The evolution of the fairy Morgan was creating – she had multiple projects going at all times

Tuesday, January 17th

I am still trying to figure out what the #10 is that I keep hearing Morgan say in my dreams.  JH, and BH have the number 10 in their address, the address of the house they are renting 3 houses down from us.  Tonight our friend brought homemade soup over for us – we haven’t really felt like eating much since Morgan died.  My brain still can not put all the pieces together in order to figure out how she could possibly be gone.  We want her to walk through the front door and say, “Hi guys”, and then look at Tessi and say, “Hello beautiful”, just like she always has before, and trying to realize that we won’t ever see her walk through the door again is just killing us both.  We miss her, we want her back, we want a re-do so we can send her far, far away before December 2nd 2011 happens.  We know we can’t turn back the clock, but we want to so badly!

Around 3:00 pm, I am looking out my office window and BH walks from her house towards Equestrian Way, she glances at our house, but not much of anything else.

Thursday, January 19th

Steve drives to City Market in El Jebel in the early evening to pick up prescriptions, and something for dinner – I still can’t bring myself to go to the store.  I know it sound silly, but when I shop for food I keep seeing Morgan’s favorites, like pomegranates, greek yogurt, blackberries, and on and on, and I start to cry and I just don’t want to shop anymore, so Steve goes for me.  He sees KVG working at a register.  Scopes him out again, and tells me later that he is the exact body structure of all our pictures of the stalker – KVG looks uncertain when he first looks at Steve, and then a little “cocky” in Steve’s estimation.  When I share this story with the Detectives they don’t think they could have refrained from rushing him right there at his check out stand, they were really pissed.

Up until the day we found Morgan’s body on December 2, 2011 we were not 100% sure it was KVG, even though Morgan had seen him and said it was him, and the pictures of the stalker looked like him, and Detective Glassmire had said it was him, Steve and I were only 90% sure (we knew he was involved, but Steve and I always wanted to be 100% sure, if it was some kind of gang stalking, we thought he could have been one of many) and then when I found out that JH had told his client the morning Morgan was found dead, that the police now know it is KVG, and not him (which is weird, because I never heard the Sheriff’s say they thought it was JH).  Now on that day (12.2.2011) my belief went from 90% all the way to 100%. During Morgan’s stalking – after Morgan’s stalking, and all the way up to today, we have found out more and more things.  I am telling this story truthfully from the beginning until whenever I decide to stop blogging about it, but it will always change a little, because every day new evidence comes in so please bear with me – Steve and I are not investigators, but we have been blessed with so many experts, as well as people in this valley coming forward with information.

I have had 2 separate dreams again where Morgan came to me, and said the number 10.

Saturday, January 21st

We are packing up the last of the moving van today.  Steve sees the Postal Delivery person putting mail in the back of the cluster mail boxes for the subdivision – he stops and looks in the back of the boxes and sees #10 is CH & JH & BH’s mailbox (on the house they own that CH is living in 3 houses down from the rental house that JH & BH are now living in) with the JH crossed off.  They are going through a separation or a supposed divorce at the time.  But KVG lived with JH & BH during the beginning of the stalking from August 2011 – till October 2011 (October is when KVG moved out of the house JH was renting).  When Steve gets home he tells me, “Maybe that is what the number 10 means”

Sunday, January 22nd

We are moving out of the house today to the new house.  We slept in the new house for the first time tonight. Our friends helped us all day today.  I have such a hollow feeling without Morgan’s happy demeanor around the house, but I do feel her spirit with me and it always has a calming effect.

Monday, January 23rd 

Our son’s partner calls me, she says she thought she saw KVG drive by her house in his green car, she is worried because she knows that stalker’s sometimes watch the families of the deceased victim so she goes on Facebook, his privacy settings are now down, she sees a reference to being arrested, and goes online to the Post Independent newspaper to see if she can find something.  She finds the following article.

Theft by receiving: Officers received a report on Dec. 23 of theft from a home. At 5 p.m. that day in the 1400 block of Grand Avenue, officers stopped a car driven by Keenan James Vanginkel, 19, of Carbondale and arrested him on a $1,000 warrant for theft by receiving. He was also found to be in possession of less than 6 ounces of marijuana, and was charged with possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia and intent to sell marijuana. Felony distributing

I emailed Detective Alstatt – Detective Glassmire is out of town and Detective Alstatt says they have not heard about this.  (this is kind of unbelievable to me!)  In the year of 2011 how can law enforcement agencies not have a database that will pull up and flag a name if it pops up in a different jurisdiction? – but they don’t!!!  Detective Glassmire says he told the Glenwood Police (Glenwood is only a 20 minute drive from our house and right where the stalking suspect supposedly lives) about the name, and description of our suspect, and they should have informed him.  Now we can all see why these criminals can work a certain area without ever getting caught…all they have to do is go between the different city and county law agency areas, even if they are all within a half hour driving radius and (wallah!) you probably will never get caught for the same crime.  Detective Glassmire emails me back later to let me know what he has found out about KVG’s court date.  It is February 16th.  Detective Glassmire says he will meet us with our camera on February 5th.

We slept in the new house tonight- so happy to be out of that neighborhood.

Tuesday, January 24th – 28th not much happened we just unpacked

Sunday, January 29th

This morning we got out of the house, Steve and I and had breakfast at the Village Smithy, and went shopping with our granddaughter.  We talked about what to do next.  How were the detectives going to catch this stalker – they didn’t even know he had been arrested.  I had told the detectives about the missing jewelry, I had told them about our son’s partner being worried, even her brother said he saw the car drive be a few times.

Monday, January 30th 

Our son’s partner tells me that J got kicked off BH’s Facebook, she found out he is related to us, and yells at him that we are spreading lies about her – what lies?  We have not said anything to anyone about BH.  Steve looks at the scratches on hood of LR3, it had been parked in front of our son’s house while we were out of town for a few days and our son and his family had been gone as well at that time.

Tuesday, January 31st

Spoke with Pat (assistant registrar at CMC) and asked for Morgan’s list of classes she took over the years (either completed or dropped), and she asked me to fax her a letter stating I am the executor of her estate and that I need this information faxed back to me.  I signed it and put her CMC # on it and fax it back to her.

So in conclusion, even though the biggest thing during this time was finding out about KVG being arrested and the detectives not knowing about it; I keep wondering about the dreams I keep having where I see Morgan’s face and very clearly she says to me 10, and in my mind I question 10? – and then I hear her say (in a little more excited voice) one, zero, the number 10.  What does this mean I keep asking myself – just because Steve saw the number 10 on the back of the inside of the H’s mailbox doesn’t necessarily mean that’s what the 10 stands for.  This is so strange, because this is the only time Morgan has come to me in a dream, and I feel so inadequate to not be able to know for sure what it means.
