GUILTY GA - Lydia Ivanditti, 63, dead in bathtub, Eatonton, 2 Dec 2016

I do not believe that this case and the Dermond case are related, but people have mentioned seeing a reference to the Cashmere club on the Dermond thread. Ironic. Here is the page where it was discussed:
http://www.websleuths.com/forums/sh...-Dermond-88-Putnam-County-2-May-2014-9/page24

Logically derived from sources available only, she was married to Mr. Scruggs for 20 years, then divorced but remained friends with him. During this marriage she had a daughter named Julia, her only child. In 2008, she married Mr. Ivanitti. They must have split, and she was in a relationship with an undesignated person.

Insight into the case was gained by reading the anonymous comments on the link below. Brutal comments, but maybe some truth there. One comment indicates that her business partner in the Cashmere was also her boyfriend. They did live at the same address. He does indeed have an extensive criminal record in Oklahoma.

Oh yes I was reading that yesterday, but didnt know how much I could say here........i investigated him and found nothing yet on the others or ex Ivanditti......they did live in the same house, the one bs partner is currently serving? Dates seem to overlap, couldnt tell but if so, and she didnt get indicted or anyone else, WOW is all I can say but I think she was invovled with wrong people for whatever reason, naive or of like mind IDK, she seemed to have a lot of relationships. After investigating all this yesterday Im suspecting the D and this are not related, thanks for the link!
 
Thanks.
I remember back in the 70's, Lake Oconee being built. We went to many baseball, football and hockey games when I was a kid via I-20.
I was fascinated with the lake and the dam.

Oh wow, wasn't familiar with the Lake time frame there, bet that was interesting, I've been off and on Lake Sinclair all my life since the 60's with family and myself.......it's getting alot of crime around about these days between Oconee Milledgeville and Eatonton.......Milledgeville alot more so but seems no one is immune I guess!
 
Excellent article providing a lot of new info.

Several persons are being brought in for questioning “as persons of interest” in connection with an ongoing death investigation of Lydia Huggins Ivanditti...

“Ms. Ivanditti’s death is currently being investigated as a homicide, because there are many questions about the injuries that she sustained,” [District Attorney] Bradley told the newspaper by telephone Friday. “According to the pathologist there are multiple injuries to her body, but it has not yet been determined with any finality all of the sources of those injuries so law enforcement is trying to determine all of the circumstances.”

“There are some individuals who have been identified as persons of interest,” Bradley said.

"Ivanditti’s body was found by her mother..."

For the past several weeks, Ivanditti had been living in the Atlanta area with her former husband, Steve Scruggs, for the past several months, to visit and take care of her mother since her father’s death.[SIC]

bbm: Oklahoma, huh? Well, even though it was me that brought news of this death to the Dermonds thread, I do sort of doubt there is a connection...still, I have to wonder just a little.

Look back at this page in the Dermond case discussion -- about Sills speaking of a lead out of Oklahoma. (Starting at about post #380, and read on down the page. The Cashmere/arrests get mentioned on this same page, too.) Just makes me go hmmm, a little:

Oh, man -- that article says her mother was the person who found her body. How sad. And "multiple injuries" to her, but authorities not elaborating at this point.

I copied Treelights post from the Dermond thread. The links no longer work, but Treelights quotes the link. Notice Plaza Art Center. Was LI the director in 2014?

Looks like Shirley played Bridge.

This last link is recently, from March 18, 2014, it lists Shirley....
"EDBC meets each Tuesday and Thursday at 12:30 p.m. at The Plaza Arts Center, 305 N. Madison Ave., in downtown Eatonton."

It also lists Shirley's telephone number, to call her, if a person wants to know more about the club.

my comment was posted twice so I deleted this one
 
Another article on the Cashmere. Again, brutal comments but apparently some truth there.

I followed your links. OMG
And incest. And he is laughing in his mugshot, like it is a joke

I found LI's photo and after seeing her and reading her history, it is hard to imagine that she would be selling drugs or allow it to go on around her. She seemed to prefer a conservative style, in hair and clothing. Looked just like everyone in church.
Did she need money desperately for some reason? Were the charges still pending? Maybe someone wanted to quiet her?

Teenagers sometimes fall in with the wrong crowd. Not Grandmothers!

The diagnosis of early onset Alzheimer's Disease is becoming more common. IDK

Does her involvement with criminals and child molesters seem suddenly out of character to anyone else? Maybe there was stuff like this in her past but she was able to hide it?

Yes. Very surprising.
She started a Limited Liability Company with Mr. Holland listed as "Holland and Huggins Holdings, LLC", which was created on September 16, 2013, and dissolved on February 17, 2016.

Ms. Ivinditti was attractive and smart. I don't understand her choice in men. Her choices seemed to be what led to her downfall. Was she involved with some sort of scheme with some collectible coins?
 
I know that, in this thread, Lydia is the victim, so I don't want to speculate too much. But I do agree that it sure sounds as if she made some poor choices in companions. Was the wool pulled over her eyes somehow? And maybe she got wise and got "out" and someone took revenge...or maybe someone feared she knew or even just suspected things she might reveal and so decided to do away with that possibility?

bbm: According to the info in an earlier post from True Crime Lover (which I'm quoting below), Lydia was the director 2008-2012. But certainly the bridge club may have been meeting there during that period (or part of it), too.

Wonder how he ended up in Eatonton, wonder how he ended up in OK? wonder where he is really from.............He is currently incarcerated, had an impressive rap sheet, anyone with that much disresepct for the law , I wouldn't put anything past them...........these 2 crimes in the same county, murdered, running in the same circles, you do have to stop and scratch your head, different somehow than the ****s and gangs.....Where did she meet him?? HOw? Why the need to get involved with him? wouldn't someone warn her?.......Her family are long time Eatonites according to some reserach I did.......SO she was never indicted? hes in prison, so apparently was and the other guy?...well I bet someone is a little ticked off maybe too...............going to read the thread you posted.................thanks

Do not know how old this post is but it appears Lydia is not invovled with it since she's been living in ATL the past year according to her obituary

but here are or WERE the members if interested

Somewhere when looking him up I had clicked on something else at the site I was on and that said he was currently incarcerated but the GDC said he served 2010 and out in 2011 so it was a bit confusing but I meant IS HE? currently incarcerated..........? Maybe it was in tulsa county OK, IDR, should have saved it........just like when I saw that Lydia had been living in ATL the 2 weeks prior to her death, you later posted that article, but I didnt save that either .............at any rate, going to your link no

Without researching how long Shirley had lived there and just assuming that she was going to bridge during Lydia's time as director. What would be the connection with Cashmere?

Aw shucks! I am going to have to reread some posts and I am late for a meeting. I'll have to read later. It does seem unusual for a small town to have 3 murders, both Shirley and LI being somewhat prominent. Was Shirley's husband active in the community in any way? I will try to check on that later.
