LA - ***ARREST*** Mickey Shunick, 21, Lafayette, 19 May 2012 #38

[bessie]

First time posting and I've been stalking for quite some time. Since shortly after Mickey has gone missing. I'm not aware of all the rules, but if I have heard something through the CajunNet, is it okay to post here?

<modsnip>

In most cases, no, especially if the subject is an innocent third party who has not been named in the mainstream media (MSM).

If you're unsure whether it's okay to post something, pm a mod first to check it out.

:welcome5:

Reminder here for everyone...

Where to, bessie, where to...? Oh --ummm-- I guess that's not what you meant. (I did read it that way at first, though, LOL, duh!)

 

[SteveP]

This is kinda OT, but not really. Assuming that the case against BSL, especially for Mickey's murder, is largely dependent on technology, i.e., cell phone pings, gps locators, etc, I have real concerns, primarily because I have followed at least a couple of cases where such technology seemingly went over the heads of the jurors. It seems to be something that not every person can grasp, and to be honest with you, hearing an expert explain how cell phone pings work is not the most exciting of topics of conversation to the average, non tech-savvy person. I am a firm believer in the technologies abilities, but it still scares the bejeezus out of me when I see it being brought into cases as key components. For that reason, if no other, I hope they have some very solid evidence that john doe can see and understand clearly. JMO

Welcome, carogray! Glad to have you with us.

 

[justwannahelp]

bbm: Not necessarily (different grand jury and way different circumstances), but I do think they may have additional evidence now on Lisa

maybe clothing and personal belongings that they found. lets just SAY HYPOTHETICALLY that they found Mickey's blouse in his house as well as something of Lisa's. so with that and their placing him at Whiskey Bay and with any other evidence that we the public are already in the know of, would that be enough for them?

I think LE will be able to paint a picture, tell a story, about what happened to Mickey that night, beginning with a video of the white truck and her small figure riding along on her way home. They will place him at the site where her bike was found; maybe they found bloody clothes at his home, or something belonging to Mickey. They will talk about his truck being found burned and the altering of his license in order to conceal his status when he bought a new one. And possibly much more that we have yet to hear. They have already convinced a Grand Jury, when 4 years ago, another Grand Jury declined to indict him in Lisa's case, so I believe they have a convincing case, and the GJ probably did not even hear everything.

All JMO of course.

 

[Backwoods]

I cannot prove it and I don't have a link but I think he hit Mickey and the bike with a good amount of impact that night out of anger and a need to hurt someone. I think he wanted her to be injured and to feel pain. What happened after that I do not know. I cannot help but think his crimes are more about anger and inflicting brutality on others than a sexual motive. Or it could be the two combined with the sexual motive be the lesser of the two.

I think his finger injury resulted from being in a frenzy with the knife. I really hate to say that more than y'all know. I apologize if this offends anyone but I think she could have been stabbed and strangled by this very sick man. It would explain the finger injury and the scratch marks.

The victim he was convicted of sexually assaulting had bruises, was tied up and blindfolded. The phone lines were ripped from the wall. This shows anger to me. He did not kill her so obviously that could be because he knew her as a person and not an object of his hatred.

I still believe the stab wounds were self-inflicted as crazy as it may seem. Either as I stated from the beginning, because he needed an alibi to account for the finger wound and scratches (maybe a bite mark) or because he needed to feel pain himself. Maybe he punishes himself!

Otherwise, the injuries to his person just do not seem to fit together. It seems unlikely that Mickey had the opportinity to stab him that many times front and back, scratch him and bite him. He is military trained and could easily subdue a petite woman.

I'm leaning toward strong agreement with most of what you say.

I'm not sure yet what I think about your theory on his wounds -- could definitely be right, though. I have thought that he might be a "cutter" (self).

I've also wondered whether he may have had an encounter with someone fairly close to him who immediately knew or suspected he had been up to no good -- saw (someone else's) blood on his clothes or something quite alarming that morning -- and they in anger/disappointment/jealousy/outrage or whatever attacked him. He might have restrained himself from striking back, with all he had going on at the moment, or could have restrained because of the nature of a relationship he had with such an attacker.

And I'm not ruling out yet that Mickey inflicted the wounds, either.

JMO I believe LE have found something much more damning than items of clothing, and this is why they were so quick to charge him with 1st degree murder, and also why the Grand Jury took only a couple of hours to give a True Bill. :twocents:

No way to say for sure (if by "them" you mean the grand jury), but I expect it would.

I'm just saying that less than that could very well have been enough, too.

 

[Laffy Taffy]

I'm sorry if I wasn't clear- I never meant to imply that Laffy Taffy had posted about the 2 bodies then fire crime. I don't remember who did- in fact, maybe a few people did and I think they said it was what they had heard rather than fact.

And all I know is when I mentioned the car accident rumor to someone, they recalled the other car accident with another Brandon driving and told me the accidents had gotten mixed up in the rumor mill. Now I am not certain this is the case or which rumor (if any) is correct. Just letting everyone know that just as some have heard the rumor about Claire, the car accident, and body I have also heard the rumor that some of parts of these rumors may have been mixed/merged with other past cases. I am just saying we are not sure yet what all is real, rumor, half-real, half-rumor. I just feel like Claire would have mentioned this car accident thing and that she was hanging out with him at one time before or while he was stalking her (which would be weird) or that there was some huge incident (the alleged car accident) that caused the stalking.... It also sounded like he had been really mean to her since they were little kids. Why was she in the car with him and why was her boyfriend friends with the guy who was stalking/mistreating his girlfriend? Why not tell this info about the incident or car accident to the tv interviewer? I feel like it's unlikely LE (if they know about the accident) would be okay with her talking to the media even if she left the accident out. I feel like they'd either say it's not okay to talk to the media or nothing at all, not say it's okay to talk about the stalking, but not the accident.

I'm really not trying to pick on anyone or any posts. Just adding what I have heard about these rumors. I am sorry if I offended anyone. It wasn't aimed at anyone in particular & I did not mean to offend.
(And thus, I can see the problems with posting rumors, LOL)

Ok, ok, ok.... Let's get a few things straight. I said BSL was NOT INVOLVED in the 2 murders found in the burned trailer!

Now about CH.... CH and BSL WERE friends prior to LP's disappearance! It wasn't until then that she started being threatened and afraid of him. He was always a bully and ugly to her as a child. They got past that in their later teenage years!! They hung out, etc. lp comes up missing. Months later CH and her bF move into a rent house and discover bones under wood. CH then started receiving even more threats from BSL!

The same night she went missing they were involved in an accident. Which left CH in a wheelchair for a while. - the end! And the last time I will speak of it!

 

[mamacat]

LOL...me too...and I reallllly need a vacation...I thought Christmas was coming early.

I can tell by your stressed out avatar :floorlaugh:

 

[Foxfire]

I thought bsl never served time in another country whilst in the army? Pretty sure I read that when he was first arrested. Maybe we can ask someguy when he returns he will know.

Doubtful Aussie_girl88, because he was arrested while stationed at Ft. Polk, LA which is basic training & advanced training. He would have not been assigned to a permanent duty station.

This is when many/most military personnel go AWOL..Trust me, it is Hell.. Especially in the Louisiana heat & swamps, and with an overbearing drill sergeant singing cadence on a 10 mile march after getting black plague injections with air guns;

'Ain't no use in going home, Jody's got your girl & gone... sound off, one, two, three, four...three, four'..

'Spoken by a newlywed that won the vietnam draft lottery & was stationed at Ft. Polk'...

Excellent point. Still somewhat OT (but on your topic). I have a son who is looking into forensic science programs at various universities. It was interesting to note how many programs include courses on how to testify in court using layman's terms. Perhaps the next generation will be able to explain technology, pings, etc. more effectively in the courtroom.

Yeah, I'm thinking, bessie couldn't possibly know how very badly I NEED a vacation or she couldn't have been so cruel! LOL

Have a virtual vacation in Tahiti :Banane23::Banane23::Banane23:

We know how he covers his crimes... ARSON and blame it on the dead guy! I'm not convinced he doesn't kill men too... maybe a man DID ATTACK him and got away??? (or not. he said it was a stranger...)

JMO I believe LE have found something much more damning than items of clothing, and this is why they were so quick to charge him with 1st degree murder, and also why the Grand Jury took only a couple of hours to give a True Bill. :twocents:

I think you are right. I think whatever he had of Mickey's points to her no longer being with us. LP's body has been found, the GJ couldn't make a decision the last time, so whatever he had of LP's is proabably something similar...
