Police said they were able to determine that Lamb had not been inside the car where Stefanson claimed to have found her.

Police said they determined Stefanson had a history of abusing Lamb.

When authorities searched his home in the 3400 block of Coolidge Avenue, they found Lamb’s blood and the blood of two other unidentified women.

Police said Stefanson tortured her in a room set up in his basement, which they described as frightening.

The authorities did not go into great detail regarding the basement; however, it was described as something like out of “Silence of the Lambs”. Police are trying to determine who the woman are who the blood belonged to. Stefanson has a history of abusing women. Police are trying to determine whether there are more women out there who may have been abused by Stafanson and ask that they come forward.

It appeared as if Stefanson had made an attempt to clean up the blood and conceal evidence of Lamb having been at the residence, Jones said. At this point, police have no idea who the other two victims are or even whether they are dead or alive.

When police attempted to arrest Stefanson Tuesday night, he led them on a lengthy chase through Oakland and Hayward, Jones said.

A former wife of an Stefanson she had lived in fear of her husband and endured “major abuse” during their relationship a decade ago.

She said the abuse stopped only after she and her husband, Earl Stefanson, were arrested for running a methamphetamine lab in Butte County.

“I was forced to be there. I was afraid to leave,” said the woman, who has since remarried and asked that she not be named because she was afraid for her safety. “I lived in a state of fear.”

Stefanson, 41, the son of an ex-president of the Hells Angels’ Oakland chapter, was charged Thursday with murdering Leslie Lamb, a single mother who police said was his girlfriend. Police said he had a torture chamber in his home in the Oakland foothills and that they fear he may have harmed other women. (San Francisco Chronicle)

Earl Stefanson has quite the checkered past:

• Ex-wife said she had suffered regular abuse from Stefanson during their five-year marriage. She would not go into details, but said the abuse did not include torture.
• In 1995, she and Stefanson were arrested for allegedly making methamphetamine and growing marijuana in Oroville (Butte County).
•  Stefanson pleaded no contest in June 1996 and was sentenced to nine years in state prison for running a methamphetamine lab.
• she had often seen her daughter with black eyes and bruises. “She got away safe,” she said.
• Court records show that another ex-wife of Stefanson’s, Antonia Gutierrez, obtained a restraining order against him in Fresno County in 1985, alleging harassment.
• The younger Stefanson had one previous encounter with police in Oakland: In 2004, he pleaded no contest to lewd conduct and being drunk in public after police found him masturbating in a pickup truck near 15th and Castro streets, records show. (SF Chronicle)

Cough Cough … Lots of Dust Here

We are in the final stages of the remodel. If you are seeing this we are on the new server and we have moved upgraded to the latest and greatest version of wordpress.

The template we are used to got broken in the move, and negotiations with the moving company are going slowly. (grin)

But a new look is on its way.

Our old hosting company really hit the skids in the past week and as such we have switched hosting companies. One of our other domains moved over the weekend and the server that we have is doing great. So hiccups should be a thing of the past.

Thanks for reading and we hope to have the room cleaned up by your next visit.

Missing Destiny Norton, The Media Has Heard our plea for help … Thank you

The other day we posted and began an email and call campaign to the main stream media to draw more attention to the case of the disappearance of 5 year old Destiny Norton. In a short period of time it has been a success. Tonight, Nancy Grace is stepping up to the plate and doing a segment on Destiny Norton tonight at 8:00 EDT.

Monday’s show

Destiny Norton

Why a false alarm has renewed hopes that a missing five-year-old Utah girl will be found. Tune in Monday at 8 p.m. ET.

Also Dana Pretzer of C-Band Talk Radio will also be doing a segment tonight on the 5 year old missing Destiny Norton. However, Dana’s show is not the MSM, its “MAIN STREET MEDIA.”

We have also received positive feedback from Rita Cosby “Breaking News” and the producers of Joe Scarborough that they would do their best to mention the missing 5 year old. We realize that the MSM gets caught in news cycles; however, they need to realize that numerous stories can be handled at the same time and the law of diminishing returns comes into play when a cable network goes wall-to-wall on one story.
