Revisiting a Post from August 01, 2015.

Simple. Getting practical materials into libraries of all kinds for survivors/victims of various kinds of crimes. Facebook, apps, Twitter, and many other tools also now offer access to this kind of information along with TOTV. Check on the Support Groups section under my posts and you should find a lot about it.

I have been interested in this since my remedial English teacher's daughter Michelle Mitchell was murdered probably by Rodney Halbower in Reno, Nevada on my birthday of 2-24 in 1976. There were a lot of mistakes made by various parties in the Michelle Mitchell murder investigation. Halbower as the prime suspect only emerged in the past year or so. There was a false confession by a mentally ill woman that also messed up the solution to this mystery. Only On 7: Gypsy Hill' murder suspect says he wants answers in jailhouse interview | abc7news.com Cathy Woods exonerated in the murder of Michelle Mitchell - My News 4 - KRNV, Reno, NV

More checks-and- balances in place could prevent emotion from taking over as it did in the Michelle Mitchell investigation. I had been pushing for students at Earl Wooster High School to step back and go into libraries and try to get some perspective on stuff back then. Earl Wooster High School is where Mrs. Barbara Mitchell taught us students. I received a small scholarship in Michelle Mitchell's name back in 1976-1977 after meeting the Mitchell family in the Spring of 1976.

613 is the number I had in a 17 week study on stress on the unemployed at the University of California San Francisco Health Sciences Campus in 1992-1993 under interviewer Myra Young. I had pushed the issue of access to these materials based upon my real life experiences with the Michelle Mitchell investigation as the WESTLAW cataloger at the University of Minnesota Law Library and basically had my mental health put into question. I fought back with what resources I had (mainly writing letters to Congressmen, Governors, State Attorney Generals) and was kicked out of law librarianship for making something personal to me a professional problem of many other law librarians. My law school experiences, however, of a practical nature were helping prisoners at Minnesota Correctional Facility-Stillwater in Legal Assistance to Minnesota Prisoners (LAMP). I was a student and then Student Director so I had no problem being objective about the legal system. I got a JD from the University of Minnesota in 1989 to go along with my MA in Librarianship and Information Management from the University of Denver Graduate School of Librarianship and Information Management (Class of 1984) and two BAs in Philosophy and History (1980, 1981 University of Nevada, Reno).

Since this gave me an incredible amount of spare time, I tried to get everyone I could think of involved with spotlighting this problem of access to practical information for survivors/victims of crimes including NFL commissioners, Hollywood leaders, the White House, celebrities in every walk of life, etc.

This is summarizing 39 years of my life but I hope this gets some more interest. Technology creates new kinds of victims from new kinds of crimes so we do have to adopt resources available to victims/survivors accessible through many resources. I noted that the Law Library of Congress has a lot of resources now for legal research through the web. I have been trying to push these on Facebook among other resources now available via the Internet. Guide to Law Online: U.S. Florida | Law Library of Congress

Still as some people still like to use hard copy to get access to practical information I still think it is important to put pressure on law libraries to remain accessible to lay people. It seems like there is a movement to close law libraries in law schools to people outside of the university community. That makes some sense given the increasing violence in schools and the like but this should be balanced with the need for legal information from people who are not adept at the Internet and using just resources as those of the Law Library of Congress.

I have added pushing for more education on mental health as well now also accessible through libraries. This could be through links and the like. I did note a group at the Marion County Sheriff's Office, for instance, that deals with crisis management. Crisis Intervention Specialists | Marion County Sheriff A link to groups like that from local community libraries would be quite valuable along with information from groups like the National Alliance on Mental Illness. Home | NAMI: National Alliance on Mental Illness

If you want to help with this 224 613 Project call or contact your local community public library and see what kind of practical materials they have available for survivors/victims of crimes as well as getting in preventive measures for helping people with some kind of mental illness. I do not just mean Lake, Sumter and Marion County Libraries and Sheriff's Offices but those from wherever you came from. I do look at the library sites as well as the Sheriff's Offices sites for the many places I have lived at over the past 56 years. The Washoe County Sheriff's Office (Reno and Carson City and other areas in Northern Nevada) has a lot of useful information available for the citizens there. Washoe County Sheriff's Office - Northern Nevada's Full Service Law Enforcement Agency They may be many other Law Enforcement web-sites that other Sheriff's Offices should be looking at for good ideas.

Thanks for asking.

What's in your library?

This thread does not belong in the political forum. Please quit playing on your parent's computer, Tal. You have become a TROLL that begs for attention. Grow up.

Thank you for saying something. There is something mentally different about this guy or gal. Can he not discuss current events?

The mods need to do something about Tal before it starts to affect their bottom line.

Do not tell me. Kind of like the cemetery worker job opening that one of these creep's pointed out?

Maybe that my parents hate me and cannot wait to get me out of the house another refrain used by these creeps.

Or the movie reviews that affald would put on the Regular Forum that got him scolded by the Moderator but this person is still on here posting.

Thanks. I have affald on my Ignore List for a reason. Because I no longer care what this man posts. I would like to see him prosecuted to the full extent of the law though for CRIMINAL HARASSMENT and would be quite happy to file CRIMINAL charges against this person. I do not know this man's name, address, phone number nor County which would be needed to file a police report.

Tal, why did you post this thread. Just curious, I don’t see any relevance to anything.

I'd have to go back and look.

Because that was on the Regular Forum of Talk of the Villages and not the Political Forum.

I bet they feel punished, first losing your brother (I assume he was not a bust out loser like you), and then being stuck with a wackadoodle for eternity...

I would hide the toaster before showering!
