That\u2019s not right, is it?<\/p>\n<p>Here goes &#8211; from Glenwood Springs, Colorado to, Aspen, Colorado it is 40 miles, less than an hour\u2019s drive, even with some weather.\u00a0 Over those forty miles you will encounter 9 different law enforcement districts.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"1\">\n<li>Glenwood Springs Police Department<\/li>\n<li>Garfield County Sheriff\u2019s Department<\/li>\n<li>Carbondale Police Department<\/li>\n<li>Garfield County Sheriff\u2019s Department again, but I\u2019ve only counted them once<\/li>\n<li>Eagle County Sheriff\u2019s Department<\/li>\n<li>Basalt Police Department<\/li>\n<li>Pitkin County Sheriff\u2019s Department<\/li>\n<li>Snowmass Village Police Department<\/li>\n<li>Pitkin County Sheriff\u2019s Department again, only counted once<\/li>\n<li>Aspen Police Department<\/li>\n<li>Colorado State Patrol, patrolling the common thread of State Highway 82<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Now would you think, for one second, that these 9 different agencies share their information on ongoing stalking incidents?\u00a0 Well. define share would be my answer, our detective told us he would have to call each agency individually, get the correct officer on the phone, wait for him to manually review records, then wait for an answer, AN AMOUNT OF TIME he simply did not have.\u00a0 So it was never done.\u00a0 Exactly how is this making our valley a safer place?\u00a0 We live in a world where if I wish to, I can share my current location on the face of the earth in real time with the rest of the world.\u00a0 If you even try to tell me how impossible it would be to share information about stalking incidents \u2013 well don\u2019t even try, I know it can be done.<\/p>\n<p>And then it gets worse, not only do they not share, they diffuse, whenever possible.\u00a0 Confusing at first I admit, so here is a recent example:<\/p>\n<p>All of Morgan\u2019s gold jewelry was missing the day her body was discovered. MISSING as in GONE, and in order for this to be \u201cinvestigated\u201c, I had to have a concise list of everything, pictures would be even better.\u00a0\u00a0 So I made the list, gave it to our detective.\u00a0 Steve would not let me review 50,000 pictures of Morgan for any that showed her wearing her jewelry, he said it was far too emotional for me. \u00a0I won\u2019t share what he actually had to say about anyone who could have really requested this of me, but, trust me, it wasn\u2019t complimentary.<\/p>\n<p>So low and behold Keenan VenGInkel is arrested in Glenwood Springs just weeks after Morgan\u2019s murder by the Glenwood Springs Police Department on a warrant stemming from a cache of gold jewelry he had recently sold at a, \u201cCash for Gold\u201d store in Glenwood Springs.<\/p>\n<p>And yes, it is true as has been reported, that when Keenan Vanginkel was pulled over in Glenwood Springs, for the sale of gold jewelry that had been stolen, he was handcuffed, and taken to jail, his car was then searched and illegal drugs, prepackaged for sale, were discovered, among other things.\u00a0 But that is for others to deal with.<\/p>\n<p>Of course the detectives investigating Morgan\u2019s Felony Stalking, and now death have no knowledge of this arrest for selling stolen jewelry, merely have the list of jewelry that is missing from Morgan that I have given them.\u00a0 I tell Steve what is happening, and he immediately visits a friend of his who also has a, &#8220;Cash for Gold\u201d service. \u00a0Steve asks him how it works, would there be records?\u00a0 And guess what, at Steve\u2019s friend\u2019s operation, they photograph every piece of jewelry and the person selling it, <strong>it\u2019s a state law<\/strong>, all regulated.\u00a0 Steve\u2019s friend looks at a picture of K, supplied by our Detective Rob. and does not recognize him.<\/p>\n<p>Once Detective Rob finishes with apologizing for how they had no idea this had happened, explains again the no sharing situation, Steve shares with Detective Rob what he has already found out about Cash for Gold operations, but Rob is not familiar with the actual laws related to \u201cCash for Gold\u201d and Detective Rob wonders if Steve can ask his friend for a copy of the laws.\u00a0 I swear this is the truth!\u00a0 And then Steve can not immediately get a hold of his friend, so he just goes online to Lexis Nexis Law and copies the Colorado laws for Detective Rob, and then emailed him everything he needed to know.\u00a0 Steve tells Detective Rob, we would like to see the pictures of all of the jewelry that was recovered on the long shot that we can identify any pieces that belonged to Morgan.<\/p>\n<p>Detective Rob does not do this, he says, once again, the honest truth, \u201cThis would be the worst example of good police work, to just show you the pictures.\u201d\u00a0 Steve hangs up and looks at me, &#8220;I wonder if the term &#8211; photo line up &#8211; has any meaning to him?&#8221; \u00a0Detective Rob does nothing, but we are getting all too familiar with this disturbing trend by now.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; \u00a0Just wait until I get the OK to release all of the potential evidence in Morgan\u2019s case \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0that was never followed up on, you will be sickened, I assure you\u2026<\/p>\n<p>So Steve immediately has another plan, he sends me to Glenwood Springs to talk with the arresting officer, to find out if he will show me the photos of the jewelry, and we can just put that issue to rest.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m sorry but, I think if the Sheriff\u2019s prime suspect (who is no longer a suspect or they never had a suspect, forgive me I am getting a little confused here, Detective Rob needs to make up his mind) is arrested selling gold jewelry days after your daughter was murdered and all of her jewelry is missing on the same day, isn\u2019t it a point that needs to be investigated? Or to quote Whoopie Goldberg, \u201cAm I just missing something here?\u201c<\/p>\n<p>So I am in Glenwood Springs, and I ask about the arrest report at the Police Department, they \u201ccan\u2019t find it\u201d and send me to the District Attorney\u2019s Office, who will certainly have it. They can\u2019t seem to find it either, but they do think it\u2019s a little strange, can\u2019t find any records and all.\u00a0 But they made me fill out a form to include all my personal information, saying an Investigator will get in touch with me.\u00a0 I did fill out the paper and said to the woman, \u201cBut this is a public record isn\u2019t it?&#8221; \u00a0She told me yes it is but you have to fill this out anyway, before you can have it.\u00a0 But, they don\u2019t even have it! \u00a0And they never call me later to give it to me! \u00a0So I go back to the Police Department, and now they are angry.\u00a0 I am told my Detective from the Sheriff\u2019s department has to handle this and they can\u2019t talk to me anymore.\u00a0 Have you ever had that feeling you have just been run in a complete circle for nothing? \u00a0Well that is exactly how I felt right at that moment.<\/p>\n<p>I know this ended up being a little long winded, but I did try to be as brief as possible, and do you see how I entered the \u201cCombined Courts\u201d building here to follow up on a crime I had reported, related to the death of my daughter (no official cause yet), and I received the royal run around, That is what I mean by diffuse.\u00a0 Everyone just diffused their responsibility on someone else, and the next person in line did the same.\u00a0 An endless circle, perpetual motion, only sadly, criminals are exchanging high fives right about now.<\/p>\n<p>Then, I asked Detective Rob about Morgan\u2019s jewelry again weeks after this day and he said, &#8220;I told Steve you have to give me pictures of them or at least a list.&#8221; \u00a0Remember what my daughter-in-law said the other day about Steve and I keeping records, I might just have recorded on paper what I told him about the jewelry earlier!<\/p>\n<p>Love you all, and in the spirit of Morgan, I wish only for solutions to this current system that lets criminals flourish, and innocent women die. \u00a0It is just denial to ignore it or fashion some other name for it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There is a fact that works against the innocent people of the Roaring Fork Valley.\u00a0 Endangers them all, without anyone even realizing it is taking place &#8211; every single day.\u00a0 I wanted to share this little secret with you, and &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/morgansstalking.com\/?p=1068\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":88894,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[1],"tags":[87,89,32,980,90,23,17,88],"class_list":["post-1068","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-stalking","tag-dirty-little-secrets","tag-ideas-to-help-end-stalking","tag-morgan","tag-morgan-ingram","tag-morgan-ingrams-blog","tag-morgans-blog","tag-morgans-stalking","tag-stopping-stalkers"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p2wvjS-he","jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":5016,"url":"https:\/\/morgansstalking.com\/?p=5016","url_meta":{"origin":1068,"position":0},"title":"Yarn &#038; needles&#8230;thinking of you Morgan!","author":"Toni Ingram","date":"November 13, 2014","format":false,"excerpt":"","rel":"","context":"In &quot;Morgan's Investigation&quot;","block_context":{"text":"Morgan's Investigation","link":"https:\/\/morgansstalking.com\/?cat=490"},"img":{"alt_text":"4519040_Gzj2DyHe_c","src":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/morgansstalking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/4519040_Gzj2DyHe_c-231x300.jpg?resize=350%2C200&ssl=1","width":350,"height":200},"classes":[]},{"id":5021,"url":"https:\/\/morgansstalking.com\/?p=5021","url_meta":{"origin":1068,"position":1},"title":"Please check out https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/morgansstalking for more stalking information","author":"Toni Ingram","date":"November 13, 2014","format":false,"excerpt":"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/morgansstalking","rel":"","context":"In &quot;Morgan's Investigation&quot;","block_context":{"text":"Morgan's Investigation","link":"https:\/\/morgansstalking.com\/?cat=490"},"img":{"alt_text":"","src":"","width":0,"height":0},"classes":[]},{"id":5031,"url":"https:\/\/morgansstalking.com\/?p=5031","url_meta":{"origin":1068,"position":2},"title":"Peanut Butter Brownie Bites","author":"Toni Ingram","date":"November 16, 2014","format":false,"excerpt":"Morgan loved to bake \"goodies\" in the kitchen Peanut Butter Brownie Bites 1 box of your favorite brownie mix 1\/2- 1- cup peanut butter chips 1\/2-1- cup semi-sweet chocolate chips 1\/2 cup creamy peanut butter Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
