Jalajhia Finklea • October 21th, 2002

On October 20th, 2020, Jalajhia Finklea was getting ready to celebrate her 18th birthday with family. She lived with her mother in New Bedford, Massachusetts, and was a member of the Mashpee Wampanoag Tribe. She was last seen getting into the car of Luis Barboza, a 37 year old man she had been seeing. Some reports have stated that Barboza was known to the family, and was dating Jalajhias aunt at one point before taking an interest in the young girl.

After her disappearance, it became known to the public that Jalajhia was five months pregnant, and had been halfway through a two day medical procedure in Boston. Given the information, it is assumed the medical procedure was a late term abortion, and it is also believed that Barboza was the father of the unborn child. About a half hour after her disappearance, her cell phone was discarded on the side of Route 140 North in New Bedford, where it would be found days later. Barbozas cell phone turned on and off from that point on, and he deleted all social media platforms.

A warrant was issued for Barbozas arrest, and authorities traced his whereabouts through cell phone activity. He was active in multiple states in the following days including Cherry Hill, NJ, New York City, Washington DC, and South Carolina. He was eventually tracked to a McDonalds in Crestview, Florida, where he was in a shoot out with police and passed away. There was no sign of Jalajhia, and she still has yet to be found.

It's been 4 weeks since she was last seen, and over a week since her kidnapper was shot and killed with no more news. Jalajhia is 5 foot 3 inches tall, with curly brown hair, hazel eyes, and a triangle scar on her left cheek. She was last seen wearing light pajamas and slippers, and did not take any of her belongings with her. Anyone with information please contact either the New Bedford Police Department at 508-991-6360 or the Mashpee Wampanoag Police Department at 774-361-6045. There is currently a $1,000 reward for the safe return of Jalajhia Finklea.

UPDATE: It is with great sadness I need to update this post. On November 25th, 2020, police announced that the body of Jalajhia has been found in Fellsmere, Florida. No further information is available at this time, however the case is being investigated as a homicide. This case hits home for me, although unstated in the original post this happened in my hometown. This poor baby should have been protected by her family, instead everyone sat back as she was groomed by a 37 year old man known to her family. Tonight my heart is heavy, and I hope she rests in the sweetest peace.

This broke my heart to read. It’s sad to hear that no one protected her. I really do hope this poor angle is at peace now. 👼🏼♥️

The Emotional Manipulations of Making a Murderer

When I finished Netflix’s 10-part crime docudrama Making a Murderer two weeks ago, I gripped my head—actually gripped it, the way people do

When I finished Netflix’s 10-part crime docudrama Making a Murderer two weeks ago, I gripped my head—actually gripped it, the way people do on television. Not only had the state of Wisconsin bestowed upon the American people Ed Gein, Jeffrey Dahmer, Gov. Scott Walker, and Dungeons & Dragons (not to mention the incomprehensible 2014 “Slender Man” stabbing), but now it had added to those considerable gifts a tentacled law enforcement bureaucracy concerned more with covering its own ass than with the pursuit of justice. How was it possible for one man—in this case, the poor, diminutive, cognitively underprivileged Steven Avery—to be wrongfully convicted of rape, exonerated by DNA evidence after serving 18 years in prison, then framed by the same sheriff’s department that set him up the first time, and ultimately convicted of murder? The level of moral turpitude necessary to pull that off would seem to require all the world’s crooks come together and work overtime.

From the brooding cello and martial drums of the soundtrack (highly reminiscent of the intro for another show about wrongful conviction, the Sundance Channel’s Rectify) to the long pans of the weed-choked Avery Auto Salvage yard, everything in Making a Murderer spins around an axis of desolation and decay—moral, professional, and physical. If an innocent man can be railroaded by law enforcement twice in one lifetime, I thought, then Manitowoc County, Wisconsin, must be where virtue goes to die. Even the sky that hangs over the place looks like a steel door waiting to slam shut.

And that, of course, is exactly how the directors of Making a Murderer, Moira Demos and Laura Ricciardi, want me to feel. They have constructed every frame to extract from me a sense of moral outrage that is predicated—whether the directors admit it or not—on Avery’s innocence in the murder of 25-year-old Teresa Halbach. Which is why, days later, I am as frustrated with the series as I am compelled by it. The “good” characters seem a little too good, and the villains seem a little too arch. Something about the series just feels too clear-cut, too easy, in a way I suspect the actual trial of Avery and his teenage nephew, Brendan Dassey (by far the show’s most tragic figure), were not. That suspicion has only grown, now that a number of people mentioned in the film, including Avery’s ex-girlfriend, Jodi Stachowski, are giving interviews and many of the original court documents and transcripts from the case are circulating online.

Several critics have praised Demos and Ricciardi for their neutral, hands-off decision to present the Avery saga without a narrator, and there’s no question that the format makes for a more addictive series. In this way, Making a Murderer has more in common with the Oscar-winning Murder on a Sunday Morning and Soupçons/The Staircase, two crime documentaries by French director Jean-Xavier de Lestrade, than with the other crime dramas that invite most comparisons, such as the hit podcast Serial or HBO’s The Jinx. Slate’s own June Thomas noted that “the lack of voiceover [in Making a Murderer] makes the show’s indictment of the legal and law enforcement system around Avery even more effective; it lets Ricciardi and Demos communicate their message more subtly—without the willful instructiveness of ... narration—while still allowing viewers to feel as though we are weighing the evidence and deciding guilty or not guilty for ourselves.”

I strongly disagree. Viewers only feel as though they are deciding for themselves. In truth, the conclusions were set up for them long ago. Editing almost 700 hours of material into a taut 10-hour narrative for prime time (roughly 1.4 percent of the footage) necessitates abundant manipulation, but with no narrator at the helm, you are simply less aware of being manipulated. That is its own form of myopia—the tunnel vision of television, as it were—and it brings with it its own set of perils. We are being encouraged to make sweeping decisions based on minimal information—precisely the sort of rush to judgment that Making a Murderer indicts. One risk of such a gambit is that the viewer may feel lied to, or at least mildly cheated, should any glaring omissions surface later. Which I do, now that they they have.

One of the cardinal rules of the courtroom (and the newsroom) is: Don’t flinch. If there are weaknesses in your case, you should be the one to bring them up. What is dragged into the light can be explained and shelved, never to be brought up again. What is hidden, sidestepped, or glossed over will ultimately destroy your credibility, or at least call it into question. That’s a lesson I wish Demos and Ricciardi had taken more seriously.

Jurors in Avery’s and Dassey’s trials learned that, per the original criminal complaint, “handcuffs and leg irons” were found in Avery’s trailer (Avery said they were for use with his girlfriend, “like a toy”), and that DNA from Avery’s epithelial cells—not blood, but sweat, skin, or saliva—was found on the hood latch of Halbach’s RAV-4, the battery of which had been disconnected. A bullet found in Avery’s garage with Halbach’s DNA on it was fired from the same model of .22 rifle that hung over Avery’s bed, and Barb Janda, Dassey’s mother, reported that her son told her that large bleach stains on his jeans came from helping Avery clean his garage floor. What’s more, Halbach’s camera and cellphone were found with her remains in the burn pit behind Avery’s trailer, along with rivets from the jeans she was wearing when she went missing.

The issue of the cellphone is especially problematic. The series implies that whoever accessed Teresa Halbach’s phone on the day she died (which both Halbach’s brother and her ex-boyfriend admit to doing) might have been involved in her murder. But anyone with physical access to Halbach’s phone would have also been able to access her voice mail. Is that why this piece of evidence was left out?

Avery’s attorneys, Dean Strang and Jerome Buting, built a heroically convincing case that the Manitowoc County Sheriff’s Department planted some, if not all, of the evidence that seemed to indict Avery. It’s entirely possible that these other items were planted (or at least contaminated), too. If that is true, then Avery is owed a new trial, several times over. Surely Buting and Strang can explain this other evidence, since the prosecution’s theory of what happened and where is highly implausible. So why not put these answers out there for the audience to evaluate?

There are more conspicuous omissions. Multiple people living on the Avery property, including Steven’s brothers, Chuck and Earl, had criminal records involving physical violence. Avery’s own defense team outlined their backgrounds in one of its motions. The only reason not to bring this up (since these are at least two viable alternative suspects) would be to stay in the good graces of the Avery family.

What’s more, at the time of Halbach’s disappearance, Steven Avery was being investigated for the alleged 2004 sexual assault of a teenage female relative, who claimed that Avery threatened to “kill her family” if she told anyone about it. Worse, Dassey alleged in a phone call to his mother that in the past Avery had touched him in places that made him “uncomfortable.” Stachowski claims that Avery beat her repeatedly, and Penny Beerntsen, who mistakenly identified Avery as her attacker in the 1985 rape, says that Avery called her up shortly after his exoneration, asking for money to “buy a house.”

Whether or not the above pieces of information are legitimate is anyone’s guess—Avery was never tried, let alone convicted, of the alleged 2004 assault, and Dassey was so confused that he may well have said anything that anyone asked him to—but it is clear that this story goes much deeper than we have been led to believe. In the spirit of transparency, I would have liked to have known these troubling details, because I would like to feel certain that the sense of disgust that swelled over me at the end of Making a Murderer, as well as my belief in Avery’s innocence, came from having analyzed all the data. Given these new revelations, I can’t be sure that’s true.

This isn’t a referendum on artistic truth or a screed against “bias” in nonfiction storytelling. Of course there is no such thing as a view from nowhere, and the best documentarians, like the best journalists, follow their instincts and speak from their consciences. To quote the great Walter Lippmann, “There is but one kind of unity possible in a world as diverse as ours. It is unity of method, rather than aim; the unity of disciplined experiment.” In other words: Come down on whatever side you want, but make sure that your audience knows that you did your homework.

So, it’s not bias that unsettles me. Rather, it’s bias posing as impartiality that makes me uneasy. Because so much seems to have been left out, I now have lingering doubts that the directors of Making a Murderer ever gave the other side a genuinely fair hearing.

Joe Berlinger and Bruce Sinofsky, the directors of the superb Paradise Lost trilogy, were consistently upfront about the injustices they felt were committed against the West Memphis Three, yet they were still able to secure interviews with the investigators who wanted to keep the three behind bars. It was largely because of the global attention the trilogy received that those injustices were (at least partially) corrected when Damien Echols, Jason Baldwin, and Jessie Misskelley Jr. were released from prison in 2011. Sometimes, artistic advocacy is a very good thing, but only when it feels complete.

Whether or not you loved or hated the evidentiary back-and-forth of Serial, Sarah Koenig excelled as an investigative reporter when it came to putting all her cards on the table. The detectives and prosecutors involved in Adnan Syed’s conviction declined to speak with her, but Koenig still managed to give the prosecution’s theory of the crime real consideration, as the jury in his trial would had to have done. That added depth and dimension to her story.

So is it fair for Making a Murderer to characterize both the people of Manitowoc County and the jury that convicted Avery as members of a mindless lynch mob if they were looking at a different, murkier set of facts?

Had Demos and Ricciardi offered a more layered portrait of Steven Avery, it would not have rendered the suffering of Halbach’s and Avery’s families, especially that of Avery’s mother, Delores, any less powerful. Those empty fish tanks that Allan Avery stares into as he contemplates all the things that might have been would be no less heartbreaking. The sheriff’s department’s obvious conflict of interest and the unctuous, Ned Flanders–esque sanctimony of Ken Kratz, the former Calumet County district attorney who was later forced to resign after a sexting scandal, would have been no less maddening. But a fuller picture would have demanded that the audience consider two other horrifying scenarios: that serving 18 years in prison for a crime he did not commit had turned Steven Avery into a predator, and/or that police may have framed a guilty man. In both, the state remains morally complicit in shoring up a corrupt legal system that is stacked against those who don’t have the resources to fight it.

There’s an interesting moment in Making a Murderer’s final episode, when Dean Strang says, “If I’m gonna be perfectly candid, there’s a big part of me that really hopes Steven Avery is guilty of this crime. Because the thought of him being innocent of this crime, and sitting in prison again for something he didn’t do, and now for the rest of his life, without a prayer of parole? I can’t take that.” But as a viewer, I felt the exact opposite: I wanted Avery to be innocent so badly that the bits and pieces of information that trickled out after the series aired were hard to swallow.

Because if Avery were exonerated of one terrible crime and went on to commit another—if a broken system broke him, too—then we may be robbed of our pity for the Averys and instead be forced to really look at them. Like the Whites of West Virginia and so many other families across the United States, they live on the margins of society with no financial, psychological, or emotional tools to navigate the world. They will get caught in its snares again, and again, and again, because they are poor and uneducated, and something about them makes people uncomfortable. They will grow up being called “trash,” they will drink and fight, but mostly they will learn to keep secrets because no one listens to them. They live in your town, and in mine.

Luis Garavito is a Columbian serial killer and rapist who targeted young boys who were either orphaned, poor or homeless. He would disguise himself as different characters, such as a priest or a farmer, before luring the boys away by offering them work or a small gift. Once he had gained the child’s trust, he would take them for a walk and waited until they got tired before raping and torturing them. Most victims had their throats cut and were then dismembered.

Many of the victims were not reported missing due to their circumstances and, despite bodies turning up all over Columbia, authorities did not begin investigating until mass graves were discovered in 1997. It was now evident that a serial killer was at large, and the murderer was dubbed ‘La Bestia’, which translates to ‘The Beast.’

In February 1998, a note with an address written on it was found at a crime scene. The address was that of Garavito’s girlfriend, who gave police a bag of his possessions, including pictures of young boys and journals which detailed the murders. Garavito was arrested on April 22, 1999, after attempting to rape a young boy. He denied being ‘La Bestia’, but DNA samples secretly taken from his cell matched DNA found at one of the crime scenes.

Garavito has confessed to the murders of 140 children. However, he was charged with 172 murders, spanning over 59 Columbian towns and seven years. He was found guilty of 138 killings, with the other cases still ongoing. Garavito was sentenced to 1,835 years imprisonment, but Columbian law limits imprisonment to a maximum of 30 years. His sentence was further reduced to 22 years after he helped police recover the bodies of his victims.

You are against the death penalty aren't you? Can you explain why? I just don't understand why anybody would be against it...

I’m against it because capital punishment is a heinous remnant of governments past and it really has no part in modern society. Capital punishment isn’t a deterrent to crime, innocent people may - and have - been executed, it costs more for someone to be sent to death row than it would if they were sentenced to life without parole, death sentences aren’t fair as someone could have killed 50 people could get life imprisonment while someone who has killed only one person could get sentenced to death, it’s racist, being sentenced to life in prison also stops them from committing crimes so what’s the point in killing them? Capital punishment is purely about revenge and only creates more victims. It also makes absolutely no sense to kill someone for killing someone. To agree with the “an eye for an eye” logic is illogical, hypocritical, and extremely archaic.

There is an infectious presence of racism in the death penalty and racial disparities plague the justice system. There have been countless studies that indicate racial bias when it comes to sentencing. The Baldus study showed that defendants of colour were 1.7 times more likely to receive the death penalty than white defendants in similar murder cases. It also showed that murderers of colour with white victims were 4.3 times more likely to be sentenced to death than whites that killed people of colour under similar circumstances. A 2007 study in Connecticut showed that defendants of colour receive the death penalty at three times the rate of white defendants. In Philadelphia, the same study found that defendants of colour are four times more likely to be sentenced to death than whites. This same study has been replicated in a number of other states and showed very similar results - people of colour are given the death penalty more often than whites. There was not once State in America that indicated otherwise. There is a clear pattern of evidence that indicates racial disparities in the charging, sentencing, and imposition of the death penalty in America. In fact, DA of Texas Chuck Rosenthal resigned after sending and receiving a number of racist emails regarding the death penalty - out of the 32 cases he sought the death penalty, 29 defendants were people of colour.

The department of corrections stated that housing death row inmates costs more than twice as much as life imprisonment inmates. The average cost of defending in a federal death case is around 8 times more expensive than in which the death penalty is not sought. Texas, for example, is spending $2.3 million PER death row case. California would save approximately $90 million per year if they were to abolish the death penalty. This money could go towards something more beneficial, such as victim advocacy and assisting in solving crimes.It’s a waste of money. Literally hundreds of millions of dollars are being wasted on a response to murder which is calculated to be carried out on a small amount of unlucky people per year and which has done nothing to stem the rise in murder, which is therefor ineffective.

Murder is a heinous act, regardless of who has committed it and it should not be sanctioned by the government for any reason. Life imprisonment is punishment -  punishment that doesn’t see innocent people killed. People tend to forget that the children, grandchildren, parents and spouses of murderers on death row are just as innocent as the victim and their family. The death penalty just causes more trauma and heartache for loved ones. Furthermore, the appeal process is a long and winding process and keeps the killer in the media and keeps opening up old wounds. Life imprisonment means they are locked away and quietly forgotten about. Capital punishment makes people infamous.

The death penalty isn’t as black and white as some people like to imagine, and I chose to not support a racist, biased, hypocritical, flawed system that has sent many innocent men to their deaths as opposed to a system which is more effective and less barbaric in which inmates are sentenced to life imprisonment. Furthermore, I believe that capital punishment violates the eighth amendment’s prohibition on cruel and unusual punishment.

The Eyam Plague

Back in September of 1665, the small village of Eyam (located in England) became host to a deadly plague.

A bale of cloth containing fleas with the plague arrived at Eyam. It came from London where this disease had already taken thousands of lives. A tailor’s assistant called George Viccars was said to have opened the bale and hung the cloth in front of the hearth to dry, unwittingly stirring the disease-ridden fleas contained within the parcel. 

George died and the disease started to spread. The small village had an estimated population of 350 people. Many wanted to leave and get away from the plague but ultimately decided that in order to keep the disease from spreading, they would quarantine themselves. No one was allowed in our outside of the village. Many were reluctant but decided to stay, effectively choosing death but sparing nearby communities who had not been introduced to the disease.

Ultimately 260 people died but thousands of other lives were spared.

HERE is a very detailed source going over the Eyam Plague. It goes into accounts of people who lived there and their stories. I highly recommend reading this

To all my black followers and friends, stay safe.

Also, I would like to add that black lives have always mattered, will always matter.

It’s awful that we even have to say that because it should be a given. However, we need to say it loud and clear for the racists.

We cannot be silent.

[image description: the first tweet is by user trillxmomma and reads, in all caps, “HF STUDENT JUSTIN COSBY TAKEN INTO POLICE CUSTODY LAST NIGHT AND NOW HE IS MISSING”. attached are to the tweet are two photos. the first photo is a screenshot of a facebook message from user grace tosi. it reads “Justin Cosby is missing. He is one of ours. He is apart of the HF community. HE IS MISSING. He was arrested, and from what I heard, also beaten because he squirted CPD with water guns at last nights protest. That should not result in being beaten and arrested. If you hold any type of power, use it for good now. Right now. Make your calls. Help his family find him. He was arrested around 8:30 pm and that was the last time he was seen. His date of birth is 8/14/2000. Are you still wondering how you can help all that’s going on? HERE IS YOUR ANSWER.” the second photo attached to the tweet is a photo of justin cosby. he is a young black man with short textured hair. he is wearing a dark blue zip up jacket that has a blue “M” on the chest.]

[image description: the second tweet by user “imyagirleva” and reads “Justin Cosby was detained by the police last night at the protest, and no one has heard from him since 8:40pm. THIS WAS THE LAST TIME HE WAS SEEN. His mother needs help finding him. She has called around and heard nothing. Please help!” attached to the tweet is a photo of a large group of chicago police men, at least ten cops, surrounding and restraining justin cosby. justin is looking at the camera in the photo, and he is slouched over while the police have his hands tied and are holding him up.]

Reposting this because it’s something every parent on earth needs to see... just because we’re all on lockdown in our own homes doesn’t mean your children are safe from predators!

18-year-old Stephen Lawrence was born in Greenwich, London, to Jamaican parents who had moved to the UK in the 1960s. His father was a carpenter and his mother worked with children with special needs. Stephen was a dedicated teenager who studied technology and physics. He dreamed of becoming an architect.

On the 22nd of April, 1993, Stephen spent the day at school before playing video games at his uncle’s house with Duwayne Brooks. At around 10:30PM, they walked to the nearby bus stop to catch the bus back home. Moments later, a group of six white youth started walking towards them, calling out racial slurs. Before Stephen or Duwayne had a chance to react, the pounched on Stephen and stabbed him in the collarbone and shoulder, severing arteries and penetrating a lung. Stephen and Duwayne managed to run away from the scene but Stephen collapsed around 130 yards away and bled to death. Duwayne said that when officers arrived on the scene, they had a very nonchalant attitude. “I got the impression they were repulsed by the blood or just didn’t want to help…”

In the days following the murder, a local gang of five white youths were named as the suspects. They were Gary Dobson, Neil and Jamie Acourt, Luke Knight and David Norris. They had been previously involved in racist knife attacks around the area. Despite the fact that the prime suspects had been named, none were apprehended until weeks later. Detective Superintendent Brian Weeden, the officer who was leading the investigation, told the public he hadn’t made an arrest earlier because he didn’t know the law in regards to making an arrest under reasonable suspicion. The charges against the five were subsequently dropped citing insufficient evidence.

In 2006, a cold case review commenced and looked at blood found on clothing of Dobson; the blood was determined to belong to Stephen and that it had deposited fresh. According to police, this new evidence was only found because of advancement in forensic science. The initial investigation into the murder was marred by a combination of professional incompetence, institutional racism and a failure of leadership by senior officers. It was later discovered that the inquiry was bungled on purpose, which led to all of the killers evading justice. An inquiry into the original investigation led to the landmark ruling that organisations could be “institutionally racist.”

In 2012, Gary Dobson and David Norris were convicted and  sentenced to life in prison after “new and substantial evidence” tied them to the murder. The three other men who were involved in the murder - Jamie Acourt, Neil Acourt, and Luke Knight - were never charged. In April of 2018, it was announced that a national day of commemoration for Stephen will take place every April 22nd.

Things like this break my heart... Stephen did nothing to instigate this attack, the group just pounded on him because of his skin colour.
