Let this be an inspirational metaphor for many things in life. One never knows exactly where a gift will come from, in what shape, size or appearance.

In the world of missing persons and true crime ... inspirational metaphors are most welcome.

I heart Susan Boyle. I wept when I heard her, back to topic

Female teachers having sex with teenage male students... Is Educational 

I remember it happening when I was in High School. .. A long long time ago.

I do not think anyone was hurt for life over it. It was bragging rights for the boy.. lol

Anyways... I am just sayin.. 

I think it has been going on a very long time.

Not to pick on you Edward but murder has been around since Cain and Abel too.  Doesn't make it right.  I remember this kind of thing going on at our school also.  Didn't think a lot of it then, but with adulthood usually comes a much different perspective.  My daughter worked at  boys town for several years.  She has seen a lot of damaged young people of both sexes.  While I am shocked that the alleged perpetrator is a women, with what she has seen, she is not.

Suspect in gruesome murder grew up in O.C.
Melissa Huckaby blended in at local high school before she hit a rocky patch.

Ten years ago, Melissa Huckaby gossiped about cheerleaders in physics class, dressed up like a cat for Halloween and chatted with her dance teacher during lunch or after school.

She didn't dress in an unusual way. She didn't act out. She just blended in at Brea Olinda High School, friends and a teacher recall.

It's a stark contrast to the image of a woman, accused of a child's murder, that's being flashed in media outlets today.

Huckaby, 28, is facing charges of murder, kidnapping, rape with a foreign object and lewd or lascivious conduct in connection with the death of 8-year-old Sandra Cantu in Tracy, a town near San Francisco. Sandra, a playmate of Huckaby's daughter, was found in a suitcase in a pond.

Huckaby's ex-husband told ABC's Good Morning America on Friday he was in "shock and disbelief" when he heard about her arrest, The Associated Press reported.

"It's not something you want to think anyone possibly (is capable) of doing – let alone somebody that you knew and that's a mother of your child," John Huckaby said. He said their 5-year-old daughter, Madison, is in a "safe place" and doesn't know anything about the case, the AP reported.

HIGH SCHOOL YEARS

Huckaby grew up in La Habra and attended Brea Olinda High School from 1995 to 1999.

One of Melissa Huckaby's high school teachers also was baffled.

"It's shocking that anyone would do that, but it's very surprising that Melissa would do it," Brea Olinda's former dance director, Carole Finn, said about the murder allegations. Finn was Huckaby's high school dance instructor.

"I think sometimes kids in high school, you see there's hatred or they are upset about things in the world. … But Melissa was never that way."

At school, Huckaby showed no signs of trouble.

Classmate Charya Lon, a cheerleader who was a year younger than Huckaby, used to chat with Huckaby, a dancer, during physics class about cheerleading and dance. Huckaby told her that some of the cheerleaders were mean, but that Lon was a nice one. In her yearbook, Huckaby wrote that Lon was a cool person and wished her an awesome senior year.

"She had plenty of friends. She was not an outcast by any means. She was very friendly. Everybody liked her. I don't know anybody who didn't like her," Lon said.

Huckaby served as the secretary of the dance performing group, according to the 1999 yearbook.

Finn said Huckaby and a friend would regularly visit her during lunch and after school. Finn doesn't believe Huckaby had previous dance training but enjoyed dancing. Huckaby never caused any problems.

Finn said she recognized Huckaby when she saw the police mug shot.

"I said, 'It's Melissa.' I immediately knew who it was. Immediately. Like a flashback," Finn said.

But the image is not the way Finn remembers her.

"She was always so cooperative and nice. And it's just so sad. I'm just so sad about that," Finn said.

"You know there … are students, they did something bad and you say, 'Oh well, I could see that coming.' But that wasn't the case with Melissa at all. You never would have dreamt that she (would do) anything bad."

TOUGH PERIOD

In recent years, she has gone back and forth between Orange County and Tracy, most recently moving to the Northern California town about a year ago to live with her grandparents. Her grandfather, Clifford Lawless, declined to comment.

Sometime after high school, Huckaby hit a tough period, according to court records and family members in other reports.

Before moving to Tracy, Huckaby rented a room for a few months in a four-bedroom house in La Palma in 2007.

"She was very nice ... very cordial," said Evelyn Lloyd, her housemate who lived at the house for about 12 years. "Every girl who ended up in (that) house had a story. She (Huckaby) really didn't have a story. She was very secretive."

At first, Lloyd said she "never detected any depression or craziness or any violent behavior."

But then, in 2007, two fires were set at the house just eight days apart. Lloyd was arrested in the first fire on July 20, but the case against her was dismissed. Lloyd said Huckaby might have set her up.

Huckaby and her daughter were at the house when the second fire broke out, on July 28, said La Palma Police Chief Edward Ethell. Everyone who lived at the house, including Huckaby, was questioned about the fire.

Huckaby was considered a "person of interest," but she was not arrested, Ethell said. La Palma police officers are sharing information about the fire case with the Tracy Police Department and the investigation is ongoing, Ethell said.

Cypress police also are cooperating with the Tracy Police Department, said Sgt. Tom Bruce, but he declined to say if officers provided information about any specific incidents.

CRIME TROUBLE

Huckaby also faced other crime trouble.

In 2006, Huckaby was convicted of petty theft in Los Angeles County, according to The Associated Press.

More recently in November, Huckaby was arrested and charged with burglary and petty theft from a store in San Joaquin County, according to The Associated Press. In a deal with prosecutors, she pleaded no contest in January to the petty theft charge, and the burglary charge was dropped. She was sentenced to three years' probation and was required to participate in a county mental-health program for a year.

However, Huckaby didn't show up for an April3 hearing – a week after Sandra's disappearance. The hearing was rescheduled for April 17. But by then, Huckaby was already arrested on suspicion of Sandra's slaying. Her next court date is Friday.

MARRIAGE AND MOTHERHOOD

Some of her troubles seem to have started about the time she got married.

In May 2003, she married John Huckaby. The same month, she filed for bankruptcy, listing $26,313 in debt, records show. Four months later, Melissa Huckaby gave birth to their daughter, Madison, in San Joaquin County.

Bankruptcy court records show her debts were discharged, and the case was closed in August 2003.

But the couple separated about two years into the marriage, according to divorce court records in Orange County Superior Court. The divorce was finalized in September 2005. Melissa Huckaby listed her parents' Cypress address in court records.

According to the Topeka Capital-Journal, John Huckaby lived in Topeka for several years and remarried there. As recently as February, Melissa Huckaby was seeking child support payments from Huckaby through Kansas courts, according to the Topeka newspaper.

While she was going through the divorce, Huckaby got a job in May 2005 as a medical biller at Associated Therapists in Huntington Beach, where she earned $11 an hour. A man who answered the phone at Associated Therapists declined to comment. Huckaby also got $237 a month in public assistance.

Huckaby's uncle, John Hughes Jr. of Whittier, told The Associated Press that Huckaby had trouble finding and keeping a job. Family members told media outlets that Huckaby was sometimes depressed.

TIGHT-KNIT FAMILY

Despite her troubles, Huckaby comes from a strong family, acquaintances said.

Roberta O'Toole, the manager of the homeowners association where the Lawless family lives, said Huckaby's mother, Judy, regularly keeps an eye on the neighborhood, alerting neighbors if she sees that officers are about to ticket a car.

"They were really good, and they've just never been on my radar as a problem family at all," O'Toole said.

Pastor Eric Brown of First Missionary Baptist Church in Bellflower, which the family attends, said that Huckaby only occasionally went to the church between 2005 and 2008, but that her parents and younger sister are involved. Huckaby helped in her daughter's Sunday school class a few times.

Brown said she knows that Huckaby faced challenges.

"She struggled with it. But I see all kinds of people struggling," Brown said. "This was just a shock to everyone around here. I don't know how else to describe it."

He said he has talked to Brian Lawless, Huckaby's father, and church members are praying for both the Lawless and Cantu families.

Hi Monkeys

I was poking around yesterday On facebook. MH still has her face book. Well its Melissa Lawless ..not Huckaby. Any way I was intrigued to look at her friends and see their friends.

Everyone is somehow connected by a Church or by being within the Baptist religion. There are people from every corner of the US on these peoples friends lists. The religion aspect, I could care less my point is - HOW  do these people find each other? Its like a Network.
Do they search for the word " Baptist" and then add them as friend. I just think dang I am 43 yrs old and .. I have a handful of friends and they are not spread all over the USA.
I chased some of the names of these people and does add up. Their name comes up that they work for a certain company. You go to find the " company" online and its a false lead. There is no such company ..hmmph. I dont know - Just thought I would throw that out.

that is very strange .

[Deenie]

I wanted to add to the Posts of Women " Teachers" that abuse their Title - and stalk kids for their own personal giggles..literally.

I had a Teacher in my first year of Middle School. She was my Art Teacher. I always took Art serious it was not a blow off class to me.  She was looking back probably in her late 20's or early 30's. She was very groomed. She always had on very " trendy" clothing, she wore a Ton of Gold Jewelry .. every day it was different. She was a Tanorexic - Was addicted to Tanning .. I live in Mich ..I know a Tanorexic when I see one.
Her nails had jewelry in them, like pierced into her nails.. always perfect and noticeable. She wore a ton of perfume too - gag. Hair perfect all that ... Remember this is Middle School - Kids that are very impressionable ages ... She had huge Boobs - and wore shirts that you could see her cleavage - Always they were showing.

She from Day one in class - brought her Energy into the room that girls were 2nd class and the Boys were her # 1 priority. Time went on and she then started this Pet Chair BS. She had a desk that was Higher than the work tables we sat at. She would pull up a stool to her desk and Pick a BOY to sit and work at her Desk..to lure him closer to him.
ALL the Girls noticed this - was not just me. She picked the boys that were in sports. She was mentoring them  - she just wanted them closer to her. She would praise them, fall all over them .. and literally GUSh when they would sit at her desk .. If a female student needed help - Her Tune would flip and change and she would be down right rude. The Boys knew they ruled in her class.

** After I graduated from High School - I heard thru the grapevine from one of my Best Male friends who is in LE - that she was Arrested for Child Pornography, for Taking Pictures of Students that she would have " Sleep over" party's at her house ... BOTH Boys and Girls. Primarily Boys though. Did it Shock me ..Not Really because I always thought she was a WACK Job. She lost her Teaching License, and I do not know where she is now. I pray that she is not teaching in another state .. That she skirted the system like many of these Teachers do. I just knew from Day one this Woman was up to no good and Teaching was not her first priority. I left middle school in 1979-80 - she was not arrested until late 80's .. I wonder how many Kids lives she messed up. She was the classic " groomer" - I hope she is in jail. Witch.

That indeed is strange. Maven thanks for the article, I wonder if Melissa started those fires? 

[Deenie]

I looked up these people and it says they work for yadda - Well you go and chase " company" and there is a website ... Yet it is Fake or is non working. One in particular was a company of a Man on MH's face book. Chase his name -It comes up with his name that he works for CFS Consulting.

It does go to a website that is for Contract Employee's for work ... Like a Head Hunter site. Funny it has no jobs available, no real anything on the site and its in Canada. And it says it was updated in 2009.
UH.. what. The owner of the Company her bio is listed on the web page- Snipped
http://www.cfsglobal.com/Home_Page.html
She has conducted international recruitment campaigns in South Africa, the United Kingdom and Australia for Canadian engineering companies and is experienced in all aspects of expatriate issues

I chased the name of the company for over and hour - this is the site.
The More I dig .. I keep coming back to Canada with MH and the Lawless which - goes back to the Washington Connection. Because Washington State is the closest to Canada.

I will continue digging ...

How these People Search Engines work - this Veromi is new to me.  I use www.pipl.com which I  find my info and or bits and pieces .. of keys ..that I go on and search more from what I find.

How Veromi Works - snipped from FAQ of Veromi.net http://www.veromi.net/help/default.aspx#31
The records come from public records that are compiled by various public offices and agencies with the intent and for the purpose of being made publicly available. The records also come from publicly available information. Our records are compiled from many public record sources including but not limited to: white pages information, real property records, death records, magazine subscriptions and voter registration. Record collection for some databases began in the early 1980's so the databases contain many historical records.

  all starts from scratch and then it all starts falling into place when you chase ..the info.

 

[Leroy]

Deenie - thank you so much for all the info.  Especially about Veromi...i have to check that one out for another one I am looking into.

[no rose colored glasses]

Deenie - thank you so much for all the info.  Especially about Veromi...i have to check that one out for another one I am looking into.

Yes, thank-you, I remember in the beginning, there was talk about this P Martinez guy living with the pastor, and then it seemed like nobody talked about it anymore, so I just figured it was a mistake.

[Deenie]

Deenie - thank you so much for all the info.  Especially about Veromi...i have to check that one out for another one I am looking into.

You go Leroy ..

I am telling you that this " MH " is where she is right now behind Bars - because she opened her mouth. Why ? Because she is protecting and using herself as a sway...away from all that is within this " society" that she has been a part of for a very long time.

SHE was Involved with Sandra's demise ..but she was instructed ..to do just this. Find us a Child. Because it all goes back to the little girl that lived in the MHP that Melissa took without her Mom's permission to the Park.
That the Mom claims she had no Cell Phone number of MH, and called the Lawless home frantic ..Where is My Daughter? and then Lawless Grandparents contacted MH - MOM is freaking out and wants her Daughter NOW .. ( after Grandmother of this Child let MH take the Child to the Park with Madison) **** If Madison was there .. that is a wonder in itself.
That it came out that LE was sent to MH/Lawless Home at 2 am that this Child had been Drugged .......... She MH got away with it. She took and drugged this kid and did what? She was Paid and paid Good.
Allegedly this Child was in MH's Care and was Drugged. What happened to this child within the time she was with MH? Did someone take pictures of her ? Did someone abuse her sexually without causing any bodily harm and take photos... I am telling you Leroy..something is seriously wrong .. All the findings of the residents in the MHP while searching for Sandra ..the discovery of Child Porn in residents homes " Computer" why is that now not a priority ..nor spoken of.
So she was told by  go find us another child. This time though, it was not a Cake Walk for MH. She was told go get a Child, Sandra was right there for the picking - so she took Sandra and baited, lured, drugged her ..thinking ok - This will be like last time.
After all is said and done - Sandra will only be missing for a short while .. I will say Sandra was with me ..return her home and all is forgiven.
But something went seriously wrong - Sandra O'd or she was awake and she witnessed People and would TALK. So who ever is within this Sick Bunch - Killed her and then stuffed her in a suitcase and ..tossed her ..
Why I am so sure of this - Is the statements made by Connie Lawless - How she says on April 7th on Camera on Video - Who would Abuse/Murder Sandra ... This was 4 DAYS prior to Sandra's body being found. Why would Connie Lawless make such statements when NOTHING had been released to the public ..that they even had a Lead on Sandra's disappearance. That no one knew anything of anything. Connie and Pastor Lawless know a lot .... A lot ..but since they are portrayed as this simple elderly couple ..representing a Church .. Hmm. So What .. No one suspected MH either till she opened her mouth.

Leroy do you think that someone is Corrupt in Tracy LE? I mean seriously if a elementary age Child was taken by a Neighbor and returned to Home acting strange and was found that the child had drugs in her system ..Would that NOT be All over the News ...??

I wonder who this little girl is, rumor has it that it was Sandra, but regardless of who the child was, I cannot for the life of me figure out why this didn't go further, and if it did, what happened with the investigation? I have thought also about something going on in the Tracy PD why this, and the Tracy 60 hasn't gone further and arrests made, except for one person. And it sure seems weird, the three men in the mobile park, taking cars, and who knows what else. And again, I go back to those grandparents of Melissa, something seems off with those two.

Listen very carefully to the video, the part about the park.
You  know if you listen to the video, you wil hear MH screw up the details of the park and what I think happened the day Sandra went missing, I had taken my dd and one of her friend to the park as I had done 3 times that week... I had given my cell number but she claimed to have lost it , The mom came home, didn't know where she was. The police was called out,  my grandmother called me and told me her mom didn't know where she was , she says something about her being missing her mother did not knows she was missing....   police was called, I was then called by my gm to come home mom didn't know she was missing, so I brought her home. later that night the police

Strange, sounds so much like she is talking about 2 different times. I think in the call she accidently get the two situations confused. I have a question, didn't LE say they didn't know of the drugging incident? Didn't the Sgt say that during a press conference?

[Tracygirl]

Ok what I wrote didn't make sense, sorry. I had written it out two times and they got all tangled up. My point was, if yo listen to the video it sounds like she is talking about 2 different things when speaking about the park. I wonder if she mistakenly said that her gm called on her cell to let her know Sandra was missing...

It does sound like she is mixing two separate events, what I would love to know, who was this child Melissa took to the park three times? Is this park close to the mobil park? But the biggest question is, why is Melissa saying all this stuff to the reporter?
