Greetings Reptile Members,
By now, you have read on the Keenan Trial Blog, Chris Carver’s and Michael Bristow’s Autopsy in a MVC case.
http://www.keenantrialblog.com/reptile-autopsy-reptile-superstars-christopher-carver-michael-bristow/
Chris and Michael’s autopsy centers on the Reptile’s emotional imprint stool. The emotional imprint stool consists of the lie, the betrayal, and the hypocrisy. It is argued that one of these exist in every case. These emotions drive Bubba to correct the wrong by bringing truth to the lie, correcting the actions of the betrayer, and unveiling the hypocrisy. Lastly and most importantly, these words cause Bubba to bring judgment. That is part of the reason why Chris and Michael obtained what they did in this case,
despite their conservative venue. A couple of times in the article, Chris and Michael imply that Reptile cases are harder case to try in a conservative venue. I want us to discuss our experiences with conservative venues. Are conservative venues less sympathetic to the Reptile than liberal venues? Is the tide shifting? Does it even matter? Remember that, sharing and collaboration is the key to advancing the Reptile. I am looking forward to your responses. Thank you,
In December, 2011, two years after the unpleasant homicide of Wayne Boyce, the evidence collected for this particular crime suggested Prima Facie existing in the allegations made. The case then went to trial in the NSW Supreme Court of Australia. Where A 19 year old teenager referred by the initials of his name AH as he was a juvenile, pleaded guilty towards the manslaughter of Mr Wayne Boyce, 23 years of age.
These two men, both coming from different backgrounds, joined together and carried out a terrible choice that rendered consequences far worse than they imagined. Living under abuse, Perry Smith never obtained the necessary integrity to be able to pause and consider how his actions might affect other people. He matured into a man who acts before he thinks, all due to the suffering he endured as a child. Exposed to a violent father who did not instill basic teachings of life, Smith knew nothing but anger and misconduct as a means of responding to the world. He knew no other life. Without exposure to proper behavior or responsible conduct, he turned into a monster capable of killing an entire family without a blink of remorse. In the heat of the moment, Perry Smith slaughtered the Clutter family and barely stopped to take a breath. What could drive a man to do this in such cold blood? The answer lies within his upbringing, and how his childhood experiences shaped him to become the murderer of a small family in Holcomb, Kansas. ¨The hypothesis of unconscious motivation explains why the murderers perceived innocuous and relatively unknown victims as provocative and thereby suitable targets for aggression.¨ (Capote 191). ¨But it is Dr. Statten´s contention that only the first murder matters psychologically, and that when

Anna and Gracie Sharpe were killed in a calculated double murder, committed by John Sharpe on the 23rd and 27th of March, 2004 [AAP, 2005]. After reportedly arguing with his pregnant wife Anna, Sharpe fired two spears into her head, instantly killing her while she was asleep. He then contemplated killing his 19 month old daughter, Gracie, for 30 minutes before shooting her in the head with the same spear gun he had used to murder Anna. Gracie survived this initial attack, however, as she reportedly ‘screamed’ in pain [Healey, 2004]. Thus, in order to silence her distress, Sharpe retrieved the two spears from Anna’s head and then fired them into Gracie’s head as well, before dismembering her body with a chainsaw and dumping it into a landfill [Hadfield, 2014]. He later returned to exhume Anna’s body where he mutilated her corpse, scattering her limbs at the same place where Sharpe had left Gracie. While these murders were explicitly “singular” in brutality it was Sharpe’s attempt to conceal the crime by playing the victim, which requires closer, criminological attention [Hadfield, 2014].
Guilty or not guilty? This the key question during the murder trial of a young man accused of fatally stabbing his father. The play 12 Angry Men, by Reginald Rose, introduces to the audience twelve members of a jury made up of contrasting men from various backgrounds. One of the most critical elements of the play is how the personalities and experiences of these men influence their initial majority vote of guilty. Three of the most influential members include juror #3, juror #10, and juror #11. Their past experiences and personal bias determine their thoughts and opinions on the case. Therefore, how a person feels inside is reflected in his/her thoughts, opinions, and behavior.
However, it is the opinion of the author that Johnnie Cochran pinpointed the real tragedy, of why a murderer walked free. The issue went beyond racial or socio-economical discord; the issue was that of ethical responsibility. This paper will address the ethical responsibilities of investigators, especially in high profile cases. It will also address the dereliction of duty by investigators involved in the O.J case and recommend how individuals in the field of forensic death investigations can avoid future embarrassment like that observed in the Simpson
Kathleen Weiand shot and killed her husband Todd. At trial, Kathleen’s defense was BWS; because of Todd’s abuse, she had no choice but to kill him, fearing that if she did not, he would eventually kill her. Defense expert Dr. Len...
On November 29, 2004 Nancy Seaman, an award winning elementary school teacher, was put on trial for the murder of her husband Robert “Bob” Seaman. On May 10th of that year, Nancy hit her husband sixteen times with a hatchet and then preceded to stab him twenty-one times with a kitchen knife. She then cleaned herself up and then went to work as usual. After she returned from her job, Nancy bleached, painted, and scrubbed to clean the garage where she had killed her husband. Then, she wrapped up Bob’s body in a tarp and put it in the trunk of her car. The interesting point of the case is not finding out who killed Robert Seaman, but what the circumstances were for committing the crime.
Both doctors on Stinson’s case, Dr. Johnson and Dr. Rawson have testified that “to a reasonable degree of scientific certainty” the bite marks on the victim had to come from Stinson because they were done close to the time of the death and “was the only person who could have inflicted the wounds.”(Innocence project, 5) “No margin for error” was the concluding sentence of Dr. Johnson, while proving that Stinson is guilty. In Dr. Rawson’s, the chairman of the Bite Mark Standards Committee of the ABFO, testimony that the evidence used in the

Losing a child, spouse, sibling, or friend to murder is one of the most difficult situations to endure, especially knowing that the murderer is alive and well. The victim’s families attend countless trials and are involved in numerous court proceedings for multiple years, only to learn that the murderer will be fully clothed, fed, have
