This that and the other thing Yes About the blog its nothing special but seeing that there are a lack of sites dealing with this subject matter that aren t as I put in the introduction to it distasteful it kind of aims to fill the void Compared to train wrecks such as this site here I think it has turned out rather well While most of the stuff on that particular site is quite humorous to read the proprietor s grammar and goofy comments leave a lot to be desired As for the blog introduction it shouldn t be taken too seriously While you and I can have a big laugh over somebody s body count or a father throwing some of his family over a cliff some reader might get p od that someone is making light of a mass murder that occurred in their particular town Considering that the blog has had over 170 some views thus far I m surprised I haven t received a comment similar to the one I just mentioned Its obvious that people are reading it as I ve checked the audience rating and have seen that people from Sweden Indonesia Paraguay and Singapore are listed by pageview That has to count for something right In regards to William Coleman you ll probably be seeing a lot of people going on to nutter alert that aren t on your list here either because of low victim count or because of monetary gain Its indisputable that Coleman wandered into a bar threw gas around and was ultimately responsible for the deaths of 12 people hence why he has an article on him There are a few others that will be profiled eventually such as Robert McField we discussed him awhile back and this new guy James Bud Stone As you can read here it looks like a robbery gone wrong Seeing that Stone was the one executed for the six murders and nothing was ever done to his alleged conspirators he might be profiled at some point I haven t quite decided yet As for Earnest Lawrence I remember seeing this article on him in the New York Times about a year ago Since it was pure conjecture on the police s part that Lawrence offed everyone I left him off my list I ve read the articles you ve posted and I m still unsure The articles state that a few firearms and an ax were found in the home with spent cartridges but only fragments of the bodies were found Now if a non incinerated body was found with a gun in its hand or an ax in its possession I d be off the fence for sure What if one of the Drew brothers mentioned in those articles wigged out about something and killed everyone saturated the place in oil lit a match and then offed themselves There weren t any survivors so that makes things even more difficult even the illness Lawrence is alleged to have suffered isn t elaborated on On the same token I remember bringing this case to your attention that I found equally stymieing According to this article four witnesses even saw Peel rowing away from the burning ship Eventually a few trials later he was acquitted and walked away a free man I remember our discussion on him and he was never listed as he was acquitted But it begs the question who killed the eight people on the boat and set it afire Peel certainly seemed guilty from the articles I ve read on him but as far as the courts are concerned he isn t Getting back to Ernie Lawrence I suppose as far as history is concerned it will remain a mystery and seeing that the bodies were virtually ashes modern forensic testing probably wouldn t help matters any As for your wondering about how you could contribute to the blog you already have With your findings on Biswas no wonder I couldn t find anything on the sonovabitch the article I posted had his name screwed up I can place a small addendum to the posted article stating your findings the same goes for the Wychopen article from a few weeks ago Hopefully with some of those other obscure old familicides other people readers historians might come out of the woodwork and comment on facts that they might know that I don t One of the obscure cases I look forward to writing about is Gilbert Twigg who I found to be a very interesting read when I saw him on here I might even e mail the Kansas Historical Society or state archives to see if they have any pictures articles on the man and his crime as there isn t a alot to work from other than the articles you have in the references section As for pictures eye thank you an thousand times for Cevdet Yilmaz who now after nearly six years of searching has two pictures I was wondering what James Ruppert looked like seei
