He has published over 105 novels and a number of novellas and collections of short stories, and has sold over 450 million copies of his work, many of which have reached the top of the New York Times bestsellers list. His later work is said to have been inspired by the abuse he suffered during his childhood at the hands of his alcoholic father. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/daniel-lucas66/message

Jennifer Lee Daugherty was born on November 8th, 1979, in Latrobe, Pennsylvania to parents Denise and Richard Daugherty. Jennifer's parents ultimately divorced, with Denise remarrying a man named Bobby Murphy of Mount Pleasant. Jennifer grew up just an hour southeast of Pittsburgh, where her father ultimately relocated. She had two sisters, Joy and Jamie, and a stepbrother named Dave.  Although she never received a specific diagnosis, Jennifer had a developmental disability of some kind. She struggled with social cues and judgment and was frequently targeted by bullies as a child. This same bullying would follow her into adulthood. While at school, she was pushed around by the other girls and would have gum mashed into her hair.  Jennifer would often come home from school in tears. She once told her mother that she sometimes wished she could be, what she referred to as, a normal girl. Jennifer aspired to do the kinds of things that able-bodied people usually take for granted: to live on her own, belong to a community, have a job, get married, and have children.   By all accounts, Jennifer was sweet-natured and trusting; sometimes to a fault.  When others were cruel, Jennifer would reason that they might be having a bad day and would try even harder to be kind to them. She would see the good in people above all else. Even though she was the target of some pretty nasty bullying, Jennifer was also quick to make friends due to her warm demeanor. According to her mother, Denise, “Jennifer was very easy-going. She liked to have fun. She was trusting. She made friends easily. She loved to dance and she loved to sing.” She enjoyed helping to care for her nieces and nephew and loved working on vehicles with her uncle. She hoped that she might be a mechanic like him one day. Jennifer's favorite foods included lasagna and cheesecake. She was a big fan of scary movies, college football, and wrestling.  In 2010 at the age of 30, Jennifer was on her way to achieving some of her aspirations. She very much wanted to live her life independently. For her, this meant moving out of her mother's house. In order to facilitate this, Jennifer partook in living skills classes at a local community center called the West Place Clubhouse in Greensburg. Jennifer would often take the 20-minute bus ride from Mt. Pleasant to Greensburg, where she was training to become a mechanic, like her uncle. She would also make the trip with some regularity for dentist and counseling appointments.  According to their website, Clubhouses provide comprehensive and dynamic opportunities for persons living with severe mental illness to participate in housing, employment, education, and health and wellness initiatives that renew and reconnect them with mainstream society. Members play an active role in their own recovery and that of their peers by working alongside staff to organize and run programs.  Although a grown woman now, she still functioned at the emotional level of a 14-year-old girl. Her eyes still sparkled with a childlike wonder unlike those of her peers who had become hardened by the burdens of adulthood. And although Jennifer's whimsical nature made her a beloved figure in her community, it also made her vulnerable to those who would wish to take advantage of her good-natured spark.  Due to this, Jennifer's mother and sister were particularly protective of her. They wanted to shield her from outside influences that would seek to do her harm, but they also recognized that she was a grown woman who deserved all that adulthood had to offer.  Jennifer had recently told her family that she made a group of new friends at the West Place Clubhouse. Thrilled about the prospect of Jennifer expanding her network and building confidence, she had her family's full support. However, these were exactly the types of people that they were trying to shield her from. The group consisted of Angela Marinucci, Ricky Smyrnes, Amber Meidinger, Melvin Knight, Peggy Miller, and Robert Masters Jr.  Born on January 12th, 1990, Amber Christine Meidinger met Melvin Knight at a homeless shelter in Washington state in January 2010. Melvin was born on October 27th, 1989 to a drug-addicted father who was imprisoned during the early years of his life. Melvin desperately wanted to be different from his father. Sadly, he developed lifelong learning and social problems after he fell out of a moving vehicle and hit his head at the age of 5. Amber and Melvin soon became a couple and decided to leave the state of Washington for a shot at a better life. The two moved to several different locations before settling in Greensburg, Pennsylvania.  Amber and Melvin met up with Ricky on February 8, 2010. At the time, Amber was pregnant with Melvin's child, and the couple had been staying at a Greensburg-area hotel. Melvin and Ricky were already familiar with one another from a stint in jail. It should be noted that some publications claim that Amber and Ricky met in jail, but there are no sources confirming this. Even though the three didn't really know each other that well, Ricky offered Amber and Melvin a place to stay at his apartment located at 428 North Pennsylvania Avenue in Greensburg. On March 6th, 1986, Ricky Ven Edward Smyrnes was born to a drug-addicted Philadelphia sex worker and a Pittsburgh gang member. It's also been stated in other publications that Ricky was actually the sex worker and gang member, but there are no sources confirming this either. Abandoned at birth, he was moved in and out of foster homes as a child and was treated for mental health disorders as early as age 4. He suffered harm and neglect until he was taken in by the Smyrnes family in North Huntingdon at age 10.  Ricky suffered sexual assault and physical harm from his adoptive father and his uncle. He had tried alcohol and an array of drugs by the age of 6. Ricky had been diagnosed with PTSD at the age of 8 and had undergone 103 therapy sessions by age 10. In addition, he was diagnosed as having as many as seven different personalities, and 15 total psychiatric issues. Ricky's criminal history started off pretty early. In 1997, at the age of 11, he burglarized his neighbor's home and stole knives, guitars, coins, bullets, and cash. That same year, he sexually assaulted a woman in her basement. Also staying at Ricky's North Pennsylvania Avenue apartment was 17-year-old Angela Lynn Marinucci. Born July 14th, 1992, Angela was Ricky's teenage girlfriend who had some challenges of her own. Angela suffered a head injury when she was hit by a truck in 2008, at the age of 15. The injury substantially altered her behavior and pushed her into a downward spiral. People who've experienced brain injury may experience changes in behavior and emotional state. These may include among others: Difficulties with self-control, risky behavior, verbal or physical outbursts, lack of empathy for others, and anger - among others. For Angela, being a teenager with a TBI proved to be an explosive combination.  Angela was the first member of the group to befriend Jennifer. The two met at the West Place Clubhouse and became fast friends. Despite their difference in age and polar opposite personalities, Jennifer and Angela would talk on the phone for hours. Through Angela, she met the rest of the friend group. Jennifer increasingly spent more time in Greensburg with her new friends and felt like she had found kindred spirits. They were all struggling with their own hardships, and in Jennifer's opinion, were still able to make their way in the world. Also living in Ricky Smyrne's apartment were Peggy Darlene Miller, born February 2nd, 1983, and Robert Loren Masters Jr, born December 22nd, 1973. However, Angela began to notice that her boyfriend was taking a special interest in Jennifer, talking to her in a flirtatious manner. She also had allegedly overheard Ricky talking to Jennifer on the phone, proclaiming his love for her. Ricky would later confess that he had loved Jennifer, and she loved him too. Allegedly, Jennifer rode the bus to his apartment to meet with him in secret and carry on an intimate affair while Angela was out. However, Angela had some idea of what was going on and hatched a plan to get back at her friend. After conspiring with others in the group, she invited Jennifer to a sleepover, and Jennifer excitedly agreed. However, fun and games were not what Angela had in mind.  On February 10th, 2010, Jennifer told her parents that she planned on going to her friend's apartment in Greensburg for a sleepover that day. As everyone lived with Ricky, and she wasn't about to tell her parents that she was staying at a guy's place, she claimed it was her friend Peggy's apartment. This also worked out, as she'd be traveling in that direction anyway for a scheduled appointment. Seeing this as another opportunity to assert her independence, her family was all for it.  By the time Jennifer was getting ready to leave, her mother was already at work. So she left a handwritten note with Peggy's contact information in case of emergency, and a thoughtful message that read, I hope that you will have a good day at work, and I also love you very much. Her stepfather, Bobby, dropped her off at the bus stop. Jennifer kissed him on the cheek before saying her final goodbyes. The last message she posted to her MySpace and Twitter accounts was, "This is my time to make a new start for myself, and making new friends and not being afraid of anything."  Upon arriving in Greensburg, she was met by Amber, Melvin, and Ricky. who took her back to their green two-story apartment building just a half mile away. There, she was greeted by the remaining members of the group, Angela, Peggy, and Robert. Almost as soon as Jennifer entered the apartment, things took a horrific turn. It should be noted that many publications have covered Jennifer's story in great detail, with slightly different accounts of what happened over the next 36 hours. With that being said, I don't know if anyone can correctly convey the level of depravity that took place next. Upon entering the apartment, the group began taunting Jennifer, which would have been terribly confusing as these were supposed to be her friends. They rummaged through her purse and took her money, gift cards, and cell phone, after which they ruined it by pouring fluids all over the remaining contents. Then things turned physical. Amber and Angela took turns beating Jennifer with a towel bar, crutches, a 2-liter bottle full of lemonade, and a vacuum cleaner hose. All the while, the helpless woman had no idea why this was happening to her. To add insult to injury, the group held her down and repeatedly stomped on her chest and stomach.  They also forced Jennifer to consume an array of liquids such as vegetable oil, laundry detergent, urine, and nail polish. She was also made to eat feces, which was forced down her throat. These same substances were poured over her head, along with porridge oats and spices. She had begged her friends to stop because she was in pain and her eyes were burning, but the group refused to yield.  Jennifer tried to fight back and managed to punch Amber in the stomach. Amber, as we mentioned earlier, was pregnant at the time. Her earnest attempt at defending herself against her attackers only escalated matters. Jennifer was bound with strings of Christmas lights so that she no longer could fight back. Unable to move, the group humiliated Jennifer further by shaving her head bald and painting her face with nail polish.   If this wasn't already enough, Melvin decided that he needed to take things up a notch by stripping Jennifer of all of her clothing, gagging her, and sexually assaulting her while the others watched and taunted her further. After going through unimaginable suffering, she was told to take a shower because she smelled bad.  When the group grew bored of tormenting Jennifer the following morning, they decided that the only option was to kill her. They couldn't let her go home and run the risk of her reporting what had transpired in Ricky's apartment. The group took a vote on the matter, and all six agreed that Jennifer had to die. As such, they forced the scared woman to write a page-long note that implied that she had decided to take her own life. The note, written in cursive, read:  "I haven't been happy for a while and I also feel like that everybody would be better without me on this earth. I will always love my mom and stepdad no matter what and I will always love the rest of my family also. My nieces and nephew would be lucky to have a better aunt than me. I am done with life. Goodbye. - Jennifer" Jennifer was given sleeping pills and antibiotics, and she begged to be allowed to return home, but it was all for naught. Jennifer was stabbed in the chest and lungs by Melvin Knight. According to Melvin, “Ricky got a knife and told me to stab her…and then I stabbed her in the chest three times.” However, Jennifer managed to survive the attack. Upon noticing this, Ricky allegedly exclaimed, “Dang, this bitch is still alive.” Ricky then grabbed the knife and slit Jennifer's wrist.  Still clinging to life, the men then choked Jennifer with the Christmas lights that she had been bound by. In a final act of depravity, the group decorated Jennifer's dead body to look like a Christmas Tree. Allegedly, Angela became enraged because the lights weren't flashing. As such, she decided that they needed to dump her body. Now, let that sink in for a second. What if the lights had worked? Were they going to keep Jennifer on display in their home for a time? Although that might seem macabre, after all that Jennifer endured, nothing would surprise me.  After removing the lights and stuffing the note in Jennifer's back pocket, the group, who would soon become known as The Greensburg Six, stuffed her body inside of a trash can. It was left under a truck in the snow-covered parking lot of Greensburg Salem Middle School located just a block away. A truck driver noticed the trash can in the parking lot while driving and decided to investigate further. In doing so, he discovered Jennifer's body inside. Although it is a tragedy for anyone to come across such a horrific scene, the silver lining is that an adult managed to find Jennifer rather than a child on their way to school. It wasn't long before police realized who had committed such heinous acts upon Jennifer. All were arrested and quickly began to talk. Jennifer's mother had to identify her body.  At the start of the trial on November 3, 2010, the prosecution sought the death penalty for Ricky, Melvin, and Amber. As Angela was 17 years old at the time, she was ineligible. At trial, forensic pathologist and former Allegheny County Coroner Cyril H. Wecht, who conducted and reviewed thousands of autopsies of homicide victims, stated, "...This is one of the most horrific cases I have seen... You have one young, defenseless woman, six people who are keeping her captive and doing all of these things, knowing she is mentally challenged. Put it all together, it is bizarre, it is extreme barbarism." On April 12th, 2012, Melvin Knight pleaded guilty to first and second-degree homicide, kidnapping, and conspiracy to commit homicide and kidnapping. It was also reported that upon hearing his confession tape being played in the courtroom, he laughed out loud. On August 30th of the same year, a jury deliberated for several hours, before voting to put Melvin to death. In September of 2014, Melvin appealed his sentence. His trial was delayed several times, and his sentence was upheld in March 2019. In November of 2020, he attempted to appeal his sentence via the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania. The appeal included statements and claims that jurors acted with passion and prejudice and arbitrarily imposed the death penalty. However, it was unanimously rejected by the judges.  According to Chief Justice Debra Todd, "Following our thorough review of the record, in this case, we conclude that the appellant's sentence of death was not the product of passion, prejudice, or any other arbitrary factor, but rather was fully supported by the evidence that Knight and his co-defendants held the intellectually disabled victim against her will for several days, during which time they continuously subjected her to myriad forms of physical and emotional torture, eventually stabbing her in the chest, slicing her throat and strangling her." On February 28, 2013, Ricky Smyrnes was sentenced to death. He appealed his sentence, but in February of 2017, it was upheld. His execution was delayed in July 2017. It is unlikely that either Melvin nor Ricky will ever meet the gurney and needle. An execution has not been carried out in Pennsylvania since 1999 - and that was of serial killer Gary Heidnick. As we shared with you in our Darisabel Baez case, only 3 executions have been carried out since 1976 due to a moratorium put in place in 2015. As we also noted previously, this does not stop death sentences from being issued even today. Both men are currently being held in the State Correctional Institution - Phoenix.  On December 4, 2013, Amber Christine Meidinger was sentenced to 40 to 80 years in prison after pleading guilty to third-degree homicide, kidnapping, and conspiracy. While awaiting trial, she gave birth to her baby, who was placed in foster care. She almost received the death penalty until she agreed to testify against the others. In November of 2019, Amber filed paperwork with the state's Board of Pardons, seeking early termination of her prison sentence. She is currently being held in the State Correctional Institution - Muncy.  The police did not accuse Robert Masters and Peggy Miller of participating in the entire act of torture and killing of Jennifer. However, the evidence from confessional tapes suggests that they were part of the meetings in which the whole ordeal was planned. They had also voted for Jennifer to be killed.  In addition, it was alleged that Robert and Peggy had been left alone with Jennifer while the other four left the apartment for a while. Robert claimed that he helped retrieve her clothes that Melvin and Ricky had stripped from her and tossed out a window on the first day of the beatings. During this time, Jennifer begged them to let her go, or to call for help. But they didn‘t, and their inaction directly led to her death.  Their lawyers attempted to argue that they were scared of the others and feared that they too would be killed. The couple made tearful pleas for leniency, with Robert stating, “I was scared for my life. I should have done something, but I didn't because I was scared. Can the family forgive me?” and Peggy stating, “I am sorry and I am guilty. She was my friend, and I should not have voted for her to die.” Jennifer's family blamed Peggy heavily, claiming that Jennifer told them she was going to spend the night with her and her friends in Greensburg. Jennifer's family requested that both Peggy and Robert receive lengthy sentences. Jennifer's stepfather, Bobby Murphy made an emotional request, “The same way they chose not to show compassion to Jennifer, I ask you not to show compassion to them.” Jennifer's sister Joy Burkholder, has pointed words directed at Peggy, “You had my sister as a friend. She loved Miller and valued her. You didn't value her, you probably value a hairbrush more than you value her.” Robert Loren Masters Jr, the eldest of the group, pleaded guilty to third-degree homicide, conspiracy to commit homicide, and conspiracy to commit kidnapping on December 19, 2013. He was sentenced to 30 to 70 years in prison. His attorney, William Gallishen, helped him reach a plea bargain against the other five. After he agreed, Robert was moved to another jail for protection. He did not publicly share any information related to the plea bargain. He is currently being held in the State Correctional Institution - Greene. Peggy Darlene Miller was sentenced to 35 to 74 years in prison. She is currently being held in the State Correctional Institution - Muncy.  Several neighbors and fellow inmates testified against Angela, claiming that she had planned to kill Jennifer several days before her body was discovered. Neighbor Anthony Zappone heard Angela say, "I'm going to kill that bitch.” Tina Warrick testified that Angela told her that she was disappointed with the type of Christmas decorations that Peggy had purchased to tie Jennifer up with. Floria Headen heard body slamming and screaming. Felisha Hardison, who was a cellmate and friend to Angela, testified that she was jumping on her bed, excited to be on the news.  On August 3rd, 2011, Angela Marinucci, the youngest of the group, was formally given a mandatory life sentence without the possibility of parole after being found guilty in May of first-degree homicide. She later had her life without the possibility of parole sentence revoked. However, on July 1st, 2015, a jury decided to re-sentence her to her previous sentence. Finally, in May of 2022, Angela was resentenced to 60 years to life in prison with parole eligibility in 2070. She is currently being held in the State Correctional Institution - Cambridge Springs.  Jennifer's sister, Joy Burkholder said after the sentencing, “My biggest regret was forcing Jennifer to act as an adult, I would go back and do many things differently.” She also noted that “Jennifer was exploited, and her kindness and her handicap made her very vulnerable.” Outside of court, Bobby, Jennifer's stepfather, said: “Closure is Jennifer coming back to us, and Jennifer won't come back, so there is no closure…” According to Jennifer's parents, whatever happened to her could not be justified in any way, she did not have a single mean bone in her body. Jennifer's memorial services were held at Kepple-Graft Funeral Home located at 524 N. Main Street in Greensburg. Sadly, the funeral home was located just around the block from where Jennifer met her fate. Jennifer's family requested no flowers. Instead, memorial contributions could be made to one's favorite charity. On April 23, 2012, at a conference, Pennsylvania State Senator Kim Ward proposed legislation named Jennifer's Law. The legislation would require the reporting of violent crimes to law enforcement officials immediately.  Failure to report the crime would be a misdemeanor of the third degree.  The individual would not be required to immediately report it if it would place the person in immediate physical harm.  Jennifer's family was on hand as the legislation was announced. Her sister Joy shared this emotional statement, “Over the course of 30-plus hours, six people had the opportunity to help my sister and nobody did. Legally they didn't have to. It seems wrong to me that you can be a spectator during a murder and not be responsible to intervene in any way. I know my sister is not coming back and we accept this. However, this law could and will save lives.” According to Senator Ward, “It is heartbreaking to think of what Jennifer went through, and the fact that one phone call to police might have put an end to these cruel crimes. Sometimes society has to compel people to do the right thing. This legislation is aimed at preventing further tragedies.”  She went on to state, “Since 1973, 11 states have enacted statutes requiring some form of aid or assistance when witnessing a violent crime. By making Pennsylvania the 12th state, we can make a statement in Jennifer's memory. We can say, ‘The world may be cold, but we do not live in a heartless society. We do not look on while evil is perpetrated. We are better than that.”  Support Our Patreon For More Unreleased Content: https://www.patreon.com/themiserymachine PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/themiserymachine Join Our Facebook Group to Request a Topic: https://t.co/DeSZIIMgXs?amp=1 Instagram: miserymachinepodcast Twitter: misery_podcast Discord: https://discord.gg/kCCzjZM #themiserymachine #podcast #truecrime Source Material: https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/traumatic-brain-injury/symptoms-causes/syc-20378557 https://disabilitymemorial.tumblr.com/post/131876335512/jennifer-daugherty https://www.kepplegraft.com/obituary/Jennifer-Daugherty https://www.facebook.com/groups/349449062753 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_Jennifer_Daugherty https://medium.com/lessons-from-history/the-chilling-story-of-a-mentally-disabled-woman-who-was-murdered-by-her-friends-caef336cac5f https://morbidology.com/jennifer-daugherty-the-greensburg-six/ https://www.buggedspace.com/jennifer-daugherty-killed-by-friends/ https://archive.triblive.com/local/westmoreland/roommate-gives-jurors-gruesome-details-of-2010-torture-murder-in-greensburg/ https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/48112799/jennifer-lee-daugherty https://www.wtae.com/article/death-penalty-trial-continues-in-greensburg-6-case/7459767 https://www.wtae.com/article/greensburg-6-co-defendant-testifies-in-death-penalty-case-tells-jurors-victim-just-wanted-love-1/7459816 https://triblive.com/local/westmoreland/greensburg-woman-resentenced-for-2010-torture-killing-of-mentally-disabled-victim/ https://www.wtae.com/article/greensburg-6-case-ends-as-final-suspects-plead-guilty-in-woman-s-death/7464268 https://www.cbsnews.com/pittsburgh/news/angela-marinucci-resentenced-for-her-role-in-jennifer-daughertys-death-in-2010/ http://inmatelocator.cor.pa.gov/#/ https://www.senatorward.com/2010/06/21/ward-unveils-jennifers-law-in-wake-of-westmoreland-county-murder/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3hqWI-upZDk&ab_channel=thisisMONSTERS https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cHyx__RpQ28&t=28s&ab_channel=Disturban https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AY6GspYoTfo&ab_channel=TheLittleShopofCrime https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vrq-GqOQ9m0&ab_channel=WTAE-TVPittsburgh https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2pznigZG-GU&ab_channel=WTAE-TVPittsburgh https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wIQtvkQbr_o&ab_channel=WTAE-TVPittsburgh https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yg3sVikDSGU&ab_channel=WTAE-TVPittsburgh https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7gLndtKzyQ0&ab_channel=WTAE-TVPittsburgh https://www.ojp.gov/ncjrs/virtual-library/abstracts/coed-prisons-survey-finds-35-prisons-house-both-men-and-women https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1484578384 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Od8k9dpFuDE&ab_channel=WTAE-TVPittsburgh

Born July 16, 1731, Samuel Huntington was a signer of both the Declaration of Independence and the Articles of Confederation. He was also President of the 2nd Continental Congress when the Articles went into effect in March 1781. Since this was the first constitution for the United States, did this make Huntington the real First President? Some historians think so, but there's a strong case against it too. The post The Other “First” President: Samuel Huntington first appeared on Tenth Amendment Center.

While Billy Parker was a mainstay on country radio, his claim to fame was as an influential disc jockey, not as a performer. Ironically, for all of the Top 40 hits he spun over the course of his decades on the air, not one of them was his own. Born July 19, 1939, in Tuskegee, OK, he began playing guitar as a child and by the age of 14 had made his professional debut on the Tulsa radio program Big Red Jamboree. A few years later, he began performing in clubs and in 1959 landed his first job as a DJ.By 1963, Billy was the regular daytime disc jockey on Wichita, Kansas’ KFDI and also hosted a Tulsa television program. In the same year, he cut his first single, “The Line Between Love and Hate,” and was named “Mr. DJ U.S.A.” in a nationwide poll, which helped land him at Nashville’s WSM. After releasing another record, “I’m Drinking All the Time,” in 1966, Parker began playing with Ernest Tubbs Troubadours in 1968 and stayed with the group for three years, until he joined Tulsa’s KVOO.Billy was named Disc Jockey of the Year by the Academy of Country & Western Music in 1975; he won the award again in 1977, 1978, and 1984.In 1976, he scored his first chart hit with “It’s Bad When You’re Caught (With the Goods),” from the album Average Man.

Born July 29, 1978 in Harlem NYC this charismatic brother does not know the meaning of limitations. When at the age of 10, his Grandmother told him that he was destined to be something special when watching him mimic moves and sing songs from the King of Pop, Michael Jackson”. In 1991, at the age of 13, he started a group named B.U.C. (Brothers Under Cover). This idea came from watching “Another Bad Creation”, a young R&B/Hip-Hop group at the time. Ty fortunately had a close friend that had his own studio named Oscar Richardson (aka King) who managed and worked with the legendary Manhattans and Intruders. That same day, they were in the studio recording. At this time he took interest in song writing and producing. Things with the first group did not work out, so in 1992 he started another group named S.M.G. (So Much to Give). With this group, he had his first performance in his High School Talent Show performing Jodeci’s “Cry 4 U”. The crowd went crazy and it was at that point in time Ty knew that he wanted music to be a part of his life. S.M.G. came close to signing with “Sean Combs” and the Bad Boy Family, but 112 beat them to the table. Shortly after that the group separated. Ty decided to start his own company named “Harlem Music Group”. With doing this, he’s hoping to contribute good music to today’s culture. He has already done ghost work with some of the industry’s top artists and producers. With thatbeing said, The Man, he doesn’t want to be…but a star…he is. https://linktr.ee/Tytheartist

See you there! We didn't get the ad read in time for the show today, but we are happy to welcome Honeybook as a sponsor! At A Southern Soiree, we’ve been using Honeybook since February 2015. I think we were one of their very first clients, and it has truly been a life changer. They make proposals and contracts super easy to use on both our side and the client side. I think before Honeybook I would send proposals and contracts by email, and the client would have to mail the contract to us or fax it by efax. Proposals were in no way streamlined either, so this has made our lives so much better. As a consultant, whenever I sign up a vendor client, one of the very first recommendations I make is Honeybook. No need to complicate things – it works, it’s great…just get it. And if you follow this link, you get 50% off your first year of Honeybook, which is nice, but not nearly as nice as all the time you’re going to save.

Catherine Callbeck becomes Canada’s first woman elected premier of a province. Catherine Callbeck spent her life alternating between her love of business and her penchant for politics. Born July 25, 1939 in Central Bedeque, Prince Edward Island, she earned bachelors of commerce and education and did post-graduate work in business administration before teaching business in New Brunswick and Ontario. She then returned to PEI to join the family business until her interest in politics landed her in the provincial legislature in 1974 as a Liberal MLA and member of the cabinet. Another stint with the family business was interrupted twice by political stints: in Ottawa as a Liberal MP and then, in January 1993, a return to provincial politics. When the Liberal Party of PEI chose her as leader, she immediately assumed the position of premier, later becoming the first woman elected premier when she and her party won the general PEI election by a landslide (they captured all but one seat) on March 29, 1993. After three and a half years as premier, she returned to the family business, only to be coaxed back to politics in 1997 when appointed to the Senate of Canada. Among Callbeck’s many distinctions is an honorary doctorate of laws from New Brunswick’s Mount Allison University. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Nancy Cruzan dies after a long legal battle for the right to die. On January 11, 1983, Nancy Cruzan, aged 25, was thrown from her car in a collision. When paramedics found her, she had stopped breathing for 15 minutes, yet they were able to revive her breathing but not her consciousness. After five years of watching over their unconscious daughter, Joyce and Lester Cruzan wanted Nancy’s feeding tube removed so that she could die a natural death. That meant wading into the legal and moral issue of a person’s right to die. The family’s long legal battle was with the state of Missouri, which argued that its interest in preserving life was worth more than the family’s desire to remove treatment. In 1990, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled against the interests of the Cruzans in a five-to-four decision, stating there was no “clear and convincing evidence” to prove that Nancy would have wanted the tube feeding stopped. Less than six months later, the Cruzans presented Judge Charles Teel Jr. the “clear and convincing” evidence he required, and he ruled that Nancy’s feeding tubes could be withdrawn. On December 26, 1990, she died. Her grave marker has three dates on it: “Born July 20, 1957. Departed January 11, 1983. At Peace December 26, 1990.” See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Born July 5,1893 in Colon, Panama, as 1st-born to Emma Blake & John Brouwer, Mrs. Maud Virginia Brouwer Proudfoot came to the Virgin Islands as a very young child. Married March 3, 1918 to Leslie Proudfoot, Mrs. Proudfoot started her career of public service in the 1920's with the American Red Cross, where she began her life of social work. Appointed by Gov. Paul M. Pearson July 1, 1933 as the first and only social worker in the newly established Dept. of Social Welfare, where she served in various capacities until she retired in 1963. For more than 60 years and for as long as she was able, Mrs. Proudfoot devoted her personal and professional life to those in need. Even though she considered herself a humble servant of the needy, her untiring commitment to the betterment of her fellow man resulted in an outstanding life's work. Most important to her were the times she could spend encouraging and supporting the elderly and the shut-ins; arranging a dignified burial for those who died without family or loved ones; reading and writing letters for the illiterate; accompanying patients to the Cancer Clinic in Puerto Rico; and lending an empathetic ear to those in need of counseling. Her life has been a testimony to her personal credo: “He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.” ~ Micah 6:8 (The New International Version)
