Chilling 9/11 note finally reaches family
A note that Randy Scott, who perished in the collapse of the World Trade Center, made its way to his family


FoxNews.com, Standford Advocate

12:30 PM PDT, September 10, 2012


"84th Floor west office 12 people trapped."


The words were scrawled on a note by Connecticut resident Randy Scott on the morning of Sept. 11, 2001, when the World Trade Center was attacked. Scott perished that fateful day, but the note withstood the collapse of the towers and was passed from hand to hand for nearly ten years before it finally reached his family, according tothe Stamford Advocate

Scott’s wife, Denise, learned about what her family refers to as “The Note” in August 2011. She had previously believed her husband died instantly after Flight 175 flew into the tower near the offices of Euro Brokers, where he worked. The scrap of paper has robbed the family of any illusion Randy Scott died a quick and merciful death.

"I spent 10 years hoping that Randy wasn't trapped in that building," Denise, 57, said to the newspaper from her Stamford home, with two of her three daughters, Rebecca, 29, and Alexandra, 22, at her side. "You don't want them to suffer. They're trapped in a burning building. It's just an unspeakable horror. And then you get this10 years later. It just changes everything.”

The Note not only has the final words written by Scott, it also has a trace amount of his blood, according to the Advocate. DNA testing confirmed a match and helped the New York City Medical Examiner’s office track down his family, the paper reported.

Randy had phoned Denise before writing the note at the school where she teaches first grade, but believing that the first crash was minor, he simply left a message with the main office letting her know that he was fine, Scott recounted to the Stamford newspaper. Denise Scott said she did not know about the attacks until later that morning, when daughter Rebecca called her from Ohio.

For the next few days, the Scotts frantically checked around at hospitals, hoping the family patriarch had dodged death. Hope slowly gave way, yet they were able to believe that because Scott's office was close to the point of impact, he had not suffered, according to the Advocate.

Just over a year ago, as the nation marked the 10th anniversary of the attacks, Denise Scott was contacted by Dr. Barbara Butcher, head of forensics investigations for the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner of New York, the Advocate reported. A tiny note had been determined to have been written by the hand of Randy Scott.

"She said, 'It's something written.' And that's when I just fell apart," Denise Scott recalled in the interview with the Advocate.

When Scott saw the note, she knew her husband had written it.

"The minute I saw it I didn't need to see the DNA test," she said to the paper. "I saw the handwriting. It's Randy's handwriting."

Such a poignant story.  The family being torn between the emotions of sadness and joy. 

I was teaching 11th graders that day.  I cried for those lost but I also cried for those students because I knew that their lives would never be the same; that this country would never be the same.  And, it hasn't.   an angelic monkey

CBB, I read about the bus wreck in that area on Fox.  Is everyone o.k.?  Said some were injured when the bus rolled over.  Have to be careful on those roads down there:

I hope it isn't inappropriate to post this here, I wasn't certain where it should go.  This appears to be another judge making rather than following laws.  This child is in danger.

Judge Orders Little Four Year Old Eris to Scotland
http://www.bringerishome.com/home

Atlanta, GA October 17, 2011: Little Eris Chafin, just four years old, was ordered removed from her father's care in The United States where she had resided for the past eighteen months, since February, 2010. Federal District Court Judge, Inge Johnson, Clinton Appointee to the Northern District Court of Alabama, turned little Eris over to her Scottish mother, Lynne Hales Chafin. Without intervention from the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals, Mr. Chafin will be forced to plea to Scottish courts for access to his daughter. Within hours of Judge Johnson's ruling, Ms. Chafin removed Eris from the United States.

Breaking News: Boyce, Drunk Driver Who Killed Roe Family of 4, Sentenced to 20 Years in Prison
STAR STAFF REPORT


WINCHESTER -- Steven Boyce, the drunk driver who plowed into a vehicle and killed all four members of the Roe family in 2011, has been sentenced to 20 years in prison.
 
Steven Boyce

 Frederick County Circuit Court Judge Benjamin Kendrick sentenced Boyce, 22, of the 200 block of Hawk Trail in Shawneeland, this morning during an emotional hearing. He pleaded guilty in August avoiding what was expected to be a three-day jury trial.
 ::snipping2::

Boyce received concurrent 15-year sentences (they'll be served at the same time) for each of the four aggravated manslaughter charges. He was then given a 12-month sentence for driving under the influence, 12 months for under-age alcohol possession and three years for a probation revocation. Those three charges will be served consecutively.
Boyce — whose blood was drawn about two hours and 20 minutes after the crash — had a blood-alcohol content of 0.33 percent.
The legal limit for a person under the age of 21 to operate a vehicle in Virginia — Boyce was 20 at the time of the accident — is 0.02. The legal limit to operate a vehicle for a person 21 or older is 0.08 percent. ::snipping2::




This was the sentence that I was expecting. Don't like it, but expected it.
Amanda's Dad and Mark's brother are very upset.

I stand with the girl, Natalee Holloway.

"I can look back over the past 10 years and there were no steps wasted, and there are no regrets,'' she said. "I did all I knew to do and I think that gives me greater peace now." "I've lived every parent's worst nightmare and I'm the parent that nobody wants to be," she said.
