Dear Lilliana: Children And Pets Are NOT Game Pieces!

I'm a little hostile this morning, but that's because I get sick of hearing about women who are willing to put their children (and in this case, a pet, too) in harm's way, all because a man wants to leave them.


A puppy is dead after Maricopa County sheriff's deputies said a woman arguing with her boyfriend tried to keep him from driving away by placing her children at either end of his moving vehicle and then throwing her pet under the tire.


Twenty-seven year old Lilliana Campo of Phoenix,Arizona,is the woman accused of using her children and her puppy as "pawns" to keep her boyfriend, Gary Jeffries from leaving. The puppy had to be put to sleep because of his injuries, but the children are fine. Campo was charged, booked, and released. From another article I have read, the children were placed in the custody of CPS.

Perhaps the most ironic and disturbing part of this whole incident is that it appears the boyfriend is still with Campo. He even got her a new puppy.

Here's this quote from Jeffries, regarding the puppy that was accidentally run over by him.


"We had him for a week," Jeffries, Campo's boyfriend, told CBS 5 News. "She had slept with the puppy by her side. It was like her child."
Yeah, she allegedly killed a puppy, which was "like her child". Which really makes a person wonder how far she would be willing to go to hold onto her man, should another argument suddenly break out.

He loves me, he loves me not, oh what the heck he loves me...

It seems to resemble a bit of a 3rd grade crush. Mag said first grade ... but it's really less annoying that having my ponytail pulled. He loves me... after all, he keeps linking to me . He loves me not... evidently that's why he uses my comments out of context and twists my words... he loves me, because clearly he likes to "poke the bear" (That 70's Show quote). Yes, I just referred to myself as a bear. A lot less hairy, but no less scary. Because anyone that thinks you should be locked up for the rest of your life is indeed scary. Especially when she likes to go around telling everyone how demented you are... and how she'd like to see you locked up forever. And even more scary when you know that it's the truth she speaks. And Lindsay, he is demented. And he should be locked up forever. And, well it seems that he is a fan of mine. Yep, that sick lil monkey can't help himself. He reads this here blog (which is a hint that you should share your thoughts...

The Beating Death Of a Child

Michael Porter was arrested Thursday for the death of his two year old stepdaughter. He is accused of striking the little girl in the abdomen earlier in the week causing blunt force trauma and inflicting deadly wounds. The little girl was described as having significant bleeding in her intestines and bruising on her ribs, the front of her chest, side and back. Records indicate that she had bruises in other areas of her body and medical examiners believe she suffered from possible kneeing, punching or squeezing. Kelsey Smith Briggs dies hours before her father was due to return from serving in Iraq. Port has recently filed divorce papers on Rae dawn Porter, the little girls mother. The bond has been set for $1 million, after he plead not guilty in court Friday morning to charges that he killed the toddler, Kelsey Briggs. The judge in the case has issued a gag order for everyone in the case. You may have to register Video, grandparents speak out , grandmother report the abuse without any...
