  • Comment policy

    Please remember when leaving a comment on my blog that all comments are subject to the blog owners discretion. I do believe in freedom of speech, however, that right is not absolute. Here are the rules: 1 - I will not tolerate hate filled speech, vulgar or derogatory remarks about a victim. I will remove comments that go against this. I will not remove comments just because they do not match my beliefs, in fact, I welcome them! However, that being said, I will remove those that I find offensive, argumentative just for the sake of starting an argument that does not add to the post, hate-filled speech, etc.
    2 - Please remember to not use all CAPS or capitalize the beginning letter of every single word or every other word, or use IM/text abbreviations (except like LOL). Please have respect for other readers and type words out. Not everyone is into that and it is inappropriate here. [examples: "cuzn" "tha" "dat" and so many more] Learn proper English! You should have learned it in school.
    3 - Your comments must be all in English.
    4 - I will also not allow Anonymous comments. This includes using anonymous, obviously fake email addresses (you@you.com, me@me.com, anonymous@yahoo.com, or fictional characters, etc.)
    5 - ALL COMMENTS LEFT BY COMMENTORS ARE THEIR OWN AND THEIR OPINIONS. THEY DO NOT CONSTITUTE FACTS. NOR IS THE BLOG OWNER RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYONE'S OPINIONS OR FEELINGS. STATEMENTS MADE AS COMMENTS ARE OPINIONS, GIVEN FREELY BY THE COMMENTORS.
    6 - You must be 18 years of age or older to comment.
    If you have a question or problem with this, please feel free to email me (there is a link to my email above).

Serial Killer: Carlton Gary “The Stocking Strangler”

remembering the victims

Victims
Marion Fisher, 40 (1975)
Gertrude Miller, (9/11/1977) – survived
Mary Fern Jackson, 60 (9/15/1977)
Jean Dimenstein, 71 (9/24/1977)
Ruth Schieble, 89 (10/21/1977)
Martha Thurmond, (10/25/1977)
Kathleen Woodruff, 74 (12/28/1977)
Ruth Schwob, (2/11/1978) – survived
Mildred Borom, 78 (2/12/1978)
Janet Cofer, 61 (4/19/1978)

I will admit that the DNA evidence issue has confused me, so forgive me if I am wrong. I understand that the DNA on 2 victims did not match Carlton Gary. However, those victims were not murdered, so that should not affect his death sentence. Also, the DNA on Jean Dimenstein DID match Carlton Gary. I do not think there was DNA for the others, but I am not sure. If I am mistaken on any of this, please let me know, but please, be respectful and stick to the issues. Do NOT bring the race issue up. I will not approve comments about any of that. Please read my comment policy. I will not approve comments that violate it. And please, as always, REMEMBER THE VICTIMS. They are the important ones.
