Sheri Coleman, sons Garett and Gavin murdered 5-5-09, Columbia, IL. Pt1

[fran]

Bummed? Why? You should be DELIGHTED as it will give even MORE opportunity for you ladies and gents to, let's say "pontificate and post rampantly speculating into the wee morning hours, up nights, days, weeks .. to run through all sorts of scenarios!" .... me thinking hilariously of Wrinkles (but in a nice way) posting her long posts with all the twists and turns ...

You guys .. this opens up a whole new world of opportunity! LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

OK .. what's the theory now since it's not a "open and closed" case?

.... waiting :woohoo::crazy:

Sorry analytical. I understand your effort, but me thinks the TOD is going to trump any alternate scenarios.

IF the victims were killed between 3 a.m. to 5 a.m. as has been stated on other forums and as our media guest alluded to this a.m., referencing the autopsy results regarding 'time,'...........................:bang:

well..................back to square one!

Just sayin'

[who knew?]

Why have we not seen pictures of the family members - CC's parents...........if his dad is a preacher, you'd think his picture would be all over the place. Anyone know these people? Would they actually cover up a crime for their son? Is their church a commune, cult, or something similar? I've never heard of it. I read back in the thread somewhere that someone called CC's dad a control freak. Is CC like his dad? What about his mom and brothers? Are they all into the cult, too?
Don't mean to offend anyone, just have been lurking a long time (months) and believe you all have good discussion and a good record for solving crime. I've thought from the beginning cc is guilty - but don't have the nose for clues like you all do!

Hello ArtieG,

You wrote something a while ago:

#797:
>>The police chief even cried at the vigil, asking that everyone help find the killer. I think that he is crying because he doesn't want to turn CC in but knows that all of the evidence points to him or his brother.<<

The word "brother" keeps echoing in my head since you wrote this. Why would anyone think that? We know about the brother in the deer strangling film, but was brother regularly hanging out at the Coleman house in your neighborhood? Is there something about brother that we haven't learned?

W

Maybe not biological brother - but a spiritual brother???? Hmmm - that makes sense...

Plenty of room for all the civil discourse you all can dish up.

No room for any sort of personal attacks (not directed at you but this was a good place to put it).

I go for weeks without having to warn anyone to keep the discussion off of each other. I've done it 3 times now in this thread. So it needs to stop now.

Hey, feel free to bounce off my posts anytime! lol. :crazy:

Maybe we could just have someone tell us what the examiner says is the time of death? Maybe that would help us?

neighbor did come on for a few minutes later I will try to find it.

Unless you're looking for it for your benefit, don't look it up for me. I'm about to shut it down but thanks anyway ... it's really not important who posted it .. we're both talking about the same matter.

I have just read through the thread on the Indiana murders I posted earlier, and really don't see anything on a closer look that would tie to this case.

By now shouldn't that be known but it has not been mentioned anywhere but in comment sections.

Hi Kristins!

I'm honestly praying that there is someone out there that knows more than just rumors. I would beg them to go to LE too! IF what they know in any way can assist LE in solving this crime, they definitely need to come forward. That's the least they can do for these poor unfortunate victims.

IF there was any sort of abuse, threats or whatever going on, I just have to feel someone knows something. IF you do, please, please, call LE. No matter how insignificant it may seem to you.

Murder is like a BIG puzzle. You only get the answer, when all the pieces are fitted together. EVERY piece, IMO. Every piece.

JMHO

good post, Fran!

You would think. I wonder about this. They sure are keeping things quiet. I just wonder what it is they need they don't have.

Lots of speculation about the house.
We have heard that JMM owed the house and they lived there rent free.
We have also heard she took her name off the deed.
No one has come up with the real story, yet.
IMO

ETA: An.....can't remember how to spell it. You know who you are. LOL
Posted a link to JMM website that stated the house belonged to the minstry, and her Chief of Security lived there free.
He may not be Chief of Security ?????

Hi all - been reading your posts for a few days and finally decided to register. I just wanted to clear up something about the house (which may or may not be relevant). The Coleman's purchased their home in Columbia in 2005. Before that they lived in Affton, MO (it is reported that this is the housed owned by JMM where her security chief lived rent free). It is also rumored that JMM hired off-duty police officers to guard this particular house.

Also, someone posted a pic off of SC's (or a friend of hers) MySpace page and asked what the word was in the lower right corner. I believe it is TOPSINLEX. They have a website that has event photos from Lexington, KY. I apologize to the poster but so many pages and I couldn't find it again.

 

[PrayersForMaura]

the real question is ... who would murder two young boys? What would the reasoning be?

"
LARGO, Fla. — Police are investigating a romantic relationship between a woman in Florida and Christopher Coleman, whose wife and two children were slain last week at their home in Columbia, Ill.

Detectives have acknowledged traveling to Florida last week. They were there to interview a woman described as Coleman's girlfriend, a law enforcement source close to the case said Tuesday.

A second police source confirmed the relationship. They did not say whether they think it played any role in the murders."

Thanks! And Welcome to Websleuths! There have also been rumors that the police have searched the Affton home. Do you know if this is true, and if the house is currently being lived in by someone (and if so, who?)

Thanks again.

A cheating coward who wanted to start a new life ?

And this woman doesn't sound like TL...who's military.

The Florida woman's online profile on Classmates.com says she attended college in Tampa. Public records say she worked in a bar and as a hostess for a gentlemen's club in Tampa.

Thanks! I am reading it now.

Sorry for posting the same thing.

I agree with what one commenter on that article said, maybe things are starting to really come out!
