State police are confident remains are Morgan Harrington On January - 26
UPDATED: State police are confident remains are Morgan Harrington On January - 26 - 20107 COMMENTS
State police say they are “fairly confident” skeletal remains found this morning are 20-year old Morgan Harrington. In a news conference late Tuesday afternoon, State Police Superintendent Steven Flaherty delivered the news with what he described as “a heavy heart.” The skeletal remains were found in a hayfield on the Anchorage Farm in Albemarle County this morning. State police say they are “confident” the remains are hers, but have sent the body to the medical examiner in Richmond for further tests and autopsy. A farmer found the body Tuesday morning while he was driving a tractor in his field. While State Police did not name the landowner, News7 has confirmed that the farmer, Dave Bass, found her body along a fence line. Bass said the body was very badly decomposed. Bass said he first thought it was a deer, until he got closer and realized they were human remains. The body was sent to the medical examiner for further testing, but investigators say significant items found at the scene lead them to be fairly certain the body is the 20-year-old Virginia Tech student who went missing during a Metallica concert last October in Charlottesville. Investigators say they can’t release details about the items found, but believe the scientific evidence will confirm with certainty that the body is Harrington’s. State police said the body was found in a very remote area of the farm without easy access to the location. They say the area can only be reached by tractor or 4-wheel drive vehicle and there is no public access to the field. Reporters were not permitted to visit the crime scene.State police are treating Harrington’s disappearance as a homicide. Lt. Joe Rader says the case now moved to a new level. Rader says he doesn’t see this event as a warning to residents of Charlotteville or for students at the University of Virginia. Rader says Harrington’s parents, Dan and Gil Harrington, are in Charlottesville and were briefed by state police. Harrington was an education major at Virginia Tech. As the news conference was underway, Virginia Tech president Charles Steger issued a letter to the Virginia Tech community saying that “we find our strength and resilience tested in the face of profound grief and loss.” He urged students and faculty to take advantage of campus counseling services as needed. – Video: http://www.wdbj7.com/global/Category…&partnerclipid= News http://voices.washingtonpost.com/crime-scene/maria-glod/a-missing-daughter-her-parents.html

Virginia mass-murders suspect surrenders
Virginia mass-murders suspect surrenders; did he leave bombs behind?
By Larry O'dell

APPOMATTOX, Va. » A man suspected of killing eight people before disappearing into dense Virginia woods surrendered at sunrise Wednesday, and bomb teams searched a house they said he may have rigged with explosives.
Christopher Bryan Speight, 39, was wearing a bulletproof vest but had no weapons when he turned himself in to police around 7:10 a.m., Sheriff O. Wilson Staples said. Authorities say at one point he fired at a state police helicopter, rupturing its gas tank and forcing it to land, but no one on board was hurt.
Staples said Wednesday that Speight co-owned a home where three bodies were found inside and four outside. The eighth victim, who was found barely alive on the road just outside the house, died at the hospital.
Authorities have not revealed a motive for the shooting or said how Speight was related to the victims. Police spokeswoman Corrine Geller would not say what Speight said when he turned himself in.
He was wearing camouflage pants and a black sweat shirt when officers put him in a sheriff's car at state police headquarters later Wednesday. He was being taken to Appomattox Regional Jail and had not been charged.
Staples said bomb technicians and bomb-sniffing dogs were sent to the house because authorities believed explosive devices may have been planted in and around it.
The drama that started around noon Tuesday paralyzed the rural area about 100 miles southwest

of Richmond that is best known as the place where Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee surrendered to Union Gen. Ulysses S. Grant to end the Civil War. Police with dogs and heat-sensing equipment swarmed the woods and warned residents to stay indoors with doors locked.
"This is a horrific tragedy," Geller said at a news conference Wednesday. "It's definitely one of the worst mass killings in Virginia, probably since the Virginia Tech tragedy in April of 2007."
Appomattox County court records show a concealed weapons permit was issued to a Christopher Bryan Speight three times between 1999 and last year. The issue dates match the five-year renewal period for concealed handgun permits under Virginia law.
Authorities earlier said Speight had a high-powered rifle and Staples said investigators believe he had weapons training based on the weapons found in his home, though they have no information to indicate he was in the military.
Speight's uncle, Jack Giglio of Tampa, Fla., said his nephew was a deer hunter, though as far as he knew Speight did not have any specialized weapons training.
"We're shocked, of course," Giglio said. "I'm not aware of any problems with him. It's kind of out of the blue. We're still trying to pick up facts too."
Giglio said he hadn't seen Speight since 2006, when they both attended the funeral for Speight's mother, who died of brain cancer.
State police backed by other agencies spent Wednesday night enforcing a perimeter around a swath of woods that was 2 miles long and 1,000 yards wide.
The house where most of the bodies were found is located on a gravel road, with woods and farm fields surrounding it. On Wednesday morning, police had the road blocked about 100 yards from the house.
All the victims were adults.
The drama began around noon Tuesday when deputies responded to an emergency call about an injured man along the side of a narrow country road.
A deputy who answered the emergency call heard more gunshots and soon the area, about 3 miles from the state police district headquarters, was filled with law enforcement from all over, with more than 100 responding.

Criminal Minds
Do you ever wonder what serial killers think? Ever wonder why they kill people? Do they have something wrong with them? Did they snap somehow? Did they have a bad childhood? Good questions to know the answers to when profiling a criminal. These answers I seek out. I want to know what is in the mind of these killers, not for some sick reason but because I am thirsty for knowledge. I want to know people. Growing up I had always wanted to be a criminal scene investigator and study the behavior of people. I find people interesting. To know what people think and why they act the way they do is to know a lot.
It's commonly believed that serial killers cannot stop, because their compulsion is so strong that they're literally addicted to murder. In addition, they feel no remorse so they have no reason to refrain from indulging their hunger for blood - or else they're just plain psychotic.
However, there have been cases of men who have stopped themselves from killing again by going to the police to confess. Some actually express remorse, and might indicate that they'd been on drugs or were in some other state of diminished mental capacity during their crimes. They might also have come to the realization that, try as they might, they cannot stop themselves.
While it appears to be true that some people who immerse in horror imagery feel provoked to commit the same aggressive crimes they just viewed, it's also true that there is no evidence of a causal factor, and millions of people watch such films without feeling instigated to act. Some people process external images into aggressive behavior, others might gain catharsis, and still others remain altogether unaffected. A few become horror film makers or novelists. It's not easy to know just what effect a specific film might have. Whatever results, research shows that it has more to do with the viewer than the material viewed.
It stands to reason that violent imagery will affect certain people in a way that inspires them to act out. From the story that affects them, they acquire a frame and guidelines, and sometimes even interpret the film as a license to kill. Not everyone will be thus affected, but among those who are, it's safe to say there is such a thing as a "Copycat Effect" when the portrayal of violence grips a person so firmly that he or she decides follow the details of that specific template. Has the movie made him kill? No, but has it given him ideas and methods even victims? We can see that such things have occurred and are likely to continue to occur.

Winter Weather
I can't believe all this weather we have been getting. I must say, this has been the most snow we have gotten in one winter. I don't think we've ever gotten this much snow in one winter. We had the Blizzard in 1996 but if I can recall we never had this much snow off and on. Don't get me wrong, I like the snow sometimes. I'm not working at a 9 to 5 job so I don't have to worry about getting out and going to a job, however I do work for Magazine33 so I do have to worry about getting out and going to do interviews. The snow has put a damper in many people's plans this year. This has been a crazy winter. I tried to take many pictures of this winter's snow yet I don't have a professional camera so the pictures I took didn't come out as I had wanted them to. I don't take photos like I used to. If I had a professional camera I think that I would have taken more photos of this winter's snow. I don't think I've ever had to worry about getting snowed in the house until this winter. I moved recently and live on a hill that is hard to get up and down when it snows and it's icy. I wonder how much snow we will be getting this winter. Well, I'm sure we will find out.

Status Messages From Bean
ricky martin is gay. im going drunk who is coming with me? Bean doesn't abuse alcohol--it abuses her. Bean Says live life to the fullest and ride the bull drunk in a tube top in the middle of a redneck bar. What's the worst that could happen? Bean finds it funny how children in the dark cause accidents and accidents in the dark cause children. Bean If you don't want me to drunk call you, then you should have been the one drinking with me! Bean drinking promotes freedom of speech call me tonight and i'll tell what i really think of you! 1 drink, 2 drink, 3 drink, 4, 5 drink 6 drink ,7 drink, floor. Bean will be drunk until further notice! Bean hates that the only time you can be honest about your feelings is when your intoxicated!! Tonight I'm leaving my sobriety at home, along with my indoor voice and any behavior that can be mistaken as 'ladylike'. Wine Wine everywhere, drink enough and you won't care. Wine Wine in a glass, drink enough you're on your (_i_) *hipcup* Bean says "excessive consumption of alcohol seems like a good idea at the time." Bean Is not an alcoholic I just have a phobia of being sober!!!! Bean says...If you can't be happy at least you can be drunk. Bean says.. Alcohol may be mans enemy but the Bible tells us to love our enemy ;o) Bean thinks that next time you wave to me please use more than one finger.. thanks. You should concentrate LESS on what I'M doing and MORE on what you are NOT doing! It may take two to tango but it only takes one to fuck it all up! wait, lemme think about it for a minute... hmm nope, still don't give a fuck! If you walk across my floor, leave the drama at the door. It doesn't matter who is right or wrong, for in MY house, you will get along. when people get you down get back up and smack them in the face. Some things are better left unsaid, if I don't talk to you it's not because I don't like you, it's because I would rather not say something that I may regret. Bean hates it when someone texts me "Hey sorry if I woke you up." If your seriously worried about waking me up then don't fucking text me! Its that freaking simple!! When you lose something, why does someone ask you, "where did you put it?" Right, because I totally remember where I put it, it just disappeared!!
