My hubby and I were out running errands
and conducting business today, when someone approached me, and left this letter
next to me, while waiting at a local Dunkin Donuts. I read it when I got home,
and not surprisingly, it had to do with the recent conviction of pedophile Walter Meyerle. Apparently, someone felt the need
to get the response of one of the families this man made life a nightmare for,
and even more not surprisingly, the family in question was the one(s) from none
other than Bensalem! After I read it, my blood was boiling, and once I went to
the Lord on this and calmed down, I had to share with all of you.
A detective lets three sexual assault
cases sit on her desk for over 3 years. While she was taking frequent breaks
both inside and outside the police station a predator preyed on innocent
children!
While she was observed frequently
chatting with her co-workers the predator who she was failing to investigate
was luring yet another innocent child into a life of depression and anxiety.
These are the kind of physical and emotional injuries that the victims and
their families will take years to recover from if ever.
While she sat behind her desk with
these cases stacked in front of her, that predator devastated the lives of more
families with his attacks. This animal moved on to surrounding communities to
continue his evil ways.
Meanwhile, the victims and their
families waited for justice. Waited for this detective to think it was
important enough to investigate this animal and get him off the street.
All the while, where was her
supervisor who should have been checking the status of her cases? He was doing
anything but police work
The detective was disciplined
according to the Director of Public Safety. Is she still a detective? Is she
still collecting her $90,000.00 PLUS SALARY EACH YEAR? Is her supervisor being
disciplined?
A Philadelphia Police Lieutenant was
fired for striking a woman in the street!
This detective left three victims sit
without justice for over three years, allowed the predator to continue
attacking innocent children and ruining the lives of more families while she
walked around the police station talking with her co-workers and standing
outside.
Thank God for the detective from
Bristol Township who not only investigated and prosecuted this animal, found
the Bensalem cases and brought those cases to light, we believe he prevented
what could have been an ever increasing amount of violence from this animal.
All we have to do is look across the
river to New Jersey and see what happens when these animals are left to roam
free.
It is bad enough the victims and
their families suffered through the predators attacks. They had to wait years
to start the process of feeling safe again. The lack of action by this
detective increased the injuries to the victims and their families.
We thank God for the detective from
Bristol Township who not only investigated the case in Bristol Township, but
followed the evidence to the other victims in Bensalem. His commitment to
keeping this animal off the street gave the victims in Bensalem much delayed
justice and peace.
Well done Bristol Township. This is
just another dark page in the recent history of the Bensalem Police.
We, the friends of the victims are
letting you know detective that your lack of action has caused more pain and
made the victims and their families feeling like they were victimized by you!
Happy with this Detective Cannon??
Are you proud of yourself?? How about the supervisor, (Sargent Annisman I believe?),
who should have been monitoring your cases more closely? There is supposed to
be a procedure that is followed when it comes to this, but of course since you
have no certification, it gives you an "excuse" to not only not follow it, but
to not do your jobs with ANY case properly. Of course the chief offender in all
of this is YOU Haman!! After all, the
detective's supervisor answers ultimately to you, and given your "wonderful
attitude" towards women, we get the results given to this horrible situation.
To the families this evil man
affected, I say this: I could NEVER hope to know what you have been through,
but know that I would NEVER wish this on anyone, and that what you young girls
went through was the host heinous and despicable thing that anyone could ever
go through, and I want to let you know how much my heart breaks for you and that I feel your pain. Just know that healing
IS possible, and that you bringing Meyerle to justice is the biggest dose of
this healing you could ever have. If you are still in therapy, please keep at
it, and know that there are people who care about you, and pray for you. I want to leave you with something that I pray
will help you in your healing process, something that means a great deal to me,
and it's the words of a song by Amy Grant, entitled "Ask Me"
Ask Me: By Amy
Grant and Tom Hemby
I see her as a little
girl hiding in her roomShe takes another bath and she sprays her momma's perfume
To try to wipe away the scent he left behind
But it haunts her mind.
You see she's his little rag, nothing more than just a waif
And he's mopping up his need, she is tired and afraid
Maybe she'll find a way through these awful years to disappear.
Ask me if I think there's a God up in the heaven
Where did He go in the middle of her shame?
Ask me if I think there's a God up in the heavens
I see no mercy and no one down here's naming names
Nobody's naming names.
Now she's looking in the mirror at a lovely woman face
No more frightened little girl, like she's gone without a trace
Still she leaves the light burning in the hall
It's hard to sleep at all.
Still she crawls up in her bed acting quiet as a mouse
Deep inside she's listening for a creaking in the house
But no one's left to harm her, she's finally safe and sound
There's a peace she's found.
Ask her how she knows there's a God up in the heaven
Where did He go in the middle of her shame?
Ask her how she knows there's a God up in the heavens
She said His mercy is bringing her life again.
Ask me how I know there's a God up in the heaven
(How do you know?)
Where did He go in the middle of her shame
(Where did He go?)
Ask me how I know there's a God up in the heavens
(How do you know?)
She said his mercy is bringing her life again
She's coming to life again.
He's in the middle of her pain
In the middle of her shame
Mercy brings life
He's in the middle
Mercy in the middle.
So ask me how I know
Ask me how I know, yeah
Ask me how I know there's a God up in the heaven
(How do you know?)
Ask me how I know there's a God up in the heavens
(How do you know?)
Yeah, ask me how I know
(How do you know?)
Ask me
Ask me
Ask me how I know
(How do you know?)
There's a God up in the heavens
Ask me how I know there's a God up in the heavens
What's really sad is that Detective Cannon was a Victim's Advocate with the Philadelphia DA's office prior to being hired by Bensalem Police. A victim's advocate, I can only imagine what an asset she was to them.
ReplyDeleteYou have got to be kidding me! Some Victim's Advocate she is.
ReplyDeleteWhat really amazes me, is that she wasn't fired for this!! I guess it pays to have connections.
