EEK...I got a Jury Summons
Yesterday I picked my mail up from the box at the corner. Much to my horror, surprise, dismay (definition of "eek" from Oxford Dictionary,) there it was...a summons to appear for jury duty! And not just any jury duty...the grand jury of my parish (what counties are called in Louisiana.) That's the reward you get for things like voting and being an adult. You get a chance to do your civic duty.

In the expansive world of true crime, where mystery and investigation captivate audiences, the tale of Emily Nestor and her podcast, Mile Marker 181, took a dramatic turn, sparking a scandal that left the true crime community in disarray.

The podcast gained traction as it explored the possibility of a murder conspiracy, drawing in fans, sponsorships, and widespread attention. However, as the podcast progressed, so did the rift between Nestor and the Davis family, culminating in an unexpected twist — Nestor publicly declared her alignment with the official record, asserting that Davis' death was, in fact, an accident.

Deadly teenage friendship
Juliet Hulme and Pauline Parker Youth is a time when passion can run dangerously wild. The desires and fantasies of a person, especially a young person can take on an obsessional nature. Christchurch New Zealand, fifteen-year-old Juliet Hulme writes feverishly to her best friend across town. Pauline Parker, 16, desperately awaits her letter. These young girls are caught in a fatal obsession. This was a brutal murder. She didn't want her mother around. She hated her. It's the early 1950s, Juliet Hulme is overjoyed to see her closest friend, Pauline Parker. She found in Pauline, an intensely close friend and they did form a very close friendship. Almost straightaway she said to her mother, mother I have found someone who has got just as strong a will as I have. That's the start, the pair share a passion for art and literature, both ghosts were very lively. Julian in particular, very herbaceous. I think, in combination they were able to devise a make-believe world, a wonderful creative outlet for all of their talents and energies. They would pretend to be figures from medieval fantasy worlds and historical figures. It appears that in Juliet's case she had an excessive and extreme fantasy life and appear to be bad at assessing when to stop. So, that leads me to believe that her fantasy life did a whole lot more for her than reality did.
