Michelle Young, pregnant mom, murdered Part 16

By Special Request :)

When you walk
Through a storm
Hold your head, up high
And don't be afraid of the dark
At the end of the storm
Is a golden sky
And the sweet silver song of a lark.

Walk on, through the wind
Walk on, through the rain
Though your dreams be tossed and blown
Walk on
Walk on
With hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone.

You'll never walk alone.

I agree and will add that because of MM's emotional state at that time, she was 'easy pickings' for anyone who would want to take advantage of her at that time.

At most times, a woman who is in that kind of emotional state will succumb to comfort from another man.

Just because they emailed each other often I do have to wonder what they were saying to each other? Maybe MM had asked him repeatedly not to tell anyone about what happened between them that night. It is certainly something that one can 'hold over one's head like a tourniquet'.

Sami,

I wish I could remember who posted this idea (whoever it was I'm sorry I can't properly credit you) the other day but it was to the effect that perhaps MM actually expressed some problem to Michelle who in turn mentioned it to JY. This really struck me as entirely possible. Jy would have known about the vulnerability.

To me, for JY to have an affair with MM does not make sense. Not saying it didn't happen because it appears to be obvious that it did based on the search warrants. However, I just have this niggle that it was a very aimed action. JY had to know that an affair with someone out of state was a loosing proposition with little opportunity of actually fulfilling any need he may have had. Having recently become aware through search warrants that Michelle was not one bit happy about the Ca vacation - and MM occuring after that time - it just seems entirely pointed IMO.

He had to know at some point that MM would most likely have great regret over this and may potentially confess to Michelle - its possible given the history of their friendship. It is also possible IMO that JY himself may have thrown it at Michelle out of pure meaness. Lets face the truth - this guy takes a vacation and pays for others while totally ignoring his wife's concerns - there is no doubt in my mind he was at a minimum, emotionally abusive to Michelle. What better emotional abuse than to confront Michelle with this, knowing it would cause considerable upset and pain? And I would agree, he would also hold this over MM's head as well. Maybe the therapist knows about it. Maybe Michelle knew and never said anything to MM as well.

As to what was said in those daily communications, well LE definitely knows and I suspect it was indeed enlightening. I have a feeling that some of the emails were MM trying to get the heck away from the situation. This of course is my sense of logic and opinion about this. The guy is a true piece of work IMO.

I have a question. Who told us about Cassidy watching Cinderella & falling asleep that nite? Regardless of who, I guess the source had to be the GA friend, right?

Was it said that Cass was watching her movie at the same time they were watching GA?

I was looking at the house near them which is for sale (at CTV). Seems these homes do not have a family room. So if they were watching their shows simultaneously, it could mean that Cassidy was watching in her mom's bed.Shudder to think about that. Hopefully Michelle carried her to her bed but I know with my kids, everytime Dad was away, they slept with me.

If not, then Cassidy was watching the movie in the living room before 9pm.
I can't see Michelle starting the movie for her at 9pm so if she was watching it around 8pm then maybe there's a chance that the GA friend saw jy before he left.


Jilly,

As I recall, Rhett Fussell was the first provider that we were aware of concerning the information about Cassidy watching Cinderella on 2 November. This was a quote from him either in an N & O report or one from WRAL.

I don't recall a time being assigned to when Cassidy was watching this video. I think it is possible Cassidy had a small tv and video player in her own room. Also if you check about page 19 at CTV you will note a link to some layouts of the house that were done by purple. Don't know how acurrate they are but it is much better than what we know of now. Those layouts do show a family room and a great room on the lower floor.

Hi RC - Thank you! I noticed afterwards about Purple's plans including a family room. I was going by the virtual tour on ncnc's post.
I'm more confused now with all these plans what with bonus room & stairs, lol.

Hopefully Flicka will get ahold of the realtor.

I think that Jay's affair with MM was very calculated to inflict maximum
hurt and humiliation to Michelle. Why else would he choose to sleep with his wife's best friend?

It was a fantasy relationship for him. MM was out of state and wouldn't be
making demands on him. He could see her on HIS schedule, whenever he
he felt like seeing her.

It strikes me as being odd that MM and Jay only slept together that one time in Florida. Either the encounter wasn't very satisfying or MM wasn't being truthful about it being just once.

It could be that the email correspondence was what MM really needed and wanted (the emotional aspect) and the physical aspect wasn't all that great for her.

It does seem possible that MM used her little boy being sick as an excuse. Surely, he would have improved in the 2 weeks before the big football game.

It must have seemed too stressful for her come to Raleigh with her husband and child in tow. Would the Moneys have stayed with the Youngs at Birchleaf? Plus Jay seemed to be unpredictable in his behavior in social groups. She might have been afraid that he might get drunk and cause a scene.

I wonder if Jay had issued an ultimatum to MM? Maybe it was serious and he wanted her to choose between Steve and him. Maybe he was telling her that she better tell Steve or he would tell him about the affair.

What if jay had told MM that the both of them should tell their spouses at the same time that they wanted to be together that weekend?

That could be why MM cancelled her plans to come to Raleigh.

Which Michelle did Jay date first in college?

Happy Easter :blowkiss:

First I want to thank you Sami for starting our thread with those words of hope. You know that this is the prayer I now have for Cassidy, as she has a long life ahead of her and will never have the comfort and joy of talking to her own real mom.

Morning Jilly, Yes I plan to compose a short letter this afternoon and will post it just so if anyone has any other ideas I should include, that can be done before I send it.

We got sidewinded a bit looking of the plans of the house {5505 ?}that has the 3 gar garage sitting back, facing the front lot, but I have a real feeling the Young home was similar to the basic plan of the house itself, except the floor plan was flipped over. In the big house the MBr was on the opposite side of the house from the side entry garage {which was on the left side of the house facing it}. The Young home has the side entry garage on the right side of the house, so in following suit, I think the MBr is on the left side of the house.

We are trying to find out how the killer would approach the MBr, so we need to find out if it has a back set of stairs from which one could go up from the garage to the second floor. Stairs connecting the kitchen to both storage below {like a fruit room} and to the second level were almost a standard in the 90's when these homes were being built. So even though we have no floor plan of the Young house yet, I', thinking there are stairs, and we just have to find out how they connect and to where.

Last night I looked at the photos from Greta's trip to the Young house, and I noticed Michelle had white curtains in all of the upstairs windows. I noticed that on the left side of the house upstairs, the 2 windows in that room, the curtains looked like they were billowing a bit. To me that said those 2 windows were opened for ventilation, and in fact the right one of those two windows I think I can see it is pulled up half-way.

This gives me more reason to believe their MBr was on that side of the upstairs, with the actual bedroom in the back, looking out over the back yard, and the windows I am refering to are in the MBathroom, which is huge and runs from the bedroom all the way out to the front of the house.

Charlie, the only think I remember that MM could have talked to Michelle about would be her desire to have another baby and that she was having trouble getting pregnant. The rumor floated she was having fertility treatments, but I have no idea if that was a founded rumor or just idle prattle! lol

Hi again Saint, It always struck me as odd too that if MM and JY were friends of long standing, as we were told, that a platonic relationship would suddenly turn into a daily phone and email contact relationship that would also have one night of sex with him traveling down to Fl specifically to go to her home while her hubby was away.

Have you heard anything Saint about them dating in college? Well then what we heard about the one time having sex is wrong and it was stated that way to downplay an intimate relationship. We did hear early that MM and JY were in Denver at the same time. Hmmm, I don't think they were really both on track for each other.

But when I think everything over I don't think MM had the hots for JY and really wanted her marriage to work. I don't think JY ever really wanted his marriage to Michelle to work out. So he was probably in hot pursuit of MM and she only really wanted to befriend him and not 'sex him up'.

See, when I say it like that I think it puts the right light on how she felt about him. I don't think he got her all hot and bothered like JY wanted her, and I think what he wanted was sex so he could throw it back in Michelle's face.

What a rotton dufflebag he is!

I looked at the pic you provided in the link and must confess I cannot see any curtains that appear to be billowing. It actually looks to me like there are blinds in all the windows but who knows??

When were these pics taken?

Yeah, regarding the downplay - I'm sure I read somewhere that one of the camp was implying that the sex was Money's fault because "she wasn't getting any" or words to that effect.

No, I don't see those windows open. To me it just looks like window glare. If the window on the left there was the same, then yes, I'd say they had like a ruffle there on top. Sure are a lot of windows in that house!

[Samiya]

The windows are closed Scandi. I lightened them up and what looks like 'billowing' is the reflection of the trees on the window glass.

I stopped posting nice openers at ctv because I got tired of beginning it with something lovely, just to have the arguments and utter BS quickly begin.

Now that is a stellar idea Sami. I wonder if they have them on the computer? I have a fax machine if they can't email them.. Oh, I bet cha they have these plans, At least they are still in biz!

I saw what happened at CTV, which was awful. And I understand about the reflection on the window glass now. Thanks for checking that out Sami.

i think that the reference to MM and JY having sex "one time" meant during the 3 -month affair.

I have heard that both michelles were roommates in college and both had dated jay. i don't know which michelle dated him first. i would think that if they dated him, they had sex with him. i could be wrong.

michelle fisher and jay were on-again-off-again in college. some of his friends had never even met michelle fisher. i think that she dated another guy in college besides jay.

the rumor is that alcohol played a part in MM having sex that one time with jay in florida. but it's possible that MM used that as an excuse when admitting to her sorority sisters at the Spa Weekend how she had a weak moment and did it with him.

i had assumed that MM and jay were in denver at the same time
(on MY and JY's anniversary) and that they slept together then, too, but no one had ever confirmed that.

it's just hard to say what MM and jay felt about each other. i tend to think
that MM liked corresponding with him via emails but didn't really have a burning desire to be with him physically, otherwise i think that they would have tried to meet up more frequently.

he was an escape for her and she was a conquest for him. she was just aother weapon to use against his wife.

that was gojo - he said that the "beach girl" wasn't "getting any." someone referred to MM as a bombshell. i don't know if it was only in that article about jaysfan or whether gojo said it too.

i think that jay took the opportunity to pursue a realtionship with MM because she was feeling lonely and michelle was pregnant and it might have curtailed their sex life.

Howdy,

I remember now. I've been scratching my head about that Gojo comment. It wasn't aimed at MM. It was a sarcastic comment aimed at another poster, Surfie.

I believe Gojo said maybe Surfie (surf girl) wasn't getting any and that explained her anger and antagonism. LESSON LEARNED: Avoid sarcasm... it is often misunderstood by others.

Gojo would not have made the bombshell remark because he has never seen MM. He didn't say it.

LESSON for those posters who keep trying to psychoanalyze Jason's motives for the SUPPOSED affair with MM: You are approaching it with the female brain. Try to think like a male.... naw, forget that. Don't go there.

At any rate, for many males, but not necessarily for Jason, the adage applies: A guy doesn't need a reason, just a place.

Sorry Jake - that theory doesn't hold true - for example if Jason ran into MM and something happened I could agree but the truth here is JY was in daily contact by email or phone or text messages whatever for three months. The guy had a reason. Going out of state when, hopefully at least, living in a city the size of Raleigh there would have been a fair amount of women in the population and plenty of places - makes no sense unless one has a specific reason. The guy is a piece of work and I am definitely looking at from the male point of view.

I agree. Plus, being a "sales" guy, Jason could use the excuse of taking "customers" to nightclubs and bars. Women are a dime a dozen at these places; and there are plenty of opportunities for one-night stands. I saw it happening all of the time in my single days.

Why on earth would JY take the chance of having daily contact that could easily be traced?? He is either one very, very stupid man...or he was doing it for a reason... :waitasec:

Howdy,

Then you might agree that often some young males don't think with the head on their shoulders. It's difficult for me even to discuss this because I haven't yet accepted the affair theory.

However, Jason was/is not the sort to frequent bars trolling for trollops. He had no office so no chance for a hookup there. Most of his college buds were married. So, why not Florida?

I think I know what you mean by "piece of work". But I won't go there. I'll just point out that Jason is a moral man with an excellent upbringing.
Those of us who know him are amazed that so many who don't know him can believe he could/would beat his wife and namesake to death.

And by the way.... that "daily contact" I hear so much about. I have yet to hear any police officer say how many of those daily messages were from Jason's wife Michelle. I know that both Jason and his wife called and emailed MM and other friends. Maybe eventually we'll hear some exact numbers on this.

Jake,

You might want to read the November 30th search warrant again - it very clearly states the daily communications involved Jason Young. No mention of Michelle Young period.

As to the rest, well you freely admit you ask no questions of Jason. You also admit you live in Brevard - so how can you be so sure about Jason's behavior during the years he lived in Raleigh ? How can you be so sure of how he treated his wife ? How can you be so sure of any of your claims ?

I feel sorry for you - I know you want to believe that Jason is as you remember and have known him. Can't blame you for that.

--Jake
I know that this post was not addressed to me, but I feel compelled to put in my two cents' worth. I don't mean to offend, but you seem to be very naive or too close to Jason to be able to step back and view the situation objectively.

For the record, there are many successful men who have murdered their wives, spouses and/or children. Their families and friends were absolutely astounded to think that these men could murder anyone, especially loved ones. Many of these men had committed no crimes at all before they committed murder.

Adultery, financial problems, marital problems, pregnancy, secret lives, refusal to assist police, lawyering up are just some of the common traits that the other murdering spouses possessed. Can you see Jason fitting into any of these categories??

The police do not target individuals for the hell of it. If there were a random killer or someone else suspected of committing the crime, the police would target that individual. Of course, they would be working with the helpful spouse.

If Jason loved his wife, why hasn't he done everything in his power to eliminate himself as a suspect (a predicament that all spouses would find themselves in) and worked with the police to find the real killer of his wife and his son?

If my husband were murdered, I--an innocent party--would take a polygraph (although I would be nervous as heck) and work with the police to find the killer. I would in fact be calling the police on a regular basis to make sure that they were still working on the case.

Now, if I were guilty or had something to hide, I would hire an attorney and let the attorney talk to the police. I would refuse to take a polygraph. I would move away from the scene of the crime. I would tell my loved ones and friends that it was hard to go on...yada, yada, yada...

Observant people would know that actions speak louder than words. Most people would also ask the question, "What would I do if I were in a similar situation?"

Won't you at least admit that you would be more cooperative with police? The warrants have indicated that Jason, the husband, has not cooperated with police at all. So, if Jason is saying he has cooperated, who do you think is lying? Who stands more to gain? I can tell you that the police stand nothing to gain by pinning a murder on an innocent husband.

Jason, on the other hand, can gain his freedom, the house and life insurance. He also gains full custody of his daughter without having to pay child support. He apparently gains the sympathy of some of his friends and family, too. :rolleyes:

RC

Jake seems to think because his mother is good as gold (I really think she is by ALL accounts), Jason must be a "saint" and would never do anything that was taboo under his Mother's wholesome upbringing. We all know things change when you leave the house at 18. Jason is 32. He had that opportunity in those 14 years. In fact, the N&O article said he was "a late bloomer". My bet is he is totally different from the innocent young mountain boy that hiked the Appalachian trail way back when.

A sad example involves our basketball coach at NC State, Sidney Lowe. His 20 year old son was just arrested and charged with a string of serious offenses from felony drug possession to accessory to a shooting. Was Sidney a good father and did he teach his son good morals ? Absolutely he did. A 20 year old (and certainly 32 year old) makes his own decisions, sometimes totally opposite of what the careful upbring taught.

Jason Young was no saint. Far from it. In fact ,I have heard from people that know him very well. This is a direct quote from someone very close

· JY is a ‘shady” character even w/ his good friends. He did what he wanted to do, when he wanted to do it.
· They were not exactly ‘the model couple”. They did argue A LOT and weren't afraid to do it in front of us or anyone else.

Howdy,

About that search warrant.... I've said it before and I'll probably say it again: the police officers do everything they can to cast Jason in a negative way. I say this because I have been told that Michelle and Jason were in frequent contact with MM. Wouldn't you like to know the exact numbers before making a judgment? Do you think the media tried to get exact numbers? Do you think anyone cares? Just my opinion, of course.

This is just another example of the California trip "disinformation". If you remember that, police officers said Jason took a trip to California, without his wife and daughter. Period.

What you say about knowing someone is obvious and doesn't need to be said. When a young man goes off to the big city, the folks back home don't know how he conducts himself.

But we do know what he is capable of. Beating his wife and baby boy to death? No way.

--Jake

[raisincharlie]

Barney,

I too have seen many comments such as you post. I seriously doubt JY had so many enemies that some of these comments can't be true. Comments such as this are what most likely LE heard as well. I'm sure they heard some good ones also. Both of the comments you have shared are very telling, without the need to analyze, how the relationship between Michelle and Jason was. If it were just a few saying this, they could be overlooked, unfortuanately this seems to have a much higher rate of being said by those who knew them in Raleigh. JMO

[raisincharlie]

Howdy,

About that search warrant.... I've said it before and I'll probably say it again: the police officers do everything they can to cast Jason in a negative way. I say this because I have been told that Michelle and Jason were in frequent contact with MM. Wouldn't you like to know the exact numbers before making a judgment? Do you think the media tried to get exact numbers? Do you think anyone cares? Just my opinion, of course.

This is just another example of the California trip "disinformation". If you remember that, police officers said Jason took a trip to California, without his wife and daughter. Period.

What you say about knowing someone is obvious and doesn't need to be said. When a young man goes off to the big city, the folks back home don't know how he conducts himself.

But we do know what he is capable of. Beating his wife and baby boy to death? No way.

--Jake

Jake,

Sorry but I really don't need a number, what the warrant says is almost daily contact with Jason Young over three months - the number of times is irrelevant. It is also irrelevant if Michelle spoke with her friend. Since this information came directly from Ms. Money and not manufactured by the police, I fail to see how the police have made Jason look bad. I also fail to see why Ms. Money would say such a thing if not true since the police were there to obtain her computer. This warrant seems to indicate to me that the police were giving Jason the benefit of the doubt because they were indeed there to obtain the computer to verify what she relayed to them. I therefore must disagree with you on those points.

So are you saying that Jason did not take his family members on a trip to California or are you saying Michelle and Cassidy did indeed accompany Jason on that trip ? Or are you saying sources close to the investigation are lying and the trip never happened at all ? From the link below, what part of that is not true:

http://www.wral.com/news/local/story/1201054/

"Sources close to the case say that Jason Young took that trip with family members that did not include his wife or daughter.

Another person -- identified as "Witness B" -- told investigators about the California trip, although the detective did not specify those details in the affidavit. The witness said Michelle Young was also "stressing about money and things Jason would go out and do."

[jake]

I know that this post was not addressed to me, but I feel compelled to put in my two cents' worth. I don't mean to offend, but you seem to be very naive or too close to Jason to be able to step back and view the situation objectively.

For the record, there are many successful men who have murdered their wives, spouses and/or children. Their families and friends were absolutely astounded to think that these men could murder anyone, especially loved ones. Many of these men had committed no crimes at all before they committed murder.

Adultery, financial problems, marital problems, pregnancy, secret lives, refusal to assist police, lawyering up are just some of the common traits that the other murdering spouses possessed. Can you see Jason fitting into any of these categories??

The police do not target individuals for the hell of it. If there were a random killer or someone else suspected of committing the crime, the police would target that individual. Of course, they would be working with the helpful spouse.

If Jason loved his wife, why hasn't he done everything in his power to eliminate himself as a suspect (a predicament that all spouses would find themselves in) and worked with the police to find the real killer of his wife and his son?

If my husband were murdered, I--an innocent party--would take a polygraph (although I would be nervous as heck) and work with the police to find the killer. I would in fact be calling the police on a regular basis to make sure that they were still working on the case.

Now, if I were guilty or had something to hide, I would hire an attorney and let the attorney talk to the police. I would refuse to take a polygraph. I would move away from the scene of the crime. I would tell my loved ones and friends that it was hard to go on...yada, yada, yada...

Observant people would know that actions speak louder than words. Most people would also ask the question, "What would I do if I were in a similar situation?"

Won't you at least admit that you would be more cooperative with police? The warrants have indicated that Jason, the husband, has not cooperated with police at all. So, if Jason is saying he has cooperated, who do you think is lying? Who stands more to gain? I can tell you that the police stand nothing to gain by pinning a murder on an innocent husband.

Jason, on the other hand, can gain his freedom, the house and life insurance. He also gains full custody of his daughter without having to pay child support. He apparently gains the sympathy of some of his friends and family, too. :rolleyes:

Howdy,

You say "many successful men..." have killed their wives. Sure, it can happen and does happen. But before I am surprised at it, I would have to have seen how they were reared. "As the twig is set, so the tree will grow." I know how Jason was reared.

YOU SAID: "Adultery, financial problems, marital problems, pregnancy, secret lives, refusal to assist police, lawyering up are just some of the common traits that the other murdering spouses possessed. Can you see Jason fitting into any of these categories??" END SNIP

Adultery: not proven.
Financial: Not true. I know the search warrant. Still not true.
Marital: Not proven. Rumors.
Pregnancy: A positive development. Both were happy about it.

You mean the police who from the beginning have accused him of beating his wife and baby boy to death?

You mean the police who have released nothing but incomplete, negative information?

You mean the police who from the beginning have shown their hostility by harassing his family?

You mean the police who from the beginning have accused him of not cooperating when what they really mean is that he will not submit to grilling by them?

Are these the police officers you mean?

Howdy,

I'm not going to ask you to prove your "many comments such as you post." What I have heard, and seen, is that Jason and Michelle had a wide variety of loyal friends.

I think if a man goes through life without making enemies, he probably has not lived a life true to himself. I think you can judge a man by WHO his enemies are and WHO his friends are. I know some of his friends but none of his enemies.

You've read those posts as well on the many boards you are signed into. I don't doubt that Michelle and Jason had many friends and that they are indeed loyal. Truth is always an essential element of loyalty.

[raisincharlie]

Jake,

Your comments about Jason being such a moral fellow, and no way he could kill his wife and unborn son, finally reminded me of something.

A very nice, quiet, unassuming young woman, routine church goer, and no one could ever believe she did what she did.

http://news.aol.com/topnews/articles/_a/trial-nears-for-slain-pastors-wife/20070409064809990001?ncid=NWS0001000000000

"It was just building up to this point," Mary Winkler said, according to a statement taken by Alabama police. "I was just tired of it. I guess I just got to a point and snapped."

But friends have said they can't understand how someone as sweet and quiet as Mary Winkler could be charged with murder.

"This was a perfect family," Judy Turner, a member of the Winkler's McMinnville church, said just after Winkler was arrested.


Makes me wonder... ETA - her trial starts today, she was married for 10 years before this event.

Jake, I wasn't aware that the police had officially named him a suspect and accused him of beating his wife and baby boy to death. Nor was I aware that they were harrassing JY's family. What kind of harrassment have they been subjected to?

Also, I have to agree with others that just because you know that JY had a wonderful upbringing means absolutely nothing about the person he is today. Remember that whole "nature vs. nurture" argument? Well, IMO it's a bit of both, so I don't think that a healthy upbringing can guarantee a good person who is absolutely incapable of murder. JMO...

No disrespect intended Jake but being so close to Jason seems to be preventing you from being objective.

I don't buy for a second that the police made up information to get their search warrants. They have proof IMO that there was indeed daily contact between MM and JY. They got that information from JY's cell phones and computers which led them to MM who confirmed the info and turned over her computer. Whether or not MM and MY communicated daily, weekly or monthly has nothing to do with those search warrants, Jasons cell phones and computer. I have no doubt that those communications leave little to the imagination as to the nature of their relationship, which is why MM admitted to investigators it had been sexual. Communicating daily with someone you are having a sexual relationship doesn't fit into the one night stand "any place" theory at all.

If JY is innocent then co-operating with the police can cause him no harm. If you really think this is some elaborate set up by police to frame Jason Young then why doesn't he go public and tell the world about this travesty of justice?

You know JY's family and maybe you knew JY well growing up as a boy, however he is a grown man who has spent almost half his life NOT living at home with family. Many, many things change as one becomes an adult. I also don't think you or anyone else would have the first clue about the Young's finances. Thats a private matter between a husband and a wife and if there is a financial problem many times that is embarassing for the couple and not something they are eager to share with anyone. Police have access to their financial information and have stated clearly that there were financial problems. I seriously doubt you or anyone else in Jason's family have seen such personal details.

You do realize police have to have proof to back up their claims don't you? Saying it doesn't make it so, evidence does the talking.

As hard as I am sure this is for you, I believe your going to have to face the reality that the Jason Young you knew as a boy is gone and all is not what it appears.:twocents:

[raisincharlie]

Have to agree with you sweetpeach.

Welcome to WS !:D

[5bigfish5]

Howdy,

Then you might agree that often some young males don't think with the head on their shoulders. It's difficult for me even to discuss this because I haven't yet accepted the affair theory.

However, Jason was/is not the sort to frequent bars trolling for trollops. He had no office so no chance for a hookup there. Most of his college buds were married. So, why not Florida?

I think I know what you mean by "piece of work". But I won't go there. I'll just point out that Jason is a moral man with an excellent upbringing.
Those of us who know him are amazed that so many who don't know him can believe he could/would beat his wife and namesake to death.

And by the way.... that "daily contact" I hear so much about. I have yet to hear any police officer say how many of those daily messages were from Jason's wife Michelle. I know that both Jason and his wife called and emailed MM and other friends. Maybe eventually we'll hear some exact numbers on this.

--Jake

Jake,

I beg to differ. Jason is NOT a "moral man". A moral man takes any and all promises he makes with another very serious, even if it is a "handshake deal".

Jason defiled a covenant that he stood up and made with Michelle before God. Nothing moral about that! Nothing at ALL!

Wife's money fears, fury detailed
Murder victim stressed over money, angry at husband's trip without her, warrant shows

Thomasi McDonald, Staff Writer
RALEIGH - Michelle Young was not only "stressing out over money" but about a California vacation authorities say her husband took without her, according to a search warrant.
SNIP

According to the search warrant, Sternberg talked with two witnesses about the California vacation. One said Michelle Young was "very, very" angry about the trip that her husband apparently took without her.
The second witness told Sternberg there was tension between the two as a result of Jason Young's California trip, according to the warrant.

As you can imagine, the CTV board had about five pages of posters guessing what Jason was doing while visiting the fleshpots of California. What a selfish moron to take off on a solo vacation and leave his poor wife and baby behind....etc.

The media relied on the search warrant for the information. The search warrant, I believe, was purposely incomplete. It didn't mention that it was a long-planned trip with Jason's mother, sister, brother in law.

The two A & B (younger) witnesses? Obviously not friends of Jason. The money? That had been planned for and budgeted also.

I've often wondered what would have happened if Jason had given up his constitutional rights and sat down to be grilled by police officers. Would these negative stories have come out differently? I think so.

I also wonder why I keep writing this story. I've done it before, and obviously it convinces no one. Others still believe Jason should "cooperate", give up his rights, submit to grilling, eh, an "interview".
I don't.

Howdy,

On the Nontestimonial warrants police officers said three times they think Jason was guilty. The most obvious harassment was the delay in returning confiscated items to family members. And yes, I know Jason brought it on by his standing on his rights. I believe the reaction of police officers has been childish.

Obviously there are no guarantees when raising kids. You do the best you can and then turn them loose. I understand that. I believe it is Jason's nature not to kill his wife and baby, and I believe that's also the way he was nurtured.

Jake,

The only difference I see is the N & O pretty much claimed that Michelle was angry because the trip was without her. I would say you should have a beef with that since the search warrant clearly does not say that. A bit of journalistic lattitude appears to have been taken by the N & O.

As to witness A & B, I don't think it should matter if they are friends of Jason's or not as long as they were truthful, that is the only thing that matters. And the search warrant, well Jake, they typically don't list every single detail about a subject. I think you should be careful what you wish for there - would you be happy if a search warrant exposed the details of an affair ? What you see as the police being purposefully negligent is actual quite diligent. I'm sure you and Jason's family would certainly not want every single detail listed for the public to read.

No you will not convince others that Jason is doing what he should be doing in your opinion - by being quiet. That is his right, so be it. The truth will be found regardless of what Jason would or could say to LE.

No comparison intended - the event however is defintiely not far fetched and not impossible. So while you can say there is no way Jason could kill his wife and baby, the truth is no one can say that about anyone at anytime for any reason - it happens, no matter how perfect the marriage appears or how wonderful the person is, or wonderful their upbringing was, how moral they are, or whether they go to church or not. It happens.

Maybe this was just a long-planned trip amongst the Young family without Michelle's knowledge. He could have booked the trip a week or so before going on the Visa (before the bill came in) and Michelle would have been none to the wise.

I seem to recall the 'no vacation time left' excuse being used when the information about the trip first came to light as well. Seems it was used to discourage the 5 pages of jumping to conclusions about the trip.

You know JY's family and maybe you knew JY well growing up as a boy, however he is a grown man who has spent almost half his life NOT living at home with family. Many, many things change as one becomes an adult. I also don't think you or anyone else would have the first clue about the Young's finances. Thats a private matter between a husband and a wife and if there is a financial problem many times that is embarassing for the couple and not something they are eager to share with anyone. Police have access to their financial information and have stated clearly that there were financial problems. I seriously doubt you or anyone else in Jason's family have seen such personal details.

Howdy,

I'm sure you are right about not being objective, no matter how hard I try. And I do.

I don't have enough information to discuss the MM story with you. My thoughts are jumbled with verified information and guess work from the message boards. I'll have to research more.

There is no way to know how many innocent people have been framed by police officers. It does happen but I can't give you links to it. Jason and his lawyer decided on the stragegy of standing on his rights. I can understand that.

Finances? I do happen to know that the combined income of the Youngs was such they had no real financial problems. They budgeted for things the same as I do. When unforseen items arise, as the broken garage door, the heat pump, etc., they did what I do: the best they can.

I have wondered about those search warrants. I know the police should not lie on them, but the warrants can be written in such as way that a judge can sign them in good conscience. If this goes to court, it will be interesting to see how many of the warrants stand up. Evidence gained by a faulty warrant will not be admitted.

--Jake

[jilly]

It would also likely make her very angry to discover this had been planned and not discussed with her.

No kidding! The part about budgeting is a stretch as well imo. First of all, I would guess that Michelle did all the budgeting in that family and secondly can't imagine her or any woman approving of this expense unless they were rolling in money!

I don't have enough information to discuss the MM story with you. My thoughts are jumbled with verified information and guess work from the message boards. I'll have to research more.

There is no way to know how many innocent people have been framed by police officers. It does happen but I can't give you links to it. Jason and his lawyer decided on the stragegy of standing on his rights. I can understand that.

Finances? I do happen to know that the combined income of the Youngs was such they had no real financial problems. They budgeted for things the same as I do. When unforseen items arise, as the broken garage door, the heat pump, etc., they did what I do: the best they can.

I have wondered about those search warrants. I know the police should not lie on them, but the warrants can be written in such as way that a judge can sign them in good conscience. If this goes to court, it will be interesting to see how many of the warrants stand up. Evidence gained by a faulty warrant will not be admitted.

--Jake


There are plenty of people with VERY substantial incomes that live over their heads and have financial issues. Having said that, I agree with you. I do not believe the Young's had serious financial problems and that will not be part of their case to the jury

[Barney Fife]

No kidding! The part about budgeting is a stretch as well imo. First of all, I would guess that Michelle did all the budgeting in that family and secondly can't imagine her or any woman approving of this expense unless they were rolling in money!

If it was planned, it was planned in advance by Jason and his Brevard family. MOO,MY heard about it at the last minute

Are you saying that not only did Jason treat his family to a California vacation without his wife and daughter, but he planned the trip without her knowledge, as well?

Would be my guess. Like his close friend said .....

Jake,

I hope you are not hanging your hat on the above. Every defense lawyer in the world will argue a warrant is not admissable, that is their job and SOP.

To be lawful, the search would require two things:

ONE: Probable cause to suspect that the search would reveal certain evidence identified in the warrant application. The legal status of the search depends on what the police/sheriff’s deputies reasonably suspected at the time of the application, and on the reliability of the information on which that suspicion was founded.

TWO: That the place to be searched and the items sought were described in the warrant with reasonable specificity.

The police are entitled to rely on apparently credible information and proceed in good faith.

[sweet peach]

Have to agree with you sweetpeach.

Welcome to WS !:D

Thanks raisin!

Imagine discovering the CA trip and then maybe a short time later finding out your husband was having an affair with your close friend? I don't know about therapy fixing things but I sure as heck would be thinking of ending my marriage in light of those 2 discoveries.:furious:

I posted this as 'food for thought" on another board:

There may have been a print out on various Coach purses that was for MM. MY found it when she went back up stairs to check her e-mail before going to bed. There was an 11 pm call from Jason and HELL broke lose. She said she wanted a divorce, ect and do not come home. After she hung up on him, he tried to call back and she would not answer.He then jumped in the suv at 11:15 pm and drove to Raleigh ...arriving at 2 am. They argued and he 'lost it"...the rest is history.

[raisincharlie]

Wow, you ladies are brutal :D

I can't imagine why that would make you sooooo mad :crazy: .

I know one thing - my wife would skin me alive for that kind of bs, I would not only need a good doctor but also the therapy.:crazy:

[snowshuze]

It still doesn't make alot of sense to me that Jason's family even took this trip without discussing it with Michelle FIRST. Especially when finding out she and Cassidy were not coming along? Something is just not adding up for me.

Maybe the answering machine removed from the bedroom will shed some light on that Barney. Sounds like a reasonable theory when viewed with all the other stuff going on at the time. Makes a lot of sense when thinking about that trip to Brevard and calling Meredith.

This is my first post.I've been lurking for quite sometime. All the posters here seem to have so much common sense .

I believe that prior to the one week vacation , his wife had just returned after spending 2 weeks at her mothers recuperating from the loss of her baby.

The way I see it , the husband "already" had a vacation. Home alone for 2 weeks ; no wife, no children to deal with ? What mother wouldn't love to have that luxury for just one day ? Then, he skips out for a week with his family ?

I think there was trouble in paradise.

MOO

Actually, she quite liked it, the problem was none of her shoes worked with it, nor any of her wardrobe. Good excuse for a major shopping spree. Thankfully I did not spend $500 on the bloody thing - I can only imagine the wardrobe necessary to match that!:D

LOL Sami!

I'm still not sure that she had used up her vacation time. I'm thinking she would get more than 2 weeks a year. If I was playing devil's advocate here, I think it would make more sense to say that she had not actually booked the time off.

I agree with others though - she didn't know about this until the last minute.

Wouldn't make any difference to him imo. In fact, from what I've read, he probably would have thought it was the perfect time to go!:crazy:

[nanandjim]

...As hard as I am sure this is for you, I believe your going to have to face the reality that the Jason Young you knew as a boy is gone and all is not what it appears.:twocents:
Good post. I totally agree with you. Unfortunately, something caused JY to go awry. I don't understand it. I could never do it. Apparently, many husbands have. There are probably just as many who have gotten away with it as there are that have been caught.

Heck, Justin Barber even shot himself four times to make it appear that a random guy approached his wife and him on a lonely beach in Jacksonville. It took many years to bring him to justice. I believe his wife's (April) family were constantly in touch with police.

Justin grew up in a good family, had a master's degree, was very successful and outgoing. His outer veneer, so to speak, was very presentable. Then, when you looked deeper, he was having flings and affairs, was gambling and in debt; and his wife was going to leave him. Almost forgot to mention that there was a large life insurance policy on the wife.

Of course, he and his family say that the police targeted him from the beginning. Surprise, surprise...

Justin had deleted his internet searches of "gunshot wounds to the chest." He also had downloaded songs, one of which he deleted after her murder. It was something about "I used to love her, but I had to kill her."

Thank God that the police were finally able to gather enough evidence to take this guy to trial and convict him. Like I said, it took years; but it did finally happen.

So, my advice to Jason: Keep looking over your shoulder because one day you may be approached by the men in blue. ;)

[nanandjim]

...Others still believe Jason should "cooperate", give up his rights, submit to grilling, eh, an "interview".
I don't.

As Dr. Phil says, "People who have nothing to hide, hide nothing." You apparently feel that Jason has a lot to hide. Police must work from the inner circle out. They have to be able to eliminate the inner circle of family and friends to focus all of their efforts outward. Jason apparently doesn't care whether they find the murderer of his wife and son. Can you tell me if he has received Michelle's life insurance money yet? Is the home for sale? He should be sitting pretty for a while, don't you think? I guess that finding the "real" murderer is the least of his concerns.

As far as I am concerned, you are correct. Your statements fall on deaf ears with me because they make no sense. The only argument that you can give for the reason that Jason won't cooperate with the police is that they will grill him and have harrassed his family. Is Jason really that fragile?

Geez...his wife was viciously beaten to death. He also lost the son that he was so eagerly awaiting. Don't you think that would enrage the average guy and make the average guy put aside his sensitive feelings to get to the bottom of this crime?

[j2mirish]

Howdy,

On the Nontestimonial warrants police officers said three times they think Jason was guilty. The most obvious harassment was the delay in returning confiscated items to family members. And yes, I know Jason brought it on by his standing on his rights. I believe the reaction of police officers has been childish.

Obviously there are no guarantees when raising kids. You do the best you can and then turn them loose. I understand that. I believe it is Jason's nature not to kill his wife and baby, and I believe that's also the way he was nurtured.

--Jake
not being a smart a++ here, but do you suppose you could interview any convicted murderer, who was raised to believe it is ok to murder someone-? I have to agree with all the other posters, he has long been gone from the nest--- how many people say of a convicted killer...." WE WOULD HAVE NEVER BELIEVED IT< OR THOUGHT IT? "

[j2mirish]

Howdy,

Thanks for the link. It certainly is a bewildering story. I see the point you want to make. But I don't agree that Jason in any way can be compared to the Winkler woman.

So, he's just fixated like the rest of us ? I was thinking there are some kernels of truth in what he posts . Yet, in recent days it seems he may not have even been in the house , only relying on photos ? Has he ever added to the discussion about a back staircase ?

He has never responded to any more questions about the house because he has no idea about the house layout or back stairs. I think there are "kernels of truth" in some of what he posts. Again, info he gets from his wife talking to Mrs Young. He also may be e-mailing JTF and getting info from her ?

[raisincharlie]

Well, Jake got me to thinking today. I've taken a step or two back and have done some reflection on some things. For some reason I went back to a post about there being two rooms for the families at the viewing. One for the Youngs and one for the Fishers. We know from watching the video from the funeral that there was no unity between the Youngs and the Fishers during the funeral. Jake has made it a point on more than one occasion to comment about Meredith running back and forth at the funeral service to talk to Jason.

Been doing a lot of studying about that with a bit of relatively new items to add. We find out that Michelle was seeing a therapist, we find out JY went on a vacation without his wife and daughter. We also find out that Michelle went to NY to spend time with her Mom before this vacation.

Now I'm wondering - does it not seem obvious LF believed from the beginning that Jason murdered Michelle ?

Did Michelle tell LF some things when she went to NY that upon reflecting, led LF to believe that JY murdered Michelle ?

Why did JY not take Cassidy on the vacation ? Did he not want Cassidy to go ? Did Michelle tell him Cassidy was not going ?

Did Michelle have enough time with a therapist to relay the same things to the therapist that led LF to believe JY murdered Michelle?

Ohhh, ok....I thought he had driven a vehicle back. I had forgotten that Mrs gojo had accompanied Mrs Y (for "support") when the house was released. So then of course he hasn't been in the house and is just going by photos. Thank you!

[The Saint]

Howdy,

Then you might agree that often some young males don't think with the head on their shoulders. It's difficult for me even to discuss this because I haven't yet accepted the affair theory.

However, Jason was/is not the sort to frequent bars trolling for trollops. He had no office so no chance for a hookup there. Most of his college buds were married. So, why not Florida?

I think I know what you mean by "piece of work". But I won't go there. I'll just point out that Jason is a moral man with an excellent upbringing.
Those of us who know him are amazed that so many who don't know him can believe he could/would beat his wife and namesake to death.

And by the way.... that "daily contact" I hear so much about. I have yet to hear any police officer say how many of those daily messages were from Jason's wife Michelle. I know that both Jason and his wife called and emailed MM and other friends. Maybe eventually we'll hear some exact numbers on this.

--Jake

namesake? so they did have a name picked out for the baby boy - Jason Jr. was killed at his father's hand that night as well as Michelle.

unless Michelle hacked into jay's email account and was using HIS
group of cellphones, I think that LE knows which emails and calls originated form jay to MM.

unless Michelle not only hacked into jay's email account and PRETENDED to be jay and sent mash email notes to MM, I think it is safe to assume jay wrote those emails.

why do you think the posters here who speak of affairs are women and speak only from the female perspective about affairs?
there are men and women who post on this board. both have commented on jay's affair with MM.

as far as not having an office, it didn't stop jay from congregating with
a group of female co-workers and lamenting about his sex life with his wife.

jay a moral man? you don't really know him at all, jake. you knew him as a boy not a sexually active grown man.

Ummm, yeah! If one is going to risk or ruin their career, one should at least make sure they find the proverbial smoking gun or something!

Sheesh. And let's not forget that this was a horrific crime where a pregnant lady was beaten to death. I'm sure the officers decided to play around with this case and frame an innocent guy...and let the monster who did this roam the streets.................

Did Michelle tell LF some things when she went to NY that upon reflecting, led LF to believe that JY murdered Michelle ?

Why did JY not take Cassidy on the vacation ? Did he not want Cassidy to go ? Did Michelle tell him Cassidy was not going ?

Did Michelle have enough time with a therapist to relay the same things to the therapist that led LF to believe JY murdered Michelle?


hmmm...

RC,

I have always though that LF knew from the beginning. In her first plea to the public she asked for anyone who had seen or heard anything to come forward. Quote:

“I’m asking for anyone who has seen or heard anything, as trivial as you might think it is, anything, to please come forward, and help find the person who murdered our daughter."

She didn't ask if anyone knew who did this. I don't know...I may be reading too much into it but that just jumped out at me.

I'm sure Michelle poured her heart out to her mom during that two weeks. She was an emotional wreck at that point what with losing the baby etc.

I would think the reason jy didn't want Cassidy on the vacation was because he didn't feel it was right to expect others to babysit while he was having a good time. Perhaps all of them planned on going to a casino or whatever.

It would be good to know how many sessions Michelle had with the therapist. Sessions are usually 1 hour and you can talk alot during that time. The first few sessions involve mostly the client talking and the therapist getting a feel for the situation and asking a few of questions. So whatever she told the therapist in one or two sessions could be enough for LE to get a handle on the situation.jmo

Ummm, yeah! If one is going to risk or ruin their career, one should at least make sure they find the proverbial smoking gun or something!

Sheesh. And let's not forget that this was a horrific crime where a pregnant lady was beaten to death. I'm sure the officers decided to play around with this case and frame an innocent guy...and let the monster who did this roam the streets.................

BTW, Hi Sami!

Or make their own smoking gun! lmao. Rather pathetic accusation isn't it?

Hi DD!

How you been hon? Our friend would've loved Easter me thinks....I can picture all those choccies and him in the middle drooling, lmao.

Hugs

Howdy,

Finances? I do happen to know that the combined income of the Young's was such they had no real financial problems. They budgeted for things the same as I do. When unforeseen items arise, as the broken garage door, the heat pump, etc., they did what I do: the best they can.
