Hi everyone,,I am very sad this evening and just have to share this.
About 40 miles from my home, a young woman has been missing for about 10 days. Today they found her body. She was in her late 20's-early 30's. Well loved in her community. She was pregnant. Her boyfriend was arrested today after they found her body in a shallow grave. I suspect more will surface and we will learn of how abusive he was.
What has struck me about this, aside from how tragic and sad, is the police reported today that she sent a text message to a friend or family member the day before she was supposedly killed telling them that "he took me to a field in the middle of nowhere and I have no idea why". The friend responded and told her to take a picture of where she was. Later, that field picture is part of what tipped off the police as to where her body may be as the text and pictures were still on her phone.
She SUSPECTED something wasn't RIGHT with this guy! Something inside her was triggering a "sense" that made her think something wasn't right with the situation or with him.
I read the book "The Gift of Fear". It talks about when murders like this happen, there are "so many signs" prior to it happening that "trigger" that sense that something isn't right. I can't help but wonder if she would be alive today if maybe she had acted more on that "gut instinct" she was feeling? AND please don't misunderstand me, I am not blaming her for what happened. I suspect none of what happened was her fault. I can't help but feel that he was ABUSIVE towards her prior to that day. And it just hurts inside me, that perhaps he was and she couldn't do anything to help herself, or maybe she did. We don't know. I wonder, did she perhaps talk herself out of what she was thinking and feeling? Had he manipulated her and abused her to the point where she doubted herself?
I just had to share. If you can, read "The Gift of Fear". It taught me to really listen to my gut instincts. It talks a lot about how a species has a "gut instinct" so it can survive. We all have that in us. ABUSERS do everything they can to make us doubt that instinct. They manipulate us so that we talk ourselves out of what we know to be suspicious. Or what we know to be right.
I am so saddened by this act of violence. I would not be surprised if we learn that he was abusive towards her before he killed her. My thoughts and prayers are with her and her family and her community. I can only hope he rots, because dying would be too good for him.
What is your "gut instinct" telling you today? Trust your gut..I promise you, it won't lead you wrong.
Hope this helps anyone who may be suspicious. Thanks for listening!
