“Let her go, let her go, GOD BLESS HER, wherever she may be”
Is a line from “Saint James Infirmary Blues”

Human beings are perhaps the only species that has the neurological capacity to experience mysticism. This capacity, perhaps essential for imagination and creativity, has been expressed in various forms throughout history. In this neo pagan era where people openly disdain traditional religion especially Christianity, this mysticism is still expressed in many ways, many of them disturbing and often leading to tragedy. One can only wonder what was going through Laundrie’s mind when he had his final confrontation with this young woman who apparently had her own demons.
I’ve always been inclined toward a sort of ‘nympholepsy’ myself - in the sense of an ecstasy toward something materially impossible.
I’ve always figured that Christian Mysticism was going after the same sort of thing.
It’s still possible that it was an accidental death. Erotic asphyxiation, maybe.
“It’s still possible that it was an accidental death. Erotic asphyxiation, maybe.”
Possible, but I don’t think a jury would by it.
WHO CARES?? Enough with this stupid trivial story that only serves to distract Americans from the Democrat disaster.
This crap is absurd. The skeleton pic is from the popular movie and graphic novel Watchmen. I have it and so do millions of others. Fight Club is one of the best movies of the 90’s. I have it and so do millions of others. Hellboy is a quite good movie. I have it and so do millions of others. Frankenstein is a classic novel and movie. I have it and so do millions of others. I guess than means we’re all potential murderers. SMFH
Agree. NOTHING wrong with those pics.
I like the dark. I haven’t killed my wife.
Depends on the forensic evidence.
“WHO CARES?? Enough with this stupid trivial story that only serves to distract Americans from the Democrat disaster.”
Stupid to you perhaps, but not to others who are into the mystery of what really happened. Why did you even get on this thread if you are so disinterested? By the way there are 24 hours in a day; we are all capable of chewing gum and rubbing our belly at the same time. Politics and a crime story are not mutually exclusive.
There’s plenty of time to think about both, and I think the popularity of this who-dunnit is as an escape route from constant, unrelenting bad political news, 24/7. It is for me. It’s not for you to judge which threads should be of interest to Freepers and which should not.
Stay off the Gabby threads and you won’t get your nose out of joint about this distracting from politics that is ubiquitous and impossible to avoid even if one wanted to. Oh, and stay off all threads that have subject matter other than politics and what the Dems are up to, which is always to no good. Don’t cheat now, lol. Only go on political threads or we’ll be able to catch you making comments on non-political ones. That could be fun. Just sayin ....

No, but you and the “million others” you think share the same collective interests as Brian, sure do have weird tastes if you are fixating on this kind of subject matter. Brian fixated on lots of occult, creepy and bizarre interests to the exclusion of other ordinary interests it appears. He even looks the part facially with the shape of his mustache/beard of a devil-like persona. Especially from the side view.
For those who may have missed my initial post re Gabby/Brian referred to on this thread, here it is again. If you’ve already read this, then just skip over it and ignore; it’s not hard to do that, but what I said is perfect for this particular thread that speaks to Brian’s interest in the dark side and perhaps a reason for it:
I figured out what is going on here when the light bulb went on the day before yesterday. I heard on TV a commentator speaking about this Gabby/Brian case who stated that Gabby (who lived with Brian Laundrie and his parents for 2 years) would periodically go back to stay with her own parents when Brian became too much for her to deal with and that Brian “heard voices”. My ears immediately perked up: Brian is a schizophrenic.
That explains so much of Gabby & Brian’s toxic interactions. Highs and lows, paranoia about what Gabby was up to, corralling her off from her friends, controlling (as in his mind he was actually out of control himself) and hearing voices. All classic signs of paranoia and schizophrenia. And schizophrenia most often manifests itself between the ages of 18-23. Brian established his relationship with Gabby at the approx. age of 21; he is now 23.
There is an on-line website that started my thinking he was schizo that shows art that he has done. He is a comic book addict, and drew some of the characters, namely Hell Boy, and others. He also drew other pics that are on this same website of, get this: the devil, a screaming skeleton, knives, or daggers if you prefer dripping with blood, the picture of a man with a wolf’s head, with 3 figures standing behind him holding guns, one of the comic book characters is drawn such that it looks phallic, like a penis.
Schizophrenics, in their art work (I consulted with my friend who is an art therapist with extensive psychology and some training in psychiatry background) about my suspicions, told her about Brian hearing voices, and we studied together while talking on the phone the website showing Brian’s drawings. She totally agrees that Brian is most likely to be schizophrenic.
My friend still has a picture done by one of the schizophrenic patients she did art therapy with while working on the psychiatric ward of a large middle west city hospital affiliated with a prominent University. Many of the schizo patients on the ward where she worked were very bright individuals, some being students at the University where the hospital with the psychiatric ward was located (genius bordering on insanity?). My friend had shown me the picture many years ago (it was a large, maybe 16 x 20 or thereabouts pic) that was framed and hanging on her house wall; it was fascinating.
Schizos in their pics, often use random numerology, numbers strewn arbitrarily about in their paintings. They often put devil figures or heads in their art, and phallic symbols, and knives, or guns or other objects or portrayals of violence. All this coming out of their mentally sick state of mind, the inner turmoil, and it gets worse with age.
Paranoia is another major symptom of this disease, paranoid schizophrenia. And this is what my friend and I agreed that we believe Brian to be, a paranoid schizophrenic. We both wonder if this was already known by Brian’s parents (which could explain their over protectiveness towards their son) and has already been diagnosed as such. Because of HIPPA laws this info would not be divulged to the public, and thus to the media. They are not privy to Brian or Gabby’s mental records. Gabby herself probably has certain mental problems of her own. She self described herself when talking to the police when she and Brian had an altercation, that she was OCD (Obsessive/Compulsive disorder). So mentally toxic meets very mentally toxic (Brian) and the end result is a dead Gabby and a missing Brian.
No, but you and the “million others” you think share the same collective interests as Brian, sure do have weird tastes if you are fixating on this kind of subject matter.

I can’t imagine any ...
If they find a bullet, it wasn’t erotic asphyxiation.
You have flipped 180.
