    This is really ridiculous it does not matter what your doing uin your life you have no right to hurt someone, take there life and then disrespect there body in the way she was. I am so sick to my stomach by what has happen. I am angry that there are those type of people in the world.My God have mercy on there souls.

  3. Shauncey Says:

    I’ve never heard of someone being so high on crack that they start cutting off people’s body parts, but I know there’s a first time for everything. This loser and his buddies killed this poor woman while his son was at home. Unbelieveable. Ibonne died a horrible horrible tragic death. No one deserves to die the way she did, no one. When I read what happened to her my stomach immediately turned, I literally wanted to throw up. These bastards should be found guilty as quickly as possible and executed. They are not fit to live among us. God bless you Ibonne.
    **at least this murdering son-of-a-bitch raised a decent son, with morals, who wouldn’t go along with his sick murder plan. Thank the Lord for that. That was very brave for him to do that.***

  4. Melissa Z. Says:

    To Dana in the post left above; I hope that God does not have mercy on those druggie, murdering punks that so gruesomely murdered a young mother. I really wish that their was “eye for an eye” type of justice and that they could get exactly play for play what they so grossly inflicted on Ibonne. Hopefully that will happen in prison to them because prison is too good of a thing for them.

  5. Maxey Says:

    These excuses for humna beings weren’t cutting her up for pleasure, it was all about them covering their own tracks. The were making it where she could not be identified. Sick as it may seem, I still will never understand why they had to kill her. It appears to me, they KNEW what to do, like they had done it before. It also seems like the boy child had been use to that kind of enviroment AND why didn’t they just leave the house and call 911, again, thinking of themselves, covering their tracks. And to think they actually said ” they were DRIVING around smoking crack” OMG!
    This poor woman, no one deserves to treated with such disrespect. These folks have mo concious and I think they should be executed with NO contact, not TV, no free education, no books no nothing, period, no excuses. Ibonne was somebodys little girl. I see now why Jim’s X wife left him and I am sure she lost many an hour of sleep each time she had to send her son to stay with the father.
    My heart goes out to all that Loved Ibonne. I am so sorry.
    Christians rock:)

    Our hearts are hurting for all that loved her

  7. Mike Says:

    Shauncey & Melissa, you don’t know the first thing about the man who tried to protect his son, as well as having his son call the police while he stood guard at the barricaded bedroom door to make sure those nut jobs didn’t get to his son. May you some day have someone judge you wrongly & hastily when you are innocent, just so you know what it feels like.

    He tried to help Ziegler out by temporarily giving him a place to stay, but Ziegler turned out to be an untrustworthy person who didn’t appreciate the help he received. Ziegler took advantage of Matisi’s kindness by leaving in his truck when Matisi & his son were ASLEEP, then picking up 2 people Matisi did not know & bringing them back to the house WITHOUT PERMISSION. Matisi ordered them to leave when he was awakened by loud music, but they did not comply. When Matisi heard suspicious sounds, he had his son call police while he guarded the door. For that he deserves condemnation from the likes of YOU??? I think not.

    Maxey, you want to talk about excuses? YOU are a POOR EXCUSE for a Christian. IF you had TRULY accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord & Savior, you would not have posted the kind of drivel that you did. You don’t know all the details of his marriage with his ex-wife, nor do you know all the facts in this case. You are not fit to judge. You should be praying for ALL of them, but instead you are proving just what a hypocritical, judgemental, unchristian little shrew you are. I WILL be praying for God to open your eyes & to enable you to grow in wisdom, mercy, & love, just as He desires for all of us to do.

  8. David Vasquez Says:

    Hi read your blog and found it interesting. I am a cousin of Eric’s and felt compelled to comment, that although I have not seen my cousin for many many years since I left Texas. I felt sorry for him that he let drugs rule his life and he went down a road that he can never get off of. I feel terribly sorry for the girl he murdered no matter who the press portrays her as, she did not deserve to die and her little girl will never know her mother except for what she digs up in the media and then she will read how brutally tortured her mother was. I would say rotting in hell is too good for my cousin. That side of my family has always been troubled.

  9. Shauncey Says:

    Mike,
    So you expect us to believe that James had nothing whatsoever to do with Ibonne’s death? She was dismembered in his house, but he was clueless? Yeah, ok. You lay down with dogs, you get up with fleas. Maybe your easily persuaded to fall for bullshit, but I’m not. He “barricaded the room door so they wouldn’t get to his son”. Ok. So why is he in jail? And if he’s such a stand up dad, why the hell did he have these assholes around his son?? Sorry, I’m just not buying it. He can pull the wool over YOUR eyes, obviously, but not MINE.

  10. Shauncey Says:

    And why would you say that to Maxey? YOUR opinions are no more important than hers. You stated, “You should be praying for all of them, but instead you are proving”….yada yada yada. Who the hell are you to tell her how to feel? And why the hell should she be praying for someone who was involved in a crime as heinous as this? You have some nerve. Tell you what. Why don’t you get down on YOUR kness and pray for him? And while your at it, thank the Lord that it wasn’t YOUR daughter, sister or mother that these assholes did this to.

  11. Lavonna Says:

    God Bless this child’s family. These sick, evil men need to die.

    Mike,
    I am going to add to my friend Shauncey’s comments!! What do you mean ‘by the likes of you” Excuse us, but she has not killed anyone.. She is a warm, compassionate woman who can speak her mind same as the rest of us and I take offense at your comment to her and to Maxey(hello Maxey)
    I think that if you (mike) are a Christian you need to be praying to God to take that ugliness out of your heart.

  12. Mike Says:

    Well Shauncey, first of all, I am addressing the ugliness & smug self righteousness that you & the others have been exhibiting in your posts here. If you find my responses to be unpleasant, I suggest you take a good long look in a mirror first.

    Secondly, the only one “falling for BS”, as you put it, is you & any other fools who believe just bits & pieces of information put out by the media just because they are sensational, & that is what sells newspapers & attracts viewers. If you were interested in the whole truth, you would not be so foolish as to rush to judgement, then feebly try to defend your position, as you are doing.

    Thirdly, Maxey claims to supposedly be a Christian, yet her judgementalism & lack of compassion expose her for the fraud she is. I did not tell her how to feel, but I did confront her on her obviously unchristian statements & attitude, as evidenced in her post.

    Fourthly, not that it’s any of your business, but I HAVE been praying for ALL those involved in this situation. Have you? Has Maxey? If not, neither you nor she have any room to talk, period.

    Lavonna, speaking your mind is one thing. Any worldly person can do that. Speaking your mind as Christ would have you to do, however, is another. Is He or is He not the source of the love, compassion, & understanding that is supposed to flow out of a genuine Christian’s life? Where does the Bible say, anywhere, that it is OK to rush to judgement & condemn others without even knowing all the facts? Can you tell me? Can you give me chapter & verse where He condones or advises Christians to do such a thing? God is a God of mercy and justice, & rushing to judgement does not fall into either category. Warm compassionate truly Christian women do not do such things. I know because I have known some who were, as well as many who weren’t.

  13. Bob Says:

    How can they keep breaking the law and then get out of Jail again and again and again

  14. Shauncey Says:

    Mike,
    Your addressing the “ugliness and smug self righteousiness”. Your obviously saying that because James is your friend, and thats ok. I won’t bite on your comment, and I don’t give a shit about your opinion of me. What I do care about is someone paying for brutally murdering Ibonne, and your “friend” James is smack dab in the middle of it. For the record, your not it’s not my business who you pray for, I don’t give 10 damns. But while your down on your sorry ass knees, do you think you could say a prayer for Ibonne? I mean, she is the victim here. Matter of fact, you really have some nerves to come here talking about “Christian ways”, when not ONE time did you even mention Ibonne. Your defending suspects in a heinous murder such as this, at the same time trying to preach religion? Give me a break. You go find a mirror and take a good look at yourself. I look in the mirror everyday, and I love what I see, and the person that I am. What about you?

  15. Mike Says:

    Shauncey, let’s get something straight right her & right now. If you want to have the gall to talk to ME about smug self-righteousness, I strongly suggest you go back & read ALL of your posts, starting with the VERY FIRST ONE you posted here

    If I’m preaching ANYTHING, it’s GETTING ALL THE FACTS BEFORE RUSHING TO JUDGEMENT, not that I would expect you to bother to actually take the time to read & think about what you have posted as well as others.

    As for me, while I do pray, I’m more or less on the fence regarding “organized religion”, but I’ll tell you one thing: those who CLAIM to be Christians (such as little miss “Christians rock” Maxey) are held to a HIGHER STANDARD, & deservedly so. I’ll tell you one thing right now: it’s people like her who have caused me to question whether or not a faith like hers is worth pursuing. I have at times studied the Bible & what it says, as well as many other books, & frankly, her behavior did not align with what she purports herself to believe.

    As for you, it is quite obvious that the only faith you have is in yourself, your opinion, & your mouth, period. I have taken the time to pray forALL those involved in this situation, INCLUDING IBONNE & HER FAMILY. Can you say the same? If not, you have nothing to say to me that is worth considering, period end of sentence. If you love what you see in the mirror (while you jump to conclusions & condemn others without all the facts), then it is only because you are full of yourself & cannot be bothered to take the time to try to put yourself in the place of ALL others in the situation, not just the victim. That is your problem, not mine, but I will not sit idly by whilst poorly informed people such as yourself rush to judgement of others.

  16. Lavonna Says:

    Wee doggies….. Talk about showing true colors here Mikey. In one sentence you are almost preaching to us of Jesus Christ and the next sentence you are doing what you are berating us for.. These are your judgmental words

    ” Maxey, you want to talk about excuses? YOU are a POOR EXCUSE for a Christian. IF you had TRULY accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord & Savior, you would not have posted the kind of drivel that you did”.

    To me you ask this’
    Where does the Bible say, anywhere, that it is OK to rush to judgment & condemn others without even knowing all the facts? Can you tell me? Can you give me?”

    No wonder faith is hard for you, you tell us not to judge and even question almost demanding for me to show you the chapter and verse. I can give you this much…………. READ IT AND LEARN TO STOP BEING A HYPORCIATE… if you’re going to talk the talk then walk the walk too and stop being a jerk. OH and get some friends who aren’t in the middle of getting in trouble for murder.

  17. Mike Says:

    Tell me something, o wise Lavonna, what is a HYPORCIATE? Maybe you might want to learn to slow down just a wee bit if you think you might have some type of point to make. Maybe you need to not only learn to read, but learn to type while you’re at it. Just a thought there, sweetheart.

    If a person such as Maxey wants to make some hypocritical, judgemental statements, followed by her little comment about “Christians rock”, it shows just how little she knows about being one. Unless you want to let her step forward & deal with the fact that since SHE wanted to come off as some sort of a Christian (which her post certainly does not seem to indicate), YOU have nothing to say towards ME on that particular issue.

    Aside from that, I asked you a very specific question, but instead of sensibly addressing that question, you have tried to

    A.) Take up HER cause, which it is not YOUR place to do, and

    B.) Call me names instead of answering my very direct question, which just proves that you don’t have a leg to stand on.

    After all of that, you’ve proven that you, like countless others, are willing to swallow whatever the media (which is filled with human beings who make mistakes, just like the rest of us do) feeds you, instead of endeavoring to obtain ALL of the facts before rendering judgement. That in & of itself makes your perspective biased right from the start, which puts you in the same category with the others who have done the same thing.

    I can only hope that you or someone you care about are never on the other side of a situation where people without all the facts make harsh, negative judgements like that without taking the time to get all the facts straight. If you had ever experienced anything like that, then maybe, just maybe, you might actually exhibit a little more understanding, & a little less condemnation.

  18. Mike Says:

    BTW Lavonna, if you were wrongfully accused of murder, exactly how many of your friends would want to associate with or defend YOU, huh?

  19. Lavonna Says:

    Sorry Sweetheart, so maybe I spelled Hypocrite wrong. Never said I was perfect but to answer your question is a Hypocrite is you! You smart off about judging and then you judge her for being a Christian. Who are you to tell her what kind a Christian she is? YOU ARE NOT PERFECT.
    I answered your question you’re just not wanting to read the word for yourself “ye of little faith” (that came from your own mouth)

    I saw NO place in Maxey’s comment of her judging anyone, you didn’t like what she said and jumped on it and then you tell me that I don’t have a place to take up her cause.. Well, hate to tell you this but I can take up for anyone that I want to :-) and I wanted to.
    I don’t know you and frankly you’re the type of person that I wouldn’t want to know because you are a mean, hateful man who doesn’t like what people have to say about your friends.

  20. Mike Says:

    OK Lavonna, once again you have weakly attempted to avoid answering my question about where in the Bible being critical & judgemental is advocated or encouraged (because the only answer is “it isn’t, period”, but you’re unwilling to acknowledge that fact). The simple fact is that it is the exact OPPOSITE behavior which is encouraged. Too bad you were so unwilling to just swallow your pride & admiit it. I can see you & Maxey have a lot in common.

    Who am I to tell her what kind of Christian she is? Someone who knows the difference. Any REAL Christian would realize their error & ask forgiveness; the fact that she has not speaks VOLUMES about the kind of Christian she is (not).

    The pride that you & Maxey have exhibited is NOT a Christian value, honey. HUMILITY is, but not pridefulness. What I hate is ignorance such as has been exhibited by you & Maxey, although I do not hate either one of you as people. Wouldn’t little miss Maxey agree that the Bible teaches the followers of Jesus to hate the sin but love the sinner? She would if she was honest, & a REAL Christian.

    You saw NO place in Maxey’s comment where she judged someone? Are you blind, or what??

    How about this: “These excuses for human beings” ? Or this: “I see now why Jim’s X wife left him and I am sure she lost many an hour of sleep each time she had to send her son to stay with the father” ?

    If those are not judgemental statements, nothing is. As I said, to post what she did & then put at the end “Christians rock” makes her a huge hypocrite. Jesus sacrificed Himself for people like them, you me, & even Maxey, but little miss Maxey (whose battle you continue to fight, even though it is not your place to do so; she is perfectly able to respond to any post in this thread, unlike Mr. Matisi) seemed to forget all about that when she posted.

    I strongly suggest you work on your skills of reading comprehension or observance prior to attempting to defend someone whose own words so obviously condemn her. She doesn’t know Mr. Matisi, his ex-wife, or what happened in that house that night. That in & of itself precludes her having the ability to accurately speak to any of those issues, period. I stand by what I said regarding the FACT that the way in which she posted does NOT demonstrate that she is a Christian, rather, far from it.

  21. Lavonna Says:

    First of all, I am starting to take offense with your holier than thou attitude of yours. You have a lot of nerve to keep on running your big pie hole on our Christian attitude when if you were such a biblical scholar then why don’t you stop and think of what Jesus said on “judge not, lest ye be judged by the same works” right now I don’t have time to find it but you can find it in Matthew, Mark, Luke and John but try Matthew 24.. (That sounds about right).
    Let me tell you that you should stop suggesting any thing to me because your unchristian attitude makes me want to throw up. Maxey has the right to voice her opinion but you are just too high up on your throne to understand it and then you get all ticked off and start saying we are not true Christians.
    You don’t know if she knows him, she could have met both of them at the local Kroger while standing in line behind you while you were checking out telling everyone how holy you are. I bet you think you can walk on water, or turn the water into wine. You act like you walk hand in hand with Christ Jesus but I see you for who you are.. A hypocrite.

    You said that “”The pride that you & Maxey have exhibited is NOT a Christian value, honey. HUMILITY is, but not pridefulness. What I hate is ignorance such as has been exhibited by you & Maxey, although I do not hate either one of you as people.”"
    YOU think that because you think that we are not Christians really mean a lot and I could care less if you did hate me, Not like I am losing a friend and you have no idea of what is in my heart so I strongly suggest that you work on your skills of learning to keep you big mouth shut and stop telling me what to do or telling me how you are so much better than us and we are not true Christians because one day that could come back to bite you in the butt.

    One more thing: I don’t know them either but I would say that it is a good thing she got smart and got out of there because who knows could have been her that was next.

  22. Mike Says:

    “Running my big pie hole”? Oh yeah, that’s a real Christian thing to say. You tell me I don’t know what’s in your heart, but I tell you that what’s in your heart is all to obvious & evident by what you post. Instead of showing any humility whatsoever & admitting you were wrong, you are becoming increasingly obstinate in your unwillingness to exemplify ANY Christian qualities whatsoever. Instead, you are becoming more & more shrill in your responses, which only goes to prove the point I have made here all along.

    If you want to tell me something about a verse which you are either too unknowledgeable or too lazy to look up, that is not MY problem, that is YOURS. The simple fact is that little miss Maxey made judgemental statements, & you apparently want to defend her supposed “right” to do so (although she is SUPPOSEDLY a Christian, & therefore not supposed to do that if she is truly following her faith). All that does is let me know that you don’t believe the teachings of the Bible either, otherwise you’d acknowledge just that ONE LITTLE TRUTH, which you are now fighting very desperately to try to keep from doing.

    Even if I said nothing, if you actually had Christ in your heart, as opposed to just an approximate idea of where a particular verse from the Bible “may be”, then your conscience would move you to admit where you’ve been wrong.

    Now you want to “bet” & speculate about what I think? Oh, that’s rich. Everything I have stated about you & Maxey have been derived DIRECTLY FROM WHAT YOU HAVE POSTED; you have proven what is in your heart, & it’s not anything resembling faith in Christ, sister. I, on the other hand, do not act like anything. I do, however, state my point of view and any questions I have very clearly. It’s just a real shame that you continue to writhe & struggle to not deal with what is quite plainly right in front of you. The more you fight, the more afraid of facing the truth you continue to show yourself to be.

    Work on keeping my big mouth shut? Girl, you make make laugh. That statement alone shows what’s in your heart, much less all of the other insults & incorrect speculations you & your little friend have made. As far as being better? I’d rather be a person who can admit my own imperfections & mistakes than to be someone like you who, even when confronted directly, continues to try to run away from the truth. If or when you ever develop any kind of real faith, you will not do so, but you will deal with things in a much more mature manner, LIKE ACTUALLY FACING UP TO IT.

    I will say this again, a little more slowly, so that this time maybe even YOU can get it:

    MAXEY is the one who came in here making judgemental statements, THEN posting “Christians rock”, as though she thinks herself to be one.

    There, can you finally comprehend that this time? Up until that point, faith or lack thereof was not even a topic of discussion. Since SHE wanted to pretend she was one, she needed to be reminded that her conduct was unbecoming someone who supposedly follows Jesus Christ & his teachings. Can you finally understand this simple concept? I should not have to keep spelling it out for you in post after post. If your comprehension was what it should be, you’d have gotten it the FIRST time.

    Also BTW, if you think you have a point to make, you might want to consider avoiding run-on sentences & the like. It makes it more difficult (although not impossible) for those of us who actually care about understanding others & responding point by point to what has been posted. Just a thought.

  23. Lavonna Says:

    What is wrong with saying shut your pie hole? Do you not eat pie? You mouth is a big hole, so it is a pie hole. You can see what is in my heart at the moment because you truly get on my nerves with your holier than thou perfection. You know what else? I don’t think you are a true Christian either, I think you are one of those who want people to think you are so Godly when all you have done is judged me and Maxey and some of the others on here. You can do that all you want but that doesn’t change the fact that you are not a Christian (feel good to be judged?)
    Also, as for being too lazy I wasn’t home to look it up, I had taken my girls and my nieces swimming and was at my sister’s waiting on them to change when I wrote that but I am home now and I did look it up. It is in Matthew 7 verse 1 but I SUGGEST that you read verse 1-6… Maybe it will sink in if you read it slowly, like you said with your Jesus Christ attitude when you wrote this “I will say this again, a little more slowly, so that this time maybe even YOU can get it”. WOW that was so like Christ Jesus wasn’t it? (not)

    Honey, I actually understood you the first time, I am not an ignorant person but I am not wrong so why admit something that I’m not. She never judged you.. You judged us. She was voicing her opinion and at the end of her comments she wrote ‘Christians Rocks’ and that made you mad.
    You first started on Shauncey and Melissa because you didn’t like their comments and then you threw Maxey’s name in it.
    This blog is not for the victims not the stupid monsters who cut people up nor is it for their friends to come on here and argue with those who feel sorry for this child. Not one time have you expressed any sympathy for her or her family so why don’t you just go away and go eat a piece of pie?
    This space is for Ibonne not for your monster friends and your pretense of being a Christian.

  24. Mike Says:

    Lavonna, first off, why would you have a problem with using the word “mouth”? If you were not continuing to be combative, then you would have no reason to use any other word.

    Also, just exactly how inobservant are you? I mean seriously, you can’t possibly have gone back & read through every post here or else you’d have actually seen where I posted this: “Fourthly, not that it’s any of your business, but I HAVE been praying for ALL those involved in this situation.” (In case you can’t figure it out, that includes Ibonne & her family, just FYI.)

    You shouyld try using your powers of observation FIRST before trying to lamely attack someone by false allegations.

    Maxey DID judge ALL who were in the house, including the homeowner who did not do anything but try to help an unappreciative Mr. Ziegler by allowing him to stay there temporarily, & protect his own son when that situation arose.

    Keep on denying the truth about your being wrong, but it is there in print, whether you EVER possess the maturity to admit it or not. Anyone with any sense whatsoever can see it simply by reading. The more you attempt to deny it, the more foolish you make yourself look. Whatever you do, don’t slow down, read through everything & then thinki about it. God forbid you should do that, or your opinion might actually change. No, just keep letting your pride push you forward with more of your misguided tirades.

    I confronted a hypoChristian (Maxey) when SHE unfairly judged others. If you don’t like it, that’s your problem, not mine. I will not, however sit idly by while people who lack all the necessary information sit pompously in judgement of a man who cannot defend himself at this time.

    This blog is also not for you to continue being a contentious woman on your crusade of “protecting the rights of others to foolishly rush to judgement” (including yourself), yet that is what you seem to be turning it into. So be it. It is what it is.

  27. Mike Says:

    Well well well, guess what? A grand jury convened, & found that Mr. Matisi should be released, because he was INNOCENT, just like I said all along, because I KNEW more FACTS about the case, instead of just the bits & pieces reported in the headlines. Let this be a lesson to those of you who wish to foolishly rush to judgement of others without having all the facts. For those of you who were guilty of that, you are welcome to form a line to receive your serving of crow. (This means YOU, Maxey, Shauncey, & Lavonna.) Bon appetit!

    Whether or not any of you ever possess the courage & maturity to admit you were wrong (even to yourselves, much less me or anybody else), the truth speaks for itself. Now those who were TRULY involved will have to face the legal consequences for what THEY (not Mr. Matisi) did, while he is able to walk out a FREE MAN because the TRUTH prevailed, not a bunch of foolish opinions & hearsay from people who don’t know any better. Thank God that the people on that grand jury understood the importance of the law, & how someone should not even be tried, much less convicted, unless the FACTS AND EVIDENCE show otherwise.

    Anyone who decides a case solely on news headlines is a very foolish person. May you all learn to make wiser decisions in the future. While you’re at it, maybe you could try learning to have the humility to admit when you’re wrong, too.
