It's my opinion....

I had a post written yesterday, but as luck would have it when I hit the "publish" button, a message came up that said they had trouble processing my command or something like that. At first it made me mad because I couldn't retrieve it. As I thought about it, it was probably a blessing. I was very frustrated and angry at the lies and deceit that is constantly put out to the public. Hate, that is generated from a select few and prepetuated throughout the world wide web. It's sad that people have to use deceit, misrepresented facts, half truths, and just bold faced, flat out lies to try to garner support for a woman who sits in prison that put herself and what she wanted in life before her own child, and who by the evidence and facts in the case is highly suspected of killing her own child. And yes, like it or not, she IS a suspect in killing her child.






Those that support RD, sadly concentrate on "the Briggs" instead of the two people that were in the home with Kelsey the day she was murdered. Why? Why throw rocks at, promote hate towards, lie about and put the concentration of the case onto people who could not have possibly have killed Kelsey? There is only ONE reason for that. To deflect the concentration and blame from the guilty party. If they want to take the attention and focus off of Raye Dawn, why don't they put it on the only other person who could have possibly killed Kelsey....Porter? Does this make any sense to anyone else? It doesn't to me. What it does do, is show the hate being constantly promoted towards "the Briggs".






If they want to look outside the two that could have killed her, then instead of throwing suspicion towards the only part of Kelsey's family that tried to save her, let's talk about the part of Kelsey's family that did nothing. FACT is...Gayla Smith failed Kelsey too. More than what they try to lay blame at "the Briggs" feet. What did Gayla do, to help Kelsey? What did Gayla do, to protect and save Kelsey? Anyone? FACT also is, Gayla Smith is guilty of "enabling child abuse" by her own testimony, according to the DA, Richard Smothermon.






Did Gayla hear the same "excuses" for Kelsey's injuries that we have since heard, that were all blamed on Porter allegedly at the times they were happening? Or did Gayla help Raye Dawn come up with those excuses to blame Porter? Could be.






Personally, it is my opinion, Gayla knows more than she is telling. Personally I believe that Gayla is more involved in this than we will ever know or be told. She was gone for a couple hours the day Kelsey died. Where was she? Have phone records been checked to see if there was any communication between RD and Gayla that afternoon prior to Kelsey's death, when RD was allegedly taking a nap? Did RD call her mom and tell her what she did and that something was wrong with Kelsey? Did Gayla call RD? Why wasn't there any talk of Gayla questioning why the plans changed and Kelsey wasn't brought to her as planned that afternoon? What does Gayla know that she's NOT telling?






Personally, I believe what Debbie Hammons said in her letter to the OSBI agents. She had absolutely no reason and no motive to lie about any of it. Did Gayla get away with murder once and then help her daughter try to get away with murder with Kelsey?






I do know that the part of the OSBI tapes where Gayla and RD are having such a "hush hush" conversation and the monologue cannot be heard, is being put into some programs to see if it can be enhanced to hear what they were saying that they didn't want anyone else to hear. I have to question Gayla's lack of surprise when being told that Kelsey did not die from a seizure as she allegedly thought. As there was with Raye Dawn, there was absolutely no element of surprise or shock value when Gayla was told that Kelsey was murdered. NONE. What does that tell us?






Certain RD supporters want you to focus on Kathie and Lance. Why? They did not have opportunity or motive to kill Kelsey. For them to even try to focus on Mike Porter, still holds Raye Dawn accountable and responsible because RAYE DAWN lived in the home with Porter. Raye Dawn was court ordered to not have Kelsey around Porter...so what does she do? She marries him. Raye Dawn is the one who tells all the "excuses" and she is the one who says...well she was with Mike when that happened...to each and every incident. Let's say for sake of arguement for the moment, that all Kelsey's injuries were "accidents". How plausible is it that ALL the injuries or "accidents" happened when Raye Dawn was NOWHERE around? None of the injuries does she admit to being there with Kelsey when they happened. That is totally unreasonable. If they were "accidents", why lie? I mean gosh, she said that her and Kelsey were ALWAYS together. What she means by that I guess is that they were ALWAYS together EXCEPT for ALL those times that Kelsey was injured, bruised and beaten. So much for "ALWAYS" being together, huh?






If Raye Dawn had nothing to hide, then why did she lie to the OSBI agents during their questioning her? Did she really "want to know what happened to Kelsey" or did she already know?






Gayla says "we was starting to watch him". If Gayla, as Kelsey's other grandma, was concerned enough to start watching Porter, they why didn't she call and make her suspicions and concerns known to anyone at all? She didn't call DHS. She didn't call law enforcement. She didn't call the attorney. She didn't call "the Briggs". She didn't call the CASA worker. She did absolutely nothing about her alleged concerns and suspicions that were allegedly making her start "watching" Porter. Her own daughter had been accused of abusing Kelsey. Kelsey had been taken from Raye Dawn and embarrassed the whole family by DHS involvement in that family, because of suspision and allegations of abuse. Abuse had been confirmed against Kelsey nameing Gayla's own daughter as the "confirmed" abuser. If things were happening that was making it obvious enough to Gayla that Porter was the one hurting Kelsey why would she not contact SOMEONE and say HEY! this is what's going on and I think Porter is hurting Kelsey? or say something...anything???? Makes absolutely NO sense. As do most of the lies being told in defense of Raye Dawn do not make sense.








You fight lies with truth. Truth does not change. Facts do not change. Look at the youtube videos, not only being reposted on another blog, but all over youtube. How many of those videos promote hate against "the Briggs"? They say that Kelsey supporters promote hate against Raye Dawn, and someone else that wants to be important in this case and obviously wants to make some money off Kelsey's name, wants you to believe that a huge amount of hate is being promoted against her. But reality and truth is, if you search through youtube, you will see "who" it is that is "promoting hate" and the larger amount of "hate" is being promoted against "the Briggs", NOT against RD, the Smiths or the unknown self important person. That is fact folks.




In my opinion, no matter what we do or say we are not going to get the hate to stop.  One person won't let it stop.  They provoke it and no matter how much they say they want it to stop, I don't believe they do.  Yes, that is my opinion.  I believe they like the attention they get from it and they have a motive behind it all, which is easy to see.  Probably more attention than they have ever gotten.  It's sad that someone would use a dead child for their own personal agenda and gain, but there are many people out there that do just that.  They don't care, they have no personal attachment to the child.  I'm not stating this as fact, just my personal opinions after a long time of observation of the situation. 



I wish they would hurry up with the appeal decision.  Although I believe that she will lose her appeal, when that happens I also believe things will escalate towards the Briggs family.  I hope I'm wrong on that.

  1. I hope that you are wrong as well, Starla. But, if the Smith family went to such lengths to plant a listening device in the Briggs' household, who knows when or how it will end. I'm praying for the entire Briggs family.
