They can&#8217;t, because they have an agenda, even though it&#8217;s not the truth. \u00a0I&#8217;ve been assured it is a very small group of the same people and I believe they are related to the suspects &#8211; these people traverse the internet to sling mud at Morgan, and her memory. \u00a0If somehow Morgan was wrong then the stalker was not? \u00a0Or the people who helped him are not? \u00a0Victim blaming does happen and it is NEVER right. \u00a0To me it only shows how quilt riddled some are, to endlessly defame Morgan with lies, as if that will somehow change the criminal acts perpetrated upon her.<\/p>\n<p>I also understand that there are\u00a0bullies out there can&#8217;t resist attacking people over the internet, while hiding behind their computer screens, with their anonymous profiles, so I do not feel like it&#8217;s just happening only to Morgan and her case, because I see it happening to others who did nothing wrong except to be the victim of crime. \u00a0Morgan&#8217;s story attracted a lot of attention, and that was one of our goals, to raise awareness through her story and to be a voice for so many other victims. \u00a0So if speaking out for victims attracts some bullies then that is something I will live with.<\/p>\n<p>Morgan should not be gone from this world &#8211; she should be away at college studying law like she had planned. \u00a0But because of a predatory stalker, and an inept sheriff, along with her parents (Steve &amp; I) who didn&#8217;t understand that we had to get her away immediately in order to save her &#8211; \u00a0it became a perfect storm of life-changing proportions. \u00a0Saving others from that same fate is of such great importance to us now that a few bullies are not going to change anything.<\/p>\n<p>Bashing those who support Morgan, as so many have, is yet another ploy. \u00a0Both forensic professionals and private citizens stepping forward to help have all been accused of being paid &#8211; based upon what knowledge? \u00a0It is a lie, plain and simple, a lie which proves the desperation of the guilty. \u00a0Every person who has helped in Morgan&#8217;s case has done so from the generosity of their hearts. \u00a0And every one has helped without any charge. \u00a0Oh I have offered, in some instances, to pay for services, but every single time those helping Morgan have absolutely declined to be compensated in any way for their assistance. \u00a0In fact the answer I usually get from those helping is, &#8220;It&#8217;s just the right thing to do.&#8221; \u00a0When I hear this I always break down and cry&#8230;tears of intense gratitude.<\/p>\n<p>So why would you accuse people, trying to help achieve justice for a young woman so wronged, of being paid when they are not? \u00a0Why is it so important to attack good people? \u00a0That is the real question here, why is it so important to make up stories about Morgan and the search for justice? \u00a0Is it because they are afraid of the truth?<\/p>\n<p>I have decided to address some of the cruel and utterly untrue things people have said on the internet. \u00a0This will be part 1 of a 4 part series in which I will address some of these lies. Stay tuned &#8211; more to come. \u00a0And as always, thank you for listening.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; It&#8217;s so strange when I hear people tell me that they
