If he was sincere about wanting to relieve the families, etc...why did he happen to wait until after the evidence against him came out...

Respectfully snipped by me.
IF he killed Ali, I hope there's more evidence than two witnesses seeing her talking to a guy in a truck with a partial license plate # matching BSL's vehicle at the time to link her to it. You can't charge him with kidnapping/murder just for being in the area or stopping his truck & talking to Ali (although when you combine it with his previous crimes, we all know that 1+1=2 if he was indeed stopped in his vehicle talking to her, but I just don't think it's enough to bring charges).
As long as Ali's case has gone on with little happening, unless maybe her body is found with his DNA somewhere on it (unlikely after all this time) or some of the women's items in his home were hers (I'm not sure even that alone is enough to convince a grand jury or jury- although it would convince the heck out of me), I am not sure he'll ever be held responsible for Ali's death (IF he did it) because I'm just not sure enough evidence is there. Unless he confesses. And I'm not sure anyone would confess to a murder one that occurred in Texas - I'm not sure they wouldn't take the death penalty off the table in exchange for it.
I hope IF he is responsible for Ali's death, there's a ton of evidence LE is just now on to aside from the truck with matching partial plates being in the area. Or he confesses.
I was actually wondering why he didn't leave her in the cane field where he initially brought her body to dispose of it?? He assumed at that point she was dead according to his statement. She regains conscious while in the cane field, he shoots her, then decides at that point to drive her to a different location :waitasec:. I guess in the end it didn't really matter where he left her but it seems like quite a risk he was taking to continue driving around with her body. I get the impression he's not too bright for some reason.I find it odd that he went to the cemetery initially with the intent to bury her, then realized his wounds were too severe or painful to get it done. SO he hides her under some branches along a tree line. Then returns with the intent to bury her. We can't know everything, but its odd that he was so determined to get her buried. I wonder what this says about him. He could have tucked her away in the tree line as he did and just left it at that. But no, he returned. Furthermore, I find it totally nuts that he dumped the bike at Whiskey Bay at 11am. Per ChickenFried, that HAD to be difficult with fisherman and the heavily trafficked interstate right above. No matter how many answers there are, we will always have more questions. Sigh.
Since he pled guilty and there will not be a trial, does this mean Mighty Mickey's family will have her back sooner, since they can forgo all the extensive forensics that would've been needed for a trial?
I think I said this before, but I was so shaken by the experience that I never want to enter a courtroom again, for any reason. I don't know what I expected, but when he came out, 5 rows away from me.....contempt for this weasel, this squirrel, this piece of filth. Wearing crocs, no less. Hs only responses were 'ah, yes, sir'..nausea, I hated hearing that voice. Everything, 'ah, yes' a deep, monotonous voice, a vacant affect..he had no spring in his step when he walked in, as he did outside, staring straight ahead, carrying rolled legal size papers. There was something so evil, yet so banal about him.Thanks to you and IMPondering (and others?) for going there to witness it. Must have been heart-rending. I usually am pretty tough, but I don't think I could have handled being in there, especially when the family reacted.
I had to go to the hardware store on Jefferson and so swung by during lunch to see if there was a crowd. I hadn't intended to go downtown, but needed a special fitting at that store to finish a job today The aftermath was surprisingly quiet and peaceful... and cleansing, if that is the word. I said a few words to Tom - we had met before - but didn't have the heart to approach Nancy, whom I had never met. They were so strong that in some ways, that they were almost consoling some of the young reporters after the cameras were turned off. In a way, they exhibited a feeling of quiet victory. I did get a chance to thank Det. Bajat for doing such a great job for the community. What a job LE did - remarkable - especially in the heartland of the CajunNet - to keep a lid on it and get their man.
I've got to wash my tear-stained face and take a break for now. I believe we'll be hearing much more about *mister dumpy*and his evil-doings. I'm still kinda shocked at his seemingly harmless appearance, knowing that he could basically *turn on a dime* and become a violent rapist and murderer. I can see how he might present himself as just an ordinary *nice* guy, offering someone like Ali Lowitzer, a ride in his truck up the road to Burger Barn - then quickly presenting a knife or gun, stopping her from using her cell phone, and veering onto the interstate or to a country road to take her away. JMO We will find out more soon, I'm sure of that. He's not able to harm any other women now, thank God, and thank Mickey Shunick, for without her incredible bravery he may never have been caught.
We love you, Mighty Mickey :heart:
I couldn't stay on here while the pre trial was being taken. I haven't read all the posts..but......from what i have read......it is all about him...Mickey sprayed mase on him...she stabbed him....with life threatning injuries.........Where does he get off saying everything was about Mickey and what she did to him. LIFE THREATHING INJURIES...he wasn't even kept at the hospital......i hope this guy rots in prison.....i hope this guy wishes death on himself because prison is soo bad. I'm sorry to write this kind of stuff..i'm normally a good thinking person..but right now i cannot stand the sight of him.....

When the DA read the part about the shooting of Mickey her mother let out an anguished sob, accompanied by the gasps of several women & men. I don't know who was prepared for that, but I wasn't. If I felt drained, I can't ever begin to imagine...
Lisa's family was there as well. Her brother, clearly distraught..how could you not be when the DA reads out the days leading to your sister's death, & how she died.
But the oddest thing I saw was a young, petite, blond deputy who had to criss-cross the courtroom a few times. He didn't even keep his £%¥#&@ head up. He stood hunched over, head to the side, swaying every now & then. I doubt that he saw her.
The thing about his phoning the escort service, traveling south-bound on inside lane of University, seeing Mickey, making a swerve to right to track her. I keep stopping & staring at a blinking cursor b/c one word is going in front of the other slowly. That as such a long time, the hour+ to sit though that. No one was allowed to leave once in. The deputy sitting next to me inadvertently turned his phone on. Thankfully before the filth was brought in. It was jarring to hear music, even for a second,when he quickly turned it off & sat on it.
Incredible..
And, no, I don't for a minute believe this is his first rodeo.
Agreed!
Mrs. Shunick did say afterwards that there was no way she was enticed into the truck.
Respectfully snipped by me.I just wanted to clear that up because as a mother, it would piss me off to have people thinking that she was "enticed". Ughhhh! I am so glad Nancy was able to clear that up on the air. Still, I want to further emphasize it.
:rant:
Well, I'm not taking up for him by any means, but the reason he was there was to affirm what happened. She sprayed him, she stabbed him, he stabbed her, felt for a pulse and thought she was dead. Then she jumped up and stabbed him again...I don't see how the story could be told without what she did to him.
