Absolutely. My bff was married to the guy who injected his own child with HIV, to get out of paying child support. That child is a grown man in his 30s, doing wonderfully, an advocate for people with HIV. He wasn't "cured" but his levels are undetectable. His father has been denied parole 3x now.

My mother was prepared to abort me in 1961. Abortion was illegal back then. Luckily I survived. But I grew up with two evil stepsisters who tried to murder me at least three or four times. My father told me about the first attempt when the stepsisters put me out on the back porch in the middle of winter to die. I was only two months old. My parents went out in the night and left me in the care of the 11 year old and eight year old stepsisters care. Some care alright. My father told me about that when he found me on the porch I was alive but I was the colour blue. I almost died from that murder attempt because I developed pneumonia I was a very sick little baby and I almost didn’t make it. There were many attempts to get rid of me through my childhood by my two stepsisters, one of them died from an aggressive cancer 10 years ago. But my mother was the cruelest . When a mother wants to murder her baby and hates the child so much that she got her own offspring to do her dirty work, it’s a terrible thing. She had the option her and my father to give me up at the hospital. She wanted to but my father refused to sign the papers. I have always wondered what kind of a life I would have had if they had of let me go. So yes, I know all to well how cruel families can be. You are more likely to be killed by a family member than a stranger in fact 70% more likely. Rest In Peace little Roy. 🌹🌹🌹

Hi JD! Poor little Roy Rickey, what a horrible short life that precious child lived. The stepmother was pure evil and all the days she lived in prison wasn’t long enough for what she did and how she treated little Roy Rickey. No child should be abused, neglected or killed. My husband and I adopted a child that was abused. I can’t tell you the nights this child was tormented with nightmares. I would sleep with her so she would feel safe. Anytime we would meet someone in public she would hide behind me. I took her to a therapist for 2 1/2 years. Thank God the therapist was able to help her. We showered her with love, affection and stability. Today she is a perfectly beautiful woman. I have never regretted adopting her, but thanked God for putting her in my life. R.I.P.

I’ve always been sensitive to environments and I just wanted to experience what I was told was one of the most beautiful backdrops this country has. I’d already been to Utah and Joshua Tree, and the Dakotas. But, the eeriness of this area came through me in such a way that I HAD to research and it was scarier after then during. So much dark history. Such a large expanse of land and a lot of it is just dark. This story is just along the lines of all I have already read about this area.

Thank you Deb!

Love your stories, this was a bit eerie for me as my grandfather, great grandfather and great, great grandfather were all named James "jim" Handy

Thanks so much !

That poor child. What a brutal death. He did nothing wrong and his sister was being mistreated as well. I assume the father let the stepmother do whatever she wanted so he could keep her from leaving…at the expense of the children. 😢

I am a stepmother of 17 year old boy I know place as his stepmother I don’t overstep my place He has a mother My stepson doesn’t like going to his grandparents house (My husbands parents) But he enjoys spending time with his mothers family and has a good relationship with my family. When my husband parents come around my stepson doesn’t stay long He will say hi but then wants to leave If I have a celebration of any kind and his dads family is coming He will not attend But if my family have a party or get together he attends happily I don’t push my step son and prove him coz he doesn’t want to talk about it What I do is I respect his wishes I don’t push him to spend time with his grandparents He has made it very clear he doesn’t want much to do with them. He is also 17 So he is old enough to choose who is in his life

You sure are a terrific storyteller JD, I could listen to you all day.
