  • Capture: Two Tales of a City, in reply to Kumara Republic,

    hey happened to be the ones who supported Tony Marryatt, and who weren’t stepping down from office

    Heh!
    Citizens of ChCh do remember - and act.

    Actual whodunnit murders aren’t all that common in this country.

    Except for that very strange yacht/ketch case murders...

  • Cracker: Lundy and Me., in reply to Russell Brown,

    But my very strong suspicion is that it was not any of the accused who did the victimising. That was done by the people who coached them.

    Totally & utterly -YES!

    Most of them have either left CHCH environs or otherwise departed. It truly was a literal child-mind-molestation group there for a while, in pursuit of really
    unsavoury goals (e.g. & unspoken-- demonise gay male child care-givers- simply because they are gay males- )

    . 1 If the person in the spotlight didn’t commit the murder, then who did?

    In Ellis's case there was NO murder: there were insinuations of abused kids ( sexually & otherwise.)

  • Speaker: TPP: This is a fight worth joining, in reply to Judith Fursdon,

    nd it would be catastrophic for me and many others who have played medication roulette for a long time and finally found something that works.

    One of my family takes Venlafaxine daily - because it's the only one -after playing
    that medecine roulette for nearly 3 years - that brought her severe clinical depression under control. Last year, her chemist changed the prescription, assurring her that it was equivalent in every way...after 3 weeks of feeling increasingly ill, she went back to her GP -who got extremely angry (as did a GP in my family group.) The chemist will not - any time soon - or at all - change a GP's prescription. He said - apparently because I wasnt there - that there was a 'directive' to 'ween clients off Venlafaxine because it was so expensive...'

    Tautoko Matthew- I was in CHCH when the Ellis proscecution began; I publically supported him & law team not least because of the bits I knew about the interviewing of child witnesses and the wild & weird rumours going round the city (and where they originated.)

    Describing a case as 'flakey/flakiness' & queries resulting about them resulting from
    'ill-informed dinner-party discussions' is prats' dismissiveness - now overturned by subsequent results.
    I cannot venture an opinion about Lundy's case - dont known the area, am not really informed about the whole matter - BUT - I do know CHCH-

    I wonder what would happen to any FTA if the USA becomes a fractured or divided country?

    *This* is not an impossibility, and has been contemplated & signalled by USA writers since the 1940s-

  • Cracker: Lundy and Me., in reply to Stephen R,

    I’d throw the Peter Ellis (Christchurch Creche) case in with that lot too.
    That was very disqui

    Very disquieting indeed..."A City Possessed" by Lynley Hood is essential reading
    for those who doubt Ellis's innocence.
