Psychology Professor Accused of Murder

Norma Patricia Esparza has been accused of murdering her alleged rapist two decades ago.  She claims that her ex-boyfriend made her do it. Her words?  She was “dragged, pressured, bullied, [and] intimidated” into doing it.

She never reported the rape nor did she go to police after the murder. She actually claims in her words “I didn’t know that he had been dead.” 

She then says she was forced to marry the man who bullied her into the beating, which resulted in murder.

Esparza was living in Geneva, Switzerland, and came back to the U.S. for a conference last year and that is where police arrested her. Oops.  Perhaps she got a little too confident?

When I watch Esparza talk, I hear reminiscent behaviors of Jodi Arias–the soft meek mouse voice trying to portray how harmless she is. That always a huge tip off something is amiss!   But when you listen to her words, she couldn’t back pedal any more obviously into a hole.

I do not believe Esparza was a victim in the murder at all.  This will be an interesting case to watch go to trial.

David Camm: 3rd Trial Sets Him Free

/3 Comments/in , /by

David Camm supposedly found his wife and kids shot to death inside their family garage back in September of 2000. You can hear his 911 call above. David Camm faced three trials, in which two of the verdicts were overthrown, and Camm was given new trials. The last trial ended in October of this year, and this time David Camm was vindicated and sent free.

Many of you have searched for my blog and wondered why I never wrote about David Camm. When I agree with the verdict or don’t have enough evidence in a case, I typically don’t write about it. I only write on cases when I disagree or am requested to do so by popular vote!

And with the new court decision finding David Camm innocent, I have to disagree.

I do not believe David Camm and the amount of red flags that he sends off is quite disturbing to me.

In the 911 call alone, he whines rather than expresses true and sincere emotion. He never does cry, act sad or surprised. He gives us a high-pitched voice, too, which people often use when they fake distress.

It’s also interesting how David Camm had no interest for an ambulance to come (ignores the Post Commander in the 911 call repeatedly), but said he wanted help from family across the street.

David Camm had blood on his shirt–droplets–which he claims he got from moving or coming in contact with his daughter after she was deceased. Blood typically does not transfer in “droplets” by contact–certainly not 8 droplets. There would be smears.

As for Charles Boney, I believe he and Camm know the truth, and that each of them were involved. 

I could write a lot about David Camm and why I don’t trust him…if only I had more time!

Check back later this week for my thoughts on Dateline this week on Lottie and Waseem.  Who is the ultimate manipulator?

McStay Family Found Dead: Brother Speaks Out

/4 Comments/in /by

The disappearance and murder of the McStay family in southern California in 2010 is a perplexing case.  What happened to them? How did the family end up murdered–only to be discovered nearly four years later in two shallow graves?

No one to date has the answers.

A reader has sent me a video of the murdered father’s brother, Michael McStay, speaking out at a press conference shortly after the bodies of his brother and family were found and identified this month.

The first thing you will notice is Michael is acting all stressed out and shedding tears, but we see no scientific evidence on his face to support he is feeling either of these.

I am immediately pinged that his eyebrows and forehead are nearly frozen.  I can’t help but question if this man has had Botox.  But at 1:43, I see he can show stress in the forehead and it only appears once!

He also appears to be speaking hesitantly, with pauses, which typically accompany someone who is crying hard and flooding their sinuses, but his sinuses are clearly not flooded.  This is a red flag.

Michael also laughs in this interview at the end, and tries to stop himself at which point he buries his face in his arm. It’s very odd and notable behavior.

After watching this video of Michael, I would want to investigate him further without question.  He is on my radar.

Curious about this case, I went and read some more details and I found a really odd statement by Michael, according to People magazine.  They reportedly quote Michael from the Orange County Register saying in 2010 a few weeks after his brother and family disappeared, “My fear is that I’m looking for two adult shallow graves and … my two nephews’ crosses.”

If Michael said that, and it can be verified, um, he has some serious explaining to do!! He knows something without question and isn’t telling us all he knows to be true.

Happy Thanksgiving to you!

Here is wishing you a very Happy Thanksgiving–for those of you who live in the U.S. or celebrate the holiday elsewhere.  And a special day for those who don’t.

I am so grateful for all the people who contribute to my blog with ideas, thoughts, critical thinking, and even those who challenge our thinking by playing the devils advocate.  You have all enriched my life in amazing ways and made me a better person for the experiences you have shared with me.

This Thanksgiving, I am very grateful for all of you.

I am also deeply grateful for all the opportunities I was given this year to share my message with many, many professional and outstanding hard working people in the law enforcement community.  I was blessed to meet many new people.

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your loved ones!

P.S. My goal is to try to write more on the blog again…I’ve missed it!

Jodi Arias’ Former Cellmate Talks: Is she telling the truth?

/in /by

FOX 10 News | myfoxphoenix.com

Jodi Arias’ former cellmate, Cassandra Collins, is talking to the media.  She tells of how Jodi wants revenge against prosecutor Juan Martinez if she gets the death penalty.

Cassandra also says that Jodi manipulates people getting them to defend her in prison (as shown in the video).

Do I believe Cassandra? 

I do–100%.  What Cassandra says is 100% consistent with a psychopath and their behavior.

Cassandra also talks about how Jodi was surprised that Martinez didn’t ‘love” Jodi.   I suspect Cassandra took the word love to mean romantically, but what I think Jodi was saying is “Why hasn’t Martinez fallen for my spell like other men — in other words, why doesn’t he like me like all the other men in my past?

As a manipulative psychopath, she has manipulated more people than we’d ever want to know, and she is baffled Martinez didn’t fall under her charm like all the others.  She can’t grasp someone saw through her after experiencing her charm firsthand.  Does that ever give you a clue at how successful she was?!  I’d hate to know how many fell for her B.S.

Jodi Arias will be a threat to society her entire life.  Her psychopathy will no go away, though experts do say psychopaths mellow after 50.  We’ll see.  I would never turn my back on Jodi Arias.

Ever.
