Another murder...tragic ending

This article is about the murder of a mother her four children. The prime suspect of this case is Joshua Steven Durcho of El Reno. He is 25 years old and has a previous record of car theft as a juvenile and was sentenced to four years in prison in 2003 for unlawful possession of marijuana. He was released in February 2007, records show. El Reno is about 25 miles west of Oklahoma City, where this incident happened. Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation spokeswoman Jessica Brown said, "The victims' bodies were found Monday by an officer who went to the apartment in this central Oklahoma community to check on the welfare of the occupants." The victims of this horrible murder are Summer Garas, 25; daughters Kirsten Rust, 7; Autumn Rust, 6; and Evynn Garas, 3; and son Teagin Rust, 4. The neighbors in the apartment complex said they heard a loud bang and that the police came around 4:00 p.m. Their kids used to play with the girls and boy who were wrongfully murdered but now can't.



I don't understand what this guy was thinking... I don't think anyone can justify what he did. No one should be able to and if they can... watch your back around them. The stories that I have been reading about are now beginning to worsen and not only disgust me but disappoint me. This guy was obviously a messed up person and because of his mistakes 5 people are dead and 4 of them hadn't even lived past the age of 7 yet. What a shame. I truly hope he is caught and pays the consequences of his stupid actions. When something like this happens I don't know if the killer knows that it just doesn't affect the person or people that they kill but all surrounding people as well. It also ruins the killers life too... don't they know that with technology where it is today that it is dang near impossible to slip one by the criminal investigators? I wonder how this Durcho guy can sleep at night and if so... when will the realization of what he has done hit him? This isn't the movies people can't just go around killing people. People like Joshua Steven Durcho need to be stopped and taught a lesson... I am not sure how to teach someone like him a lesson but nonetheless I still believe that it needs happen. I believe this is my last blog... and I am sad to say it. I can no longer say until next time, but instead thanks for listening.

Dissovle your problems away?

John Glotti and his gangland career is finally unravelling. His neighbor, who accidentally ran over his 12 year old son was allegedly shot and then dissolved in acid to get rid of the evidence. According to this article the sons name was Frankie. The neighbor who was killed was 52 years old and his name was John Favara. He was shot and dissolved in a vat of acid on orders from the outraged Gambino crime family boss. A government witness testified this: Charles Carneglia, an alleged mob soldier awaiting trial on five murders, made sure there was no body to be found by dissolving Favara's remains with flesh-eating acid, which he kept by the drum in his basement. Government prosecutors wrote in court papers, "In a later discussion concerning his expertise at disposing of bodies for the Gambino family, which included a discussion of a book [Charles Carneglia] was reading on dismemberment, [Carneglia] informed another Gambino family associate that acid was the best method to use to avoid detection." This article leads me to think that all the mob crimes that happened through this Glotti are finally being discovered and put to an end.


I read a blog written by Matt Hemingway at http://obamarejectsbushiraqwithdrawlplan.blogspot.com/, it was titled, Baby's corpse thrown out with hospital's trash. That story in itself is disgusting and pathetic. When I read that article and then this one I was dumbfounded as to how sick and crazy life is getting. It seems as though the crimes I am reading about only get more and more movie like. They are getting severer with each crime committed. The idea of dissolving someone in acid is quite an idea. Almost ingenious, for if it was then they wouldn't have been caught. Nonetheless still a very good idea... not saying that I approve of it or that it is OK because it was a good idea, but simply that these guys weren't idiots. They were good at what they did and probably still are. I hope these gangsters get put in jail and someone puts a stop to all this crazy stuff going on lately. A baby that died 20 minutes after birth, considered a still born, was thrown in the trash and is somewhere in New Jersey. That is unbelievable! To add onto it the person who did it can't even get in trouble that much because a stillborn isn't considered a human/person in New Jersey. I don't really understand that, not to mention dissolving someone in acid but they sure do make good stories. The press is having a field day lately with all the weird and disgusting stories coming out. Crazy stuff and until next time...

Homicide 35 years later?

54 year old Bufor died December 29th. He was shot in the back 35 years ago and just recently had complications with the wound causing multiple organs to fail, and he died. The wonderful legal system is calling his death a homicide after all this time. And to add onto it his wife said that he hasn't really experienced any complications health related up to this point in time, so she herself was very surprised when it was ruled a homicide. The story goes like this... He was seventeen at the time. He had been gambling with some of his peers while on a trip to pick up his girlfriend. He won money and refused to return, which got him shot in the back. His future wife only heard pieces of the story, saying that he had put it behind him. And apparently he ran into the guy later in life and told him to forget about it. The prosecutors are having a hard time turning up any credible evidence. Making it likely that the guy will never be caught... in my opinion.

I read a blog by Dave Beck at http://www.socialdave.blogspot.com/, it was on this same story and his view on it was pretty much the same as mine. It seems a little movie-ish or a CSI kind of thing. It is as Dave said far fetched and the police should realize that it is near impossible that they will find the shooter because of how long ago the incident occurred and do they think the shooter is just going to show up and turn himself in? I guess the latter part of the previous sentence could occur but in my opinion that is very unlikely. I don't quite understand completely as to why his organs failed was it completely due to this gun incident? Who for sure knows... I guess the guys on CSI might be able to figure it out but I am not one of them so I can't tell you. The fact that it happened 35 years ago and that the victim who is now dead forgave the "killer" shows that this shouldn't be a homicide. I mean of course it isn't right for the guy to shoot him but still it didn't kill him "until 35 years later". I would really like to hear if they in fact do catch this killer and also more information about the whole story. It is quite intriguing... and in fact could be pretty good material for the next CSI. Until next time...

Family murder to avoid child support

According to this article, Danny Platt confessed, told police where to find the child's body and will be booked with first-degree murder of Ja' Shawn Powell, his son. This man was angry over having to pay child support for Ja' Shawn Powell. "He had said he would kill either his wife or his child before he paid child support," which he recently had been ordered to do, Police Superintendent Warren Riley said. Riley said he did not know the amount of child support and would not describe how the boy was killed, saying the coroner would do that after the autopsy was complete. The coroner's spokesman did not immediately return a call. Platt's story never really added up according to the police making him a suspect from the very beginning. His story went like this: three men with dreadlocks and AK-47 rifles had piled out of an SUV and kidnapped Ja' Shawn shortly before midnight Friday. Personally I think the story is not believable at all and supposedly so did the police. Eventually Platt confessed and told the police where to find the body of his two and a half year old son. Riley said that the mother is in a safe place and it seems like everything in this case is finally figured out.


I think that if someone can kill their own son just to avoid child support then that person should never be allowed to be back on the streets again. If you are going to kill someone I think it would be a smart idea to think of a good alibi for yourself so you can get away. Instead Platt comes up with a movie scenario that is hardly believable in my dreams. It just shows how stupid someone can be to not only kill his son to avoid a monthly payment but to also come up with an unrealistic cover up. Times are hard as of now but not that hard. I mean I am not Danny Platt and not in his position so I guess I don't completely know his situation. I am just a high school kid still living with his parents in Minnesota. Things just seem to be getting worse the stories in the news just seem to be getting more intense as the days go by. I just don't get it. I hope our country can pull together and fight out of these horrible times. I guess that is just how the cookie crumbles for some and for others the cookie is still intact. Hopefully mine stays intact. (And is M&M... they're my favorite)
