CLEVELAND, Ohio -- For the first time since police say her former boyfriend, Steve Stephens, murdered an elderly man and then posted the video on Facebook, Joy Lane spoke to FOX 8 on Tuesday.
Lane spoke about the ordeal and what her life has been like for the past 48 hours.
“The hashtags Joy Lane, Joy Lane massacre, I don’t even know who Joy Lane is anymore, or how to pick up all the pieces of my world at this moment,” Lane said. “I’ve got a lot of negative comments. Some even said he should have killed me.”

I had a feeling she would feel that way before too long. It would be almost impossible not to. Too many hateful people out there who always want to blame people, rather than support them. She was a victim, herself! And he did horrific things in her name. I hope she finds peace. HE is the ONLY one responsible. Him and him alone. May she find peace through this nightmare.

Bringing this link forward again with the video of the Erie, PA and PA state police press conference. Very good PC and they provide a lot of details about how they managed to stop SS. They were on high alert and waiting to see if he turned up there.

I noticed mention during this discussion of the couple shot at the car lot Friday night in Cleveland. Was there a discussion thread started for that case?

I haven't seen one either. You can go ahead and start one if you wish. It's ok. Put it here in "Crimes In the News". Ask mods if you have questions or need help.

I (personally) can't stand the lockdown drills. My son was in PreK3 and had to stay in the bathroom with the lights off and in silence for over 20 minutes. The teachers quietly whispered songs to them and there were 22 kids piled into the bathroom (a SMALL bathroom, not a big school stall kind). He could not stop thinking about how scary it was for weeks. And he started to hate the song the were trying to soothe them with that ended up being a creepy backdrop. They had to remain quiet, even if someone beat on the door, until someone gave a safe word. That's too much for littles to handle! In all honesty, if they could do it on the drill with some prior verbal instruction, then they could do it in life, with prior verbal instruction. I don't see a need to lock young children in closets for the sake of a drill. That's just my opinion. I also homeschool now and could not be happier that I do not have to worry about locking him in a bathroom with 20 other kids while whispering a song or deciding whether he needs to go to school and take a test or stay home and be safe from a tornado warning threat. Not fun decisions we have to make with our kids.

Potent sad post these days huh?

Some family background

[FONT=&quot]Green has two siblings — one who is deceased — and resides in the Cleveland area.

[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Green’s older brother and Stephens’ uncle Whitty G. Stephens Jr. died unexpectedly from a heart attack on January 28 2014, [/FONT]an obituary said[FONT=&quot]. He was 53-years old when he died, leaving behind Green and his other sister, Sandra Carson

[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Whitty was a reverend at a church in the Cleveland area and was the nephew of a pastor in Montgomery, Alabama,

[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Remaining active with her faith are keys that shaped Green’s upbringing and remains her passion in life. MOO I so think that his choice for Easter is huge in his stuff as it relates to issues with mom moo [/FONT][FONT=&quot]she is a fan of the christian and gospel music genre and many of its artists.

Are these rewards ever paid out? Or, are they worded to all but guarantee they will not be paid?

IIRC this reward was for the arrest of Steve Stephans. With the experience of the group offering this reward, don't you expect they knew he would likely never be taken alive or arrested? He would likely kill himself or be shot by police?

Therefore, no arrest which means no reward paid. I certainly pray I am 3000% wrong because had it not been for these alert McDonald employees, this guy might still be on the run.

This is truly an amazing question, isn't it?

Good riddance, coward

This, although I kind of hate when these oxygen thieves commit suicide. Taking the cowards way out and deciding when its over for themselves, instead of facing justice and having to front court and spend time imprisoned.

It just makes the senseless death of victims even sadder and more senseless. Just kill yourself first before killing other people ... I bet they do it to spread the misery around and to do something so bad they really have nothing to live for.

I don't really know I'm just rambling in disappointment.

Fox 8 blew me off saying the cops checked all the locations he mentioned. I'm still not buying it. Only one was an easy match (108th and Cedar), the others took some digging. Oh well. We may never know.

This is only mo and in all likelihood not worth much but for some reason, I never had a homicdey "feeling" with him

The one 10 days ago scared me much more

However, Roger Elliot video remains the creepiest one I have ever experienced (his last one)

Will never forget the first time I saw it the sunlight....................

only mo

Thank you. I did see where "Cleveland Police said in a press release that only one homicide has been confirmed. They searched locations mentioned by Stephens in his videos, but found no other victims." However, perhaps I turned up some they missed. I also sent the email to local news Fox8, the News Herald, and The Plain Dealer paper. Maybe get some news crews showing up at those houses to stir up LE some. He gave several high numbers for the dead and said he'd lost count. All this mixed with his cruelty to animals stories sounds like serial killer material.

Purely speculation, but it sounds like he has been killing for a while, lost it when he fell out with his woman, and used the last kill as revenge. I can't imagine the FBI haven't done a profile on him yet. Surely they see either a complete braggart with only the one killing or a serial killer with a string of hidden bodies behind him. What purpose would it serve to say he'd killed all those others besides making himself look "big/important" after having done none of them or to brag on the horrific truth?


I think for lack of a better word at this moment it adds to his hashtag.

Forever it will be " claimed he had killed 13 bla bal " moo

When did LE first lay eyes on him? Was he on the street already or still in the McD's parking log? Thank goodness the McD employee was alert.

My sense from the presser is it was a citizen in a car on the road although I may have misunderstood

Sorry OT but do we have a thread yet for the Fresno shooting spree? http://www.foxnews.com/us/2017/04/1...akbar-says-hates-white-people-in-custody.html

I couldn't find one in the search

GOD when does it stop? The last three weeks have been horrid at this rate we're gonna need a WS Part 2

It has gotten to the point when looking at today's posts I see some and in my head its like don't even click - there are two many going in my head already-- the last three weeks I have gotten confused (especially with the missing/water situations)

It not like "really" but in the last couple of weeks I have gone thro briefly like just stay home - it's nuts out there ...like a passing thought

sad

ETA always have lots of windows open closed this post and I clicked on San Diego link before posting this .................so when I closed this one it came up.... and the instant thought was just try to get caught up on this will i see what that one is about yes but man

and..... those of here know all to well how real copy cat is FB needs to really get on the ball with this stuff cause...............

OR do some serious educating about what to do when it happens again although personally I really cant grasp why that is not just common sense

FB is foucsing on when it was taken down , my issue is (especially from all the ones who seemed to know him ) they would have least known which LE agency to call.

I was floored this AM with the post who showed what was going on actually on FB (it was unreal to me - I dont do FB so until that really did not grasp what the video was in terms of him talking) but pls..............................................it would be identical to me passing by someone here who just shot someone in the parking lot and go bro whats up (not my lingo I learned that today) and in the last 72 hours I got to familiar with dog

mine is lying with me

right bro ! gosh.....................

Apt ending for a chicken ****

Very glad nobody else was hurt.

IN reality tho was this like he got spooked?
