What’s more significant about drop cloths than a bloody knife or a mop?


What normal family owns those? I mean, the workmen bring those with them when doing their work, but they always clean up once they have completed the job.


Clearly, NORMAL families never do their own home improvement projects.


lol right? I’ve bought drop clothes to do big painting projects and while I don’t own a mop, it’s obviously a normal thing to have at home. This is definitely a totality situation but a drop cloth is not a smoking gun.


It's the timing of the purchases, as well as the fact he lied to investigators about his whereabouts when he was making them.

I own several drop cloths, but I bought them along with a few gallons of paint, a new roller cover, and some painter's tape. This was just before I took a few days off work to paint my living room, not a few days after my spouse went missing. My internet searches the day before were about whether I needed to use primer if I'm covering a lighter paint color with a darker one. And I didn't tell police officers I was getting ice cream for my kid when I was really at Home Depot.


Oh for sure, I just thought it was funny that PP said "Drop cloths. BOOM. He did it." Off all the evidence why on earth would drop cloths be the thing that stands out most?


As an amateur follower of true crime for many years, I don’t think I’ve seen a pattern of facts/evidence so damning so quickly as in this case. It’s basically a manual on how to look as guilty as possible.

This is just terrible. So many women killed by their husbands or domestic partners. Why don’t they just divorce them? Their poor children. It’s so tragic. The woman in PA is also missing and has a son.

I was thinking the same thing. I can see why this would be a big story in Boston but not a national story. I wish more attention were given to the missing/murdered Native American women. Guess they're just not as telegenic or sympathy-worthy.

If you think it is, then maybe you should be spreading the word, instead of disparaging and judging others.

People follow what they identify with - it is not rocket science.

Stop showing up on each of these threads with the same old tired trope - do something about it - spread the word in other ways, to other boards/sources! Your coming here and trying to disparge and judge the people who read this site is only hurting your message.


You're right. It's not rocket science. It's racism. It's a shame that you, and others like you, only see the tragedies/issues of those you identify with. It's a shame you can't find anything about Native women to identify with - if nothing else, they are human.


I mean honestly it is actually more like human nature. When presented with two cases of women being abducted most people will feel the same way. But when you have news media run by predominantly white people, then when an attractive white woman goes missing, most of the news media relates to her, literally relates to her (I TOO am a middle aged white mom who is attractive with children, this could happen to ME), and so it gets obsessed over. I don't think being affected by something happening to someone very similar to you is racism, I think that is just how human brains work.

The fact that WOC are less represented NATIONALLY and broadly has to do with systemic racism which is what happens when this phenomenon takes place in hiring. People naturally hire people who seem like them for the same reasons. And when this phenomenon repeats then you have no representation in the media and then no one relates with the WOC so they are promoted less.

IMO attributing this to individualized racist thoughts really hampers the ability to solve the problem because it really isn't about people racistly not caring about WOC, it is about 100 tiny little decisions along the way that come from very subtle bias that changes the direction of the conversation. Its about every rock that makes a river bend, not the last rock that has no idea why the river chose it.

I think PP was saying that if you want to change it you should try posting about missing WOC, elevate their voices so people hear them. Because it is the rare person that will go LOOKING for sad stories, most people just react to what the media apparatus puts in front of us.


It's distressing that you don't recognize how you consume and amplify the end product of racism. Even if you, yourself, aren't racist, by amplifying and exclaiming about this story - to the neglect of other stories - you, and others like you, are supporting and reinforcing the decisions of a racist system.

You and PPs are telling me that and the other posters that we should be doing more about it. Yet, while acknowledging the systemic racism, you refuse to be held accountable for your part it in. smh

I'm done.


I didn't see this post until today. I have done nothing at all about this story besides write the above. I was just observing, and I don't promote any stories like this because honestly they are hard for me to think about, no matter what the ethnicities involved.



But don't you see how your inate, unacknowledged racism is still contributing to systemic white racism in America? THe first step in working on a problem is acknowledging your problem.


I feel like I wrote a long post about how everyone has subtle innate racism that contributes to systemic inequities and then you got mad at me? I really don't get it sorry.

Yes! One thing that all these perps have in common - they sure do think they are ABOVE the LAW!!

Spoiled rotten growing up. You can be poor and still spoil your kid rotten.

For starters, kid never does anything wrong.

Now guess which parent usually does it.

This sounds like a convenient way of blaming the monstrous actions of this man on the parenting by his mother, a woman. Maybe you should just hold men accountable for their actions instead.

Right.

Misogyny gets inserted in total defiance of logic or the facts of the case.

It is this murderer's mother's fault that he killed the mother of his young children.

Do you think possibly, you have some women or mommy issues, to come up with that contorted explanation???????????????

Living the high life on other people's money, travelling around Italy, dabbling in con games including art forgery and now a little murder to boot. This guy is basically Tom Ripley (another Boston native) but without the talent.

Yes, given the shocking lack of common sense, it’s amazing he lasted as long as he did.
