Kevin Ray Underwood

Court Doc 1Kevin Ray Underwood was arraigned yesterday in court, on a first degree murder charge for the grisly murder of Jamie Bolin, a ten year old girl from Purcell Oklahoma.
Reports refer to Underwood as being "quiet" and "soft-spoken" as he requested a public defender in front of the judge.

If you click on the images to the left (they will open in a new window) you'll find an affidavit filed with the court, and the court Court Doc 1filing of the charges against him.


It's difficult to understand how someone could commit such a completely heinous crime, and in society's desire to give reason to how something so terrible could happen, many have latched onto Underwoods blog- hoping that in some way it will provide them with an explanation. A clue. Something. It does not make us forget the most important aspect of this case- the fact that a beautiful little girl has been stolen from those who knew her, and from those that perhaps Court Cod 3would have been lucky enough to meet her one day in the future. But, we still have that longing, that need, to understand why she was taken. In truth- it's not likely that anyone will ever find it, because there is nothing that could justify it, nothing that could undo the horrors that have been committed.


While Kevin will sit in jail, will go to trial and wait to receive a verdict and then his sentence, a family will go on to mourn for the child lost. While we can not ever begin to take their pain away, we can show the family our support, and let them know that we have all been Court Doc 4touched by this tragic event. Family members intend to set up an emergency fund at Bank of Oklahoma, to which those wishing can contribute. While few of us had the joy of knowing Jamie, we have been given the chance to show our concern and sympathy to her family.

I'll be writing some more on this case later, but until then, the following true crime bloggers have been working hard on this story, please take a moment to visit them:

Florida Sex Offender Registry

Reading the news today, I was taken back to see that the Florida Sex Offender registry was being criticized. Having had the chance to look at it previously, I had always found it rather informative, and well organized. The issue that many are having with it now wouldn't be noticed by the occasional browser on the site. Which makes it even worse. A review of the FSR has found some rather unsettling statistics: The News-Press analyzed the Florida Department of Law Enforcement database of 36,306 sex offenders and found: • 9,205 of them are incarcerated • 7,037 have run away or can't be found • 824 have been deported; and • 516 are dead. Of the 15,573 sex offenders listed as released and not on parole or probation, only 11,355 of those actually live in Florida. Sex offender registries can only be usefully, and only fully do what they where designed to do when they are updated, maintained and monitored continuously. When you are relying on the SO registries to monitors how safe your...

This land is my land, this land is not your land...

I was reading the illegal immigrant news this morning... you know, all about the Spanish National anthem... and all about their big rally May 2... and I started thinking. Perhaps, just perhaps we need to stand up. It may be a really good time to remind everyone who's country this is. 12 million illegals... heh, I think we can beat that. The rough estimate is that the US has a population of 298,000,000, or close too it. Take away the estimated 12 million illegals, and we still have 286,000,000 give or take some. So, basically, if one were to be honest- a boycott by legal citizens would be more impressive. 12 million illegals, who can not legally vote verses 286 million citizens who can minus children and some criminals. My country. Not theirs. My taxes, my jobs, my political leaders. 286 million people should be able to remind law makers just who put them in office. 286 million people should be able to remind companies who buys their products. 286 million people should be able to si...

WTW Someone Please Help Us

There's so much to work with, I'm going to just hit as much as I can. Ashely Simpson decided to pick a fight at McDonald's. Betting millions that if the employee would just go and get the manager- the manager would just love her. Simpson's climbing on the counter and irate behavior where in typical White Trash Style. Great coverage at Stereogum. Tom Cruise has decidedly canned his sister for her inability to help him keep his mouth shut. Evidently he needs a real professional as his PR person- in order to keep him in line. It's just not right firing family because you're and idiot. Kate Hudson is suing someone because of photos of her in which she looks like a starving actress. She claims the images suggest she has a eating disorder- no Kate, it's not the images, it's the you. One should not sue because they have starved themselves to the point of it being noticeable in photos. Please stop by these other great sites to read more WHITE TRASH WEDNESDAY B...
