    Karyn Adele Galila

    Someone send in a picture of Karyn Adele Galila. Please.

    We here at People You’ll See In Hell hate rape victims, after all.

    Can’t stand ‘em.

    24-year-old Karyn Galila, a dental assistant, was driving around in her gray Jeep Liberty on the 12th of June, 2007 at about nine at night when, predictably, it broke down.

    As Karyn Galila was sitting in her car, a Latino man and some of his friends pulled over behind her and approached her door. They insisted on helping Karyn and did so by pushing her Jeep off the main street and onto a cross street.

    According to Karyn Galila, she didn’t get a really good look at the one guy’s friends, but she did have a few moments to cement “Eddie” as his friends called him, into her memory when he pulled a black semi-automatic gun at her and told her to do what he said. “Eddie” was between 20 and 25 years old, thin with short, dark, spiked hair. “Eddie” had a scar on his left eyebrow.

    And “Eddie” was feeling a little rapey.

    Once “Eddie” had gotten Karyn Galila’s attention with the firearm pointed at her nose, the other men moved her car to a different parking lot where “Eddie” raped her.

    “Eddie” finished and drove off with his unknown number of friends.

    Ha! Just kidding!

    Yeah, Karyn Galila was never raped. She just made up that story to explain to her cuckolded husband why she was late. After all, Karyn couldn’t tell her husband that she had just met 25-year-old Robert Salapuddin, who she had been chatting with online, at a local restaurant – and that after eating dinner, Karyn Galila did some eating of her own in her Jeep Liberty.

    Police launched an investigation, because Latino gangs who go around raping young dental assistants while their Jeeps are broken down on the side of the road must be stopped!

    After going through the Jeep Liberty with a fine-toothed comb, police found Robert Salapuddin’s fingerprint on the interior, which led to his arrest for outstanding warrants on felony forgery and misdemeanor embezzlement charges. Police initially thought that Robert Salapuddin was one of the Latinos who raped Karyn Galila, but because Robert produced the receipt for the meal he had shared with Karyn and when witnesses remembered seeing the two of them together, investigators decided that Karyn might not have been entirely truthful.

    And of course, she hadn’t been. As investigators pointed out several holes in her story, Karyn Galila cried and admitted that she had made up the rape to keep her husband in the dark about her extramarital activities.

    On the 31st of December, 2007, Karyn Galila pled no contest to a misdemeanor count of filing a false police report. In exchange, she agreed to serve 90 days in jail and prosecutors dismissed a second charge that she faced. If Karyn Galila had gone in front of a jury, she possibly could have been sentenced to 180 days in jail.

    At Karyn Galila’s sentencing, her attorney told the judge:

    She at this point is still struggling to figure out why she conducted herself the way she did. She is genuinely sorry for her conduct.

    The prosecutor insisted on jail time, noting that Karyn Galila’s lies could have resulted in an innocent man serving prison time for something that never happened.

    Karyn Galila was also ordered to repay $4,937.79 to the police for the hours required to work on her case, along with expenses related to the investigation, such as towing her vehicle and DNA analysis.

    People You’ll See In Hell is of the opinion that 90 days in jail is a bit light and that people who falsely accuse others of crimes should serve prison time that the falsely accused would have had to serve had they been convicted.

    Nobody really asks us, however.

      I am glad that she has to pay for the expenses that she incurred. We shuld do that with more of the criminals. Maybe some (few) would turn themselves in as to escape the cost of a lengthy investigation.

      Besides – the government seems to take someone owing it money more seriously than rape and murder.

      As far as her sentence goes – while she did lie, she did not accuse a specific person of a crime they did not commit, she was probably hoping that this case would go cold and that would be the end of it.

      So I am ghlad that she got caught, but I feel that if found guilty, criminals also have a debt to the bodies that footed the bill, and this is a good precident to start!

    2. Meaghan says:

      This sort of thing really pisses me off. It’s a terrible insult to real rape victims and, as you point in your article, it could have devastating consequences if an innocent person was incriminated. I don’t know if this is quite hell-worthy, but I would love to give this woman a piece of my mind.

    3. GloryBug says:

      I don’t know what the fuss is all about.

      I always claim rape when there’s foreign sperm lodged in my vagina. It’s a hell of a lot easier than just admitting I’m a whore.

      Plus, then you get the advantage of all the sympathy-fucks.

      That’s pretty rude to suggest that I should have to pay back LE for investigating my fornication cover stories.

      Jeez, why all the hatin’ on us husband-cheaters?

    4. LilMissSunshine says:

      BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO to this “woman” ( i use this word loosely). Not only did she make a joke out of every woman who has been raped and decided to also focus on a certain race of people (anyone remember Tawana Brawley and her BS lie against the ‘white boys’) but it is stupid ass women like this that make it harder for rape convictions to stick, because the system never knows if the victim is lying… gRrRrR…

    5. Kdogg says:

      Since the Duke Lacrosse case, I have reads reports where it more than likely that a rape occured but no DA will press foward with charges? Why? There isn’t evidence, the witness was drunk etc. More women are reluctant to come foward. All the potbangers, femonazis and others that kept lynching the players even when it was clear there had been no rape are as guilty as this woman in pushing back justice for REAL rape victims twenty years.

      • Jason says:

        No Rape occurred in the Duke Lacrosse case.
        Mike Nifong got completely out of control in the case.

        Crystal Mangum was a documented escort(prostitute) and stripper. It was only after she was involuntarily admitted to a substance abuse facility that she began to claim rape charges to avoid the consequences of a detox. She was transferred to Duke University Medical Center, where it is unclear if she received pain killers for her injuries.

        DNA from the rape kit revealed the DNA of multiple men none of whom were Duke Lacrosse players.

    6. DualDenz says:

      didn’t vote her to hell, since nobody actually got cought for the crime that never happened, had someone been sent to jail because of her lies, i would’ve voted yes.

    7. SC says:

      Women like this irk me to no end. They are the reason that most rape victims don’t come forward and real rapists continue to walk free. They’re also the reason that innocent men end up being branded as rapists for the rest of their lives. And, did she really have to target members of an entire ethnic group? Why don’t these women who make up kidnapping, murder and rape stories ever say it was a guy of their own race? (Remember Susan Smith, who pushed her car into the water with her two young boys strapped in? And then she claimed some “black man” kidnapped them?)

      As a victim of rape myself, I am offended by these women who cry “rape!” because they had a one-night stand they now regret or because they wanted to hide their unfaithful behavior. My attacker was never brought to justice and is still on the prowl and a lot of it has to do with these stupid, stupid women who cry false rape bogging down the system.

      She doesn’t deserve hell because no one was directly hurt from the result of her actions. She was caught in her lie before that could happen and is being charged for the resources she wasted. But she does need a long stint in purgatory to think about what she’s done.

    8. GloryBug says:

      I wasn’t aware that ‘Feminazis’ were responsible for the LaCrosse mess. I thought that was kind of started by allegations from exotic dancers.

      I’m a woman, and I also believe that dancers, prostitutes, and even wives can be raped. I think it should be prosecuted whenever possible. That does not make me a Feminazi.

      What is kind of sad is that there really aren’t as many fabricated rapes (the ‘revenge’ accusations, or the ‘covering their shameful sex’ accusations)as people would like to believe, and they are certainly eclipsed 100fold by the rapes that are not reported. It wasn’t that long ago that it wasn’t even considered possible for a husband to rape their wife.

      I am 44, and I know quite a few women (and men) who were molested as children, and yet I know no one who has ever taken that admission to court. Not one person of all the people I’ve known who’ve been molested have resulted in anyone going to court or jail. I also know several people who claim to have been raped, a couple of whom I have no doubt were, as I knew the people involved, or I was in the general vicinity at the time and afterwards. Not one of those people pressed charges or sent anyone to jail for it.

      I doubt I am the only person who could say this. Rape is still so underreported and underprosecuted, that it’s annoying that cunts like this just add fuel to the fire of all the people who want to believe that it’s common for women to ‘cry rape’ any time they have a tiff or fuck someone they shouldn’t have.

      It’s an anomaly, and should be treated as such- not like it’s the norm we all have to be on guard against. I am glad people who are raped/molested are coming forward more often, and glad that dna can nail people that would have gone free years ago.

      I was not there at the LaCrosse event, so I cannot say what happened or did not happen- as in most cases I bet not many people know all the facts there. But what some people overlook is that there were no convictions. Accusations, yes. But not innocent convictions.

      I wish people would be more positive about these cases. More people are reporting assaults, and less people are being convicted who are innocent.

      In this case, it’s been worded a bit misleadingly.

      “After going through the Jeep Liberty with a fine-toothed comb, police found Robert Salapuddin’s fingerprint on the interior, which led to his arrest for outstanding warrants on felony forgery and misdemeanor embezzlement charges.”

      “On the 31st of December, 2007, Karyn Galila pled no contest to a misdemeanor count of filing a false police report. In exchange, she agreed to serve 90 days in jail”.

      “The prosecutor insisted on jail time, noting that Karyn Galila’s lies could have resulted in an innocent man serving prison time for something that never happened.”

      They should change the wording from ‘an innocent man serving prison time for something that never happened’ to ‘a man that was falsely accused of an assault, but who due to the false report was arrested on other charges’. He was innocent of the assault charge, but not the crimes he WAS guilty of. And, she supposedly never accused HIM- so he could never have been the ‘innocently accused”.

      Imaginary innocent men who did not assault her did not get arrested.

      He serves time for the non-innocent things he was already on warrant for, and she spends time for making false accusations against imaginary people.

      To me, that’s a win/win. Also, it kind of discourages married people from fucking around, and discourages people with rap sheets from fucking around with married people.

      Look for the positives, folks!

      Glory, whats going on in your life that you know so many peoplewho have suffered being raped and molested. Maybe your just making it all up to sound better on your very boring and long post.

      • Meaghan says:

        I don’t make really long posts on here, but I know quite a few people who have been molested. And chances are, so do you, since I believe the statistics say it happens to 1 out of every 4 girls, 1 out of every 10 boys, and I don’t know how many adult victims.

      • Barbara Boxer (D) CA. says:

        Penny, please forgive glorybug, she’s a legend in her own mind.

    10. GloryBug says:

      Gee, Penny, maybe you should read up on the stats for child (male and female) molestation, and for rape. It’s pretty easy to google. I’m sure the ’several’ people that I have mentioned here doesn’t even add up to those stats.

      If I was trying to be ‘your’ idea of interesting, I would have claimed on this thread and others that I’ve been raped. But, I have not. Statistically, I’ve been lucky. Other people I’ve known were not. I’ll let them know you think people make up stuff like that just to appear more interesting, cuz god knows you just aren’t interesting if you KNOW people who have suffered being raped- you’ve got to be one of the lucky rapees to claim that distinction. They’ll appreciate your thoughts.
      I am sure you are bright enough to figure out how to skip my posts, if they bore you so. Why you’d waste your precious time posting how bored you are by me, I’ll just have to guess at.

      I tend to skip all the babbly little religious posts that show no intelligence- surely you can do the same for my posts. I don’t recall posting specifically for YOUR viewing pleasure, y’know?

      When you aren’t so religious you scare people off, and when you’re able to communicate with people on a personal level, they tell you things they would not tell judgemental pricks who think you have to ‘have something going on in your life’ in order to know people who’ve been raped or molested, or to be someone who has been raped or molested. You forgot to mention ‘abused’, which I probably bore you in many posts about, also. I happen to have had an abusive childhood. Maybe that makes me less boring to you now?

      WTF? You’ve got problems. Me boring you isn’t likely to be the biggest.

        Glory- my appologies. I think I got a bad first impression of you. I jumped to a conclusion about you that was unfare. I do read your post alot, andthey tend to be a bit long winded at times, however I am sure someone thinks the same as me. We share a lot of the same frustration with todays problems. I dont always agree with you, but what fun is it read post that only have my smae opinion. Please accept my apologie, I will try to be less assuming in the future!

        • penny says:

          Oh yeah, I get your point about people telling their stories and it being able tohelp others. And my above comment was suppose to read ” however I am sure someone else thinks the same about me”

      GloryBug
      While you were not raped or molested as a child, there are 2 things you are missing
      1. Were you inthe sights of a molester who, for whatever reason, did not actually perform “the act?”
      2. Domino affect – given you know people who were molested, did you get any fallout?

      Some molesters, like priests (being my personnel experience) will size up a child or family to see if they can get into the cracks and get some type of control. Though never touched myself (that I remember), he did make me think less of my parents for a very long time. So some damage was done.

      As far as the domino effect goes, having been outside the preist’s grasp, I was not outside his sphere of influence. I wonder how many people chose to bully me on his orders?

      Also in first grade I was grabbed by a teacher from behind – I kicked and punched the teacher repeatedly. Although I forget what I said when asked why I did it, all I know is
      1. My parents were NEVER notified
      2. The teacher never did her routine again
      3. Some time later the school system had a consiler see me a few times a week… but the system put the blame on my father somehow….

      This was all the early 70’s – a world way different than that of today. Information was controlled and people controlled by such. While such still goes on, the internet has changed the “ownership rights” of information dramatically.

      Unfortuantely there will always be people who will take something good and abuse it for their own selfish purposes.

    12. GloryBug says:

      The ‘Real Fred’- you are correct.

      I cannot speak for before I was adopted at age 6. My biomother has been ‘nice’ enough to confirm physical abuse that I remember from her and others, as well as to substantiate molestation that I do not remember.

      After that, all I remember are what I would call ‘aborted’ molestations. I remember being cornered in the church kitchen by two older boys and ordered to pull my dress up and my underwear down, at age 7. I did not comply. Neither did I tell anyone. During my early teens, I was chased around the couch by the pastor’s son who was much older, while my parents drank coffee in the other room with the pastor and his wife. I never told about that, either. My next door neighbor attempted to molest me in high school, which I also did not comply with. I never told anyone about it until after he’d been arrested for molesting girls at my high-school… he was the security at my high school. He died of a brain tumour soon after, and I never saw the point of telling my a-parents bad things about their neighbor’s son, who they were good friends with. My own adoptive brother, who was 21 tried to molest me, and physically assaulted me and threatened to kill me and my cat from 16-17, when I moved out of my a-parents home permanently. At the time, I did tell them of the assaults, the threats, and even the attempted molestation. Once I moved out, it was not a concern to any of them. They are very BAC, and my a-brother knows how to work the BAC forgiveness system. He got back into the church, and therefore, nothing he ever did matters, because God has forgiven him. If I sound a tad saarcastic, it’s because I am.

      Along the way, there were probably other times I could have been molested, but I was just very wary.

      As an adult, after I moved out at 17, I have never been physically or sexually abused or raped. My recent ex was psychologically, emotionally, verbally and financially abusive, but I consider those to be very separate things.
      I was married before, and have had boyfriends, none of whom have ever been abusive towards me. I can’t say whether they have to other people. Once I moved out I made it very clear what I would not tolerate, and haven’t had anyone breach that.

      As far as the abusive/molestive things that happened to me after I was adopted, most of them occurred in the context of school and church, and my a-parents were both teachers and involved heavily in the church. I never reported ANY of the things that happened that were either age-inappropriate, or sexual advances that came from people my own age. Don’t even ask me about the chuch counselor that went on a camping trip with our youth group when I was 14, and humped and masturbated against me in his sleeping bag at night. There really was no room either within the school system or in the church to report these things to. Even as a kid, you knew it wouldn’t just get them in trouble, it would get you in trouble. Like I said, after adoption I was lucky in that other than the physical abuse from my a-brother, none of the molestation attempts on me were successful. I don’t know why. Maybe I’m just naturally bratty and outspoken, which pedophiles don’t like?

      I heard some pretty bad stories about things my brothers who were not adopted out suffered after I was gone. My younger brother committed suicide 5 years ago, and although he never said specifically, only hinted at, I always got the impression he’d been molested by someone when he was little.

      I really think you have a point, in that when we were young, you just didnt tell on people. And, that I think generally molestors, just like any criminal, choose their victims often (if they are cerebral abusers) based on how likely the child is to tell. I have a big mouth. I was probably a big risk. I wasn’t impressed by offers of booze or pot, from my a-brother or anyone from school or church, and I never felt guilty or in any way indebted to those people. Although I was abused as a child, I think somehow I became a lower risk because of it as I got older and more hard-headed.

      But, if, as you suggest, I’d come across some hard-core child rapist at that time- they still probably would have gone free because NOBODY talked about sex with their parents back then, and nobody told.

      I think that has a lot to do with some of the stuff that happened when we were growing up. It confuses me sometimes, because it seems like it’s so much more open and easier to report now…… but I guess it still isn’t. Sad.

      If you get a chance, tell more of your story. No matter how much some people here are bored by it, it is educational, and it DOES help people figure out how to deal with those subjects now. I have an 8 year old and a 10 year old boy, and it would probably burn some people’s ears to hear what we talk about. I’m not ‘educating’ them about things I think are beyond their years (until they inform me differently), but I am definitely making sure they have someone they know 100% they can tell ANYTHING to. And that’s the thing that will ruin it for pedophiles- having kids who have someone to tell ANYTHING to.

      • Julie says:

        Glory- I don’t think your posts are boring, although they are sometimes long, they are well written. :) I agree with your ideas about raising your children in an environment where they are open to talk about anything.

        I grew up in a very strict Catholic home and my mother never even had a sex talk with me. I remember starting my period at 10 yrs. old and not having a clue what the hell was going on. Then my mother took me the a ‘Mother-Daughter Seminar’ at a local school that I guess she thought would explain everything for me about the female reproductive system and the logistics of sex, pregnancy, etc. I guess no one ever talked to her about those things b/c she assumed that just like her I would never have sex before marriage. She forbid me to- and that was the end of it….

        Until at 13 I decided to have sex. with a 17 yr. old. Yeah, I was pretty much the school whore after that. lol. I had no idea of the consequences of my actions, physically and emotionally. Thankfully I didnt get pregnant and since he totally betrayed me I decided having sex again wasnt worth all the BS.

        Many times I wanted to speak to my mother as a friend, a confidant, but she never opened up to me. She had a very authoritative style of parenting and has only recently become ‘my friend’ after the birth of my son.Dont get me wrong she was a great mother, things could of been a lot worse.
        I always felt that I want my children to be able to tell me ANYTHING like you said. I think if more parents were like this than maybe children would be more likely to report abuse, molestation, etc. In this day and age sex is so open and blatant on TV, advertisements, etc. our children cannot help but be exposed to it at an early age. they need to be taught what’s normal and whats unacceptable But thats just my 2 cents.

    13. Kdogg says:

      yes, I’m aware even strippers and hookers can be raped. I simply meant that they kept clinging to the Duke case long after it was clear there had been no rape committed

    14. GloryBug says:

      So your point is what? Plenty of people have continued praising the corpse of BUSH, long after he’s been proven to be dead. Are ‘Feminazis’ to blame for that, too?

      I always have a healthy skepticism for people who NEED to have a ‘codeword’ like ‘feminazi’ for their ‘enemy’. Instead of just not liking assholes in general.

    15. Miwist says:

      She’s a lying, selfish bitch. What she did is so wrong on so many levels. On the surface, nobody got hurt. When you start to peel back the layers, just start with her husband and dig a little deeper in. The way she attacked a race of people, wasted police resources. Sure, maybe she has to pay back money, but there are enough real crimes without making one up. What about the judges time, the prosecuters time. Does she have to pay for the 3 meals a day while in jail.
      What about people in the community afraid, even for a few hours, because they thought a rapist was running loose?

    16. Miwist says:

      Ooops,cut myself off.
      What about minimizing the seriousness of rape and assault.
      Her behavior isn’t cute, it isn’t funny. She’s old enough to know the difference between right and wrong. If she needs to lie to the world about her behavior, maybe she shouldn’t be doing what she’s doing. She needs to pull her head out of her ass and grow the fuck up. She’s needs to quit dragging other people into her pathetic little life.
      She needs to have her slutty bitch ass kicked hard (figure of speech, I don’t condone violence). I don’t vote hell, but I would love to sit down with this tramp and explain to her why we have rules.

    17. GloryBug says:

      Miwist- I agree.
      It would be nice if everyone who filed false claims/charges (especially, IMO parents who claim someone ELSE killed their kid) be financially responsible for LE costs if they are outed. File a false robbery report? Pay all the LE/court costs. It might deter a few of the so many people that seem to like lying to police/courts.

      And Louis- your comment made me laugh. I guess I could always claim I just sat on a dirty toilet seat? I like reading some of the people who get fired up here, but I also really enjoy getting a good laugh now and then. Thanks.

      Why is it “predictable” that a Jeep Liberty would break down? Rather a biased thing to say, is it not? And does such a statement really belong in an article about a woman abusing the system? It just wasn’t necessary.

      admin – Predictable based on service records of Jeep Liberty vehicles. And it was necessary.

    19. G.Wadel says:

      These types of false crimes must give bigger punishments, it really takes away from the real victims.

      Looks like someone used this site

      and conflated the two together.

      admin – Agreed. The picture taken down and a round of finger-waggling ensued. Still looking for a picture.

    22. Penny says:

      Glory-I do realize that the number of people being molested in the world today is very high, and I myself know a few. I don’t broadcast their personal stories over the internet. You are still not any more believable. Lets say for chance you are being truthful, why dont you use your insight to help people, rather than posting on a stupid site all day? For every story we read about you are one of those people who can tell one better. I know your type, lonely, the computer your only companion, your life consisting of constently checking blogs and emails. If your so smart about all of these topics, (and not just copy and pasting facts you’ve searched for on the internet) do something constructive. Help people. This I would think would be the last web sight you’d want to look at all day, if you have seen so much tragedy on a personal level.

      • Jason says:

        Picking at scabs is a common human endeavor. It’s how we tell if we’re still alive and healing, even if it does have both painful and infectious consequences–not to mention the scarring.

        The habit continues when we have full blown scars to pick at, rub and occasionally inspect even further. I came here for the Michael Gagnon story. Now when I make comments, I carefully seed them words that add weight or content, especially ones that deal with alcohol, cars, criminals, and murderers.

        I have a life, a wife, a job, friends and family. I’m fairly certain from Glory’s myspace page, she has a life as well.

        Geez, Penny… angry much?

        “Glory-I do realize that the number of people being molested in the world today is very high, and I myself know a few. I don’t broadcast their personal stories over the internet.”

        Perhaps you should. Preferably without personally naming them, unless they give you permission to.

        “Lets say for chance you are being truthful, why dont you use your insight to help people, rather than posting on a stupid site all day?”

        Probably because I don’t consider this to be a ’stupid site’. And because I think it is helping people when I write about what I have experience with. I like to think once in a while it might educate people who think that abuse should be kept neatly swept under the carpet. I like to think it might encourage someone else to tell their story. I have read, and I respect the personal things that Miwist, Fred, Brittany, Kim… (lordy, I can’t name them all!) have written about, and I’m glad they wrote them.

        ” I know your type, lonely, the computer your only companion, your life consisting of constently checking blogs and emails.”

        Oh? I think you may not be such a good evaluator of people’s lives. I’m not lonely. I would prefer to be having more sex than I am right now, but that’s neither here nor there. I do enjoy the internets. It amazes me sometimes that I have so much information and interesting stories at my fingertips. Since I used to read the dictionary when I was little and was sick, that shouldn’t be surprising. I have certain interests I follow. These include crime, child-abuse, animal issues, vegetarian issues, physics, cooking, art and literature, among many. Just yesterday I found a cool site that gave directions on how to make a solar oven… and inspired me to try my hand at it. Sad to say I didn’t have all the materials needed, and my rice only got half cooked. But last week, my son found a youtube video that showed how to start a fire with a battery and some steel wool. It works. But now I have no steel wool left, and a messy spot in my backyard.
        Overall, I think you worry too much about my fondness for the internets, but I thank you for making the effort.

        “If your so smart about all of these topics, (and not just copy and pasting facts you’ve searched for on the internet) do something constructive. Help people. ”

        I am under the impression that when I post on websites I have an interest in, that I am helping people. Whether it’s posting here or posting a vegetarian recipe on another blog. There are actually a lot of bloggers who help a lot of people using the cut-and-paste method you look down on.

        “This I would think would be the last web sight you’d want to look at all day, if you have seen so much tragedy on a personal level.”

        Oh? Not sure I get that point. Besides, I’ve seen all the LOLcats, KittenWars, and water gardening/ponding sites by the time I get here. Fark and Rense provide amusement as well. I am not the kind of person who needs to use escapism or constant entertaining. I actually enjoy using my brain, and reading about some less than shallow stories. That’s how I’ve learned about FGM, HAARP, whale slaughter, and infectious diseases. I don’t need smiley faces at the end of each day.

        It seems more than likely that you just don’t personally enjoy the fact that I post here. You can bring that up with admin, if it really annoys you that much. It would probably be just too easy for me to suggest that when you see my name, you refrain from reading whatever I’ve blathered on about?

        Jason- I am glad that you continue to keep writing about how drunk driving has affected you. I know someone who has not only driven drunk, but who regularly drove WHILE drinking. I really do believe the stats that say for every time someone gets caught, they’ve driven drunk numerous times before. Not just once.
        I personally have not had my life affected by anyone’s drunk driving, so I’ve appreciated reading about how it’s affected yours. I absolutely understand why you would make an effort to insert key words about it in anything you write. It’s important to you. And, you ARE educating people.

      I have a job but I don’t have much to do so I come here and read all sorts of interesting shit. hahaha. Glory has never bored me although I must admit that most of the time I don’t read her entire post. I just skim over the good parts and it all seems pretty interesting to me. I’m trying to take up for her in a roundabout way. hahahah. I love Glory’s posts. She seems like a very well-adjusted person to me. Of course that could be because I’m not normal as well, but who cares?!? hahah. I have missed y’all because I have actually been a little busier than usual. Here is the link to myspace page if anybody is interested in adding me. http://www.myspace.com/ok_so_i_am_older. I hope I don’t get in trouble for posting that here.

      As for this girl crying “wolf”, she needed to spend a little more time in jail is my opinion. I hope her hubby divorced her cheatin’ ass.
