Fucking Idiots in the World - 50 Cent short Two Bits on Brains

I can't help but add my 2 cents to the article about 50 Cent being picked up driving in New York with a Lambourghini, with no registration or insurance. He even looks stupid.

What is up with people in the world, that make these idiots rich, when all they are are dipshits?

I now believe that there is a strong correlation of moronic activity to stardom....the more famous you are, the more apt you are to be stupid...I don't need to go through the list, but Tom Cruise, Paris Hilton, Mel Gibson, all fit the bill.

Life goes on for the smart ones in the world...at least the stars' stupidity keeps us entertained...

John Mark Karr - Was it Time to leave Thailand?

The obsession that Karr had with JonBenet has resulted in a "confession" (for the lack of a better word, since we really don't know the circumstances to which it was made...), which has him on a plane back to the US to face scrutiny and questioning from the Colorado DA office. It's funny when you look at what we know so far. Karr was in contact with Tracey (the professor) for 4 years before Tracey turned whatever information over to the authorities. Did it take 4 years for something to slip from Karr in his correspondence? I don't think so.

There is lots to learn with the facts in the case, least of which is the timing of the arrest. It seems to me that Karr made it too easy for himself to get caught. Did he want to be caught? Is there a reason why he confessed so he could get out of Thailand?

I think that there is another motive for Karr's strange behaviour with this confession, and that Thai officials should be looking where he was for any unsolved crimes against children. In a country where child exploitation is rampant, there is probably skeletons in Karr's closet from his stint in Thailand, which is why he needs to get out of there. It may be that this JonBenet confession is the red herring that Karr needed to get out of the country.

Again, I can't wait to see the evidence that links Karr...as others have said in the blog world, all you have to do is read the Tracey book, and you can figure out the M.O. pretty easy. It doesn't take a rocket scientist nor a grade school teacher wannabe to figure out facts on the case without having been there.

Before Karr gets into the mess in the US with respect to the case, I hope that Thai officials are doing "due diligence", to ensure that he hasn't left anything unsolved there...his ticket home on a trumped up confession is just the thing you can use to escape prosecution in a country where the punishment would fit the crimes.

Karr may be out for his 15 minutes of fame, but he has another motive...count on it.

Is JonBenet's Killer Still at Large?

With the latest news on the JonBenet case, with Karr being picked up for her murder, there are a couple of things that just don't make sense;

1) The time Karr lived in Georgia, JonBenet was only 1...how would Karr known the family and be obsessed with someone who hadn't entered the pageant circuit?
2) Karr's ex says that he was with her at the time of the murder...seems to me, that a spouse that is absent at Christmas time would be a red flag for something that was going on. IF that is the case, then why wouldn't have anyone put 2 and 2 together years ago?
3) How come nothing has been released about how Karr knew the Ramseys'?

I believe that Karr is merely looking for his 15 minutes of fame. Someone that is that engrossed with a case, and the case of Polly Klaas, only to become entangled in it to satisfy a need of being a celebrity. There may be more to it, such as JonBenet's parents are somehow involved in the plot.

Don't get me wrong, I think Karr is a whackjob, at best, but the pieces just don't add up. Was there a connection between Karr and Patsy and/or John?? I don't think that it's all as rosey as the news makes it out to be. The case being "solved", after 10 years, raises too many questions to be true.

If the timing of the "confession" isn't coincidence (2 months after Patsy dies), then who knows.

I don't think this case is solved...something still doesn't smell right, and Karr is seeking infamy, in a sick and twisted way.

I hope they catch the real killer, and if it's Karr, then there are questions I am sure we would all like to see answered.

Lionel Tate, convicted of murder as youngster, gets 30 years on weapons charge

Brian Skoloff, Canadian Press
Published: Thursday, May 18, 2006
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) - Lionel Tate, the teenager who got a second chance after he beat and stomped a six-year-old girl to death, was sent back to prison for 30 years Thursday for gun possession.
"In plain English, you've run out of chances. You do not get any more," Circuit Judge Joel Lazarus told Tate, who smirked as he was led off to jail in shackles.
Tate, now 19, was convicted of beating Tiffany Eunick to death in 1999, when he was 12, claiming he accidentally killed the girl while imitating pro wrestling moves he had seen on television. He became the youngest person in modern U.S. history to receive a life sentence.
His murder conviction was overturned in 2004 by an appeals court that said it was not clear Tate understood the charges. He was freed under a deal in which he pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and was sentenced to 10 years' probation.
On Thursday, he was back in court over the holdup of a pizza deliveryman last May. In a deal with prosecutors, Tate had faced 10 to 30 years in prison after pleading guilty to robbery and violating his probation by having a gun. On Thursday, the judge let him withdraw his guilty plea in the robbery but still sentenced him on the gun charge. The robbery trial is set for Sept. 18.
Defence lawyer H. Dohn Williams said he did not understand why Tate would want to go to trial on the robbery charge, given that a conviction could bring a life sentence in addition to the 30 years for the probation violation.
"He continues to get bad advice from meddling third parties," Williams said outside court. Williams said Tate's mother, Florida Highway Patrol trooper Kathleen Grossett-Tate, told him he could win an appeal on the probation violation conviction, win his robbery case and leave jail in a year. She left court without commenting.
Williams pleaded with the judge for leniency, blaming Tate's criminal behaviour on his upbringing. "The death of Tiffany Eunick would never have occurred if there had been proper parental guidance and control," Williams said. "Six-year-old Tiffany tragically died while . . . roughhousing with a six-year-old boy in a 12-year-old's body."
The judge said Tate has shown "disdain and disrespect" for the law after repeated opportunities to redeem himself. Since his release in 1999, Tate has had numerous run-ins with the law. In 2004, the judge sentenced him to an additional five years' probation for having a knife.
Last month, the judge ruled for the second time that Tate was competent to face the robbery charge after Tate claimed he was mentally ill from years of abuse by his mother. He claimed he was hearing voices and contemplating suicide, a story he later admitted was a ruse.

30 years isn't enough...this is a circumstance where the death penalty is warranted...

Been Awhile...but Back Nonetheless...

As a followup to my last posting, I sent a letter to my MP, and nothing back yet. Seems that I don't warrant an explanation as to why the child support tables have been increased. Not to worry though, because I plan on getting back my overpayments for the last 5 years...see if the ex gets a cruise this year...

Stay tuned for more info that has burned my ass recently...
