Another Big Lie Rolling Around On The Internet…

 

Just the other day I received the following comment in connection to my blog post http://morganingram.com/wordpress/?p=9683

That blog post goes on to explain, “In the over 71 incidents of stalking, there are only 2 times, evidenced by his timesheet from work, that he was actually clocked in at work.  Only 2 times!  So if he wasn’t clocked in at work how was he on camera stocking shelves?  He wasn’t. Go ahead and read the timeline from the beginning – I have added screen shots of his work hours out of the police reports. But don’t just take my word for it – look for yourself, starting from the first day of the stalking from my timeline.” http://morganingram.com/wordpress/?p=389 

Obviously the person who commented never ever read the post – they just read the title and decided to comment the following, “So Keenan was proven to be in work at every time this person was seen standing outside of the house. CCTV cameras show HIGH QUALITY images of him stocking shelves etc at the actual time of Morgans death. The people who created these blogs and people who continue to accuse this man of murder are ruining the life of an innocent man. Morgan killed herself. She took too many pills. Why? I don’t know. But I do know that Keenan Vanginkel had absolutely nothing to do with the tragic death of this young girl.”

This person obviously never looked at the post about the night of Morgan’s murder…he did not clock in to work until 2:00 am – we have been told Morgan was dead by that time. You can see the exact time he checked in to work on his timesheet (all timesheet are included in the actual police report – which Keenan Vanginkel is called the “Suspect” in the stalking case) http://morganingram.com/wordpress/?p=2688

I guess this is what we all have to look forward to with the surge in social media – people can anonymously hide behind their computer screens and act like they know what they are talking about BUT they don’t…they just continue to spread lies. Very sad, but expected. In the past bullies and liars did it in person, now these cowards are even more emboldened because they can do it from the shadows of their own home 🙁

So to the person who calls themselves Lau, the lesson learned is this, “When you don’t know the whole story, shut up!”

Hope & Peace…For All Victims/Survivors of Stalking

Acronym of Hope written on green chalkboard

For any of you reading this post, especially those who are living through a horrific stalking, I want to send you blessings of hope and peace.

So many times in our lives we hope, some say they pray, and others say they manifest…to me they are one in the same, but no matter how you think of it, just remember to ASK, BELIEVE, RECEIVE & NEVER GIVE UP!

Here’s the good news: You don’t have to make all the mistakes, because I already made many of them for you. When you read through the timeline of the stalking, starting at day one, http://morganingram.com/wordpress/?p=389 you will read about what we thought, how we reacted, along with the things we did to try to catch the stalker, protect our daughter, and keep our lives moving forward. You will also read about all the mistakes we made along the way…at the end of 4 months of horrific stalking, all I wanted was to push a redo button. They say hindsight is 20/20 and that was so very true in my case. But, as we all know, there is no redo button – I could not change the outcome, Our youngest child, Morgan, was gone forever.

My hope has always been that through my timeline, of the actual day-to-day happenings during the four months of stalking, as I show what happened to our daughter Morgan, as well as my husband Steve and myself, that readers could understand what we did that worked and what we did, out of naiveté about stalker, that did not work. As of today I feel like it has helped many people, as they have written in to me over the years to thank me for this help. This Blog has reach almost 8 million people to-date and I hope it continues to help others over the years.

We can never bring our amazing daughter Morgan back, but for every other victim of stalking that may receive help some from me, in order to stop their ordeal, that is a piece of justice for Morgan. Stalking is insidious and frightening and can escalate to violence which can include rape and murder. Everyone needs to treat stalking with the seriousness it deserves. It is one of the most underreported crimes to-date, and there are many misconceptions about what stalking is really about. It is not romantic – it is a fixation and an obsession. It is a crime which destroys lives.

Happy First Day of Spring…

Picture above was taken by Morgan Jennifer Ingram in 2011

Today is the first day of Spring – it is the Spring Equinox (also called the March equinox or vernal equinox). This year the Spring Equinox falls on Wednesday, March 20. This event marks the astronomical first day of Spring in the Northern Hemisphere.

We now get to enjoy the increasing sunlight hours, along with earlier dawns and later sunsets. I’m sure most of you get a little excited about this change in the season…it sure seems like nature is reminding us that life goes on, no matter what. The first Spring I experienced without Morgan was like a slap in the face…it was hard for my heart to understand how life could continue on, without a hitch, when Morgan was no longer a part of this life. The pain was immeasurable. Now, after 7 + years, I understand a lot more – doesn’t mean the pain is any less, it just means I understand how and why life continues on, Spring brings forth new life, and the lives we have lost are not ever really gone.

Wishing you all a wonderful and bright Spring 🙂

 

Sunday, March 17, 2019 – A Little Reminder Left Behind

This morning I looked in Mogwai’s bed, (Mogwai is Morgan’s cat…her fur baby that she loved so very much), and I saw one of the little cat toys she had crocheted for him…he still has it. As you can see it is very worn after 7 + years, but he still cuddles it in his bed.

Morgan was constantly making things for everyone, with her own two hands. In the weeks before her murder she was knitting gloves for one close friend, painting glasses for other friends, and baking goodies for relatives. She had gone shopping with me and found matching P.J.’s for her and her sister for Christmas, as Christmas was only weeks away. She asked if we were going to pick up a tree cutting permit again this year, in order to hike up in the mountains to find the perfect tree to bring home. That was always a fun outing, including hot chocolate and lots of laughter.

Morgan was excited about the possibility that her stalker would soon be arrested…she was scheduled to give her on-camera interview only 4 1/2 days from when her life was taken from her. She was scared, she was nervous, but she was also excited that life could go back to how it once was, after an arrest was made. She had also been going through all her stuff and packing up boxes and putting them in our dining room, just as Steve and I had started to do, as we were planning on moving to a safer new home…but we were too late. Just 23 days before Christmas, she was gone and all her plans and dreams, along with all of ours were gone forever.

None of us ever stop thinking about Morgan. We all miss her, even her fur babies miss her. But all our memories stay with us. Everywhere I look I still see Morgan.

Another FACT You Might Wish To Know…

Whenever I have been invited to be on a Podcast I have always been given a chance to talk about stalking in general in order to raise awareness.  That it would revolve back to my daughter Morgan’s stalking and death is unavoidable and I believe it is very helpful in order to raise awareness about the dangers of stalkers.

The mistakes and shortcomings in Morgan’s case should not be lost in the effort to help others in similar situations.  In telling her story as accurately as I could it has already helped countless stalking victims throughout the world, and while it is painful at times, I have no regrets, and I take pride in the accomplishments.  Thanks to all of you who listened to these Blog Radio Shows and I encourage you to support victims of stalking, as it is a devastating crime.

As I read some of the comments from the last show that I was on I saw some familiar “anonymous” people making the same false claims they have been making for years.  This is a reality that exists, they give no real identity, because if it is the mother, family or friends of the prime suspect in Morgan’s case, then the mistruths would become all that less believable.  A website that we are now working on is growing to address all the real truth about Morgan with the REAL documents, I do work full time as a victim advocate, and while Steve helps me immensely, we only have so much time, and this is a big project. Our names will be on this website and we will stand behind everything that is printed on it, unlike the anonymous “others” making false statments out on the Internet.

It seems that Porphyria was the popular subject that evening, The FACT is our daughter Morgan was tested for many different things after being exposed to Carbon Monoxide, which hurt her health.  One of those many things she was tested for was Porphyria, twice, long, long, ago and both tests were negative, and both tests were “possibly compromised,” so we discounted them.  So, when the contracted forensic pathologist, who is responsible for Morgan’s autopsy, came up with Porphyria I asked him if this claim was due to something he found medically at autopsy, or through testing, his answer was no, he said, “She was tested in the past for it because she had it.”  I am still mystified by his blind insistence.  He told me that she was talking amitriptyline for her Porphyria, which proves she had it. Well (A) I told him she was most definitely NOT talking Amitriptyline, (B) I did not know Amitriptyline was even for Porphyria (it is not), and (C) she was never diagnosed with Porphyria.  His answer was that amitriptyline was found in her blood, so she was taking it. Unbelievable!  If he understood toxicology (we consulted an esteemed, highly regarded forensic toxicologist back east who could see from the results that she HAD NOT been taking it and it was a one time massive dose). The pathologist then admitted he did not know that much about Porphyria, so he would be open to talking to someone from a large hospital out on the coast that would see this condition far more often than he would.  This became an exercise in futility as a doctor who treated Morgan became involved and tried to send him medical documentation showing she did not have Porphyria.  An absolutely brilliant, and ever-giving doctor, as well as a professor many times over at the UCLA Medical Center Children’s Hospital, tried unsuccessfully to explain that Morgan could not have died in the manner the contracted forensic pathologist thought she had.  He never listened to one word she said…so much for his being open to speaking with someone with more knowledge then him.

Other of Morgan’s doctors, and specialists jumped in, and all were unanimous in that this manner of death was wrong.  Nothing changed, and later when I was threatened with a change in regard to the manner of death from natural causes to suicide, if I did not give up, I was assured by doctors that the contracted forensic pathologist could not do this.  So, I was plenty shocked when he actually did change her manner of death from natural causes to suicide 8 months after his first false conclusion of natural causes.  As a very concerned mother and parent I will traverse the trail before me until there is truth, because Morgan did nothing to deserve a complete lack of fairness, respect and dignity following her murder.  And I did nothing to deserve the intimidation that is running rampant – I have always given facts and the truth about what really happened and no amount of intimidation  will keep me from using my voice.

If you are interested the subject of Morgan’s “manner of death is covered more completely in this post. –  http://wp.me/p2wvjS-14Q
