Listen to the Forest…Morgan did

listentotheforest

Morgan loved being in nature.  She was able to observe and cherish everything around her, and I believe this was a blessing.  It showed me exactly the kind of soul she was ever since she was a tiny child.  Even after becoming a young woman she would still bend down to pluck a little fuzzy dandelion that had gone to seed.  She would always smile, close her eyes, make a wish and blow…the wind would catch the seeds and they would gently fly away.   Her little niece still gets excited when she see a fuzzy dandelion and mimics the same thing her Aunt Gigi (Morgan) taught her.

Sometimes she would look up into the sky, and with a dreamy voice she would ask me to look up to see the beautiful clouds.  Sometimes she would get excited when it would start to rain…she would run outside to feel and smell the downpour coming from the Heavens above.  She would always look out the window from the passenger seat while I was driving and tell me to look at Mt. Sopris, because every day the mountain changed it’s beauty.

When she hiked into the forest Morgan was always looking to see a fox or deer, as she quietly walked the trails.  She loved to just lie on the ground, close her eyes, listen to and feel the wind.  Putting her bare feet in every river she came upon was mandatory for her.  Morgan was a child of nature, she fed her soul with all the gifts that nature had to offer.  I believe that is why she became such an avid photographer.  She wanted others to “see” and experience what she did every day, and she succeeded.  I am grateful for all the wonderful pictures Morgan left behind, as well as the many things she taught us all about what is truly important in life. Finding your true purpose, seeing and being a part of all the beauty around you and never, ever taking one moment in your life for granted.  Always tell the ones you love, every day, how much you love them – Morgan always did, and for that I am grateful as well.

Mirror, Mirror: Miss you Morgan…

Words from beyond…

cloudyroad I woke up this morning with an image being shown to me (I don’t want to reveal that image right now) along with a “feeling of being told something.”  The something I was being told was, “—— (I will leave out the name, but that person knows who I am referring to), Heaven and earth are coming for you, as well as those who helped you, and are still helping you – there is no where you can hide.”  To me this meant that the truth will be revealed with help from this dimension, as well as another.

This came through to me as a strong, powerful statement.  Whether or not you believe in divine intervention or not doesn’t change the fact that this really did happen, I did not make it up and it was powerful enough of a “vision” or message for me to feel the need to post about it.

Many people do not believe – they are skeptic and their dogmas, and fear get in the way, but most people do dream and sometimes they remember their dreams or visions.  I believe when you are in a “dream state” it is a much easier state for you to receive messages.

The trinity cross is a beautiful cross that I wear quite often ever since a dear friend gave it to me.  That design is from my friend’s father who lived in Switzerland years ago before his death.  When she gave it to me she said that the meaning of the cross is to, “Ask, Believe, and Receive.”  The cross lies right over your heart chakras and it always reminds me to ask, believe, and receive.  I’m sure you already know what I have asked for daily since the very morning Morgan passed…an investigation into her suspicious death.  Still to this day, 3 years later it hasn’t happened, but I know (I do believe) it will happen.  I have asked for an investigation to be opened, I believe it will happen and there will be arrests made, and I know there will be justice for Morgan.  I also believe when all this comes to pass that many changes on many different levels will happen…many other potential victims will never have to become victims and the world will be a little better because people believed in justice and fought for it.

 

 

 

More than 200,000 cold cases since 1980

Please click on the link below to read this article.  What an eye opener!

This is so very true!  Morgan’s murder was staged and ruled as natural causes for 8 months, then changed to a suicide…both manners of death were wrong, but it has caused her case to not even be considered a cold case and kept her suspicious death from being investigated. So the bottom line is that Morgan’s case is one of the many cases that is not included in the huge number mentioned below when it comes to statistics on cold cases.

I believe this is one of the reasons that there are so many unresolved cold cases in this nation.  It’s hard to believe, but it does happen – there are many murders, like Morgan’s, that are listed as suicide, accidental or undetermined and then never investigated.  This is not justice for innocent victims.  This is why some murderers are able to become serial murderers.

More than 200,000 cold case homicides since 1980. However, this number does not include murders where the earmarks of staging were missed and where the cases were ruled, suicide, accident, or undetermined.

Today We Honor Martin Luther King, Jr.

“Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.” – Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr.

In King’s 1963 “Letter from a Birmingham Jail” he promoted non-violent civil disobedience and urgency in the Civil Rights advancement.  His words are still true today when it comes to ANY injustice.  I like to print his quote at the end of my emails to remind people of the importance to really care about our fellow human beings.

There has been an injustice done to our daughter Morgan.  Morgan was a victim of a felony stalking for 4 months, she was found dead under “suspicious circumstances” (the sheriff’s words – not mine), and her body was taken away for an autopsy.  That same morning her lead felony stalking detective told us her stalker had nothing to do with her death.  He could not have known that at the time so why did he say it?  The coroner’s office took her body away for an autopsy.  While waiting for the results of her autopsy I truly believed the sheriffs were investigating her suspicious death.  I asked what will happen if the autopsy shows she was murdered.  I was told that if that happened another detective would be assigned to the case.  So in the meantime unbeknownst to me there was no investigation into her suspicious death – why?

Then 18 days later the forensic pathologist stated Morgan died a “natural death” – I asked how could that be?  Morgan was an extremely healthy 20 year old…a healthy 20 year old with a predatory stalker that was escalating his presence.  So then at that time the sheriffs said there would be NO investigation into her “suspicious” death BECAUSE the Coroner had decided she died a “natural death.”

For the next 6 – 7 months forensic experts, along with Morgan’s doctors, tried to explain to the forensic pathologist that Morgan did not die a “natural” death.  After reviewing her medical records, the postmortem report, all toxicology results, etc. they said Morgan died from foul play and suggested her case should be investigated.  At that point the forensic pathologist threatened me that he did not want the opinions of any other experts and if he wanted to he could change her “manner of death” to suicide.  Then 8 months after Morgan’s death the forensic pathologist for Garfield County along with the coroner did just that…they changed her manner of death to “suicide.”

Getting angry is fine who wouldn’t be outraged, but how do we really make changes to a system that is broken?

Cases, like Morgan’s, that are swept under the rug are caught in a kind of trap, a trap created because of the cracks in our legal system.  Solving murder cases, when a coroner says the victim died from a natural death, accidental death, or suicide isn’t easy.  In order to obtain justice you have to be your own investigator.  You need to be methodical and spend as much time as you would on a 40 hour per week job.  Unfortunately in some cases like ours the family is the only one left that can put all the evidence together in order to obtain justice…and if justice is not found all that means is that someone has gotten away with murder, and that will always be an injustice, not only to the victims, and the victim’s family, but it is an injustice to all.

Thank you for following Morgan’s story through this blog.  I believe through knowledge and awareness of things that others are experiencing in this world people gain their strength.  I promise you our family has not given up, and never will.  It has been 3 long unimaginable years since Morgan’s suspicious death, and we have continued to gather and document all evidence in order to have her case investigated.  Morgan deserves justice – all victims of violent crime deserve justice.  Some people may not want her case opened…they do not want to visit the skeletons they have hidden in their closets, but soon the truth will come out and justice will be served.

I believe perseverance, as well as sheer tenacity will prevail, they will bring about positive results not only in Morgan’s case, but on so many other levels as well.  Wish us luck – 2015 should be an amazing year to right some wrongs and bring justice to many people!
