They don’t have capital punishment where the catfisher guy lives, and I’m generally not in favor of it. But in this case, I wish it were an option. I work with children around this age at my school every single day, and I’m so upset right now, I can’t see straight.
From DailyMail court coverage:
Cimarron was told if she did not comply her photos would be sent to her father. In gut wrenching detail the prosecutor described how Cimarron pleaded with McCartney to stop. Even when she was visibly distressed and crying, he told her to ‘dry her eyes’ and involve her younger sister aged nine in a sex act.
Cimarron refused and said she would rather kill herself with McCartney cruelly launching a countdown and telling her: ‘goodbye and good luck’.
The court heard Cimarron’s sister later heard a popping sound that she thought was a balloon bursting.
This is a UK article, but the little girl, Cimarron, and her father, Ben Thomas, who both tragically took their own lives, were Americans and lived in a small town in West Virginia. Little Cimarron killed herself out of shame. 18 months later, the father killed himself because he couldn’t get over her loss.
This is a horrible story, so read with caution. I wish I hadn’t read it, but people need to know stuff like this happens so that they can better protect their own kids.
I don’t think it had anything to do with Odinism, BUT the bodies were arranged in a weird way. And the cops have been keeping a lot of evidence pretty quiet. So we’ll see.
I’ve been following the story for a while now. She hung two of her kids up with a dog leash. Then blamed on one of the victims, saying he committed suicide and took his sister with him.
She doesn’t really seem very remorseful, but at least she’s going to prison for life.
Yeah, it sucks, but honestly, this has been happening for a long time now. Way before current president, last one, one before that, and one before that. lol
People have always bought stuff they can barely afford.
When I bought my house, I waited until I could get something that wouldn’t take up more than 30% of my after-tax income. I found a small fixer-upper in a nice neighborhood, and everyone thought I was crazy for not getting something bigger.
Now my house is paid off, and they’re still stressing over their bigger, more expensive homes. Now to be honest, my house still kind of a piece of crap. Some rooms still have 1970’s wood paneling. No granite countertops for me. But fuck that noise, now that it’s paid off, I don’t owe anyone shit.
Times are tough, no doubt, but people make mistakes whether the economy is good or bad.
I’m not shilling for anyone. If you are unhappy with articles that get posted, then you should take your concerns to the news orgs. I don’t write the articles, friend. My post history is public: https://lemmy.world/u/UniversalMonk?page=1&sort=New&view=Posts
Same reasons that ad tiers are gaining a foothold in streaming services like Netflix. The consumer has shown they are fine with it.
Yep, I remember when Netlfix first put it out there that they would start with the ads, and everyone on reddit was like, “Canceling my Netflix right now!!”
Netflix is doing just fine without the 5 redditors who actually did cancel it. lmao
