The death of little ones

 Again a recent post appears to try to connect the cult with the death of young children and babies in or from the state of Kentucky. How it ties into Amy’s case or killers is a matter to be left up to the readers.  I would have no doubt  bought into all that hum bug had it not been for attending a showing of the new movie Summer of Sorrow which was shown in Ashland and Mansfield. This movie was written by members of a family that came from Kentucky in the late 1940’s who lost a baby. Not only did they suffer a loss but so did 8 more families on the out skirts of Mansfield called little Kentucky. This area was named Little Kentucky because most if not all the people were from Kentucky. Seems they came for work. Several new factories, like the Mill, GM,Westinghouse, and so on had openings for people and no one to work those jobs , so instead of starving their families these people went to where the work was. Not knowing that these very people would change the history of that community to this very day.  It was a mystery as to the cause of death of not one but all the 9 babies. In the end it came down to sanitation and bad water as the cause of death. This makes me wonder why are these other people saying that the deaths of these children they posted was due to cult when the death certificates clearly state otherwise. I know for a fact back in the early 1900’s there wasn’t any Dr’s back up in those hollers in the mountains, no hospitals either. So if a person became sick ,well it could very well end their life. There’s nothing suspicious about several infant deaths in one family , A lot of those families had a dozen children or more. It was common knowledge there were no Dr’s. I know of a family that purposely moved from Kentucky to Cincinnati just because they had a hospital.

I recall many years ago a story being told to me about people in the tri-county area sacrificing babies. I heard also about siblings impregnating each other just to make babies to sacrifice. Are any of those stories true or are they just old wives tales? Don’t know but anything is possible. Not to long ago there were tales of skinning dogs very close in the area of New London. Still yet more rumors of all the children brought down from Cleveland to 3 pay lakes. Never found out what was really going on with all that. I do recall a house that was a children’s home in that area too. I watched as a line of children climbed the steps of a bus each morning to take those children to school. What I found odd was it was in the country and there were so many young kids. Still to this day I wonder where they came from and where did they go.

Let’s Clear the Air

LETS CLEAR THE AIR!

There’s a handful of people in a group spinning their wheels in this case that seem to think they are right on track when it comes to solving Amy’s case. Wrong oh many wonders! Once again I’ll repeat myself at the risk of sounding silly, “ they have known from the start who it is” that committed this horrible crime what they were and still are asking the public, is for information that brings this all together. They need connections. Might be something small you remember that you thought didn’t mean anything but to this case may just warrant the arrest of the perpetrators! So can we get on with it! All this stuff about flying drones and taking out of town trips and chasing the elusiveness of cults in trying to connect it all is so a waste of valuable time unless of course you have no job and no life to speak of. Let’s talk about the cult in the area Amy’s body was found in. 

Many yrs. ago cults did very much exists. Like I said many yrs ago. The author of a book cults that kill was an expert on the cult things back then. He knew everything going on in every Ohio county! I personally spoke with him about this case a few times. I was told there wasn’t any cult activity in the Ashland county area at that time. Not saying there hadn’t been before or even after just not at that time. He was an expert witness for the many states across the United States. I’m assuming he knew his stuff.

As for the store on 224 at 60 what is the point in saying it was just 2 doors down from the church? Means nothing!  As if to say McDonald’s was just a few miles down the rd too! The products that were sold in that store were just that products. You wouldn’t go into a candle shop and expect to buy baby food so why would you think you couldn’t buy things associated with your product line. Let me just add here that a few different things were being sold in that store until that type of business bottomed out. I know I met the owners before they sold cult associated products. Seems the only things you could make money on was that stuff . After all these people had bills to pay and needed to eat too! Reminds me of people saying they’re moving cause they have to go where the jobs are. I find it appalling that these do gooders took shots at people who have passed not giving them the opportunity to answer any of the questions they have. I’m pretty sure their answers would have been stunning to say the least!

Let’s go another step forward, why is it that finding fault of a young man’s newly found religion so important to this case? Not sure, he was about the same age of Amy. He had his own friends, was too young at the time to have gone to the house on co rd. 500 and was not doing the blood letting. So why even mention him? Is it because of his choice of religion? I met him too, I saw the shrine, met the grandmother all of which are nice people. Maybe it was things in his childhood that caused him to go in that direction . Maybe in his mind for protection ,no one knows and really it’s none of my business. What I do know is he’s all grown up and turned out to be a very nice man.

Now a little on Deputy Dilgard. Why in the world would you want people to think his only job was for cult activity? He was a deputy, his expertise was in cult activity. He took special courses to know how to handle any crime that may or may not look to be cult. He wasn’t hired just for that, that’s ridiculous he had many other duties. I know most L.E. have at least one course on cult activity, I know I took it.

And finally the dedication of Ashland to Jesus  buy Matt Miller. What a wonderful and thoughtful thing to do, what does that have to do with cult? Nothing, it does however give hope to a town that use to be booming with factories and restaurants and stores just everything a small perfect town could have to help rebuild its power and strength in its people. Ashland has lost many families due to no work. It’s lost lives due to drugs invading its community as they have all communities. Kinda like Trump saying build back better. For Ashland to hear on the news every yr. For the last 33 yrs. this is where Amy Mihaljevic was found doesn’t make it sound like the place you would want to live and raise your family does it? Well my friend it is that place, it was once the place people talked  about that use to let their kids play outside until the street lights came on. The place where in the summer you could go to bed at night with the doors unlocked. A place where you could play in the town creek or go alone to the park to swim or fish. It was a place where you could sleep outside in a sleeping bag or just a blanket with no fear of being harmed in anyway. So times have changed life goes on Ashland is getting bigger and better all the time yes it’s still a place to be it’s still home to me. And with all the prayers for Amy and her family may the grace of God soon resolve this horrific crime against this child.

Beginning of the end

It’s been some time since anything has been posted here. This year I’m not having the annual remembrance dinner for Amy. Reason being I’m satisfied with my findings of who the killers are and how it all went down along with how it connects in two different counties. Yes it took awhile to figure it all out but I did. I’m glad I didn’t try to force the issue of the cult being part of Amy’s Abduction and murder. Because it wasn’t. It wasn’t a school teacher who’s life has forever been tainted with insensitive comments either. It had nothing to do with phone calls to other girls. This was something done to Amy just because it could be. I don’t believe at first they intended to kill her, but when it got out of hand these ful grown adult males were bound and determined not to be held accountable for abducting and murdering this beautiful child. Here’s how really stupid they are. They thought that if they tainted the crime scene and spread rumors of different things that no one would ever figure out what they done. Wrong. Took awhile but it worked out. Were drugs involved , yes but it had nothing to do with Amy, or her family. She was at the wrong place at the wrong time and really that’s all there is to it. In the beginning it was said that the authorities knew who it was. I found they did. I also found that because of laws that wheel and deal with situations that effect families ,towns, and countries,these deals can and have put in motion endless years of relentless heart breaking feelings for literally thousands.
Moving On......

I Guess 50 Questions

While things seem to be on hold right now I can assure you they are very much working this case feverishly. Going back over things already on here I thought it might be nice to finally put a few answers or at the least guesses to some 50 questions that are just setting there waiting for someone to answer. Feel free to jump in at any time! Here goes,



1.Why was Amy the target , other than being left alone a good deal of the time that summer?
She was gullible.
2.Why didn't this case start from the school instead of the shopping center?
Because the shopping center was the last place she was seen alive.
3.Why do authorities from the Bay area think the person responsible is from the lake road area?
Because they really don't know who it is, if they did then the person would already be under arrest.
4.Why do authorities from the Ashland area think the person is from there?
Because they know their area and the type of crimes they have there.
5.Why are they looking for Al Matlock?
They need him to verify the possible person or persons they are considering.
6.Why do the houses in question all have a sales date of 1/1/90?
Back at that time that was the date entered into the computers.
7.Why don't we know anything about "Ruth"?
She was in the background, a friend, and looks like didn't have anything to do with case, so they say. 
8.Why didn't the LENSC display the plaque from the start?
They wanted the children and their families feel safe in their environment, didn't want to tarnish their good name.
9.Why is it that Ashland authorities claim to know who it is, yet nothing has been done about it?
Your guess is as good as mine.
10.Why haven't they questioned the first persons on the scene?
They  were. Many times,by the public also.
11.Why keep holding back information on this case after this many years?
They don't have much, they need to keep some things to use in a court of law. 
12.Why did the FBI look back one year for a boyfriend for Margaret?
Because they always start from the family and work their way out in doing an investigation.
13.Why is it said that drugs were involved?
Rumors of that type of thing were reported to be happening at that time in that area.
14.Why would a 10 year old be in the middle of drug dealings if it were true?
The only thing I can think of  is , wrong place, wrong time. No other reason. No child should be in any type of situation like that.
15.Why so many suspects?
Because the composite was just a general picture and could look like anyone.Other than that fear of the  person/s living next door that you really don't know.
16.Why was there a combined reason to black out the autopsy when they were getting ready to tell it on T.V., what stopped them?
We don't know.
17.Why was Amy's body put in that field?
We don't know if there was a reason.
18.Why was she moved from the place she was murdered?
The killer knows the victim, so they try to get as far away from them as possible.
19.Why haven't they come to a conclusion as to how long her body was in that field?
That's a 50/50 deal, no one can come to an agreement  as science says one thing and the people going past that area say another.
20.Why has it taken so many FBI, Police, Sheriffs to solve this case with still no answers?
Because they didn't share information when the case first became  a homicide and not just a possible abduction.
21.Why did the FBI helicopter fly directly to the house on Co. Rd. 500 when they were there?
It was rumored that the killing may have taken place there.
22.Why did the FBI cut and take pieces of the walls and dust for fingerprints in the house on 500?
Because the appearance of the houses interior lead  them to believe that something tragic did happen there

23.Why did the FBI say it was a cult house on 500?
The neighbors in the surrounding area suggested something on those lines was going on because of the traffic to that house which had been abandon for many years.
24.Why and by who's authority was the house burnt to the ground after they removed the stuff from the 500 house?
Don't know for sure, but I imagine because of the decay of the open house after that many years it was considered unsafe.
25. Why would it be said that her heart was used as a stamp to make the bloody marks on the walls?
Again this is just rumor and can't be verified, just someones opinion.
26.Why are the firemen so sure it was deer blood on the walls and not human?
It was professional opinions I'm guessing because of the carcases left behind of deers from former squatters on the property.
27.Why would anyone clean deer upstairs in a house?
There is no reason to do such a thing.
28.Why would a deer hunter put marks on the walls from a deer using it's blood?
There is no reason to do such a thing.
29.Why do all the authorities seem to think the killing took place on 500?
I don't know that all of them thought that,if they did it is their opinion.
30.Why don't we know who owned that house on 500 in 1989?
The records only went back so far and not enough to say who really did own it at the time that happened.
31.Why is it that the 500 house was known as the party house?
Because it was known by school children to be a place they could go after school and do what ever they wanted, such as smoking, drinking and just hanging out unsupervised.
32.Why would an officer of the law tell his daughter not to say anything about what she saw concerning the 500 house?
To prevent anymore rumors.
33.Why would police give back a jacket that was found that should have been considered evidence in this case?
I don't know.
34.Why would the FBI think the same men that killed the French girl are also the same men that killed Amy?
Possibly the condition of the body or just similarity of the two cases.
35.Why did someone show up at Margaret's mothers house and take possession of Margaret's address books?
Only the person that showed up there knows.
36.Why were Mark and Margaret considering divorce prior to the abduction?
I don't believe the public was ever told the reasons, I'm guessing it's personal between the two parties.
37.Why did Ruth think it would jeopardize the case to come forward earlier?
Good question, anyone care to voice an opinion?
38.Why didn't Jason say anything until the next day about Amy talking on the phone to a unknown man?
Don't know.
39.Why did Amy's dad stay in the background?
That  was his way of dealing with the situation.
40.Why is the poster composite so common looking?
Because there wasn't really any reason for the children to pay any attention to the guy to start with.
41.Why do the FBI pro filers think the killer had a sudden fascination with a cult or radical religious group?
Don't know for sure.
42.Why did the FBI pro filers think the man didn't get along with women?
Possibly because of the type of crime.
43.Why didn't anyone see her get into a car, if she was taken in a car?
Because no one was paying any attention to her.
44.Why hasn't the murder site been released?
Possibly because they don't know where it is.
45.Why were strange corrections done on the death certificate?
After a length of time they must inter some kind of information according to what the coroner explained to James.
46.Why wasn't there an inquest?
Don't know.
47.Why didn't the FBI want the billboards to be put in any other county except Cuyahoga for the 20 yr. anniversary?
Again this was a strange request.
48.Why doesn't anyone want to talk about this case in Ashland County?
Because of the fear of the unknown.
49.Why did the undercover agents have guns under their coats at the Bay Village library for the first reading of James Renner's book?
I don't think James ever told why, my guess would be that because of the people he named in his book.
50.Why did they have under cover agents at the book reading at the Ashland library?
To insure the safety of the people at the reading just in case the killer made an appearance.

It's that time of year … again!

Another season is upon us. Usually this is the time when most people start getting all excited about the holidays. Getting together with friends and family, shopping for the perfect gift, thinking about all the fattening foods they really shouldn't eat , but will sample just a small piece of everything placed in front of them. What could it hurt? Wanting to exchange stories of their summer pleasures with anyone who will listen. Warm afternoon walks through the parks looking at all the fall colors as the leaves on the trees change and ready themselves for winter. To some it is a time of dis pare. No job, no money, no home to call their own and the last thing they want, is to be stuck at a get together around others who are more fortunate then them. Some dwell on lost loves that have gone on before them , yet still manage to put one foot in front of the other and go on themselves. I, like so many others remember Amy at this time. It's now been almost 23 yrs. since she went on before us. It's odd to say the least how someone you never met can affect you for so many yrs. the way this child's departure has. It just rattles you to the core to think of how Amy must have felt in her final hours here on earth. I'm sure she thought of her family, friends, animals. All the different emotions of what Amy could have felt sometimes run through my mind till I cry. I wonder did she beg for her life, did she cry please take me home please. Did she make the promise not to tell anybody if they just let her go? My stomach churns when this time of year comes around cause all I think about is Amy. That child didn't have a chance. Her world at that time should have been filled with love and laughter. We all know that didn't happen, so why then has it taken so long to find the person that took the life from her?
Crime Stoppers recently finished and aired the reenactment of the abduction of Amy. James Renner has it posted on his blog should you like to refresh your memory. Who knows maybe you will be the person that remembers that tidbit that pulls this crime together. While there check out his new venture, every little bit helps!
Moving on……………………..
