about taking thier family member from them.

After all that, I know two people on death row in two states. One I grew up with and one who murdered a family member. I think i am the only member of my family conflicted on the sentence. Not because I feel they deserve to live, but, a "humane" death is to easy.

K..getting off the soap box now. Rant off

We are getting closer to finding Mickey! I just know it.

Now that BSL is in custody, we (well, LE) are bit by bit, drip by drip being led to her. If Mickey is now an angel or watching from the afterlife, she tried to send so many signs and red flags that this BSL was the guy. And people saw them & called in...he was arrested. Now Mickey's soul can rest better with this guy some place where he cannot do this to another woman or girl. Now Mickey can lead someone to her. Bit by bit, I think we're getting there.

The eligibility requirement for the program is a minimum of 500 acres of contiguous property of which one-half must be forested.

ok, so by sheburne there are quite a few of these signs, so there's a lot of forested land there that he may of gone into? i can't decide if he used water or land. water seems more likely right until i think about the whole floating unless weighted down thing, so then i go back to land.

His clothes would have been bloody, imo..

BSL, would have to go home/somewhere to clean up & change clothes before being seen. Maybe whiskey bay or a nearby lake...but unless he had a change of clothes it would be futile..
Prolly went home first..

RE: up all night..
Was he tweeking/meth?

Being that his clothes were stabbed and blood soaked would they have kept thm and given him a gown to wear home? My brother needed a few staples in his head and his shirt was very bloody. They threw it away.

 

[justwannahelp]

I haven't read every post, but I was wondering if there had been any mention of his blood being found on the pillars or concrete at WB?

I think carrying a bike and bleeding from stab wounds, he might have dripped some there.

good point, but nothing was found that we know of. they found the bike on the 26th, right? i think it rained between teh 19th and 26th, so maybe the blood was washed away?

right, they usually give you a bag to put your personal belongings in. so he probably burned the bag or threw it in a dumpster in NOLA somewhere. i doubt he took it back to his house

 

[aviatrix]

he must have gone in with his bloody clothes, right? they probably gave him a gown to put on and a bag to put his clothes in, which works out in his favor. i'm sure he just set that bag of clothes on fire without having to ever bring them in his house.

if he was stabbed in the neck, chest, back, and finger, i don't think he went home before going to the hospital. he must have been hurtin' and bleeding a lot.

all this time, i thought for sure it was quick and that he killed her somewhere off Coliseum. but now with this whole 3pm thing, I'm wondering if she may have fought him closer to 3pm. i don't know. i'm not familiar with stab wounds. ACI, can you find out when he got to that hospital? lease:

as for WB, chickenfried seemed to think that it would have been difficult to walk with a body to the cement pillar thing holding up I-10. so maybe he planned on putting the bike there as well as her, but after tossing out the bike from the pillar, he realized that it would be too hard to toss her out into the current part especially while suffering from all of his injuries, so he changed his mind and thought he'd put her somewhere else that was easier to maneuver??

i'm not convinced on any of my theories. just thinking out loud here

If he went to the hospital ER with bloody clothes on they MOST LIKELY would have burned his clothes and given him scrubs to wear home. Just depends on the ER. I have been to the ER too many times to count and unfortunately know this particular procedure. Because blood is a bio-hazard nobody wants to touch bloody clothes. In the ER exam rooms they have a special hamper for bio-hazards and bloody clothes would be removed, put in there, and burned in the hospital bio-hazard burner. Now, it is done different ways at different hospitals, but that is one possibility. You would have to ask someone who specifically worked at that hospital their procedure. The procedure I have described is, however, a common one.

 

[StacyMarie83]

I haven't read a post yet. Just saw the news about the stab wound...WOW...almost speechless. I HOPE that was from MS, stupid, p.o.s filth :-(

 

[ktgirl]

I have to add...ref: BSL possibly inflicting some of those wounds on himself.
I hope Mickey was the person responsible for giving him every single one of those wounds. Every.single.one.
And I hope the wounds still ache & bother him as a constant reminder of how powerful that platinum haired 5'1" 115 lb girl was.

I don't think I've ever followed a case where a woman's murderer was hurt so badly by her that he went to the hopsital for medical attention from stab wounds, scrapes/cuts, hurt finger, etc. from the victim. She fought like nobody's business. Go ahead, Mickey!

 

[Laffy Taffy]

If you haven't already, please please call LE and let them know. It's quite possible they already have the info, but in case they don't know that his birth family is in the vicinity of where the truck was found, it could be really helpful. Welcome to Web Sleuths!

Hey! They are aware of his family connections there already. His sisters name was mentioned prior to today.

i am sorry that you went through the tragedy of losing a loved one in such a way. thank you for the insight you shared from your experience

her friends all said that for her size, she was very STRONG! she was fit from cycling and horseback riding.

 

[heidisams]

There is just so much water everywhere down here and all along his route that night. The only thing is that if Mickey caused these injuries and he's hurting, he was (IMO) less likely to place her far from the roadway. Just thinking that if he's worried about himself, he would want to get rid of her quickly and get himself some help.
I think she's either near his home (where he could keep an eye on her) or between Laffy and Whiskey Bay. May be Mickey was left down an I-10 exit where BSL has some knowledge/familiarity. Wonder if his family has any land, or ever had a camp in that area.

Once he was injured, I think he went to New Orleans to put distance between him and the crime so he could be treated without causing any undue attention. He couldn't go to a Laffy ER because the connection would have been too easy (injured RSO and missing girl). In NO, a random stabbing wouldn't be uncommon or thought much of as unusual (visitor/tourist getting stabbed and robbed). More common, less interest by LE.

ITA with post... And to add, moo... I am now really leaning towards her being found in the water, due to what we now know about him possibly receiving wounds during the attack. There's more than a good chance his blood/DNA was on her, or on anything he may have possibly put her in, etc... He would probably think water would be his best bet to get rid of his blood and DNA. Putting myself in his shoes that's what I would think my only option was, no way would I leave her in the woods, or buried somewhere if my blood was sure to be found on the victim. (I really hate typing those words and thinking of her in that condition!!!)

I understand what you are saying and where you are comming from. To be honest if it were one of my children that did something like this I am not even sure I could face, let alone speak, to that child again. I know I probably would. I recall watching a documentary with the father and a SK. I am not sure I could do what that father did.

I do stand by my statement that it does not negate what both families are going through.

One family will be remembered for the loss of their daughter. The other family as well must face public scrutiny with respect to what their son has done. No winners here.

I agree. I am with you I have been thinking about the levee rd that connects I10 and Hwy 190 (WB to Krotz Springs). He could have gone home and went to WB this way and dump her somewhere along the way before WB, and then dumped the bike at WB and went on to New Orleans. Me and a friend plan on checking this road this weekend.

makes sense. i guess the bag for clothes only applies when you go in with clean clothes for surgery or to give birth

well then, that biohazard so burn the clothes thing worked out in his favor. the hospital got rid of evidence FOR him

 

[ATasteOfHoney]

BSL stated he was robbed at 3pm, he went to the er later(time unk), spoke to JP police at 11pm per msm

link up thread on KateB, sorry I'm on a very old slowwww pc tonight

BSL is making up such ridiculous stories---who would pick him at 220 lbs to rob at a gas station at 3pm in the afternoon? There are so many more likely victims to rob and at a much more opportune time, like night time.
BSL isn't very bright, and of course, is a psycho.

 

[StacyMarie83]

I think that in hindsight things would of been handled differently but it is important to note that Mickey had not even been reported missing at this point in time. I believe she was not reported IIRC till 6:30 so LE would of had no reason to check his vehicle/clothes in relation to her.

exactly why he didn't burn the truck until the pictures were released (as far as we know). I think the police who made the report and told LPD about it, probably had a gut feeling about BSL. You usually remember someones face/name for a reason IMO Just didn't have anything to go on that night.

Def. getting closer to finding her!

Can medical records be released to LE!? Such as the doctor comments, mood, vital signs, other notes, etc?!
