Murders of Women in North Carolina

Do we have an epidemic in North Carolina of female murders? 

Earlier this year, a 23-year old pregnant marine, Maria Lauterback, was murdered by her former boyfrieind Cesar Laurean in Fayetteville, NC.  Specialist Megan Lynn Touma, 23, was found dead 8 months pregnant near Camp Lejeune, NC.  Her death is considered suspicious. 

On July 13, 24 year old Army Nurse Holly Wimunc’s body was discovered.  She was 24 years old and  worked at Fayetteville’s Army Hospital.  Her 23 year old estranged husband John Wimunc and an accomplice where charged with murder and arson of Holly’s apartment.

On July 14, the body of mother of two, Nancy Cooper, was found dead in Cary, NC.  She went out for a walk on Saturday morning and never returned.  A search warrant for Cooper’s home as well as permission to take forensic evidence from her husband, Brad Cooper, was obtained today.

If you live in North Carolina and are a female, be careful and keep your doors locked.

Sometimes boredom is a good thing.

It’s Monday and I’m bored today.  I was bored all weekend.  Cleaned the house, did the laundry, went grocery shopping, cooked for the family, went to Church, lay around on the couch, watching TV, etc.

Came to work, looking for something interesting to do?  Not much going on here either.  But that’s a good thing, isn’t it?

It means there’s no crisis in my life right now.  No big problem.  I still have a job, I have a roof over my head and food to eat.  Yes, even gas in my car!  With gas going for $4 a gallon and food at the supermarket, sky high what do I have to complain about?

I have a family to talk to – no one is sick nor going through a crisis. 

So, yes.  I’m bored.  That is a good thing, I can assure you.
