Meeting A Friend of A Friend.......of Ed Gibbs and Marian Baker

God Bless the world wide web.
Seriously.
Without it I wouldn't be planning a trip back to Lancaster to meet a new but uncannily close friend.
Without going into the details, he and I came to learn about each other through research I've been doing off and on for the past year or so.
Somehow and for some odd reason, we've developed a friendship that intrigues the both of us, I believe.
I asked for his help on a "project" pulling together loose ends from my research, and he responded wholeheartedly.
Since that time, a second project, my revisiting the Marian Baker murder, caught his attention as well. And out of the blue, he contacted me to let me know he has a friend...who was a good friend of Edward Lester Gibbs.
He also knows someone who can tell me about Marian Baker.
Wow.
I can't wait to meet him.
I think we have much in common.
He's a parent and it's clear he loves his kids, and kids in general. His family has had a very successful and prominent role in the history of Lancaster.
He's a family man, very well known, and philanthropic in his activities.
I promised to loan him a book that he's had problems locating.
There must be a tie between us. I have never, ever considered allowing "that book" out of my possession in forty years :)
Marian Baker was murdered in 1950. So many years have passed.
Any yet, in September of 2009, I have been contacted by people from several states who have information to share with me. They have told me what they know, what they remember, where they have been and what they believe led to the brutal murder.
Some are torn between wanting to share and also wanting me to enjoy the full thrill of the chase.
They give me tips or clues and gently push me in directions I need to go.
I am so grateful to have been contacted by all of them.
I so appreciate the suggestions and tips they've offered to me. They've been down this road before and shared with me some very valuable advice that will open certain doors for me.
Now, I just need some 72 hour days, the ability to teleport to various states and locations and I'll have it made! lol
I'm still "on it". I just have been so preoccupied with classes and homework and work in general that my time has been limited. I'm still searching for that organizational balance I need to get it all done. That goal post is a bit fuzzy :)

Angie Funk's Show.....A Poor Attempt At Keeping Her Eye On The Prize

Angie's backed against the wall as I type...Lie after lie is being told or else she simply replies, "I don't remember."
Did any of us really expect her to give up any truth? No.
Apparently her tight alibi isn't quite so tight. I maintain that the only reason she has yet to be charged is the lack of enough evidence to secure not only an indictment but an iron-clad conviction.
With the evidence against Mike circumstantial, if he walks, he can never be charged again for killing Jan.
If they forged ahead and prematurely charge Angie the same thing could happen.
It's bad enough that it could happen with one of these evil shells but for both of them to get away with murder would just be too much.
This is one of the most depraved situations most have ever heard of.
Clearly Randy is still harboring strong feelings for Angie, while Angie is harboring strong feelings for Mike's money.
And in the middle of this muckfest are all the children.
For what all of them have done, they should be incarcerated so they can't hurt them any further.
Angie is pedalling as fast as she can to end up on top, and to end up Mrs. Angela Lynn Roseboro.
I think it is very important that she was asked how far her home is from Jan Roseboro's home.....
pay attention here.
That wasn't a filler question to kill some time.
There is WAY more to this story and I pray to God that the investigators and Mr. Steadman at least suspect it. They have the rest of Angie's life to dig up more evidence. And stranger things have happened. In other cases, people have come forward long after the fact. Evidence has been uncovered that beforehand was unknown.
Mike really ran into a doozy this time. And I hope that sooner or later they both pay for their part.
Mike said he would give up everything he had to be with Angie. Good job Mike, at least there you're a man of word. You've lost it all already. And the barracuda in those sexy white pants still has a firm chomphold on your ass. Right where your wallet used to slide into your rear pocket.
