One like and one comment now two counts mine. lol

Much like my pubs but I get a rare like no comments last few months and I write daily mostly.

I’m not surprised though as people would rather read about puppies or cats on here. Waste of time ask me.

But this story deserves attention. Loads.

I’m going to disperse it hopefully you don’t mind my 20 social media accounts.

I’m bored tonight anyway lol

But not without my story.

Here in California in nineties a family member by marriage only FM committed a heinous crime under the influence of alcohol.

He kidnapped and raped 16 year old girl under a bridge locally.

He got 40 years.

He’s in around 27 years now.

I wrote to him a while because I homeschooled him ages 5th grade to 9th grade and after I taught him as much as I could along with my kids he went off to high school with high hopes and high marks at last!

Top of his class in algebra!

I talked to him and his mom one day after the first semester of success for him.

I spotted something really wrong and troubled in his psyche. I’m a quasi psychologist masters in psychology bachelors sociology. My experience lived and treating others but I’m retired now is much more valid than my degrees. A joke the college I went to watching movies for curriculum for 30 k per semester.

Anyway FM was really off and found out later he had smoked some bad weed or some drug just f” ed him up.

I actually called the police because I knew he would snap and snap he did.

Police laughed at me

I visited him once level 4 highest security 2 years ago.

Had a great chat!

I reformed him in my 4 hour visit. Sarcasm here he’s a bullshitter now like most people lying to deceive.

Sure just I would never want him out.

People who commit such crimes need mental help and permanent supervision as indicated in this travesty for Junko and her family.

May you be blessed for taking such great literary care of documenting the details of her 44 days of pure hell.

I feel for her mom the most.

But anytime a child who is on good behavior all their life calls home that they run away with nothing leading up to it should have caused immediate alarm.

I’m a mom of 3 adult amazing children and none ran away from me!

If they suddenly switched to run away solution I would not have believed them for one hot minute.

My two cents.

Hindsight is twenty twenty right?

People who commit such crimes just need to be killed. We are taxing crime victims to support the people who brutalized them.

When they no longer release people from death row after DNA or other evidence exonerates them, I will agree.

I was surprised her family said they at first believed her that she ran away but they called the police 2 days later.

This girl, Junko, had her life taken in the most brutal way. What might she had done with her life if this had not occurred? What were her dreams for her future? I can’t even imagine how any human could do this to another. Thank you for sharing her story.

I've heard all about those studies about teen brains not being fully formed at certain ages. But how does that work? 18 year old knows exactly what he's doing but a 16 or 17 year old doesn't? I just think that there has to be something wrong with anyone who could do what they did and IMO none of them should have ever been free again after their convictions. This is premeditation on steroids. They had 44 days to stop and save her life but none did. If you aren't going to properly punish them because of their age is it time to start punishing the parents who aren't doing their jobs? I have so much sympathy for that girl's family especially her mother.

Thank-you for telling Junko’s story. Really too bad the killers weren’t executed that year.

I’ve read about & listened to a lot of True Crime & this case is one that has truly shaken me to my core. The line about the judge saying her Soul is probably stuck in that state of terror because she was brutally tortured for so long… Ugh, I can’t. Makes me so sad, smh.

Hard to read as it was probably hard for you to research and write! There is no end to human evil!
