The Most Important Defence Witnesses in the Menendez Case

Lyle and Erik Menendez said they’d killed their parents in fear. After a lifetime of physical and sexual abuse, their parents had threatened to kill them to keep them from going public with the sexual abuse, and they believed it. These are some of the most important witnesses that validate Erik and Lyle’s story.

Diane Vandermolen

A cousin of Lyle and Erik who lived with the family for several summers. She witnessed a lot of physical abuse that went on in the house. Most importantly though, she witnessed sexual abuse. She saw Jose showering with Lyle and Erik. She also testified that when she was 17 and Lyle was 8, he told her he was afraid to sleep in his room because his dad kept touching him.

Marta Cano

Lyle and Erik’s aunt and Jose’s sister. She witnessed her brother abusing the kids, shaking them and punching them, among other things. She witnessed Jose forcing Erik to hang from an exercise bar when he was a baby. She witnessed Kitty refusing to feed her children. She also witnessed Jose telling Erik he was going to give him a massage. Both Lyle and Erik stated the sexual abuse had started under the guise of massages after sports practice.

Edward Fenno

Lyle’s university friend who stayed with the family for a few months. He testified that when he would be hanging out with Erik in his room, Jose would kick him out. That he would spend hours in the room, that Edward was not allowed near the door, and that Erik wouldn’t be seen again all night. This is very important corroborative evidence that Erik’s sexual abuse had continued to age 18. Edward also stated that nothing could be heard through the walls in the house, which goes against the prosecutors theory that the maid would have heard the arguing the days before the shooting. He also witnessed Kitty abusing Lyle, even as a young adult.

Andy Cano

Erik and Lyle’s cousin. He testified that Erik had told him he was being sexually abused several times throughout their childhood. At the time, Andy hadn’t understood what Erik meant by “painful massages”. Andy also said that Erik had become frantic when Andy had touched a jar of vaseline in his room. Saying “it’s not for that”, when Andy had tried to put some on his skin. Erik said his dad had always kept a jar of vaseline by his bed his whole life, and used it during the abuse. A jar of vaseline can be seen next to Erik’s bed in the crime scene photos of the house.

Alan Anderson

Another cousin who had stayed with the family for a couple summers. He witnessed and experienced abuse by Jose and Kitty. He saw Kitty attempt to cut Lyle’s face with a razor blade. He saw Lyle being forced to play tennis with a shoulder injury, and also saw Jose showering with Lyle and Erik. He heard his cousins being beaten in their bedrooms, and saw the bruises on them. He testified that when Jose was alone in the room with one of the boys, nobody could go anywhere near the door. Diane Vandermolen, Kathy Simonton, Marianne Cano, Marta Cano and Edward Fenno said the same thing.

Charles Wadlington

Erik and Lyle’s tennis coach. He witnessed Kitty and Jose verbally abusing their children, and testified that both boys seemed afraid of their parents. He said when Erik got an ingrown toenail, he was hysterical at the thought of his mother finding out Charles had helped him treat the injury. He said the boys were very emotionally immature and had interests of children years younger than they were. He expressed his love for Lyle and Erik on the stand, and that he had suspected they were being abused physically.

Judalon Smyth

The ex-girlfriend of Dr. Oziel. He was the therapist Erik confessed to, and the prosecutors star witness. She disproved many of Oziel’s lies. For example, he claimed that Lyle had threatened him at the elevator door of his office on October 31st, 1989. Judalon was there and said Lyle never threatened him. Judalon recorded many phone calls with Oziel, in which he admitted he was blackmailing the boys to try and get their money. He also asked her to pretend to be Erik on tape and make threats against his wife, and admitted his notes of Lyle and Erik’s therapy sessions were not accurate. In one call, he repeatedly uses the word “thorns”. Smyth said that Oziel had hypnotized her and programmed the word “thorns” as a way to make her forget things. Oziel can be heard on tape asking Lyle and Erik to let him hypnotize them. She characterized Oziel as manipulative and abusive, just as Lyle and Erik had.

Why I’ve been consuming all the vampire media I could get my hands on.

I wanted to make a comic about a vampire and his human helper, but while I have a pretty good grasp on vampire folklore I knew next to nothing about modern vampire tropes.

Just to set things straight from the beginning, protagonists does not equal heroes in this case. It’s meant to be a look into the lives of two very complex people.

I have a lot more pages planned for Hank and Eli so if you like what you see, please let me know by liking and sharing and all that good stuff. Not because I want to hold the rest of the story hostage but because I’ve accepted that my ADHD brain needs positive reinforcement to keep up the enthusiasm.

[violenceismyanswer]

As much as I love the suave human seducing vampire trope we’ve seen it over the years I really like seeing them as what they really are. Monsters.

This small taste of Eli and Hank made me very eager to know more about both of them. I really hope you post more about them.

Meghan Murphy was just banned from Twitter and we should be worried

For those who don’t know, Meghan Murphy is a prominent radical feminist and the author of Feminist Current. Today, she was banned from Twitter for stating that men are not women. She has been temporarily suspended in the past, but this time it’s permanent. In addition, Twitter changed it’s rules to BAN misgendering and/or deadnaming. That means that something as simple as saying that transwomen are biologically male or using a female pronoun for a transman could get you banned on Twitter for hate speech. Twitter is silencing women. I will not stop speaking up. Fight to make your voice heard.

@paperwillowbee

We clearly are disagreeing if you think Breonna Taylor’s death was an just an accident. I’m sorry I didn’t interpret your rambling rant the way you wanted it to be interpreted, but it’s pretty obvious you didn’t understand my point because you think it’s the same as yours.

[violenceismyanswer]

Cannon’s death is tragic and we should be sad, things like this shouldn’t happen, but he’s getting justice. His killer was caugh, arrested, and charged within 24 hours and he was denied bail. He’s not getting out and he’s not going to get away with what he did.

People like Breonna Taylor haven’t gotten justice. That’s why there aren’t protests for Cannon because there’s nothing to protest.

Stop using his death to be anti-Black Lives.

[jadedaceofspades-deactivated202]

People who are trying to make this a race issue need to wake the fuck up. This isn’t a race issue. It’s a “why are children being killed senselessly” issue. Breonna was a victim who was shot and killed by officers during a raid to the wrong apartment. I want her to get justice since the police went to the wrong house, but it was an accident, unfortunately. It should never have had happened. But that’s the fact of that matter. I know people will get mad, but that’s the truth. However, in Cannon’s situation, his death was pre-meditated. He was shot execution-style. A 5 YEAR OLD SHOT POINT-BLANK IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD. WHY?!

Both Breonna and Cannon are victims of stupid ass decisions made by the people that killed them. That’s something we should all fucking agree on, correct? Cannon’s death should not be used for some political fucking gain, unless you wanna talk about how are we gonna save all these kids that are being kidnapped and bought and sold to the pedophiles. You people wanna get political about a child’s death? Don’t make it about race. Make it about the truth.

Cannon was killed for being a child. Point Blank.

[violenceismyanswer]

You know killing people on accident is a crime too. Especially since they lied to get the warrant to search the apartment and lied on the incident report afterwards. Cannon’s killer is in jail and will never get out, Breonna Taylor’s killers are still free.

[jadedaceofspades-deactivated202]

Yes.. I am.. I’m VERY well aware of the circumstances of the case. In fact, if they get charged, it’ll be for a 2nd degree murder charge and they won’t get out for a long time because of the circumstances of the murder that happened. Darius is being charged with 1st degree murder. That’s an automatic 25 to life. I know what the system does, as much as it sucks at times. I’ve learned about it intimately. 

Unbeknownst to you, I’m just as pissed off about it as you are. But my point still stands with what I said before. Don’t make Cannon’s death about race because that’s not the problem here. People are being killed for no reason. I’m not here to argue with you. I’m just pointing out a truth people don’t want to hear.

[violenceismyanswer]

You’re not that familiar with the case if you don’t know the warrant was for Breonna’s apartment, but they got it by lying then lied after the fact. You don’t accidentally lie.

I didn’t make Cannon’s death about race, other people are asking why there aren’t protests for him like there are for BLM basically using his death to try and discredit it. If his death occurred any other time when there weren’t protests it would just be another tragic death, but since he was a little white boy killed by a black man people want to use it as an excuse to be racist.

Racial issues don’t disappear just because you don’t want to talk about it.

@cut-the-gordian-knot @qwertyu858

Do you know how long it took to track down, arrest, and charge Cannon’s killer? Less than 24 hours. I can’t say the same about George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Tamir Rice, Elijah McClain, Aiyana Jones, Trayvon Martin, Ahmaud Arbery, and countless others. Maybe take a step back and look at the bigger picture.

[cutthegordianknots-deactivated2]

Sure. Regarding Breonna Taylor, Tamir Rice, and Trayvon Martin, at the very least, it took less than 24 hours to find their killers. And regarding Trayvon, George Zimmerman was certainly culpable and probably should've served some time just for being a dumbass, and yet I'm hard pressed to look at all the evidence and try him for literal murder. Fuck him, don't get me wrong, but don't talk to me about that case without looking at the actual fucking evidence.

Regarding the rest , @violenceismyanswer , nice name btw, I have a different but loaded question for you.

While it is true that police kill black people at about twice per capita that they kill white people, and while this is certainly something that should be looked into, let's look at tyre other side of the coin. Can you name three or four white people killed by police? You named seven black people off the top of your head after all. I'll even be nice, and not give a timeframe, and ignore the "countless others" part, but I'll need to leave out stupid white people cults killed by federal agencies. Because, you know, they were stupid and probably didn't deserve to die but I didn't cry about them either.

[violenceismyanswer]

Tony Timpa, Danial Shavier, and Jeremy Mardis are 3 white people killed by police off the top of my head. Tony Timpa was smothered to death like George Floyd and police suppressed the body cam footage for 3 years, it was in my hometown area and there were protests there after it was released. Daniel Shaver was shot by police while begging for his life by police, black lives matter protester for him. Jeremy was a 6-year-old autistic boy that was shot by police while he was with his father, one of his killers only spent 21 months in prison. I can look up more.

It takes less than 24 hours to find out when a cop kills someone on duty because they have to report it, but it takes longer than that to get them arrested if they get arrested and charged at all.

[cutthegordianknots-deactivated2]

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you didn't need to look those up, in which case kudos. The only one I knew was Shaffer.

So let me get to my point, and I promise this isn't goalpost moving, this was what I was getting at. BLM does have a point, but I can't get behind them specifically because they focus on the victims, but only specific victims (usually, by nature). The ACAB point is easier to get behind, even though I disagree with it literally, because it addresses the people doing the killing.

As a side note, do you have any evidence BLM protested for Shaver? I don't think you're lying but I don't remember hearing that, and I'm on mobile which has deleted pending posts before when I've gone to do research before. I'll go check after posting too but I'd still like to see your source if I can.

[violenceismyanswer]

I understand where you’re coming from in regards to BLM, but the reason victims are focused on is to give a face(or multiple faces) to the problem. Hearing about police killing someone and hearing about police killing Breonna Taylor rings different because Breonna Taylor is a person and someone is just someone. The families of victims are at protests, vigils, and rallies too.

ACAB means All Cops Are Bastards and that’s because it’s a bastardized system. There are several cases of good cops who report misconduct being mistreated and pushed out of the force by other cops which shows people can’t just try to change things from within.

White cop, white victim and Black Lives Matter activists who cry, 'Enough!' | Opinion

When video footage was released Friday of a white Mesa, Ariz., police officer shooting dead a white man after the victim begged for his life

[cutthegordianknots-deactivated2]

Trust me, I know about ACAB, before it was even a thing. I knew a guy, old enough to be my grandfather, who was a retired cop. Her told me a story once about him and his partner showing up to a call about some guy being arrested. He wasn't even sure what the guy did, but when they got there, they saw two cops holding the guy spread eagle on his car, and the other responders were coming up and taking turns kicking him in the groin. He turned to his partner, said they don't need to see this, and left.

I asked him why he didn't turn them in, and he told me that doing that would risk them not showing up if he needed help. It's basically a fucking government run gang.

As for why victims are focused on, I get it. But perpetrators have faces too, and frankly I think doing both (talking about victims and those who killed them) is better. But TBF I have a hard time getting behind any movement, political or otherwise, because they all have elements of extremism, and I'd prefer not to willingly bias myself. Having a lot of people reacting to anything will inevitably lead to groupthink and mob mentality. It's...just how people work.

And thank you for your source.

[violenceismyanswer]

There’s nothing wrong with avoiding extremeisms, my personal feeling is that if you think something is wrong and unjust you should at least say something because most problems don’t go away unless you address them. I’m not going to run around punching cops and burning police cars, but I’m going to speak out about the terrible things they keep getting away with.

I think the focus on the victims instead of the officers is because it’s not just the officers that dit it, but the entire force that let the officers get away with it. You’re right though, more effort should be put into exposing the killers too.
