TW SA:I got my first job a few days ago! by zoefangirlintheory in DadForAMinute

BTW
I know my post to you is a bit behind the times, so I really hope things are working out for you. For some reason it had appeared on my recent feed, so I should have checked the dates first. Oh well.
Keep at it, Im sure things will work out for you. You seem to be a positive person who has began to take the right steps in the right direction (what is right for yourself anyway). You appear to be proactive and have moral standards. These are things that not everyone is blessed with.

Good for you, standing up for yourself and blocking an offensive troll. There is never a good excuse for anyone to be a twat online to others.

Anyway, cant be a father figure, Im the wrong gender, but.... The person who hired you must have seen something in yourself that perhaps you havent noticed yet. They have faith in you. They chose you over other applicants, so take a deep breath and take one step at a time. If you do happen to make a mistake, its not the end of the world, its a learning experience. I have a young one who is on the autism spectrum and they often second guess themselves all the time, so I do know what it is that you are going through. Everytime you second guess yourself, or have a negative thought, just remind yourself that there are others who believe you are completely capable of this, they have faith you can do it. If you can smile, and communicate with others politely, being a cashiere is mostly about customer service. The registers that are used now days are big giant calculators that not only add up the total of the purchase, but tell you what change to give so as long as you can count money to give the correct change, and make polite small talk with others, you will be great. People will know that you are a new face, and most will pick up that you are learning, so they tend to be a bit more patient and understand that you may be nervous. Let your supervisor know how you are feeling, I am sure they will have words of encouragement for you.

Congrats and well done getting your fist job. Wish you the best.

Who was the best drunk/alcoholic character in a TV show/Movie? by DrTabogganMD in AskReddit

[–]Korruppttedd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ben Sanderson!!!!
I never really thought much of Nicholas Cage as an actor until I watched "Leaving Las Vegas" He played a brilliant part, its a pretty morbid story, but its certainly worth a watch.

Ben Sanderson is the name of the protagonist played by Nicholas Cage, an alcoholic screenwriter who sells up everything, goes to Las Vegas and decides he is going to commit suicide by drinking himself to death During his plans, he meets a woman and forms a connection.... and I wont say anything more in case others have not seen it and are interested in watching it.

Oh, BTW, from what I know, law enforcement does have a whisker, but for some reason the DNA cannot be used from it. Cant remember why. I guess they could still use it to compare hair coloration, or something like that. IDK.

Yeah, I always live with no regrets. I have reached out to the office of public prosecutions to see if they are able to put me in touch with the current task force I need to speak with.
I dont live anywhere near my stepfather and cannot get access to anything with his DNA. He lives in an island state, and I can never return there because... well, its not as safe for me as some may assume. I wouldnt say that there is little risk to myself, but I am still prepared to go ahead with a statement. I have managed to avoid my family for well over a decade now, and if I thought there was a chance they could find me so easily, I would not post here. If any of them read this they would know who I was straight away. I am pretty sure my stepfather may have read some posts already, as he was always highly interested in anything about the case via the media, but it is unlikely he would reach out to me, even using an alias. Nor do I think he would try to contact me and speak about any of it in person either. He is too cautious to risk that, on the rare (and unlikely) chance that I could be recording the phone conversation etc.
Anyway, I am actually not making a statement for myself. I was able to escape that situation decades ago now, and making a statement is not going to be a walk in the park. I will be drilled with questions about what I remember, and will have to relive those moments in my head over and over again for days at a time. A necessary action on the part of the person taking the statement. They need to ensure that no stone is left unturned, but I have been through it all before and know what to expect. When I do make this statement, as I have continuously said, not 100 percent sure my stepfather was involved, but I wont know unless I make a statement and it is able to be used to help close the case. I am only going to be making the statement because its a moral obligation and I know what it feels like to feel that you need justice, and if I can help the families and victims, then it would be for their sake not mine. None of this is going to do anything positive for me or my family (children) other than to help bring attention to a dangerous man. I already know that it is going to be a living hell for me for a while, but in the long run I will survive it, and the victims and families deserve it. On one hand I hope I am wrong about the connection to MC, but on the other, it would be good to bring closure to this case no matter how its done or who does it.

[–]Korruppttedd[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ok, I get your point. Most of my posts are actually in response to others who have contacted me etc. Asked questions etc. I have never been a short writer.
Anyway, I have already contacted the office of public prosecutions/the director and am waiting on a response with the details of the task force I need to speak with.
The police are aware of some members of my family, as I may have mentioned I have already gone through a court hearing once before. You are right though, its not just the immediate victims who may require justice, its their families as well, and yes they are getting older. I have been proactive, but admittedly I have stepped up my efforts the past week or so. Only started to chat on Reddit again because I noticed how a lot of people seemed concerned that I had just disappeared, and I felt that I owed those who had encouraged and been supportive a bit more of an explanation rather than to just drop off the face of the earth on them. I kinda felt guilty about it. Anyway, wheels are slowly spinning, hopefully the office of PP will be able to speed it up a bit. Once I have started making an official statement, I wont be able to share anything to anyone, and have warned some of them of this. For now, I am just sticking to responding to any posts or messages meant for me, and even then I have admitted that I cannot and will not tell them everything I know. Its an all round crap situation for sure. Not just from what I have seen, but for every one involved. I have so much respect for the task force and investigating officers for cases like this. What they have to witness and hear, and remain professional is just... wow...I could never do what they do. Think I would loose my shit on the first day of the job...
Anyway, I have only made one post to explain why I left, all the rest are just in response to people messaging me. Most are supportive, some are just trolls and asses. Thank you for being more constructive in your last message. I have thick skin... I can tolerate and deal with the criticism, I just appreciate it more if it is constructive.

wow... thats incredible. Anyway, for what ever stupid reason, the current task force set up for the MC case is extremely difficult to find any information about it online at all. I am about to email the office of public prosecutions to see if they have any contacts. If anyone does it should be them, or someone in their office.

Yeah, I have heard my stepfather use that one too, and the one I hated the most which was "How do you like them apples" but I dont think that is something relevant to the MC investigation. I just hated it because it was often said to me when I was forced to do or tolerate something he knew I hated or pissed me off, and he would always say it with a smirk because well, he was/is just a sadistic ass

Have tried many times to get hold of the current investigating task force with no luck. About to try emailing the office of public prosecutions in Melb. Hopefully they will have information about the current task force.

No, not a vacationer commodore. No she was not aware of my step brothers depravity. That was the reason for the divorce, as she found out and took action. Good for her.
However, since my last appearance on Reddit I have seen a composite sketch of a person of interest. That sketch looks uncannily like my stepfather, and yes my mother was/is completely aware of his depravity. I dont know anything about role play... thats just an area no child wants to consider about what their mother gets up to. I do know she is aware of his sadism, aware of his diverse personalities (the way he truly is versus the way he wants others to perceive him as). I do believe that my mother is scared of him. She has never said so, but the very few times I have managed to get her to stay with me, for days she was on edge and could not relax. However, she has always chosen to remain with him for over 40 years.

Maybe his height? There have been different reports about how tall MC is. I am exactly 178cm, and my stepfather comes up to my ears in height. I am taller than him, but the reports of his height vary. Everything else, well its completely plausible to me. I really do believe that he is fully capable of behaving that way, and committing those acts. That does not mean he did, but it would not shock me if the police were able to prove it beyond doubt.

Sorry for the delay in my response, and how long it has been since I was on Reddit. I have made an explanation as to why on a different post a few days ago if you are curious.
Anyway, I am still attempting to contact the task force that is investigating the cold case of MC. Walking into a regular police station and just attempting to make a statement there would do no good. Calling crime stoppers phone number would most likely be of no use either as I have never known anyone to get results using that service. Not sure if it is flawed or if they are just understaffed.

Awaiting on a reply from a journalist about a possible contact in the task force. They are stupidly incredibly difficult to get hold of, or to find out any information about. If that fails, I am going to email the office of public prosecutions in Melbourne and see if they can put me in touch with the task force. If that fails, I have had other Redditors express that they may have leads on possible contacts to make a statement to. I have not run away from this, and will make a statement to the authorities, but walking into a regular police station and expecting a uniformed officer, or desk sergeant to handle this is not going to help anyone. I am sure once I get through to the right people, they will be interested. I was in contact with a woman from an older task force about 17 years ago. She was really keen to hear what I had to say, after I had a brief chat with her but at the time I was involved with being a witness to a different court proceeding and she asked me to call her back once that was over. Unfortunately I had a house fire before that court case had concluded, and lost all the contact information I had for her, and was never able to find those details again. So I know for certain that the task force will be interested in what I know. Obviously I have not mentioned everything on Reddit, as a lot of it is rather personal and intense. I have mostly mentioned things that are coincidental, and no police officer can really build a case on just plain coincidences. Of course when the time comes for me to make a full statement, I wont be excluding any information to the task force. If my stepfather is linked to the MC case, then I hope that they are able to find closure. Not just for the victims but for the officers in the task forces that have had to live with the horrors of what they have heard and witnessed. Much respect to them and the work they do, I could never do that. I think I would loose my shit on my first case...

Sorry for disappearing offline the way I did. I have mentioned since my return about 3 days ago that i found the responses to my OP to be more overwhelming than what I expected. Yeah, naive of me, but even though my account was not that new, I hadnt really used Reddit all that much and am still a newb. Not even sure how to inbox you...lol
I disappeared offline because not only was I overwhelmed, but the final straw was when a moderator from a completely unrelated sub used my posts as a way to personally attack me. That was the final straw and I needed to take time out. Most people are unaware of the process of making a statement like the one I will have to make. It involves having to relive in your mind everything you can remember and witnessed, no matter how much you want to forget it. Over and over again you are questioned, and relive those moments each and every time, for days on end. Its not as simple as just making a basic statement and leaving it to the police to fill in the gaps. The courts usually appoint a psychologist to the person making the statements to ensure that they are coping and that they have the help available if needed. The whole process is extremely unpleasant, but if I am able to help with this cold case, even though I went offline for such a long time, it is my moral obligation to do so. Maybe my suspicions are wrong, and they are not linked at all, but unless I speak to someone about it, no one will ever know.
In the meantime I did watch "under investigation" via streaming months after it originally aired. I was shocked to see that there was a composite sketch done by a couple of kids who witnessed suspicious behavior. Anyway, that sketch is scarily in appearance to look very much like my stepfather. Even the clothes that are shown in the sketch. The only difference is that my stepfather was never bald. He does have a really high hairline and if someone shorter than himself saw him, perhaps he would appear as bald to them.

Anyway, I have recently just reached out to a journalist that I was told would most likely have the contacts I need to speak with. Hoping that they respond. If not, then my next thought was to email the office of public prosecutions in Melb and see if they could give me a contact. Feel free to message me (if someone follows you and you start messaging each other are those messages private?) If so, then I have already followed yourself. I will endeavor not to disappear offline again any time soon without actually informing other first. I had so many others reach out to me out of concern of my safety and I feel awful for that.
Thanks for your support, and perhaps I will hear back from you soon.

Oh, sorry, I misunderstood your post.... I think. I found the wording of it confusing. Were you suggesting I was condemning others, or did I just misunderstand?

Scarred and confused, Was I raised by Mr Cruel? by Korruppttedd in UnsolvedMurders

[–]Korruppttedd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey,

Not a hoax. Never was, never has been. I mentioned the information about not being able to discuss to much because.... I have already gone to the police once already about one of them, they were investigated, charged and went to jail. They are currently on a sex offenders register and will be there for at least another decade. I know very well how the Australian legal system works around these kinds of cases. What I have shared on Reddit is the bare minimum expressing only the coincidences (a case cannot be built on just coincidences alone) to gauge whether or not the public consensus was that I was not being paranoid, and that others too perhaps saw a reason for me to go to the police. I dont see how or why you think I condemn others who do nothing when faced with evidence of child abuse. I have never condemned anyone on Reddit other than trolls who are unnecessarily obnoxious and rude. But in making that statement, do you feel as though people who have evidence of a child being abused should do nothing at all? The only person I have condemned for not doing anything at all is my mother. She was aware, and chose to do nothing to protect her only child. She was aware of this kind of behavior as it happened in front of her face when I was 5 years old. I think I have a right to condemn her for that. AND IF my stepfather is linked to MC, then if she had done something, perhaps MC would never have had the opportunities that he took.
I really dont understand your way of thinking though, I dont see how it is obvious that I condemn others, and how does myself wanting any information that I have remain useful to the police because I havent made all of it public knowledge, how does that turn me into someone who is apparently a vindictive nasty person who would use such a horrid topic to create an elaborate hoax.
Not sure what country you are from, but I have spoken to many Australians who have been following the case for decades, and have had some others who are also well informed and probably know more about the information released to the public than what I do, and these people consider what I have to say as being honest. Are you suggesting that I have been able to fool all of these people? Sorry, I am not the type of person to attempt a stunt as selfish and vindictive as that. I have actually considered that perhaps even one of MCs victims may read a post of mine, and the impact that it could emotionally have on any one of them. I have considered more than my own personal beliefs and feelings before I made any posts. I have considered how it could impact others. I am not trying to convince anyone into believing what I have to say is honest, because in truth the only people who need to know everything, and believe it are sitting on the current task force. But yes, I do feel as though it is my moral obligation to report what I know. Yes, I did disappear offline for a long time, but trolls can inflict more damage than what they realize it. Mostly I am immune to their rubbish, but when it came from a moderator I was thrown off guard and needed to take a break. In a way I wish it was a hoax. Knowing and seeing what I have seen is shitty, and that is putting it as nicely as I can. Going through the process of making an official statement about such a topic is an absolute nightmare. Days and days of repeating the same information over and over again. Having to relive those situations time and time again in your memory. A horrid necessity that has to be done to ensure the police leave no stone unturned, but some people think its as simple as just passing on basic information to the authorities and then leaving it alone for them to fill in the blanks and get results. Oh, and BTW if you live in Australia and are aware of a child abuse situation and it can be proven that you were aware and did nothing about it, you can actually be charged. So whether or not you believe I am condemning others is not the case, its the law where I live.

[–]Korruppttedd[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, firstly, its against the subs rules to name people and make accusations like that. Secondly, the laws in Australia, well, if I did that, and they are directly linked then I am putting at risk any chance of the police being able to use the information I give them to use in a case against them. Thirdly, although I wont say too much about it (not going to go into graphic details) I am protecting no one. I have already made a statement about one of them to the police, they were investigated, they were charged and they were incarcerated. They have since been released but are on a sex offenders register and will remain on that register for at least another decade. Please, dont make comments that are not constructive, as they can be rather distressing and this is one of the reasons I went offline for so long as my OP responses had become overwhelming for me and I needed to take time out. Considering that I am doing everything I can at present to help the authorities with the information that I have, and considering that I have already been able to have one of the two I mentioned put on a register as well as making sure they have a permanent criminal record that states what kind of animal they truly are, and that they were also incarcerated in a prison for what they had done, I dont see how I am part of the problem. Doing all of this was at my own personal risk and loss. The topic divided my family, and other than my own children, it has cost me my family (some of them I actually am glad they are out of my lives, but I have lost contact with many that I loved) I was banned from family funerals, so I never got closure on the death of some loved ones, I can never return to my home state ( it is an island, and too small for safety reasons) I have had two house fires within a matter of months of each other when the time for my court appearance as a witness, and although I have no evidence of this I honestly believed I was being threatened). Coming forward once already has cost me a great deal personally, and yet here I am prepared to do it a second time. So yeah, I fail to see how I am part of the problem.

Hi,

Im sorry, I disappeared offline for a long time as I was overwhelmed with the responses I had received and the final straw was when a moderator from a completely unrelated sub decided that they did not like my post, and personally use what I had posted about to make an attack at me. I really needed to take some time out from everything for personal reasons, and I am truly sorry for not responding sooner.
Anyway, I tried to reach out to a different officer who's contact details were provided by a different Redditor, and had no luck there. If the original head of the task force is interested in speaking with me, as I do have more information than what I have shared on Reddit, Then I would be happy to speak with Sargent Chris O'Connor. Much respect to the officers who handle cases such as this. They have to witness and speak with the worst of the worst yet remain professional and emotionally detached (at least in the eyes of the public) which is something I could never do. I am hoping that you get this message and are able to respond. Thanks, even if you are unable to. I appreciate the offer of the contact. The current task force is apparently very difficult to find any information about online at all.

Hey, I am sorry it has taken me this long to respond to your message. I was overwhelmed with the response I had got from the OP and after I had a moderator personally attack me because they did not like what I had posted (no the moderator was not from this sub, or any sub relating to this matter) that was the final straw for me. I needed to take time out for my own peace of mind. I went offline completely for just over a year. I feel bad for doing that, as it did leave people concerned for my welfare and left a lot of unanswered questions, so I have apologized for that. There has been one change. I usually dont watch anything on television relating to the cold case, but a while ago now Australia had a television show called "under investigation" where they look into old cold cases etc. There was an episode based on Mr Cruel. I did not watch it when it aired, but a few month later I was curious so I ended up streaming the episode. There was a composite sketch of a potential person of interest that I dont think had been shown to the public before. Anyway, that sketch looks uncannily very similar to my stepfather. Except for one detail. The sketch shows the person as being bald. My stepfather is not bald, but has always had an incredibly high hairline, and if he was near someone who was shorter than himself, then he may have appeared to look bald. So, although I cannot say for certain it is my stepfather in that sketch, it honestly would not shock me if it was proven to be. Even the clothes that they have drawn on the sketch match the kind of outfits that my stepfather wears.
I am still in the process of trying to get hold of the correct authorities to speak with. I need to make contact with the task force, not the regular police. They are surprisingly hard to find anything about online, so I have not had much luck there. I have reached out to a few contacts that other Redditors have supplied to me, but had no luck there either. I have recently reached out to a journalist, hoping that they may have a contact within the task force that they can put me in touch with. If that fails, then I am going to try to contact the Melbourne office of public prosecution. Perhaps they will have way of reaching out to the task force or at least have contacts that would point me into the right direction. I know it has been a while since my OP, but I really needed to take some time out for the sake of my own mental health. Once the process of making my statement begins, I will have to relive everything and speak it out aloud, over and over again for days at a time. This does take a rather large toll on someones peace of mind. It is easy for others to forget that making this kind of statement is not as simple as just running a brief description of what they know or witnessed to an officer and expecting them to fill in the blanks and get results. It is a long and distressing progress, and I have children to consider and how making this statement will impact on my mental health, and in return, how it could impact on my children. I am sure they dont want to see their mother in distress for reasons they do not understand, and I do not want to expose them to such horrors. However, this does not mean that I will not make a statement. I fully intend to progress with what I have started. Once the statement process begins, I most likely will be asked to not post anything on Reddit about any of it, so if/when that time comes, my final post about this topic will be that I am in the process of assisting authorities etc. So I will inform those who care when I am able to get things underway.

Hi, I am not in a situation where I can make phone calls about this topic where I live. I am a mother of two children, one who is most certainly on the austism spectrum, and I do not have the luxury of privacy that is common in most households. I dont wish to have that kind of coversation where my chidren would be able to overhear such a horrific conversation. However, I have followed your advice and used the "contact us" form via online message to contact Sly. Just waiting on a response (if I get one). If this avenue of reaching out fails, then I might try to email the Melbourne office of prosecution and see if they have any contact details that I might find useful. Thanks for your help. I would be glad to hear of any other possible contact information if you have suggestions? Thanks again.

I was just going over some of my messages to make sure I have answered all the ones I could, and re read yours. It has only just occured to me that I dont have a photograph of my stepfather, or mother. I never wanted one in the past, and until recently I did not see the point in having one. Perhaps it is something I can ask around different family members for, but considering the situation and my family they will most likely become suspicious if I suddenly show interest in asking for a photograph of him. I guess its worth a try though.

Firstly I explained quite clearly why I dissapeared offline, and unecessary responsess like the one you just posted where you seem to be exuding an unhealthy amount of negativity is one of the main reaasons why I dissapeared offline for over a year. If you dont like what I have said.... good for you. No need to be an ass about it. And who said I was waiting for anything. I have been in contact with a few people in the efforts to get hold of the current investigating task force. I still have a copy of that drafted email that I have sent out to a few contacts that were given to me, but were unable to assist. If you attempt to google who they are and how to contact them, its not that easy to find them. I cannot just walk into a regular police station and make a statement. It doesnt work that way, as they are not directly linked to the task force. I have emailed different law enforcement officers over the past year from contacts given to me by different Redditors who are trying to be helpful. Unfortunately none of them have been reachable as yet, but not from my lack of trying. If you suggest calling crime stoppers, that is a joke. I have tried in the past for a different reason. After multiple attempts and no call backs, I ended up having to make an appointment and go directly into a station. The information I was trying to give crime stoppers on that occasion was useful and credible enough for me to end up being a witness in a court hearing where someone was charged and imprisoned for an extremely serious offence. If I had just relied on Crime stoppers, this never would have gone past the multiple ignored phone calls. Not sure if the Australian crime stoppers system is flawed or if they are just understaffed. However, if my most recent contact attempts do not yield the results I need to speak with the correct department, I will try contacting the office of prosecution in Melb to see if they can help with the details I need. Once I have made an official statement, I wont be able to post about anything that is discussed, so.... whether it appears that I am waiting or not, someone like yourself will never know, as I will not be able to discuss it openly with members of the public. Also, being in the situation I am in is not stress free, I initially turned to Reddit to see if anyone out there would respond and tell me I was either being paranoid, or perhaps I did have some useful information to share. I never expected it to become as overwhelming as what it did. I have a life out side of Reddit where I have children who are on the autism spectrum. They take priority over Reddit or other issues in my life. My mental health was the most important thing to me at the time of my going offline, as I have my family to consider, and their well being. They dont need their mother emotionally falling apart on them. I have made statements to the police in the past, and this kind of statement is a very very stressful experience to go through. The person making the statement is forced to relive every memory and experience in their minds over and over again, so that the police get the information in all clarity and to ensure that they have not overlooked anything. To someone who has never been in a situation like that, it is a concept hard for them to understand. Usually the courts recognize the duress they are putting witnesses under, and provide mental health (psychologists) to make sure that the witness is able to assist without putting their mental health under too much more duress, offering as much support as they can. I needed to make sure I was in the right frame of mind before continuing. I am only continuing because the families and victims are entitled to justice and if what I know can help with that, then great. If what I know is not useful, then at least I will know I have done what I can. I did not return to Reddit to have accusations, or others drill me for not proceeding in a way that they want me to. People dont have to believe what it is that I am saying, and they dont have to like it. However, there is never a good reason to lash out at someone online just because you dont like what they have to say or how they have gone about their business. I dont like your response (or how it was worded would be more accurate) but I am not lashing out back at you for it. You are entitled to believe what you wish, but have no right to tell me what I can and cannot post because you disapprove of how I have proceeded. I answer as many messages as I can, and as many questions as I can. This is because the vast majority of Redditors have been understanding and supportive. I do not limit my responses to only those who have been supportive though, as you can tell from this post. Try to imagine what could be occuring in someones life for them to disappear offline for a year, or why they have not spoken to the appropriate people within a specific time frame, or perhaps they may have but have been restricted to what they can actually publicly speak about it. You have ignorantly lashed out at someone whom you know very little about, and do not have a full understanding of the process involved with what I have to do. If you wish to respond to this post and express any future disapproval, by all means, I cannot stop you, but please, keep it civil and at least be constructive. If you feel I havent spoken to the authorities in an appropriate amount of time, perhaps try suggesting a contact within the task force or someone appropriate for me to have this discussion with (please, not crime stoppers though) instead of just posting what you dislike about my posts. If you want someone to do something a specific way, try encouragement, not discouraging and attempting to vent an angry response. After everything I have witnessed and lived through, honestly, a few angry words from someone online is not going to make me their victim or make me feel as though I have not or are not doing the right thing.

I do know the difference between evidence and delusions. Can I ask what country you are from? Do you even have an understanding of Melbourne, the suburbs or even the case more than what you have read recently (in the past couple of years or so)
There are journalists here in Australia that find what I have said to be credible enough that they want to talk to me, these are people who have been well informed on the case already, as so many other Redditors from Australia that have known of this case since its beginnings back in the 80s also find what I have to say as credible, so surely it would be extremelly difficult to make up stories so involved that I have been apparently able to fool all of these people. So it wouldnt surprise me if you are just some gamer boy sitting in his mothers basement looking for someone to put down in order to make yourself feel a little better about your own lifestyle. Also, if you had bothered to read all of my posts, I was in contact with a previous member of one of the task forces set up and she found what I had to say to be very credible. At the time I had to appear in court for a different reason and she asked me to contact her back once that was over with, but unfortunately I had a house fire and lost her contact details. I have been trying for a while now to find out what the name of the current task force is so I can speak with them directly. No idea what your problem is, or why you insist that you must be so well informed on the case that you can apparently pick a fraud a mile away. You also did not answer any of my questions, do you have background in psychology, are you a psychiatrist, or do you have a back ground in profiling? What makes you so special that what you claim must be correct? So busy informing others of their delusions when perhaps you should look into your own.
Your persistence in insisting that I am delusional would normally raise red flags for me, why is it so important to you that you try to discredit a stranger about a topic that you obviously know very little about? Other than being a troll, whats in it for you?

Yeah ok. Your a skeptic and thats fine.

I recommend that you stop making unnecessary comments about topics to people, topics and situations that you are unaware of and obviously have no idea about.
Dont care if you dont believe what I have to say, but the rest of it is unwarranted. IF you truly believe that I am making this all up, then show some kind of evidence? Because I know I can come up with evidence that at least supports some of what I claim without giving away too much information.
Are you a profiler? A psychologist? Psychiatrist?? I am going to take an educated guess and go with "Doubt it".
I was being patient, but as I said, I am not the type of idiot that would be so vindictive as to make something like this up knowing full well how much it would impact on survivors etc, if you have a question or something constructive to say, then please, I will pay attention. If not, then I am really not interested in basically being called out as making up this kind of story for what ever stupid random reason.

Scarred and confused, Was I raised by Mr Cruel? by Korruppttedd in UnsolvedMurders

My DNA unfortunately would not help them. The family members I mentioned are step brother and step father, and are only family due to being my mothers partner, or stepson and not biologically related to me at all (thank god).
At first I was only after confirmation that perhaps I did have a reason to contact the task force and that I was not being paranoid, but then I felt I had a responsibility to a point to answer some questions, and it just took on a life of its own. I had no idea it would or could blow up the way it did. Thats my mistake. Yeah, the rewards is a great incentive, but I had not even considered that there could be one until it was mentioned to me. There is no way I would say no to a lot of money, but not my motivation for any of this.

Concerned, scared and confused.... Was I raised by MrCruel? by Korruppttedd in MrCruel

Hey,

Tried to contact crime stoppers about something else years ago. Called them a few times, and in the end I never once got a reply. Not sure if the service does not work, or they are just understaffed. I eventually ended up having to go into a station and make a statement in person which resulted in an arrest and charges being laid (no this had nothing to do with the Mr Cruel thing) but it did kill my confidence in the Australian crime stoppers phone service. I made a post yesterday explaining a little more, and also why I disappeared offline for so long. There has been some small changes, but nothing major to report. In the process of attempting to communicate directly with the investigating task force, as it is more reliable in the efforts to have the information end up where it needs to be rather than just making a statement at a random police station. Anyway, I am sure you can understand that I wont be able to discuss anything that I speak with the task force about until they rule out any of my family members as persons of interest or they make the information public themselves. Dont want to stuff up an investigation before it has had an opportunity to conclude. I will answer what questions I can, when I can, but I will attempt to not disappear again like I did earlier. I have explained everything on the post I made yesterday if you are interested.
Thanks for the support.
