Mireya Alejandra Lopez - Arizona



Mireya Alejandra Lopez, 22, from Phoenix, drowned her 2-year-old twins in August of 2015. She then attempted to drown her 3 year old stepbrother before her mother found and stopped her.

It was early in the day when Mireya took her twins to a downstairs bathroom of her Phoenix home and held their heads under the bath water until they stopped breathing. She took them from the tub, wrapped each in a blanket and carried them upstairs where she laid them on a bed. That's when she took her stepbrother into the bathroom.

Mireya's mother went into the bedroom and saw the twins laying in the bed. At first glance she thought they were sleeping but upon further speculation found she could not wake them. She tried resuscitation maneuvers and called 911.

While attempting to revive the boys she heard commotion in the bathroom and rushed in to find her daughter attempting to drown her 3 year old stepbrother.She had to struggle and fight with her daughter to take the boy from her but she succeeded and he was unharmed.

When police arrived Mireya readily admitted what she did saying it was because no one loves them or her and she thought they would be better off if they were dead and at peace instead of dealing with the life that she had and assumed they would too.

News reports say Mireya is manic depressive, psychotic and schizophrenic and has been taking medications for those illnesses.

Darlie Routier Texas

I was contacted by a penpal of Darlie Routier's who gave me some of the most recent advances in her case to share with you all. I began writing to Darlie in December of 2005 and she is one woman whom I will never understand how she got behind bars. Really. You know what else? With all the information ALREADY out there about this case, in addition to the newly discovered info, I think if you can't see this poor woman's innocence, you may just be an asshole. So many legal flubs, so much question and police innuendo that turned out to be nothing. So many fingers pointed and road blocks thrown up, I am surprised this case isn't used in other countries to point to the clusterfuck we call a justice system.  I believe Darlie could have been released ages ago if the state had done the necessary DNA testing. Sadly, Texas has tried to stop it in every unconstitutional way they could pull out of a bull's ass. BUT- there is hope on the horizon. This from Camp Darlie ...

Heather Birden Connecticut

Holly Aeschlimann Holly Aeschlimann, 19 was murdered in Connecticut in April of 2015. This case is amazingly close to that of Rachel Wade. Holly and her killer, Heather Birden, 20, had a longstanding dislike for each other. Heather had stabbed another girl, a juvenile, once before in 2014. She was  held in Niantic Correctional Facility for next three months before the murder as a result of a violation of her probation, and was then released to an in-patient substance abuse rehabilitation facility. Reports state that Birden asked her boyfriend for his knife and then left his house to find Holly stating "I have to end this tonight." Witnesses say Heather arrived and the two began to fight, ending in Holly being stabbed in the head and neck at a crosswalk outside an apartment complex in Torrington, CT.  Her friends rushed her to the hospital where she died.  Heather was hiding under a vehicle a short distance away and feigned confusion when police found her. She spen...

Brenda Andrew Execution date

     Brenda Andrew is the only woman on Oklahoma death row. She is there for the murder of her husband by her and her boyfriend James Pavatt.      Brenda does not answer letters. It seems she may still have a bit of that pretentious attitude left over from her days as a respected deacons wife. Those days are over, hun.      There is no scheduled execution date for Brenda yet. Oklahoma lists its dates of execution for the prison she is in here .      Every time I read about this case I am utterly amazed at how stupid these two people were. She may as well have advertised their guilt on a billboard in front of the house. Both Andrew's and Pavatt's appeal were systematically denied without comment in 2008. The little Scorned episode "The Sunday School Killers" at the top of this post is about Brenda and James and its only $1.99 so its worth the money.
