[@christinetorrisi2322]

@@amberlimbaugh It’s amazing that they don’t have any awareness or conscious memories of the horrific event, but I’ve studied a lot about child brain development as a parenting and pregnancy social worker and unfortunately they could have latent memories and unconscious/subconscious trauma since the first five years of a child’s life their brain is soaking in so much information and they are being affected by everything that’s happening around them. So it’s possible that they’re struggling in other areas of their lives and don’t realize there’s a connection. But I pray they’ve sought therapy to just work through the event and losing their mom and to think about and process how it could be affecting them without them realizing. Ultimately seeing that they’re doing so well is a wonderful sign and I wish them only happiness and peace in their lives.

[@greyceeb7304]

Your very right. The justice system is definitely screwed up big time. They don’t want to waste money trying monsters like this for all their crimes. My sons father was murdered. We knew who murdered him, so did the police but after months of them telling us they were going to make an arrest and acting like they were going to do their job if our family kept our cool and didn’t speak to the press. They finally came back months later and told us they decided they weren’t going to arrest the person or even press charges because the monster would use the insanity defense and the DA from the county we live in thought it would end up being a “waste of their money” in their words for them to pursue this cold blooded murder. This happened in 2014 and his murder still walks free today. So we have no faith in the justice system what so ever anymore after this happened. Their more worried about money than they are about getting real justice for the victims and their loved ones. Especially if the victims families didn’t come from a more well off family. It makes me sick. I don’t usually speak much about this but sadly that’s what it all comes down to is money and if the victims aren’t from well off families then justice is going to have a much different outcome in the United States at least. Stay safe and take care everyone 👋🏻

It doesn't really show what type of person you are if you count them or not, to be 100% honest. You can see them as one entity while also seeing the kid as a valid life. The only time I ever despised them counting unborn babies in death was for the covid count 🤷🏼‍♀️ felt like they counted them to make the number seem higher and it wasn't an accurate number at that point.

His death sentence was overturned because at the time he was sentenced, Florida was one of three states that allowed judges to sentence defendants to death even without a unanimous jury vote. In his original trial, the jury voted 10-2 for the death penalty. They amended the law. So he had a resentencing hearing. And again, the jury voted 10-2 for the death penalty. But with the amended law, this meant that the judge had to go with the non-unanimous jury, which is how his sentence was ultimate changed from the death penalty to life in prison without parole. I can’t help but think that if they were able to show that he was responsible seven murd3rs and taking nine lives, that the jury would have been unanimous for a death penalty vote, imo.

If you watch "I am a Killer" series on Netflix, some of those killers actually want death penalty because apparently on "death row" it's better than in "general population". And because it takes decades before there is actual execution, they spend their life in what some of them consider "much better" situation, and they get a "peaceful easy" death, versus "lifers" who die from illnesses and such.

[@Bonkpunktexe]

honestly i think it's better that he got life in prison anyways. the death penalty is just giving them an easy out, while a life sentence means they have to live with what they did until they die

Eleanor, thank you so much for saying “black” and not “African-American”. Not everyone understands the difference in these descriptors.

True. And even though I know everyone in the US knows what African American means I use the word black. People living here are Americans. It’s ridiculous there is a qualifier added.

Honestly, because we don't exactly know if there's anything beyond death, I feel like him suffering in prison for the rest of his life is better than just straight up dying. At least we know he's suffering then.

[@allisonickes8173]

It depends. A lot of times if there's not enough evidence they wouldn't or can't. So if he was found not guilty they still have others to go to when they found the evidence. It may seem crazy but that could be why

[@theroyalhive2023]

I think they tried him for the single murder because it wouldve been less time consuming, and, by using the evidence collected from the other crime scenes, it wouldve been easier to convict him on the 1 murder based on probability. Putting him on trial for each individual victim could lead to him being found not-guilty on at least 1

Hi Eleanor, I’m from Grenada a country in the W. I. We don’t get much coverage on some of the gruesome cases that happens as we are a small country and it doesn’t happen often. I want to tell you about this case that’s linked to Britain as the killer is a Bristish man who killed a Grenadian woman. His name is Alexander Clack. He was married to Nixian Downes- Clack. He was extremely abusive towards her and they had a daughter together. He started sleeping with their 17 year old babysitter at the time and she found out and decided she would finally leave him. He beat and killed her and put her body in a suitcase, burying her in a shallow grave. He was convicted and sentenced to 67 years but he has only spent 8 years in prison. He is now out and apparently returning to the uk. He has been identified on numerous dating websites. Her family is worried and they feel like justice was not served. I know it might be a bit hard to cover because of the location but it would be great if you consider it because he is dangerous and out looking for partners. People need to be aware of what he has done to protect themselves from him. At least that would be some small kind of justice for Nixian
