Not a miracle but a good thing. Also kindness to strangers. A woman is approached by a filthy, unkempt girl who tells a wild story that she was kidnapped and her parents killed. The woman might easily have thought the girl was nuts or on drugs, but instead she listened.

Alleged perp appears to be white, male, American so I guess it's not a real crime.

He's been caught.

Such hate. First the cynical thoughts that people would turn away a filthy girl asking for help. In an area where everyone probably knew her by name.

If you told me the age and only the age of the suspect, this defective is the image that would have popped into my head.

Maybe we should send him to Mexico to offset one of the criminals YOU don't care about.

 

[crandc]

Such deliberate ignorance. A sad fact is people do turn away from those they see as repellent. I'm glad that woman did not.

NY Times recently ran a piece by a young man who was paralyzed in an accident. He is clean, neatly dressed and polite, but said when he now approaches strangers, just to ask directions, they turn away.

I know he's been caught but legally until convicted is "alleged".

I concede. You were so right. Nobody cared about a white guy killing a little girl and when the world found it that it was a couple of black guys they went crazy.

I found this article from someone you should respect. Lemme sum it up if you decline reading it.....OK, it wasn't a hate crime but TRUMP!!!!!!

Of course they don't mention the 11 year old girl killed in Vegas a few months ago.

The woman that found the little girl did not know her.

 

[Five Second Violation]

The woman that found the little girl did not know her.

Her face was all over the news for months in Wisconsin. Pretty sure everyone recognized her right away.

 

[bodyman5000 and 1]

The woman that found the little girl did not know her.

Anyone who's first thought is that there is more than a remote chance that a grown woman would turn her back on a young girl asking for help is just a cynical person.

I wish that exact scenario would happen to me. Having thought of it a bit, not knowing that you don't know where the guy is.....

Hand the girl your phone and have her call 911. Have her get in your car and stay low while we drive to the nearest police station while she talks with the operator.

If this psycho was right behind her he could get in your house and kill everyone before the cops got there.

I'd have the car running before I opened the garage door. If he's standing there he has to shoot me before I run him over.

I'd have her tell 911 my name and my plate number so there is no confusion.

Luckily for her, she was in a rural area. Had she been in Sacramento she'd have died of old age before anyone lifted a finger to help her.

Such a hate-filled post exposing your racist/sexist view of America and an unfair slur on the average American.

Anyone I know would have immediately helped the "dirty, very thin 13 year old girl", and only someone who lives in a shithole Sanctuary city would consider that she might be insane or on drugs (as if that's an excuse to not render aid to a 13 year old girl).

As for justice I can assure you the average white male American supports the death penalty for excrement like this murderer.

Sadly, he will likely be allowed to kill again because:

Capital punishment in Wisconsin was abolished in 1853. Wisconsin was one of the earliest United States states to abolish the death penalty, and is the only state that has performed only one execution in its history.

Unfortunately, Dems have taken the solution off the table in many jurisdictions, while Dem governors refuse to comply in others.

Particularly in Wisconsin it seems.

In 2006, an advisory referendum showed 56 % of the Wisconsin voters in favor of reinstating capital punishment. The state legislature did not adopt any statute to apply the popular vote.

 

[MARIS61]

No, at least human beings don't.

If people you know would actually do that, I have to assume you would also since you know them well enough to make the statement.

If you don't hang with people like that, then you're just making shit up.

Either way, it's telling of your character, and the evil bubble of hate and self-pity that you are surrounded by in your (chosen?) community.

Neighbor who came to Jayme Closs' aid: 'We were armed and ready' for suspect to come looking

By Cristina Corbin, Andrew Keiper | Fox News

Sheriff: Suspect was not at home when Jayme Closs escaped captivity, gun recovered consistent with crime scene

GORDON, Wisconsin – When Jayme Closs showed up at their doorstep, the Kasinskas family sprung into action, taking two steps before most anything else. They called 911. And they grabbed their firearms, in case the kidnapped teen's abductor was in pursuit.

Kristin Kasiskas told Fox News that she and her husband immediately recognized the 13-year-old Wisconsin girl whose October kidnapping captivated the nation when a neighbor, Jeanne Nutter, frantically knocked on their door at 4 p.m. on Thursday.

We were armed and ready in case this person showed up.

— Kristin Kasinskas
“When our neighbor Jeanne came in with Jayme, she said: ‘Get a gun. We don’t know if he’s after us,’” Kasinskas said. “So we were armed and ready in case this person showed up.”

This is the road that Jayme Closs was found on. (Cristina Corbin/Fox News)

Closs escaped 88 days of captivity -- authorities have identified her suspected captor as 21-year-old Jake Thomas Patterson -- after he allegedly murdered her parents and kidnapped her. Closs gave neighbors and police a description of a car that Patterson was said to be driving, and police captured the suspect quickly. Authorities suspect he was driving around, trying to find the escaped teen.

Patterson is charged with two counts of first-degree intentional homicide and one count of kidnapping. He’s being held in Barron County Jail. Police haven’t identified a motive for his alleged crimes, and said he had no social media contact with Jayme or her family.

Kasinskas said that three officers initially arrived at her home. They took Closs to safety and told Kristin and her kids to get away from any windows in case the suspected abductor came to their home.

“My kids and I – we went downstairs,” she said. “My husband was asked to stand guard at one of the doors on the upper floor. [Patterson] was then arrested not that far away from our house.”

I didn't know he was my neighbor until Jayme said 'Jake took me.'

— Kristin Kasinskas

Kasinskas, who teaches middle and high school science, said Patterson had been a student when he was 12 or 13 years old. She said he was a shy, bright student in middle school who kept a small circle of friends.

“He didn’t say a whole lot and never really stood out a whole lot to me because he wasn’t super engaging,” Kasinskas said. “Since then, I didn’t keep up with him. I didn’t even know he lived on this street. … I didn’t know he was my neighbor until Jayme said, ‘Jake took me.’”

Excuse me but the woman that found the child said she didn't know who she was but I believe she said she thought the child might have been the missing girl.
The point is, the woman was in the neighborhood but did not know the little girl because they lived in the same neighborhood.
Did she recognize her because of newspaper photos? No idea, but that wasn't the point I was making.

 

[bodyman5000 and 1]

Glad she is a safe. What a terrible fucking thing to have gone through. I can't even imagine.

It isn't good but better than the God knows how many that get killed.

The psycho had to kill her parents for some reason. I wish the movie Minority Report came true even with the flaw in the system.

Just show up and say...DON'T DO IT.

San Diego station 'stands' by claim CNN turned down reporter over differing wall narrative

By Paulina Dedaj, Brian Flood | Fox News

A San Diego television station is standing by its contention that CNN declined to use one of its reporters for a border-wall story because it didn’t fit with the network’s narrative.

KUSI accused CNN this week of asking for a local perspective on the effectiveness of the border wall, then pulling back when the station offered reporter Dan Plante, who has previously reported that the wall is in fact effective.

KUSI digital content manager Mike McKinnon III wrote on the network’s website, “We believe CNN declined a report from KUSI because we informed them that most Border Patrol agents we have spoken to told us the barrier does in fact work.”

SAN DIEGO STATION CLAIMS CNN ASKED FOR LOCAL BORDER WALL PERSPECTIVE, BUT BACKED OFF WHEN RESPONSE FAVORED TRUMP

Ha! I sort of enjoy a few minutes of the Lemon now and then. Just to see a real piece of work in action.
It is kind of amazing to see the once premier news organize devolve into a some sort of scab forum.
Lemon and Maddow over on MSNBC are a real curious pair. Kind a weird that they for this short moment in time, represent an example of those given special privilege protection in the media by law. In all fairness, you probably need to add that other loud mouth at CNN

Sort of sad momentary joke I think.

Yeah, when they are on the street corner begging for money to feed their habits.

This girl knocked on a door.
I dont know anyone personally or know OF anyone who would shut the door on someone like this. Boy, girl, black, white, gay, straight.

Your post is completly out of left field and is obviously from a very jaded viewpoint.

The article didnt hint of anything about white man misdemeaner crime or anything. Race wasnt a factor or even really mentioned.

How the hell you are connecting these dots is quite puzzling.
