The Wonderland Gang Murders
The Wonderland murders, also known as the Four on the Floor Murders and the Laurel Canyon Murders, are four unsolved homicides that occurred in Los Angeles on July 1, 1981. Investigators believe that the targets were the five Wonderland gang members named for Wonderland Avenue, where they rented a house. Yet, only three were there at the time of the assassinations, along with one known associate and the gang leader’s wife. That evening, unknown assailants broke in and bludgeoned four of the occupants to death with hammers and pipes, leaving the fifth barely alive.

The lost boys
Frequently, my grandson asks me what I did for fun as a child. I told him I grew up during the late 70s and early 80s. It was a different time. We didn’t have cellphones, cable television or even a computer. We spent our days riding bikes, playing football or we just took long walks.

The first rule of Care bear...we always talk about care bear.
In May of 2019 I started developing a conference I dubbed KCCO Baby Quantico Care bear Cartel Army. Carebear never operates in reverse..it was taken from Pay it Forward..We all know the movie with Helen Hunt and Hailey Joel Osment. If not here you go - A struggling single mother, a social studies teacher whose placid life is in perfect order and the student whose class assignment has profound repercussions when, instead of paying it back, the recipient of a kindness must Pay It Forward. The assignment is simple: Look at the world around you and fix what you don't like. #1 It has to be something that really helps people #2 Something they can't do by themselves. #3 Do it for them, and they do it for three other people. These are the first rules of KCCO- Keep Calm and Carebear on (No trademark infringement intended. Doing Business As is Valkyiere's Sanctuary.

The Disappearance of Security
At first I thought about her every day, every second. She crowded my worst nightmares and clouded my daydreams. I Googled her name several times a day hoping to see a positive update in her disappearance and news that she had returned home. However, as time aged and as her whereabouts got more confusing, she began to fade from my daily monitoring, but not from my thoughts. I had never met her, never came across the people who loved her, but little by little, Phoenix’s story merged into my own – a young, Black woman from the St. Louis suburbs who loved hard and trusted easily.
