12-19-05: Titus &y Ryan Murder Case - updated daily

[JPM]

Twenty years from now we can all go up to Carson City, Nev and hold a candle light service, in front of the gates of the prison, to not execute Titus & Ryan like they did Tookie. Even though Titus has redeemed himself in the past twenty years and now writes children books on how to spike your protein shake with Gh and not leave needle marks in your butt, the law will probably still be unfair to him.  Maybe get a couple of B list actors to step in front of the mike and say how inhuman the state is. But I know Governor Cutler will go ahead anyway. Lucky that the crime was not in Utah where the firing squad does the job, I believe.

No way.....luminol reacts to hemagloban in the blood, and that cannot removed short of fire............

I think it only reacts to the iron in the hemoglobin, but I may be wrong.

I think it only reacts to the iron in the hemoglobin, but I may be wrong. 

To be exact, it reacts to hemoglobin (an oxygen-carrying protein in red-blood cells). Luminol is so sensitive it can detect blood at 1 part per million.

In other words, if there is one drop of blood within a container of 999,999 drops of water, luminol will show the blood.

You can't hide/mask/destroy  blood evidence as long as luminol is around.........fire will do the job though....

This is classic - there is a boxflex add in the middle of the article - when you click the word "fitness".  Probably not the best place for and add...

I think he's with Carmen Sandiago.

[Mr. Zimbabwe]

Yeah, they should have gone for the Jeffry Dahmer thing... stowed it in the fridge, gone out to a secluded spot, dug a very deep hole.

Jeffrey never dug any holes.  He cooked the body parts with a light peppercorn glaze in red wine sauce.   Mmmmmmmmm!

Titus for athletes rep.

Well, Titus won the publiity war over Kamali. 

Now who will King trash talk with to sell his tee shirts?

News reports have confirmed the victim as Mellissa James:

"There is new information as police continue to search for two champion bodybuilders accused of killing a woman and then burning her body. A police report identifies the victim as 28-year-old Melissa James. Her body was found in a burned out car last Wednesday.

James was apparently strangled and then the car was set on fire. Police also say James was a personal assistant living with Craig Titus and his wife, Kelly Ryan. Also in the report, Titus admits to having an affair with Melissa James. Police haven't said if that's a motive."

  To me, the story would be much more interesting if it was Phil Baroni who was found in the trunk of the car.

Wonder if he will sell his used orange inmate jump suits?

  I just can't wait for the episode of Dog the Bounty Hunter with Craig Titus and Kelly Ryan.

The best way is to get ahold of my freind who has about 6 tigers.  He won't feed them for a couple days.  I promise there won't be anything left of anyone after hungry tigers get done.  There is millions of acres around Vegas to bury a body.  It has been done that way for decades.

Earl will be posting shortly because of the "its not a sport" statement.

Earl has turned to the "Dark Side" of the force......

The days of his posting "it's not a sport" are over......

He is now one of us......

I think hogs work the best -- think they eat the bones and all.

There is no good way to get rid of a body.
 
Fresh corpses to the most badly decomposed bodies, forensic scientists attempt achieve the answers to three key questions: who is the victim, when did he die and how did he die.
 
BURYING
 
 
Analysis: A buried body decomposes about six to seven times slower than a body dumped above ground. This improves the chances investigators will determine identity, time of death and cause of death. Almost all buried bodies are found in very shallow graves that are easily discovered. Veteran homicide investigators say this is because killers do not appreciate the time and labor involved in digging a grave large enough to accommodate a human body. "Nobody digs a hole 6 feet in the ground to bury a murder victim," said Lt. Wayne Petersen, who commanded the homicide unit from 1996 to 2001. "Thank goodness criminals are lazy."
 
 
On the other hand there is the option of burning the body.
 
BURNING
 
Analysis: Forensic pathologists examine soft tissue in determining a person's identity and how they died. But when flames consume all flesh and organs, they are often left with little to work with. When you burn a body, you can get rid of bullet trauma and sharp force wounds. They can be kind of obliterated along with the soft tissue. This necessitates the expertise of a forensic anthropologist. Such experts can often determine a cause of death through examination of skeletal remains. If the teeth are recovered, identification is typically easily made through dental records.
 
So to come to the conclusion that the alleged killers thought that burning the bodies was a bad choice is a bit premature. There have been a number of bodies burned in cars in the Nevada desert. Using your own vehicle to do the deed is a bit dumbfounding to say the least. 

How about this:

Chop the head off, and pull all the teeth out. Bury the head in a remote location. This should be much easier than burying an entire body. Undress the body, dismember it, and drop the pieces at various locations. It should only take a week or two for the remains to be rendered unrecognizable. Dump all clothes and blood stained utensils in a dumpster. Throw the teeth out along the highway.

Got this from a reliable source.

Guest threatened to go to police about Titus dealing steroids. Heated argument. Titus choked guest, went further than intended, guest dead.

Titus and Ryan are already in Brazil.

Oh, man if this is the truth -- the dealing steroids part -- the media is going to have a HUGE boner over this.

Timing is everything.

[G o a t b o y]

Titus and Ryan are already in Brazil.

Well, if they're telling people where they're at, it won't be long before they're caught.

It'll be a lot easier to run from the law at 220 than at 260.
