What Does It Mean When You Have To Lie? Protecting a Stalker/Murderer?

Morgan always with her camera

Morgan always with her camera

On Twitter, Morgan has an account called Morgan’s Stalking.  It started as a further way to raise awareness of the true horror that stalking is.  The account had other uses as well.  For people who wanted to know when a new post came out by a “tweet”, this was the only way to do that.

Well one of the followers posed a question to a person talking about Morgan on the Internet and was told in the simplest of terms that  Keenan VanGinkel was never named in the Sheriff’s reports, more specifically he was never named as a suspect.  Lie!  Short answer, Lie!  Long answer – Lie!  Get the picture?  And then I ask, why would you have to lie?

I now see an end to the lies, for those that are interested in the truth anyway.  After numerous requests I finally have some of the official records from the Sheriff’s Department and none yet from the Coroner’s office.  And please don’t offer to share yours with me, that is very nice, but unless it comes straight from the source how can I honestly represent that this is what their reports really include?

Now an avid reader of the blog, and supporter of Morgan’s cause tells me about other sources of reports out there that can be accessed.  Many others exist, but those are behind passwords, and not so easily accessed.  So this one set of records that can be accessed is 75 pages long, and the website admits to redacting the reports to remove some of the content.  Are these the same records that are being represented to never mention Keenan VanGinkel or Keenan VanGinkel as a suspect?  Is that how this works now?

So there exists a set of reports wrapped in such sincere claims of honesty and truth, that is 75 pages long.  Lie number 1 exposed – just the supplemental reports that I have are 220 pages long.  Wouldn’t you say that 220 pages down to 75 pages is one heck of a lot of redacting?  And as to lie number 2, Keenan is never named in the reports,  for the record, in the full 220 page “unredacted” version, Keenan VanGinkel’s name is mentioned at least 214 times.  Not zero – two hundred and fourteen. And that is not the shocking part of the reports, just the sound of a few lies hitting the floor.

But why would you lie?  Why would you feel the need to alter the Sheriff’s reports so greatly, my Nana would know, she would say that if you have to lie, think, maybe you are doing something wrong!  If you have redacted Keenan VanGinkel’s name from your reports and you then represent that his name is never mentioned in the reports, that is not a clever half-truth – it is a lie, but as I said before that is not the shocking part.

What I find shocking in the reports that I do have is that as I go back and forth from my notes to the reports, there are incidents not reported in the incident reports, completely missing.  Until the process is complete, I can’t be absolutely sure what exactly is not there, but at this point I will tell you that there appears to be quite a few incidents of what was purported to be felony behavior by Keenan VanGinkel that is not a part of the supplemental reports at all.

I refer to the 2010 revision of the Stalking Statues of the State of Colorado – 18-3-602 (7) A peace officer shall have a duty to respond as soon as reasonably possible to a report of stalking and to cooperate with the alleged victim in investigating the report.

Now, if there is no supplemental report, then how do we know what the investigation required by statute consisted of?  When the Sheriff sends a Deputy out to “take a report” what does that mean?  I would think there would be writing involved in “taking a report”, wouldn’t you?

Perhaps it will all to turn out to be innocent, and there will be reports that were mistakenly not forwarded to me as a part of the package containing “all of the Garfield Sheriff’s Reports pertaining to Morgan Jennifer Ingram” or maybe I do have all of the official reports.  That of course will mean that some of the felony stalking incidents reported to the Sheriffs did not rise to the level of a report becoming, well… a report, and believe me the ones I know off the top of my head that are missing definitely should be in there – they are very important incidents.

One way or another it will all get worked out over this excruciating period, and what I believe will only become more and more obvious is that a group of people have endeavored to lie on behalf of Keenan VanGinkel.  Starting with claims that his name is not mentioned in the Sheriff’s reports, not once.  Not really, as we all know now, at least 214 times.  And if you really want to know that 214 does not count emails, texts, phone conversations, 911 calls, calls to dispatch, in person conversations with Deputies and Detectives, etc., etc.  There was a suspect, and his name was Keenan VanGinkel, he rose to the level of a suspect that certain officers were 100% sure of.

Unfortunately it appears that in opposition to Morgan’s Blog about Morgan’s stalking there will be lies told, to protect stalkers is the only reason I can come up with.  I believe, without a doubt, they are lies told to protect the perpetrators of the felony crimes committed against Morgan Jennifer.  Why else would there be such a need to lie?  And on such a regular basis?  And to lie so completely in opposite of the facts, why?

Not that Keenan was mentioned less than a hundred times, when the truth is he was really mentioned at least 214, that is too close to the truth for some who wish for, and evidently need a complete cover-up of the truth.  So, these protectors of stalkers and peeping toms go all the way from at least 214 times (the truth), to zero, none, never (a complete lie). So here is a suggestion that may help, and goes to my idea of a truth.  If you come across a website dedicated to Morgan’s memory, good or bad, and there is not a name associated with that website, ask yourself why?  Never a real name of real people – just ask why?  Could be its Keenan himself writing a story about how he was not even here, ever.  And yes, I have heard about the one with a person’s name, and that the person does not even exist, she is someone else entirely, well that person too – just ask why?

In my life I have seen interviews with a perp that we watched from the victim side of the one way glass, and I will tell you that they lie.  Oh do they lie – they lie, and lie, and lie.  Criminals questioned, and lying seems to go hand in hand.  Especially criminals, caught and in fear that there is no way out – they lie, far more times when it is a do-or-die situation for them.

If a person or group has to resort to redacting out over half of the Sheriff’s reports along with every mention of Keenan VanGinkel, or Brooke Harris before they are satisfied that they really have the “truth”, why?  Haven’t you taken the Sheriff’s best estimate of the truth, and turned it into a lie?

The truth never changes.  If it takes 220 pages for the Sheriff’s to tell a part of their story, then how can it be shortened by 145 pages (by others on the Internet trying to say that Morgan was not stalked or murdered), and then every instance of Keenan Vanginkel and Brooke Harris has been removed, and then what do you have, really?  How can all that be removed and then an attempt be made to pass it off as the truth, when in reality it is one big lie?  This isn’t the first time this has happened to victims (I know many other victims who have shared their horrific stories), and I’m sure it won’t be the last, very unfortunately – blame the victim(s), redirect people’s attention, keep the real criminal out of jail, and above all else, lie… there are many psychological reasons people do this, but the bottom line is they are protecting a criminal.  Sometimes a murdering criminal!!!

And now as Easter 2013, with all its wonderful moments that are now such precious memories, has passed us by, and Easter baskets filled by the Easter Bunny, with all the little goodies that are still fresh in our minds, here’s a moment of thanks from Steve and I to all of you who oppose stalking, all of us can really change the world to be a better, safer place, – we know it now.  in less than a year the arrests of stalkers continues to mount, Steve and I wish for it to include Morgan’s stalker, voyeur, and murderer,  but for now we wait, satisfied with arrest after arrest of criminals, and another victim saved.

I especially want to say thank you for all of the kind thoughts, and loving memories of Morgan shared over the weekend. And as a last thought I read a “tweet” that said, “Like Jesus Christ who died for our sins, Morgan Ingram died for all stalking victims” – to that, both Steve and I say as long as there is breath in our bodies, Morgan’s legacy shall be there to help save victims of stalking in any little way that we can.

And Nana, this is twice I have used your name and your advice, so again I get to say, “I love you Nana.”  And I like how that works out.

And Tessie says – Goodnight, it’s been such a weekend!

Thursday, March 1st

11:30 am we met with Dr. Lonnie Zeltzer in California, she has now reviewed all of Morgan’s past and present medical history as well as the PER and Tox results, and the infamous page that explains a 7,909 ng/ml blood level of amitriptyline as “insignificant”, courtesy of Dr. Kurtzman, and she believes Morgan died when her heart stopped for only a few seconds, then her lungs would have automatically filled up with fluid and this would have been enough to kill her. She believes at this point the stress and fear of the stalker was the cause of her death and offers to talk with our Pathologist to improve the state of Pathology in Colorado. She feels that, without a doubt, Morgan’s death is a homicide. Steve and I were mere neophytes at this process of justice back then, we walked out of that meeting not even beginning to grasp the battle that has, and will ensue for our daughter, and all of the other victims laid to rest under a veil of lies.

UCLA Medical Center is nothing less than amazing.  It is what is known as a teaching hospital.  Some of the finest doctors in this nation have graduated from there, and the teaching never stops, improving your knowledge throughout your career as a medical professional. The absolute latest, life saving greatest, and there is a reason people travel without question to go there. From personal family experience USC is equally amazing as is the Mayo Clinic, well you have to see it to believe it, it is a small city unto itself.

I know there are a few with a very deep vested interest that this is not true, but Steve and I now know, without a doubt, in March of 2013 that she was murdered, first with a massive over-kill dose of amitriptyline, and at this time her death was still being called natural causes.  And thanks to Dr. Zeltzer, and the others she called upon to confer their opinion, even if she had not had the massive amount in her system of amitriptyline she still would have been a homicide victim, because of her stalker.

That afternoon we were, to say at the least, very shook up to hear all of this about our daughter.

At 3:00 pm we went to Steve’s appointment with his doctor in California.  Just in case you wonder why, after doctor’s across Colorado shook their heads solemnly at his chances years ago, specialists at USC had a different outlook, and we are endlessly grateful to have listened to those with the knowledge and the latest, life saving greatest, expertise. If only the one man involved in Morgan’s death had been as willing…if he had listened to these experts because they do know – they are at the epicenters of research, they are not pompous, condescending, they want the best for all, believe me, we are indebted to the passion with which they conduct their chosen profession, often without even ever knowing it.

Friday, March 2nd

10:30 am we went to meet and speak with Jennifer Shaffer – http://www.jennifershaffer.com – Clairvoyant Medium & Psychic Investigator/Profiler – for the first time. Jennifer works with individuals, families, and police departments and has also worked with the FBI.  As a Psychic Medium Investigator she profiles suspects and locates missing loved ones through remote viewing. She spoke with us for over 4 hours – we were shocked at how time flew…we were told about her by a mutual friend, and she did not charge anything for her time – she says she does this type of work as a way of giving back. She was so sweet and kind, and not anything like I expected. Of course Steve and Morgan’s older sister were sitting at the table being very quiet, stiff and skeptical – which is a good thing, I believe when presented with someone you do not know, you should not automatically trust them. They now have come to know, and love Jennifer for the wonderful, and very gifted person she is.

I can not, and should not tell you everything she told us during that 4 hour period, but I can mention a few things. She said Morgan is in a beautiful place – it has a bright light, it is a very clean place (I laughed when she said that, because the morning we found her body her room was extra extremely disheveled, she is with all her animals around her (those that have passed before her and were waiting for her), Jennifer describes the stalker as skinny, dark thick hair, very scary and confirms the name Keenan is the stalker, he was in her room, his back to her closet door, she is seeing a window, he is watching her sleep. It continues on from there, but what I would like to tell you all is that so far all the information Jennifer has given us, as far as clues, or evidence goes has been confirmed 100% so even though a psychic’s testimony might not hold up in court they are just like any other witness – they can provide, as Jennifer herself calls them, just leads, and when law enforcement acts on those leads, and makes discoveries, that does become admissible. A good little system of checks and balances wouldn’t you say?

Saturday, March 3rd

We went up to the wine country, made famous by the movie Sideways with our daughter, her husband, and Steve’s best friend. It was really hard to pretend to be happy and to be in the moment but honestly being with people you love does help, and being by the ocean for part of the day helped a lot too, as it has such a grounding effect.

And then I received an email from my friend. She said simply – “We have to make sure Morgan is heard.” She believes when the word is out front and center, we will have the footing to push for a better protocol, even law (then what they have now), and a better registry system – same as with sex offenders.

I then received an email from Jennifer:

I know that Morgan wants everything that you said – to happen – her story needs to be out there and I know it will be a game changer for the future lives of other young girls who are helpless….. I know it might be a long, tough road ahead of us, but I also know that if any group can make this happen we can.

Your strength, Toni, is what has fueled this unfoldment into something that will help so many others. Your whole family is going to see this through.

What an amazing family – thanks again for bringing me into this ___, it is an honor to be part of a future where there will be more accountability, protection and eventually peaceful resolution with some closure.

Please keep me in this loop and call on me for anything. I love Morgan and I will make sure she can always be heard….

Sunday, March 4th

I spoke with our good friend (former Federal Special Agent) while driving to Steve’s brother and sister-in-laws house for a family dinner. We slept over at their house tonight. Steve’s brother will work on the website, and our sister-in-law has offered to help edit all written content. Steve and I do not really know what “it” is, but it is happening fast.

Monday, March 5th

Steve and I drive back to our daughter’s house tonight

Tuesday, March 6th

We returned the rental car, and we flew back to Aspen today. We picked up our pets, checked the mail boxes, went to the grocery store, and hardware store on our way home.

Wednesday, March 7th

I spoke with Thomas Walton at Farnum Holt Funeral Home about three errors in the Postmortem Examination Report – got his email to send him the edits.

I left a voice message for Dr. Kurtzman in order to get his email address for Dr. Zeltzer, I also emailed Dr. Zeltzer with Dr. Kurtzman’s fax # to send the info to him, that way just in case he doesn’t “do” email (as his secretary/assistant has told me over the phone) he will still get the information.  Dr. Kurtzman calls back in late afternoon – gives me his email for Dr. Zeltzer, scoffs at the notion that he does not “do” email, and asks me where I got that idea, I don’t tell, and accept the mistake as my own. I also left a voice message for the last doctor that Morgan saw, an educated guess, 34 hours before her death, to call me – and asked if they have they spoken with Dr. Kurtzman yet?  Detective Glassmire calls later on and we update each other. He tells us about the interview he is trying to have with Keenan about the picture up our driveway on October 18th to tell him that he knows its him in the picture.  We go to see our son, and his family and to tell them about all of the details from our California trip.

At 5:02 pm, Detective Alstatt sent a text, “Just got your message. Sorry had no service, was teaching at CMC. Detective Glassmire said he reached you. Hope all is well.”

Thursday, March 8th

Spoke with Morgan’s doctor – she says Dr. Kurtzman has not called her yet (I can’t believe he hasn’t called her yet, because we asked him to call her right after Morgan died for his notes, so he would know what Morgan’s doctor could report about that exam, and how she thought Morgan was doing). Dr. Zeltzer calls and tells us she should have all the material to email Dr. Kurtzman on Monday. Farnum Holt calls to say they can’t make any edits to the Coroner’s Report until they speak with Detective Glassmire & Dr. Kurtzman. This is of course just one of the many, “run arounds”, the two he must call are the very two who have told us to just tell him! They have told us independently that, “of course you are the ones who found her, and know these things, it is without question”. Well even her body position when we found her is still wrong, the FBI tells us there is no law against incompetence and I say, at what point does incompetence become something else altogether?

I never hear back from Farnum Holt again after that – they never sent us anything to confirm that they made any changes. We are now in the big endless loop of no communication whatsoever on their part, is this their way of dealing with things? The Coroner has never answered a call, but now it is across the board.  Do they think maybe we will just go away and just drop it, is that why I get so many emails from other people in this valley saying they wish they had stayed with it like Steve and I have? And the very notion of going away, after the week we just had in California, our daughter dead and the potential killer still free to prey upon the valley?…is beyond doubtful.

At 6:37 pm, I sent a text message to Detective Alstatt, “No problem – I spoke with Detective Glassmire. I am doing fine. Steve is having a harder time, but I feel like I can keep moving forward with things. Take care!” Detective Alstatt responded back, “you too :)”

Friday, March 9th

11:00 am, I meet with Dr. Knaus, Morgan’s PCP (to let him know Dr. Kurtzman might call him). Tracy (our new neighbor) comes over and we tell her about the California trip.

Went to our son’s house for dinner tonight.

Saturday, March 10th

Our son’s family comes over to the house for breakfast this morning.

Steve and I leave for St. Mary’s Glacier, just this side of Idaho Springs and arrive at 5:30 pm by the Mine in Idaho Springs to meet with our friend (retired Federal Special Agent) to discuss the latest on Morgan’s case.

Sunday, March 11th

We return from Idaho Springs this afternoon.

I was sent the following links today from a family member:

http://www.scientificamerican.com/article.cfm?id=scared-to-death-heart-attack

She feels we should look more into Involuntary Manslaughter.

Monday, March 12th

Steve finds a blade under the tree at 62 Corral Drive where we found saw something else previously – N saw details on the roof, Steve took and bagged the red chair with permission from Ken’s house as well.

Detective Alstatt is on her way over to collect evidence, some kind of double sided blade has been found under the tree at 62 Corral Drive right under the previous evidence that was already put into evidence.  At 4:09 pm Detective Alstatt sent a text, “Hey going back an forth with Detective Glassmire via text. He’s out of state and I just got done with interviewing a kiddo. Left a message for Steve. Trying to get hold of him….” Detective Glassmire sent me an email. I answered and told him we will make a list, and try to find pictures of any of Morgan’s missing items, like her items of clothing and jewelry.

Detective Glassmire wants me to have Steve look over cell phone bills, and let him know if we notice anything on a particular subject on the billing for the cell phone records. I’m certainly interested in knowing.

Jennifer calls and says she keeps seeing a water bottle (she didn’t know but Morgan always had her glass or metal water bottles with her in the car, and D said she was drinking only water all afternoon on that last day (he thinks from her glass bottle – we had two old cool looking, vodka bottles with snap on lids that we saved and Morgan liked to drink water out of, because she thought the water tasted better out of a glass bottle than out of a metal bottle) Jennifer thinks the water bottle had something in it that was slowly poisoning Morgan. She believes someone was doing this to her along with stalking her.

Tuesday, March 13th

I speak with the CBI as to how they can be brought into an investigation, and Patty at CBI says they have to be requested by local law enforcement. Toni sent Detective Alstatt a text at 1:35 pm “Megan please call me when you can – I just received an upsetting phone call Thanks” Megan responded “give me 5 minutes” I said “No problem thanks” This was about something I just heard about a new stalking going on.

Wednesday, March 14th

Diana Ross’ daughter Amanda was stalked, and shot when she walked out her front door. Diana was on Good Morning America, 20/20 trying to get the law changed so when you do take out a restraining order then there is a GPS tracker bracelet put on the stalker, and you will know if he is around. The Cynthia L. Bischos bracelet the Cindy Bracelet – L— is finding out if they can help with anti-stalking laws.

Thursday, March 15th

Steve and I go over to our old neighbors house and take pictures of the roof over Morgan’s old bedroom window, we are now convinced this is how the stalker avoided detection and was able to easily look into Morgan’s upper windows, and tap on her windows to scare her and never be seen. We also took pictures of the tree the stalker climbed up to the roof (very easily) and at the same point of the yard that the motion detector lights would always come on at night. I would hear scraping on the ceiling sometimes at night too, but thought it was birds or a mouse or squirrel. Boy was I wrong, and now that I have heard from so many people about someone living in their attic, or crawl space of their house unbeknownst to them I now know if you hear something on your roof at night you should just check it out. Have your local Law Enforcement check it out too, and of course let all the neighbors know. The price for the smallest oversight can become very, very large. Wasn’t it our grandmothers who told us that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure?  Mine did, more than once, and I love you Nana.

Wednesday, February 15th

At 4:00 pm I went to my appointment in Aspen again to meet with a spiritual advisor.

Thursday, February 16th

K’s court date – V J wanted to be there instead of us and she thought it should be on a Wednesday, not a Thursday because of the charge.  She said court starts at 8:30 am and suggested we talk to Detective Glassmire & Detective Alstatt and they should speak with the Glenwood Police so the Police and the Judge know he is also being investigated for Morgan’s stalking case – it shouldn’t look like he is squeaky clean and this is his only one mistake!  Detective Glassmire said Trent Cook is the Manager at City Market that vouched for Keenan and told him that K is an ideal employee and squeaky clean, never did drugs, and has never been in trouble.  Really?  Obviously we were not talking about the same person here.  I wonder if they have standards at City Market, like who can be a checker and request your daughters drivers license because she is buying products that you have to be eighteen to purchase?

Friday, February 17th

Not much of anything important happened today.

Saturday, Februrary 18th

Our son and his family have a sleep over and a movie night tonight at our house – it’s nice to have kids around and noise in the house again, even if only for one night.

Sunday, February 19th and Monday, February 20th

Not much happened.

 Tuesday, February 21st 

Called and spoke with Detective Glassmire – he gave me the name of the man that owns the truck/SUV that we saw slowly cruising our neighborhood before Morgan died and every time we tried to pull out to catch it, it would take off.  One time we were close enough to see in through the tinted windows of the driver’s side, and we viewed a young male with dark hair and sunglasses.  The name was not familiar to us so that evening we googled the owner’s name, and it was not him in the car.  He is about our age, came to the valley in the 70’s like us and then we checked and he does have a son named DS (DR knows him and says he is a good guy, maybe it is his truck and just registered in his father’s name).  DS sounds like he is about 24 years old.  Does he know K? (K used to live in the valley close to Basalt when he was younger before his parents’ divorce, he went to the same church that we had Morgan’s memorial service at, he also went to school there with people Morgan knew very well).  Did this DS work at City Market, and did he unknowingly lend his car to K, was he an unwitting pawn in the crime somehow?  K surely knew everyone was watching out for his little green car after he moved out of Aspen Equestrian Estates neighborhood.  There are live video surveillance cameras all around City Market, even in the back where the employees park – why didn’t K’s manager offer up footage to Detective Glassmire as evidence that K did not leave during the times Morgan was terrorized?  The manager never even mentioned the cameras to Detective Glassmire.  We told the detective about the cameras and he was surprised to discover they had them.

Wednesday, February 22nd

Today I am updating this time sheet – I have been so busy with work, I haven’t been able to put much detail into it.

Thursday, February 23rd

At 10:14 am I emailed Detective Glassmire with the call in # for Dr. Kurtzman, and himself for Monday’s conference call with Steve and I at 4:00 pm.  We are going to California for a meeting with Morgan’s Doctor at UCLA and want to talk over exactly what is important and what we need to move forward on the possible influence the stalking had on her death.

 Friday, February 24th

Mogwai (Morgan’s cat) woke me up around 2:00 am by petting my face and saying “Nana”!  This completely freaked me out.  I have never been a cat person (although I love all animals) I am more of a dog person I guess you can say.  So when Mogwai woke me up like that, I jumped out of bed – he went flying and was not very happy with me.  I guess Mogwai has always been a talker, but that was just a little over the top for me.

Steve has been having such bad chest pains and my sister D emails me article from Johns Hopkins http://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/Press_releases/2005/02_10_05.html

I went to have my hair cut today – I had not seen my hairdresser/friend since 2 weeks before Morgan was murdered, when she had cut Morgan’s hair.  That same day she said Morgan looked like her stalker was “sucking the life out of her”, and this had made her very angry that day.  Maybe that is why I took those pictures of Morgan, right after she had her hair cut, just 2 weeks before she was murdered.  When you see someone every day, and your whole life has been turned upside down from being woken up at all hours of the night, you tend to not see what is right in front of you, but that day,  I must have intuitively known to take those pictures with my cell phone, because of what I had just heard that day.  Now when I look back on those pictures of Morgan I can see how exhausted she was and what a toll this had taken…she was trying so hard to keep with her happy demeanor, but on that afternoon you could see just how much it was getting to her, what a toll it was all taking on her health.

Saturday, February 25th

Gary Katzenberger (the head of the Theatre Dept. at CMC) spoke to me about Morgan – she had been his student in Philosophy and Comparative Religions, etc., and after we spoke about the Scholarship fund we had set up in Morgan’s name he then told me about a woman from GWS – he said she is a published writer and might help do a book about what happened to Morgan and maybe they can do a play at CMC to bring about stalker awareness.  I told him I would love to do that at some point in time – if we could get information about stalking out to not only the general public, but also to high schools and college age students that would be wonderful.

Sunday, February 26th

Sent Detective Glassmire a text with TK’s cell #.  Also asked him to call her.  He texted me back that he was sick, but would be in on the Monday call with Dr. Kurtzman

Had a big dinner party at our house tonight.  I am starting to get the picture that all these wonderful friends of Morgan’s, everyone in our family, and a lot of our friends are trying to make sure we don’t just turtle from life and hold up in the house by ourselves, so they keep making lunch and dinner dates over at our house to keep us company.  It’s so nice of them, honestly if it weren’t for them we would have really would want to just curl up in a ball and disappear at times.  Mogwai looked at Wylah, and said “Wylah” again tonight when we went to bed.  I can’t believe that cat keeps talking like this – it’s a little strange…

Monday, February 27th

Went to Aspen for a meeting this morning – stopped by to pick up mail on the way home, then got a strange feeling, and went through the El Jebel City Market parking lot to look for K’s car.  His car was there so I took more pictures of the front, back and driver’s side of the car.   It looked to me exactly like the car that came up our driveway the night Morgan was alone and our cameras caught someone coming up our driveway.

At 4:15 pm Steve and I had a conference call with Detective Rob Glassmire & Dr. Kurtzman (Forensic Pathologist).  Then Dr. Kurtzman sent me a fax directly following our call.

Tuesday, February 28th

Got fax from Dr. Kurtzman’s office again as well as the last of the records from Valley View hospital and a GWS doctor of Morgan’s to bring to Dr. Zeltzer in California.  The fax was concerning her postmortem Amitriptyline blood levels, and how they were insignificant.

Wednesday, February 29th

Steve and I flew to Los Angeles for meetings today.

 

November 25, 2011 – Day 116 of Morgan’s Stalking – Quiet? Maybe Not!

Posted on by


Yesterday we had a wonderful Thanksgiving day with Morgan.  The leftovers are always the best part for me, and the Maroon Creek Club knows this, we left with more than we ate there!  We almost had leftovers for breakfast.

Steve left early for work, he has deadlines and he is not one to shy away from that.  Nothing makes him happier than keeping up with what he has to do.  Morgan and I have a breakfast together, and talk about Steve. She is worried that he is so worried about her.  I tell her that is funny, because he is worried that she is so worried about him.  We laugh and talk about the place he wants us to move to.  About how he would have never told her, but it was about how great the defensive stance from there is.

Even though I have promised Steve to not say this, I talk about how we are both so worried about her and for the immediate future it is a good move.  Morgan does not want us to worry.  She echoes something Steve had said often, about how all of the security measures we have put in place have created an invisible 10 foot barrier around the house…I’m not completely convinced.

I remind Morgan that he also says that the 10 foot barrier is all we have, and we really need much more than that.  She pauses and is quite reflective, agreeing that maybe we should move. I never really thought she would agree with that, but suddenly she had.  It is nothing less than a breath of fresh air to me, I tell her I will tell her Daddy and he will be so happy to move.  That her safety is all he cares about.

Morgan gushes with surprise as she always does at moments like this.  Her Daddy is so important to her, just like he is to her big sister, she says it will be a big job, and are we sure we want to do it right before Christmas?  I assure her that the next couple of weeks we really have nothing to do, when in fact both of us are quite maxed out.

That afternoon we have “leftovers” again for lunch.  I ask Morgan if she wants to invite anyone over to share, but she say no, she wants to just be with me, and Daddy, if he has time.  I call Steve, but he is at his shop and has deadlines that need to get finished and he is afraid he will even be working late to get it all done.  His brother has lent him a worker, and he is doing his best, wishes he could be with us, but says to go ahead without him.

Her sister sends her a heart on a text.  Morgan talks to her friends on her cell phone who remind her that a good friend is going to be playing at the Carbondale guitar shop tonight and they want her to be there.  She says maybe to them and wants to know from me when Steve will be home.  I call Steve and he tells me he will leave now, that family has to come before what he is doing.  He will just get up earlier for work and all will be fine.

I tell Morgan he is leaving right now to come home and she is happy.  She wants to spend some time with us and then go see her friend play, to support her.  I agree with her and we busy ourselves in the kitchen, working away and sort of making up for Thanksgiving in a restaurant by having the leftovers at home together.  She was growing into such a sweet young woman, worried about helping those all around her, and I was so proud of her at that moment.

Morgan sends her friend Calder a message at 7:44 pm, “Hey what are you up to?” Calder writes back, “If you’re with Nate tell him we should chill tomorrow.”  Morgan responds, “I’m at home having dinner.  I’ll let him know.  What are your plans tonight?”  Calder says, “Looking for something to do.”  Morgan says, “Well are you still free?  JJ is playing at Steve’s Guitars.”

Morgan leaves after Steve and I have a dinner with her.  The night is stalker free, as far as we know, and Morgan comes home early from her friend’s performance at the guitar store.  She is calm, and I am happy deep down inside that the move in the works is the right thing to do.

Steve and I go to sleep, confident that we have made the right choice, and we will soon put all this nonsense of stalkers, and noises in the night behind us.  We were always having wishful thinking that this stalker will find another obsession and go away.

But you all know how wrong we were…
