Morgan Loved Life – How Dare They Lie…

IMG_0393And again…here is a picture of Morgan – peaceful, loving Morgan.  Of all the people in the world to lie about how could they have chosen to lie about Morgan? Those who knew Morgan, those whose lives were touched by Morgan know that the things these “others” have said about Morgan are not true.  People that NEVER knew Morgan at all think they can just make up things about Morgan…and they can, but do other people believe their lies?

Did you know Morgan was a voracious reader? In her room she had many, many books.  In the bins that she had already started to pack up for our move, she had many, many books.  She was a student of LIFE.  She wanted to know everything, and anything.  She did research constantly teaching herself how to crochet, knit, read music, play the piano, learn different types of yoga & languages, meditation, how to prepare healthy organic foods, bake, paint, create crafts, design clothing, and much more.  She did not sit around playing video games or partying, she liked to be fully engaged in life – not avoiding it.  I guess the way she lived her life, in a way, angered some other young adults that felt as though Morgan thought they were beneath her.  They were wrong – Morgan did not think about them at all.  She was only concerned about how she was living her life.

Morgan was a passionate student of philosophy, and she studied many different religions.  She had many passions in her life, but her main passion was life itself.  Just walking around town she would stop to admire a beautiful flower, or a dragonfly momentarily touching down.  Driving through the valley as a passenger in the car she would point out how beautiful and different Mt. Sopris was on that day, compared to the day before.  She would point out the elk in a distant field, or get excited when we drove by someone she knew.

She would “squeal” when her friends would run up to her on the street – always so excited to see them, even if she had just seen them the day before.  That was Morgan.  She was sweet, kind, loving and appreciated her life.  She never took life for granted – she was passionate about life.  For the person she was I am grateful – she lived her short 20 years to the fullest, in kindness & love, without regrets.

And her life should never have been taken from her by jealous and obsessed people that have no real purpose in their lives.  These people that were involved in her murder know exactly who I am speaking about, as I know they read this blog. I would like them to know they have been lucky up until now, but that will not continue to be the case.

Until now the Garfield County sheriff & coroner have been able to cover-up Morgan’s murder by using misleading and false statements, along with both of the incorrect manners of death, all in order to derail any investigation into her suspicious death.

Original jurisdiction (Home Rule) in Colorado allows local authorities, like the coroner and sheriff, to keep any other law enforcement agency from investigating. It is a law that allows an agency that is corrupt to exist in Colorado. Fact: Morgan was a victim of an active felony stalking investigation at the time of her murder.  Fact: The ONLY drugs found in Morgan’s body were date rape drugs, ALL were listed on the Sexual Assault Panel at the lab.  Fact: Both of Morgan’s toxicology reports dispute the coroner’s findings of natural causes and then suicide. Fact: There is evidence that her body was moved postmortem (after she was already dead), it was a staged crime scene.

Morgan’s case will be investigated, and there is more than enough evidence already to have people stand trial for her murder.  It won’t bring Morgan back, but hopefully it will bring about changes in the way victims of stalking and murder are treated, and will make very needed changes in Colorado law.  We will absolutely NOT give up until these things have happened.

This brings me to one of the reasons I am writing this post – please know that we do not live in a world in which we are able to sit back and not make choices – inaction is a choice.  The Garfield County Sheriff has created false statements about Morgan, including trying to misdirect people into thinking she wasn’t even a victim of stalking, which is absurd.  She was a victim of an active felony stalking investigation at the time of her murder!  But I know exactly why the sheriff has chosen the stance he is taking – he can not afford an investigation into Morgan’s murder, because he can not afford an investigation into his own office.

To Morgan’s murderer: Heaven & earth are coming for you & for all those that have helped you, and are continuing to help you. Morgan’s life mattered.  Morgan was loved and had her whole life ahead of her. lightmorgan

If someone chooses to stay silent about a criminal act, an act that they know is criminal, then they are not only morally wrong, they may also be charged as an accessory to a crime, and that also goes for people in law enforcement as well.  I know there are officers in the Garfield County Sheriff’s office that know the truth about Morgan’s case, and have not come forward yet.  I’m sure they fear they may loose their jobs if they come forward, but then again, is it right to stay silent?  What happens when the truth comes out and these officers are questioned?  What happens when more than one officer start to tell the truth?  This recently happened in Pueblo, CO in the case of the missing young woman Kelsie Schelling http://www.chieftain.com/news/crime/3969128-120/schelling-police-pueblo-case.  The police officers in Pueblo towed the big blue line until too much evidence came out, and the media, as well as the justice system, became involved.  Those officers finally did come out with the truth about what happened, against their superior’s wishes.  In my heart of hearts I believe that most people deep down inside are good people, and when they know something terrible is being covered up they will come forward because it is the right thing to do…but maybe I am too much of a dreamer.  Maybe it won’t happen until indictments are made.desmondtutu

Remember the simple things in life – like brushing your child’s hair…

MorganwithMomI loved Morgan’s hair…actually I love everything about Morgan.  Her smile, her eyes, her voice, her cuddles, everything.  I miss everything about her – I miss Morgan.  Some mornings I wake up and just cry, I know it is the grieving process, but I still tell myself, “I want Morgan back, I want to wake up and see this was all just a bad dream.”  But that never happens, and it never will.  I know, just like all the other parents that have lost a child, that I will carry this pain with me until the day I die.  Don’t believe anyone that tells you it gets better over time – it doesn’t.  I think you just get better at managing it over the years.  But even if you get better at managing it – it still gets away from you at times when you least expect it, and the tears flow.

It always seemed like Morgan loved having me brush her hair and braid it.  Even when she was an adult, she would sometimes ask me if I could put a french braid in her hair before she went to bed.  I think she knew I enjoyed it and it became one of our bonding moments over the years that we did together.  Just like squeezing each others hands to say, “I love you,” without words, or doing a girl’s night together where we would both give ourselves facials and laugh at how funny we looked.  All those precious memories are all I have left of Morgan.  I am so grateful that I have them – nothing can take away the love of a child, not even death.

Parents never think they will loose a child.  We usually think we will pass before our children, and when a loved one is violently ripped from your life your whole world changes. I can no longer see Morgan’s bright light, but nevertheless I can “feel” it.  And I know others can too.  They tell me that the “felt” her right when they needed her.  She still comes to comfort them, and to let them know she is okay.

 

Accessory to Crime in Colorado – you can go to jail!

I would like everyone to know that there are people in Colorado that “know” what really happened to Morgan & “know” who was involved in her murder.  And for those people that “know” I would like everyone to be aware that they can & will be prosecuted themselves under CRS 18-8-105 if they do not come forward before someone else implicates them.

WARNING! It is illegal to assist a fugitive in any way. Accessory to Crime, CRS 18-8-105 Colorado Law states: “A person is an accessory to a crime if, with intent to hinder, delay or PREVENT the discovery, detection, apprehension, prosecution, conviction or punishment of another for the commission of a crime, he renders assistance to such person.” This crime can be up to a Class 4 FELONY, punishable by up to two (2) years in prison and/or a fine up to $500,000.00!

Morgan was stalked & murdered.  There is ample evidence of this, as well as who was involved, which makes it a capital crime with no time limit to prosecute.  So I would like to say this to everyone at this time…Steve & I will never stop fighting until EVERY SINGLE PERSON that has hindered, delayed or prevented the discovery, detection, apprehension, prosecution, conviction or punishment of another in the case of Morgan’s murder is found and prosecuted to the maximum extent possible.  Please know, this is my PROMISE!

Our family has not only suffered, and continues to suffer the loss of our sweet and loving Morgan, but we also suffer through the agony of exposing the cover-up and crime of murder in our daughter’s case.  No family should ever have to do that, and unfortunately I now know many other families that have.  This is so wrong!

If you know someone that may be criminally implicated in this crime as an “accessory to crime” and you care for that person at all I would strongly urge you to have them call or text the Northern Colorado Crime Stoppers tip line with any and all information regarding Morgan’s case.  http://www.nococrimestoppers.com.  By coming forward it will show they are no longer willing to be accessories to murder.

Halloween 2011…I see her over and over again

morganhalloweenI see my sweet youngest daughter, over and over again every Halloween, just as you see her here in her mouse costume.  Did you notice the heart drawn on her shoulder?  She put hearts everywhere – it was a Morgan thing. 🙂  This was her last Halloween.  She was having fun with her friends after they all came over to carve pumpkins & roast the seeds.

I see Morgan’s sweet face and wish with all my heart that I could kiss and hug her again…I know until the day I die I will wish the same thing.  How could people live among us in this world that can take a life and not care?  I have been told over and over again that there are many people in this world that are sociopaths and for them other lives have no meaning.  But as a mother I want to scream, “Why my child?”  She did nothing wrong…she was a loving, giving soul.  Then I think back on all the children that have been taken over the years.  It doesn’t matter what they were like they were still loved and their parents are still fighting for justice.  You should hear some of their stories…it is just not right…no one has the right to end another’s life against their will.  It is not right, and never will be right.

It is really hard some days with all the holidays coming up.  I want my baby back, but I know I can’t have that one wish.  The pain never goes away and I am pretty sure it never will.  I am no longer the person I used to be because a piece of my heart called Morgan disappeared the day she died.  That missing piece will never be replaced.  But a funny thing happened tonight that made me want to write this blog.  I was lying in bed feeling very sad and all of a sudden I saw a “flash” picture of Morgan pop in front of my face, she was upside down smiling to surprise me.  It made me smile and disappeared just as fast as it came.  Maybe most of you think I must have been dreaming, but I wasn’t.  My eyes were closed, but I was wide awake and just sad – I can feel Morgan around me most of the time, but it is really a wonderful surprise when she pops in to cheer me up.  So now when I see her Halloween picture I am reminded of all the fun we all had and I am grateful for that.  Still sad because I can’t have future holidays with Morgan, but grateful for all the wonderful times we did have together…I feel blessed.

All evidence will not be revealed…

I would like to thank all of those many people that have written in to me (mostly privately) to try to help solve Morgan’s case.  I greatly appreciate all your ideas about how to go about finding more evidence, exposing those involved as well as getting her case opened.

What I would like you all to know is that we do have all the physical and documented evidence that shows this was a murder, as well as video and audio recordings of those who have engaged in this coverup.  And after all these years of doing our due diligence we know who was involved as well as who joined in to protect those involved, but this evidence is not for the people out on the Internet to see, most of who are connected to the criminals. Those people pretend to be armchair sleuths that know what they are doing, but they want to ignore the facts and instead state lies that are not even close to being true – things they have made up, kind of like the stalker’s family that sent me 3 different emails to tell me he wasn’t even in the state when Morgan was murdered, but clearly his work timesheet shows he checked in to work that very night at 2:00 am at a job that was less than a 5 minute drive from our house.  So no, this evidence is for law enforcement to use when the time comes for a REAL investigation, and please be assured it will be.

Cover-ups do happen and they are not always just about what you may think they are about.  This cover-up is very multilayered and involves more than just Morgan’s case.  It is very upsetting and sickening to now know what we have been up against from the very start.  I am actually glad we didn’t know at first or it may have been much for us and too overwhelming to continue on, so in a way ignorance is bliss.

From the very beginning I have tried to express to everyone that I would only be releasing a small portion of what we have and that is exactly what I have done.  The people involved in Morgan’s murder and cover-up would love nothing more than for me to show them all the evidence so they can try to figure out a way to spin it in their favor.  Remember when people know they have done something wrong, something that could possibly carry a jail sentence, that gives them all the more reason to keep covering up their actions.  I have never heard of many people that admit they were breaking the law when they know they are in danger of doing time in jail. So the bottom line is this…no one has received ALL the evidence YET and until we are assured that a law enforcement agency outside of Garfield County is ready to open an investigation ALL the evidence will not be released to the public.  Garfield County Sheriffs and Coroner can not investigate themselves period!  And they have already shown that they do not want to investigate those involved in Morgan’s stalking and murder so an investigation in a different jurisdiction will need to happen and luckily for Morgan she can still receive justice as there is NO statute of limitation on murder.

There are amazing detectives in the U.S. that really do care about solving crimes and we have been extremely blessed to have had some of them involved in Morgan’s case.  This case will get opened and there will be justice.  It won’t bring Morgan back…she should be off on another adventure between college and her passion for travel and women’s rights, but she has been taken against her will and is no longer here, so we have to be her voice and stand up for justice.  And we are and alway will be her voice, as well as the voice of other victims.

And on a side note, for the others involved in hiding the truth, you know who you are…you are co-conspiritors that are involved in covering up Morgan’s murder – you might not want to be the last one to come forward with the truth because if you are you will also be implicated and arrested as a co-conspiritor, ultimately you will be involved in a murder case.  Just know there will be justice for Morgan and all other victims of stalking!
