For a Parent, it should never be
one of THEM times

As always… well, most days.. I looked at our stats.

Today I came across something that I didn’t recognize, and I came very close to shutting the computer down right then and there.

It was just a feeling that part of me wishes I would have heeded… (Jacob) However, THAT is not the man that is sitting here.

My mind has already seen Frank when we were little boys, our Father, our GrandMother, and her two sisters who are our Aunts… in flash-backs probably fifty times already, since looking up the post I didn’t recognize… and I have Thanked Our Dear Mighty GOD already for Our Father, Our GrandMother, and Our Aunts. (Jacob)

From the time we were little boys, if Our Father was not with us, Our GrandMother and her older and younger Sisters, who are Our Aunts, would NOT let us be around any older boys or men by ourselves, and that includes our uncles on that side of the family, except for Uncle Frank who was Our Aunt Ida’s husband.  This is Our UnCivilized side. (Jacob)

You might wonder why I included the last paragraph in this, while it should be quiet obvious, I don’t mind enlightening everyone, since so many want to keep this a dark secret.

A major percentage of the Children we grew up with were victims of sexual abuse.  I hope no one of you jump to the conclusion that I have no proof of this fact.  In 1969, Vincent De Francis published the results of his study of sexual abuse of children, and in it he stated that the findings strongly point to the probability of an enormous national incidence many times larger than the reported incidence of physical abuse of children.  I found this in “Child Protection History In America” from the ABA.

At this time I will say that the numbers that are listed say that in 1990, 27% of the abused Children was physically abused, which would mean that between 50 – 75% of the abused Children was sexually abused. HOWEVER, I am more than glad to point out that none of these numbers can be trusted, since these state that about 5 Children die per day due to abuse, although that number is above 10, and most probably as high as 13, and most probably 15 Children a day die from abuse. *Government Accountability Office

It’s One Of THEM Times

Notorious Houston serial killer up for parole

A mother and father from Pasadena drove to an office building in Angleton Thursday for a closed-door parole hearing on one of Houston’s most notorious killers.

Their son, a 13 year-old boy named Stanton Dreymala, may not be remembered by many people in the Houston area, but what happened to him is seared in the collective memory of a generation of Houstonians. He was one of at least 28 boys and young men lured to a horrifying death in what became known as the Houston mass murders.  “He was just a normal 13 year-old,” said his mother, Elaine Dreymala.  “He went to school, he rode his bike, he mowed lawns for his spending money.”

Between 1971 and 1973, a man named Dean Corrl recruited two teenaged accomplices – David Brooks and Elmer Wayne Henley – to entice other youngsters to his homes, where they were drugged, raped and sexually tortured – sometimes for days – before they were murdered.  Some of the terrified victims were forced to write notes telling their mothers they were leaving town shortly before they were killed.

Texas Monthly magazine – April 1976

Elmer Wayne Henley Jr. received six life sentences in 1974, suffice it to say he’ll likely never be released from prison.

Per the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Henley is currently incarcerated in the Mark W. Michael Unit in Tennessee Colony, Texas.

Henley was most recently denied parole in 2015 and will be eligible for his next parole review in 2025.
