Bad Ass Mom ~ The Case of Miriam Elizabeth Rodriguez Martinez Part 2

Image
  Miriam had been disappointed after giving Zetas gang member Sama two thousand dollars for his help in finding her abducted daughter, and nothing came of that; until one day...  She did however admit to her other daughter that she now believed Karen was dead, but was now on a mission of justice and will NOT rest until she has hunted down each one of her kidnappers. This mother went into FBI mode, searching all over the world-wide web, using social media to find out where Sama lived, or frequented. She would go into his neighbourhood after she dyed her hair red and wore on old uniform. She had noticed on social media that he would spend a lot of time at one of his female acquaintance's work.  Miriam spotted him there and would begin following him. Miriam followed him to find out his address, and began going around to the neighbours in the guise of doing polls. She clearly was frustrated because authorities were absolutely refusing to help her in any way; but there was one federal a

  Miriam had courageously taken on the Mexican cartel, in the name of justice for her daughter; but at what cost??? In March 2017, twenty-nine gang members had dug a tunnel and escaped the prison they were in. Upon learning of their escape, Miriam contacted the police and asked them to provide protection for her; which they said they would. Unfortunately for this vigilante mother, this was not enough. On Mother's Day, May 10, 2017, Miriam Elizabeth Rodriguez Martinez was hobbling up her driveway. (She was in a cast because she got a broken foot after chasing down the last young suspect). It happened around 10:20 that night, when a white nissan pulled up to her driveway and shots rang out. Her husband found her lifeless body sprawled in the driveway; her hand was in her purse, where she carried her pistol. Miriam had been shot 13 times, in the back. The cowards murdered her from behind. I think the saddest part of this whole story is that Miriam virtually did all the hunting of thes

  Miriam had resumed her role as a pissed off, grieving mother, who simply wanted justice for the murder of her 20 year old  daughter, Karen. Miriam had the names, and confessions from Sama, and the other gang members; that were interrogated, swirling through her mind, when she realized that people she knew personally were involved in the tragic, violent death of her daughter. It all starts with her neighbour, Elvia Yuliza Betancourt , someone Miriam had helped on several occasions. Miriam began to follow Elvia around, which gave her the information that Elvia was romantically together with one of the Zetas that had taken Karen. Shockingly, Elvia was one of the people who had been making the ransom calls to Miriam and her family!!! (I could not imagine how Miriam felt, nor how she kept her cool upon learning that news. I know I wouldn't have been as "kind" as she was!!!). Subsequently, authorities arrested right outside the very prison that was holding Karen's killers

Hi Everyone. I have a funny feeling most of you crime buffs have at least heard something about this story. Before I jump into it, I am going to say this... Miriam Elizabeth Rodriguez Martinez is my HERO!!! Here we go... There really isn't too much to write about Miriam and her life before tragedy hit her life. Miriam Elizabeth Rodriguez Martinez was born in San Fernando (in the Mexican state of Tamaulipas), on February 5, 1960. All in all, it appeared that she led the average, ordinary life with her son, Luis and daughter, Karen. She had another daughter whose name wasn't publicized; but one day that all changed. January 23, 2014, Karen Alejandra Salinas Rodriguez who was 20 years old at the time, was driving through San Fernando when two trucks drove up on both sides of her vehicle, they were armed; forced their way into her vehicle and took her... These men were member of the Los Zetas cartel (an offshoot of the Gulf cartel). The Zetas were infamous for abductions, only to d

John Eisenman Case ~ Hero Father or Methodical Murderer CONCLUSION

  To conclude this case, we know now that John Eisenman has openly admitted to law enforcement officers that he killed his daughter, Ashley's 19-yr-old boyfriend, Andrew Sorensen because he had sold his underage girlfriend to a sex trafficking ring for $1000.00. John had been arrested and charged with first degree murder, a planned and deliberate act on John's part.  Brenda Kross and John Eisenman had the attention of the nation and world-wide through the internet, when his story spread like wildfire. The heroic father, who rescued his underage daughter from a forced prostitution ring; one that her adult boyfriend sold her to. It was very hard for the Sorensen family to be heard through the loud cries of injustice for the hero dad... The Sorensen family had valid claims that Andrew was not capable of doing such things because of his own physical and mental diabilities.  See, what a lot of people did not know at the time, Andrew had celebral palsy and autism. His family feels th

John Eisenman Case ~ Hero Father or Methodical Murderer Part 2

  What would cause a father with no criminal past, no black marks on his record, whatsoever, commit one of the ultimate crimes (according to society)??? John Brooks Eisenman and Brenda Kross had learned that their juvenile daughter had been abducted and sold to a sex trafficking ring, by none other than her very own boyfriend. John took it upon himself to do the research and invesigating. He found where their daughter was, and he went to rescue her. Ashley was placed in the hospital, but what didn't happen will be detrimental to John's defense when this actually goes to trial!!! A sexual assault kit was sent out, but no one performed it on Ashley when she was found ,so there was no "hard" evidence nor any proof of any actual sex trafficking violence being committed. (I blame the hospital and law enforcement here for their lack of doing their due diligence and collect any evidence at this time). Along with not having any physical evidence from sexual abuse, there was n

  Hello fellow crime buffs. Today, we are going to divulge into the interesting case that has caused a split in society. The story of a father, John Eisenman, who took the law into his own hands, murdering his minor daughterAshley's 19-year-old boyfriend, Andrew Sorensen.  I will get into the how, why, when and the aftermath of his actions in a minute. Some people, a lot of people actually, feel Eisenman is a "hero dad" while others are more skeptical and not so sure Sorensen is the man, Eisenman claims he was; therefore killing him was not justifiable! This is going to get a bit confusing, because as of today's date, John eisenman has not had a trial and has not been convicted; but this case is still very twisted. Let us tell you about it, and you can decide for yourself which tale you believe. I, myself, am not even sure how I would have done things, had I been put in his position... As the story goes, let's first explain that John Eisenman is the fiancee of Bre
