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...

Linsi E. Light

When it came on the news last night, there was very little information. Even today, although there is more coming out- there still is a rather chilling "quietness" in the details of the case. You must understand, my home town is rather small. Murders front page news. So when the second murder of the year was shuffled into the mid section of the paper this morning, without so much as a name for the victim, it seemed- well it seemed odd. It wasn't until this evening that one (out of two) local TV news stations picked it up enough for it to hit their website. What I have been able to compile so far, is that at some time last night, Lima Police received a call about a gun being shot. They arrived at 1212 Bellefontaine Ave, on the east side of Lima to find a 19 year old OSU student dead. The young woman would be identified as Linsi E. Light, a first year OSU Lima student from Montpelier Ohio , a small Ohio town with just over 4,000 residents. She apparently had been shot in th...
