Lost In Lima Ohio - A true crime blog

There is a current Amber Alert for two young boys around Cincinnati Ohio- A Child Abduction Alert has been issued for two boys believed taken by their father from a Middletown home. Police say 32-year-old Julius Crossty took 9-year-old Julius and 8-year-old Julian from 816 Yankee Road at about 8 o'clock on Tuesday night. Police say he could be having suicidal thoughts. The mother was found at the home with cuts to her legs. The father is described as standing 6'0", weighing 160 lbs. with black hair. Julius is 5'2", 90 lbs. with brown hair. Julian is 4'0", 80 lbs. with black hair. Crossty could be driving a gold 1999 Ford Taurus with the license plate DQM 6260. If you have any information, contact your local police or call 1-877-AMBER-OH. Hopefully more information will come soon, and as always we hope that information includes the news that they have been found safe, and returned to their mother. Thanks to fellow Lima blogger over at Right Moment for hav...

I read a lot of bull when it comes to low life trash attempting to defend their actions in a court of law. I've been reading it, and hearing about it for so long, I usually can just skim over their self serving excuses and make my way to the real story. Some morning though, I just can't get past that first paragraph. It just leaves me STEAMING. 11 special needs children suffered inexcusable cruelty and abuse at the hands of two of Ohio's worst "parents"- Sharen and Michael Gravelle. Now, we've known all along that they planned to attempt the "it was for their own good" defense when they went to trial. And, sadly rather than just admit that they are worthless scum, they have proceeded with that defense . A couple on trial for putting some of their 11 adopted children in cages are guilty only of loving them, a defense attorney said Tuesday in his opening statement. "Eleven is a strain, a huge strain, but they did it for the right reason," sai...

I once read that no matter what your preference for online reading was, there was a blog somewhere dedicated to writing about it. Thankfully, it didn't take me long to find more than a few blogs that I could quickly relate to. I can't thank Steve Huff and Trench enough for paving the way for the crime blogs that came after them, as I've said on many occasions- they are the fathers of crime blogging. Wouldn't you know it, after a while these crime blog fathers had inspired a whole new generation of crime bloggers, and Trench and Steve decided to make an honest family out of us by officially adopting all the wayward little crime blogging kids that had been popping up along their trail and start an official True Crime Blogs group. I'm pleased to say that our family has continued to grow, and even more pleased to share with you that our crime blogging family has made it to the big one year anniversary . Now, I know normally on anniversaries the parents are suppose to ...

Due to a shortness of time on my behalf- I'm just posting a round up of stories that I've seen which have perked my interest in the last few days. Regular readers will most likely already know my thoughts on them, and really- none of them really need my commentary.

A judge has sent a clear message to those who would produce and more than likely distribute child porn... Get a plea deal, and you'll get a slap on the wrist (although it should be noted that the slap will be almost painless). Court records in the Asheville, N.C., case said he admitted that he would “record, develop and duplicate material containing a visual representation of a minor engaging in sexual activity.” That activity is defined by state law as including masturbation, intercourse and “touching – in apparent sexual stimulation or sexual abuse – of the genitals, pubic area or buttocks.” However, instead of the 967 months in jail – nearly 81 years – for which he was liable, Judge Robert Lewis, another Democrat, gave him, in a plea bargain with the office of District Attorney Ron Moore, who was elected as a Democrat, a 10-12 month sentence. For the full disgusting misuse of the judicial position- please continue reading this heinous miscarriage of justice at Stop the ACLU . Ca...

Katie Collman was ten. She had friends and family that loved her. She had a life ahead of her, a world of possibilities at her feet. Until Anthony Stockelman decided to kidnap her, molest her, and throw her into a creek to die. Yes, the very same Stockelman that recently received a little mark of the beast upon his forehead... that now famous tattoo that has caused so much fuss. Keep in mind that the only reason Stockelman pleaded guilty was to avoid the death penalty. Because in his cowardliness he felt his life was more meaningful than hers was. Perhaps he feared the moment that he'd meet his maker, and just wanted to prolong the inevitable as much as possible. Whatever his excuse... it's pitiful and shameful, but we really couldn't expect anything more from that sort of scum, could we? Which brings me to this annoyance ...
