CARLY Ryan believed she had found the man of her dreams in a Texas-born, Victorian-based, 20-year-old "emo" named Brandon Kane. In reality, he did not exist

Yeah this was their online version (it was linked from their e-mails)... I have a pretty huge problem with Court Reporters ever since my case... the spelt the victim's name wrong, quoted things SO obviously wrong & completely out of context... it doesn't surprise me that they'd use a sentence like that. I assume it's to catch a casual reader so they would then believe he did admit guilt. Although it sounds like he helped with the murder - the main charges are against the father. It seems like the son was just roped in for the day in question... but maybe more will come to light as the trial continues.
I don't know if I'd think the father was retarded... but I can see it being a 'sexual perversion' or something of that nature... which he got a bit ocd about. There has to be something wrong with a 50 year old pretending to be a 20 year old so that he can obviously get his 'jollies'. The news reported that Carly's body had her underwear 'tampered with' and her bra was only held on by one clasp (most bras are 2 or 3 clasped)... so I'm definitely under the assumption that something of a sexual nature was trying to occur. Either way it's fucked up. An innocent girl shouldn't have died... and whether or not the father killed her... he should still be SOMEWHERE to get help with his problems (as I said, I think he's perverted/pedo).
Also, totally saw the Red Cross on Unley Road today. It's near Wattle Street... just next to the Bed Bath N Table.
Hmm, well I guess from my point of view anyone who would murder or rape (or be fifty and try to sleep with a fifteen year old) has a mental abnormality of some kind (again, not that it's an excuse), but a lot of them can function perfectly well in society apart from that... whereas everything I read about this guy made me think he should be wearing a fluoro vest and headgear when he walks to the shops. If you know what I mean. For crying out loud, he WROTE to his relatives asking for help with an alibi! Who puts that in writing?!? It sounds like he was in jail when he did it, too, so he should have known the police would have been reading his mail...
And Wattle St? Man, I am totally going to have my eyes checked. I swear I've never seen it. Maybe I'll make a special trip tomorrow just to verify it exists (even though it will be closed by the time I get home from work).
I don't know, I've read/heard about a lot of cases and the people accused/guilty of the crime definitely had their little 'oddities'. Like the guy accused of king hitting the other kid at a party (it was dismissed before I left for euroland, so I can't remember names)... the guy ~seemed~ like a nice kid in the court, but then after the case was dismissed it was revealed he was a complete weirdo that basically had no friends and had no social skills whatsoever. He was also on night detention and obviously wasn't following that court order by being at the party. So I'm not sure if I'd go as far as to say the father was retarded... but definitely something wrong. Although the letter thing did make me laugh. Maybe that's why he tried to plead guilty to manslaughter though? (That was thrown out, which makes me believe the prosecution has something up their sleeve?). I just thought his other (I guess 'possible retardations') were just part of his obsession... like him telling people she was going to get it for kicking him out of her 15th party (I'd just take that as him being frustrated he couldn't eff her, rather than someone who doesn't know the line of appropriateness). Does that make sense? I'm tired. :( But yeah, the guy seems like a weirdo, eitherway.
The sign looked new, so I'm not sure if the shop is new or not? But I definitely want to go there... once I have money free to spend again haha!
I FINALLY found the Red Cross. It was ridiculous, I walked that entire section of road either side of Wattle St looking at every shop and STILL didn't see it until I was walking back the same way. It looked like a bit more of an upmarket op shop than I like, and also even more women's wear dominated than most. But that would probably suit you! I will most likely check it out sometime soon.
