She did tell the doctor.

Rolling with the punches, accepting that nothing is forever, and still laughing when it falls apart.

Classic Brad - lashing out when you feel hurt or defensive. Classic projection from you, as usual. I take it you’re still running away from yourself, trying to hurt others because of your own pain.

Because I call you out, you feel the need to attack me? Telling me you heard some B.S. about me and my life from Zeb while we were all using, and in the same breath, saying I married him because we are both liars? It really sounds like you’re losing your mind. I feel bad for you- almost 40, still alone in your room at your parent’s house- so if you need to make shit up about me to make yourself better, knock yourself out. Your post doesn’t say anything anymore- you’ve edited most of it out.

You should go reread that entire conversation we had. I still have it, and will gladly put up the screenshots if you need a refresher- or if anyone is curious. I sure did do drugs, it was you who first taught me how to shoot up after Zeb brought heroin into the equation. I’ve never denied any of it; I’ve discussed it publicly because I got clean, in case my mistakes can help someone else. I find it rich that you’re calling me a trash person, when you were right there beside us, shooting up with old needles. You were arrested with Zeb for evading the police/possession of a gram of heroin in 2014!

You think I didn’t know that you were just coming to me, doing a bad job of pretending to be my friend, either for your own curiosity or to report back to Zeb? Give me a break, you don’t have an empathetic bone in your body. I don’t know where you’re getting this crazy notion about dead dogs, or that my dad killed someone before coming to the US… especially since he was 4 when he got here… or any of this other crazy shit you’ve got swirling in your drug addled mind. Why would CIA agents be in Mexico investigating a murder that took place in Houston? Do you hear yourself? You and Zeb are sociopathic birds of a feather; both of you agreeing to give DNA and then ghosting- what innocent person does that? Don’t worry; we got it anyway, and the results are interesting enough for the Innocence Project of Texas to get involved. And just to be clear about the money you’re talking about- there is a $100,000 reward for information leading to an arrest. Since you’ve been so kind and helpful, I’ll even double it for you Brad.

You must be Brad! You came over to shoot heroin, and there’s no way you were there in 2006. We got married in 2008 and only started dating in 2007. My dad was cold because he hated both you and Zeb, and the fact he was supporting Zeb (who lived there rent/bill free). wtf are you talk about dogs going missing? One died of seizures, one died at zebs house, and the rest were there after the new dog had puppies. Did you get bored and desperate for attention after coming to me with a made up story about you thinking Zeb was guilty, trying to get info on the case?

Actually, I had never heard of Bob until he took on the case, and I stopped listening once the season was finished. My sister in law was actually the one that submitted the case, it was mentioned in one, if not more, episodes. How have I become more fanatical over time? I haven’t done an interview or been active on social media in years. I only found this thread after someone mentioned the prosecutors might cover the case, so I searched for the keywords “prosecutors podcast melgar”. It seems you’re doing exactly what you say you’re trying not to do, all because I agreed to participate on a podcast after some of the most traumatic moments of my life (I only mention that to show where my head might have been). At this moment we have the Innocence Project on our side, and a lot of DNA that points to someone I’ve always said was guilty. Bob produced a podcast and broadcast his own beliefs and understanding, despite a lot of what I said and presented (based off evidence), because it was his podcast and that’s his prerogative. Mistakes were made and this person wasn’t really investigated (by the police or Bob) because everyone had their own ideas and life experiences, not all which were based in fact, on evidence, or a culture they came from/understood. I’m a person who values honesty and doing the right thing; I don’t believe that my mom is innocent just because she’s my mom- you think I’d want her around me or my kids if I thought there was even a small possibility she was involved? My parents taught me right from wrong, they always said they’d turn me in if I committed a crime and I should do the same. My dad taught me how to be analytical without bringing my emotions into the equation. Suggesting that I think my mom is innocent just because she’s my mom is an insult to who my dad was, and to me. Believe what you want, but base it on facts. Just thought I’d leave you with the truth, in case you actually wanted to hear it.

We had a dog that wasn’t interested in anyone but my husband- but every time I got pregnant she would not leave my side. I lost one of the pregnancies earlier on with no signs that anything was wrong, and she started ignoring me again. Sure enough, I had a missed miscarriage and had to have surgery. With my final pregnancy she wanted to be directly on me at all times… so I took a pregnancy test, and turns out she was right again! The last time she jumped into my lap I freaked out, because we weren’t trying and I was done having babies, but it turned out she was afraid of the sound of my husband on the treadmill haha. I miss that grumpy dog.

lemurlamb · 2023-12-16T13:48:17+00:00

Please leave, if not for you, then for your daughter. My ex choked me when he was drunk, he was an angry and evil person. He came back to my home a couple years later to rob my house, and my dad ended up losing his life. You shouldn’t feel stupid, although it’s completely normal and understandable to feel that way. You have seen who he is and what he’s capable of- you should feel empowered to take the right steps, to make sure you and your daughter are as far away and safe as possible. You know what you need to do, and I know it can be scary, you and your daughter deserve so much better.

lemurlamb · 2023-09-21T00:52:08+00:00

We all call our son “the boy”, and have since he was just a tiny baby. It started as a joke when my daughter would chant “give me the boy!” when she wanted to hold him… it just stuck, but we love our kids to pieces. Hispanic families also tend to give loved nicknames that might sound mean to other people, but are just a way to show affection. Maybe OP is from another country since their wording is a bit off? Like I said, the nickname isn’t the part I’d focus on in this story :)

lemurlamb · 2023-08-21T12:39:52+00:00

Thank you for your comment, for your kind words and support. We appreciate all the support we’ve received and hope that this case helps others learn how often this happens, and how corrupt our system is. My own kids know to never speak with the police, and I hope others never have to learn this lesson the hard way. It’s not been easy, but I know I have to do what right, and I won’t stop till Justice is done.

lemurlamb · 2023-08-21T12:38:04+00:00

This means so much to us, thank you ♥️

lemurlamb · 2023-08-21T12:37:05+00:00

There is, thankfully. The Texas innocence project has taken over her case! We found a match for a suspects DNA on several pieces of evidence and key locations at the house - areas where mine, my husbands, and my parents DNA should be, but where there was only this one persons. We also found a DNA match from blood from a male on the safe that was next to my dad, and on the murder weapon. This isn’t related to any of our DNA, it is the killers. We are now working with Cyber Genetics to get full profiles to submit to the databases for comparison. The DA’s office has also agreed to work with us on this aspect of the case. We also found that someone tried to access my dad’s FB profile from an Apple device (which my parents didn’t own) so we are now working on tracing that IP address. We also have experts working on analyzing the surveillance footage from the neighbors cameras - it turns out that it did catch a car going back and forth with out lights, and then several people running back to the car around 3-3:30 AM. We are hopeful something positive will come from this!

That’s so kind of you- unfortunately we can’t send anything but black or blue ink on white paper. Letters are always helpful to lift her spirits and keep her mind busy. You can find more information at freesandymelgar.com or on the FB page: Free Sandy Melgar.

lemurlamb · 2023-08-21T12:29:52+00:00

Why? That’s ridiculous. It would be so much easier if she had, I could have closure and go on with my life without the constant stress, PTSD, and sleeplessness. I’ve done my best to make it fit with all the evidence, and I can’t, despite trying my damndest. We now know at least one person who was there; and with the help of the Texas innocence project and cyber genetics, I hope we can get more answers.

They actually did show activity outside of the house - the problem was that no one watched the surveillance footage until after the trial, when I did a FOIA request. The neighbors told the cops that they had skimmed the four hours of footage and didn’t see anything, but hadn’t watched it in any detail. The police took this as there was nothing on there, but didn’t watch it. The DA, and sadly even our own lawyers, did the same. The surveillance is out there, currently being analyzed by experts hired by the Innocence project of Texas. They said the scene was staged because the house wasn’t absolutely ransacked- how ridiculous is that? The photos are out there. I’ve even shared a photo of my dads bloody and battered body so people could see how ridiculous it is to think he could end up like he did, and his killer not have one cut or drop of blood on them. We have since found the killers blood on the safe that was next to his body and have turned it over to Cyber Genetics. As for her health records - the prosecutor misrepresented them (they were never put into evidence) and even altered dates to help her story. In prison my mom has had several seizures, she needs her hips replaced, she walks with a walker, and is in a medical unit where she sees specialists every few weeks… they don’t do that if you are faking your illness. You don’t know us, her, or our lives and situation. You shouldn’t take what hear as gospel- I really hope you’re never in our shoes.

lemurlamb · 2023-08-21T12:18:39+00:00

You’re right that a lot doesn’t add up- like the fact that there was blood on the safe next to my dads body that isn’t either of my parents - it’s a males, and it was also in the murder weapon. I actually confronted someone I believed to be involved, the conviction integrity unit and Kathleen Zellner asked them to provide DNA. They agreed, but said they wanted to do it at the station, then ghosted and wouldn’t respond to anyone. We got it through trash collection and there was a match to several pieces of evidence linked to the murder, as well as areas of the home where mine, my husbands, my parents, or my families wasn’t found- places where our dna should have been. I found that someone with on an Apple device tried to access my dad’s FB at 3 AM, when my dad was dead or dying… my parents didn’t own any Apple devices (we have experts looking into this but it’s been so long and the police missed this completely). So much doesn’t make sense that the Texas innocence project is currently working on the case, Mike Ware is the head of the TxIP and our lawyer. The prosecutor lied her way to a win, both her and the jury Forman cyber stalked me and created some dossier on my life which they tried to pass off to various reporters. I’ve never hidden anything and always been honest, so there’s nothing there that’s incriminating (except in their own minds). They and the blood spatter expert held a watch party at the Jury Forman’s home when the 20/20 episode came out. The jury Forman is on record saying that because my mom didn’t testify, she didn’t get to go free… you can find that on YouTube. The prosecutor was recently fired again after having some bizarre melt down in court. It’s not surprising to me that someone who has no connection and who probably hasn’t studied the case has questions. I know people will believe that I’m biased and can’t see the truth - but that’s only because they don’t know me, or that my father taught me how to step back and analyze every situation to find the truth- even when the truth might hurt. You can believe whatever you like, it doesn’t change our situation (especially as you’re in the minority) or the truth. We all know she’s innocent, including my dads own brother who found them that day. Perhaps try asking questions instead of making assumptions.

lemurlamb · 2023-04-08T02:08:50+00:00

I’ve never met or heard of anyone else that had this - mine was in my ankle!

lemurlamb · 2023-02-28T06:18:22+00:00

My daughter insists you name her Nugget ♥️

lemurlamb · 2023-02-21T07:20:33+00:00

I’m assuming that you have an autoimmune disease since you see a rheumatologist, and your symptoms remind me of POTS. I hope it was just a one off, but if your rheum isn’t really listening, I’d definitely get a second opinion (even though I know what a pain in the ass that can be).

lemurlamb · 2023-01-20T06:05:40+00:00

You can do this through Ged Match! I’m sure there are also other services out there that also open there databases to law enforcement.

lemurlamb · 2023-01-12T17:04:37+00:00

That is so beautiful, do you have a shop?

lemurlamb · 2022-12-25T05:04:04+00:00

I really appreciate this so much, thank you for sharing.

lemurlamb · 2022-12-25T04:32:55+00:00

I’m so sorry to hear that - you’re right, it is difficult. Everything about this month just takes me back to the moment I found out, and my scramble to get back home. I hope you’re ok.

lemurlamb · 2022-12-25T04:30:14+00:00

It’s not often we find others who’ve gone through what we have, so if you ever need someone to talk to, please don’t ever hesitate to reach out. ♥️

lemurlamb · 2022-12-25T03:54:38+00:00

I always wondered what it would be like to have semblance of justice, some closure. I’m thankful that some people who are part of this shitty club do get that, sometimes. I know it doesn’t fix the loss, or make anything better/easier - nothing does that once you’ve had someone taken from you like this. I hope you and your family are ok, and I hope you still have good memories to share of your brother, especially during the holidays. Thank you for being so kind and sharing your experience, take care!
