    Hate American Made ////// The Prophet

    Hate American Made  //////  The Prophet 

    Part 3 of 6


     

    www.TrueCrimeGarage.com 

    In 1983 David Koresh formally Vernon Wayne Howell claimed to possess the power of prophecy. This would spearhead his accent to leadership of a Texas religious group known as the Branch Davidians. The Branch Davidians were a splinter group of the Davidian Seventh Day Adventists. Koresh prophesied that his martyrdom would take place in the United States.

    Hate American Made ////// Ruby Ridge

    Hate American Made  //////  Ruby Ridge

    Part 2 of 6 


     

    www.TrueCrimeGarage.com

    Ruby Ridge is the name given to a standoff that lasted for days when federal agents were attempting to serve a bench warrant for husband, father, and property owner Randy Weaver. Weaver was wanted for failure to appear in court, facing illegal weapons charges. A series of errors created unnecessary bloodshed. Several people lost their lives on both sides of this standoff. The words Ruby Ridge have grown to be an “uncomfortable” phrase for many people, communities, and U.S. Government agencies. Ruby Ridge was much more than a big and deadly misunderstanding. Ruby Ridge was an abuse of power and forever shall be a stain on the agencies that abused their power.

    Hate American Made ////// The White Supremacist

    Hate American Made  //////  The White Supremacist

    Part 1 of 6 


     

    www.TrueCrimeGarage.com

    Hate itself is not a crime. Hate is a feeling, an emotion but hate can very easily become criminal. In fact we see it everyday on the News, playing out before our eyes. Richard Wayne Snell was a white separatist and a white supremacist. His hate became criminal. He committed several hate crimes that resulted in the murders of innocent people. Unfortunately within certain groups throughout several states Richard Snell was looked at as a leader, an influencer, and a lone wolf. He was a bad man full of hate who preferred to operate alone but when his mission became overthrowing the U.S. Government it required that he work with others. He found friendship in several hate groups that operated far and wide, from Arkansas all the way out to Washington state. Richard Wayne Snell’s hate fueled more hate and that hate turned violent and deadly.

    One year ago two women went missing. Veronica Butler and Jilian Kelly were traveling together to pick up Veronica’s children. At the time, the children were in the custody of their grandmother Tifany Adams. After the women were reported missing, Tifany instructed police that the two women never arrived to retrieve the kids. Veronica’s vehicle was discovered abandoned. At the scene of the vehicle police found signs of foul play. Days later the bodies of the women were discovered buried a little more than 8 miles from the vehicle. Someone went to great extremes in a failed attempt to conceal the bodies. This is the case that many refer to as "The Kansas Moms Murders."

    On Friday, August 11, 2000 - 24 year old Erin Taylor left a message on her best friend’s answering machine at 10:04PM. A few days later her friend traveled to Erin’s house looking for her. Her findings were alarming and concerning. She decided to report her friend missing as she feared the worst for Erin. What was known was that Erin had plans to meet a man from out of town that weekend. However after the Friday night answering machine message no one had heard from Erin and the days were dragging on. Days later, Erin’s body was found in a wooded area. Someone had placed her there and covered her with a blanket. Her case remains unsolved. There is a $5,000 reward for information leading to a conviction in this case. Tips can be called into Marquette Police 1-906-228-0400

    This week we are taking another look at a missing persons case out of Shelby, North Carolina.  9 year-old Asha Degree left her house for unknown reasons in the early morning hours of February 14, 2000.  Two independent eyewitnesses spotted the little girl walking alone in the dark on highway 18, 1 to 1.5 miles from her home.  She has not been seen since.  Now 25 years later, search warrant affidavits and text messages could hold the answers to finally finding this little girl.  Where has she been all of this time and who is responsible for her disappearance?


     

    If you have any information about Asha Degree, please call the tip line at 1-704-672-6100 or the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children ay 1-800-THE-LOST.
