The Lakewood High Serial Killer THE NIGHTSTALKER: THE LAKEWOOD HIGH SERIAL KILLER 1 A Large populated, academic high school with extremely aggressive kids,was targeted by a vengeful, hooded mask serial killer call the Nightstalker. The principal of the school attempts to deal with the aggressive and unethical behavior of students, including a white supremacist group, by delegating six gifted and athletic students who were just as aggressive to contend with the serious problems. The six super athletic females, who were seniors, vowed to clear the school aggressive and corrupt students.They uncovered a conspiracy by a white supremacist group to terminate the small number of African Americans studentsfrom the school at any cost. The sinister Nightstalker stalks and blows away victims of the school with a 44 magnum at a certain hour of the night. The killer only leftgruesome bodies, but no otherevidence or clues, making it very difficult for law enforcements to apprehend the perpetrator,which propelled the school and city into a terrifying panic. The police department was suffering from budget woes, and had only two detectives assign to the most gruesomemurders ever to occur in the city;theywere Linda Russo and Jackie Williams. Their work was cut out for them, investigating the serious situations at Lakewood High at times,and tracking the illusive Nightstalker at night. Linda Russobelieves that the gruesome killings were somehow connected to the 1990Nightstalker killings in her hometown in Michigan in which a relative was a victim. 2 O N E Linda Russo, a homicide detective arrives, to a house that sat on the corner to investigate a murder.Four other units had already arrived asshe departed from her gray Crown Victoria and entered the house. There, in the living room just at the left, was her partner Jackie who had had arrived a bit earlier;he was speaking to a young woman who appeared to be inprofound grief. Jackie turned his head and laid eyes on Linda,then he turned back to the young woman. “Excuse me for a moment, I will be right back” The young woman nodded her head. Jackie moves toward Linda. “Jackie what have we got?” “We’ve got a gruesome murder.” Jackie gestures to Linda. “Come on, the body is back in the kitchen.” Linda followed Jackie down the hall. Jackie glancedback at Linda for a second, “Watch where you step, there is glass from a lamp that wasbroken by the killer.” She glimpsed down briefly and moves around the broken glass lying on the floor. Jackie stopped andpoints to a bedroom that the forensics crew was examining for evidences. “This is her bedroom that the killer trashed.” Linda stopped briefly and glanced at the bedroom. Jackie strode along with Linda and glanced at her, “the victim’s name is Cathy Ross;she and her sister,and Laura Ross are coaches at Lakewood 3 high. The coroner checked the body and declared the time of death around 1 am.” Jackie entered the kitchen, followed by Linda. He stopped, and pointed to the body that was lying on the floor by the kitchen counter, covered with a black tarp. “Her sister came by to pick her up for work; the front door was ajar, so she entered the house and walked down the hall to the kitchen, after seeing the bedroom torn up, and found her sister here on the floor.” Linda moves to the covered body and crouched over it; she looked back at Jackie. “Is it really bad?” He bobbed his head a little. “Go ahead and see for yourself.” He added, “I just hope your breakfast can stay down.” Linda wrenched the black tarp from over the body. She quickly placed her hand over her mouth, “Oh my god!!” A puddle of blood surrounded the body. She stood up from her crouching position, removed her hand from her mouth and looked at Jackie. “Her face is deformed! What happen to her?” “She was shot in the head through her mouth with a 44 caliber magnum revolver. The 44 magnum blasts open her skull, leaving a massive gashing fissure there. The skull around the eyes is all warped and deformed, but the eyes themselves seem in pretty decent condition. This was after the killer shot her in both knees. Linda quickly covered the body and she turned to Jackie. “So what do you think happened here?” “Far as we can tell, she was in bed when she heard a loud noise.” 4 Jackie directed Linda attention to the pots and pans on the floor next to the storage cabinet. The killer lured her out of bed and into the kitchen by throwing pots and pans on the floor.” He steps over by the door and picked up a bat, clinched it in his hand, then turnedto illustrates. “She is awakened by a loud noise in the kitchen, so she got up and grabbed this bat that was in her room.” Jackie shook the bat, and then he clinched his hand around the bottom of the bat. “She came out of her room; maybe she tiptoe down the hall and turns on the kitchen light.” He glimpsed at the pots and pans on the floor. “She saw the pots and pans laying on the floor.” He placed the bat back at the kitchens door without looking back. “So she was relieved to see that it was just pots and pans that fell out of the closet, and had no idea that someone was hiding in her house.” Linda pointed at an entrance that intersects to the hall just outside the kitchen door. “Probably that area there, I would assume.” Jackie stepped back outside the kitchen to check the room, and then walked back into the kitchen. “Yes that would have been a perfect spot, he may have been hiding just in that corner next to the washer, and not ever been noticed.” Jackie continues, he walked over to the pots and pans that were on the floor, and crouched down, facing them. “So, she went to pick up these pans.” He glanced up at the kitchen door suddenly. “She saw someone standing at her kitchen door.” 5 He looked at Linda and emphasized with his hand. “Now, he could be identifiable, or maybe he wore a mask, we don’t know for sure.” Jackie stood up from his crouching position, stepped over to the counter, and stood next to the body. “The counter drawer was ajar”, as Jackie motion with his hands. “So she reached in this drawer and pulled out a knife. She turned and then he draws his weapon, which was a 44 magnum revolver.” Jackie walked over by the kitchen; he turns, holds up his right hand, points his index finger and moves his thumb up and down, as if he was discharging a handgun. “He shot her not in just one knee, but both knees, which would put her in excruciating pain; but that was not enough.” Linda shook her head and said, “He shot her in the head, blowing her brains out! And he did it point blank!!” Jackie glancedat Linda as he drops his arm. Linda stared down at fragments of brain, blood, and teeth on the floor around the covered body. “Only a sick psycho would do something like this.” Linda turned to Jackie, “Let check with the forensic crew and see what they have come up with; and, did you question her sister about whether or not Cathy had any relationship with a jealous boyfriend, or ex-husband maybe?” “That would have been my next question just before you walk in the door.” Linda walked out of the kitchen, followed by Jackie, and into the bedroom.The forensic crew was combing the room for evidences. “Have you guys found anything?” 6 One of the forensic crewmen picked up a plastic bag that contained a wallet and handed it over to Linda. “It looks like he may have removed her driver’s license and maybe one of her credit cards. The wallet was open and laying on the bed. We are going to take it to the lab for fingerprints, just in case, but most likely he was wearing gloves. Linda handed the bag containing the wallet back to the forensic crewman. “He left the cash in her wallet. Obviously his plan was not a robbery.” Linda and Jackie turned and walked out of the room into the living room, where Laura Ross who was sitting on the crouch with her hands folded together and head down. “Miss Ross.” Her gaze met Linda’s, but her mouth and eyes conveyed deep sadness. “I’m detective Linda Russo and I am very sorry about your sister but I need to ask you a few more questions.” “Sure,” Laura replied softly. “Do you have any idea who might have done this to your sister?” “Yes, she was dating a man who works as a service advisor at Sears, Johnny Short, but she broke it off because he was controlling and abusive. His temper was like his last name. She had to call the police to get rid of him. He told her that if he could not have her, no one would.” “Do you know his address?” “Yes, he has a condominium downtown it 1412 William Bury road.” “Okay Miss Ross we are going interrogates this man.” Just at that minute, another man entered the house and walked toward Jackie and Linda. Linda and Jackie turned around, “who are you?” ask Linda. 7 Laura quickly jumped up from her seat, “That’s my fiancé, John Connors.

It brings to light the multiple ways of arranging lives and forming caring relationships outside the normative notions of nuclear family and home, and offers insights into the relations of power and violence that are embedded in the peace.

This Ferris folder has a gum lancet at one end, looking like a tiny hatchet. At the other end is a slender scalpel. The gum lancet was used, as you might guess, for lancing gum abscesses. Abscesses were common when toothbrushes were not. The gum lancet is aptly named. Just looking at it makes my mouth ache. The design must have been precisely right because identically-shaped lancets were in use a long time—from the late 18th to the early 20 th centuries. Even so, my dentist didn’t recognize the instrument. He could not guess its function until I told him the name.

  • February 2012 Whittlers - Part 2 Roy Humenick in Their Day, Whittlers Enjoyed Quite a Bit of Popularity
    KNEWSLETTTER IN A KNUTSHELL 4 Whittler Pattern Knives 4 Custom knife competition 4 Jack knife game 4 Smile knife 4 2012 OKCA Club Knife 4 Sharp & Ready 4 Cutlery Superstitions 4 The Opium knife? Our international membership is happily involved with “Anything that goes ‘cut’!” February 2012 Whittlers - Part 2 Roy Humenick In their day, whittlers enjoyed quite a bit of popularity. Almost all knife companies had a whittler or two in their lineup. Yet there is something about a whittler knife that sets it apart from other knives. Something more than just three blades set in a variety of patterns. It could have something to do with the knife being a functional working tool in an elegant package. Or maybe it is the various features that are unique to whittlers. With the exception of the three back spring whittler, all whittlers have two back springs. One of the things that make whittlers unique is that both of the back springs bear on the tang of the master blade. That is, two springs ride on the tang of only one blade. The two smaller blades at the other end of the knife each ride on one of the two back springs. Getting the spring tension just right for each of the smaller blades may result in too much tension for the master blade. This is one of the challenges for the whittler maker who tries to balance the spring Cactus made whittler tensions for all three blades. Quite often one will find whittlers with half stop tang configurations for both of the small blades and no half stop used for the master blade.

KIM IL SUNG WORKS 45 Reminiscences With the Century 1 (April 1912–May 1930) FOREIGN LANGUAGES PUBLISHING HOUSE PYONGYANG, KOREA Juche 96 (2007) Translation from the preceding page: Revolutionaries, believe in the people and rely on them at all times and you shall always emerge victorious; if you are forsaken by them, you will always fail. Let this be your maxim in your life and struggle. Kim Il Sung PREFACE It is extremely moving for a man to look back on his past in his latter years. People lead different lives and their experiences are varied, so it is with different feelings that they look back on their past. I look back on my life with deep emotion and I have strong memories as an ordinary man and as a politician who has served his country and people. The country and people I have served always occupied an important position in world politics. I was born in the first period of the country’s ruin in the great national tragedy and spent the early years of my life in the vortex of the rapidly-changing situation at home and abroad, and I came to join my fortune with that of the country and share good times and bad with the people in my childhood. Following this path, I have now reached 80 years of age. My whole life, which has flowed with the current of the 20th century when the life of mankind has undergone unprecedented vicissitudes and the political map of the world has changed beyond recognition, is the epitome of the history of my country and my people.
