The Vicious Story Of Denise Amber Lee

Denise Amber Lee had secretly called 911 while blindfolded and restrained in the back seat of a car. She desperately tried to tell the 911 operator as much information as possible before her captive caught her on the phone, and the call went silent.
It was the only chance Denise had to reach out for help. Yet, hers would not be the only call 911 would receive regarding her kidnapping that day.
In the end, it would be one of many attempts that would fail to save her life.

If the government decided that the country was overpopulated and the last-born child of every family had to be taken out in the street and executed to solve the problem, the police would be the ones dragging your youngest child out on the street and executing them.

Harold The Coward

[@bertjesklotepino]

Just asking and pls dont get me wrong: Would you immediately have called the police given the fact that it was a family member? I just am curious. Would you indeed immediately think the worst scenario possible if it was a family member who came to ask for a few things? Harold may be a coward but how should he have been able to put 1 and 1 together? He aint a detective, or is he? Just imagine this happening to you, out of the blue. A family member comes up to you and asks for a few things, and you witness some other stuff. I don't know. It is difficult to say. Parents defend their child even if their child has killed someone. It is very difficult to judge and say Harold is to blame for this. I think it is very difficult to imagine a family member going crazy, or witnessing it happening. And when it happens infront of your eyes, i think most of us will not just pick up the phone and start calling, because most of us do not expect that. It would surprise the heck out of us if it would happen.

[@bertjesklotepino]

to be honest: i think Harold is just as much a victim here as well. Sure, he could have, he should have, but he didn't. He for sure is gonna think about that for the rest of his life. (given the fact he did call, i think he knows the rest of the story. We aint all Einsteins, able to put 1 and 1 together right at the heat of the moment.) But again: Would you pick up the phone if it was a relative coming to ask you for a bit of help with some stuff? It is so damn easy to say you would sitting behind a monitor. Never ever having experienced any of this.

[@Aethelhald]

They build up to it. A man who rapes, tortures and murders an innocent young woman who is begging for her life like this doesn't start that way, they start small, usually while very young, usually with small animals that can't fight back. The first time they do it they probably feel guilty for hurting the animal, but at the same time they enjoy it, so they do it again and again, and eventually the screaming has no effect, they just focus on the pleasure they get from it. It's like with soldiers in war. When they first kill someone it might be very difficult, they may even cry about it later and have nightmares. But the more they do it, the easier it is. It even applies to simple things, like when it's the first cold day of winter, you are freezing, you don't want to go out, but after 2 weeks of cold you get used to it, don't care anymore, just go. This is why children who exhibit sadistic behaviour (such as torturing animals) should go on a watchlist for life and be tracked at all times - implant a chip in them in some place where it cannot be removed, or have stiff jail sentences if they remove it. Children who torture animals are almost guaranteed to become torturers of people eventually.
