The Mickey Shunick Story

[geo_cajun]

My wife graduated from UL in the Liberal arts college, and a part of the ceremony they gave Mickey's father her diploma (anthropology). It was very moving, in fact just thinking about it gets me a little choked up. I thought it was a sincere, and appropriate tribute.

Everything I've seen and read makes me think the school was very supportive before and after she was found.

Makes me wonder if Lourdes hadn't shut down and moved shop if they would've still had a boat load of Security cameras all along that area. Would've nailed this cat a lot quicker.

They often get criticized. But, the police department did an outstanding job.

+1....I'm no detective, but it looked like a difficult case to crack.

I was very impressed with "Charlie" Shunick. What a strong, determined, amazing young lady.

I had lunch and visited with prosecutor Kieth Stutes yesterday-----great guy and was able to ask him some personal questions on the case ---came away knowing what a great professional he is and that all can be proud of how the Acadiana community stepped forward after this horrendous act---but, hey, we do the same in hurricanes and other disasters----WE are the Ragin' Cajuns and Creoles that make up the best place in the world to live!!!!

I'm sure Mr. & Mrs Shunick are proud of both of them.

This maggot thinks he should have a lifestyle in prison that is different than someone who admitted to similar crimes. The Daily Disappointment is fueling his ego every time they print something about him. They are both scumbags.

They keep him segregated because he already has too many stab wounds and would have a hard time explaining to the REAL men of Angola how he got the ones he has.
