With respect for the dignity and welfare of the individual involved, I won't disclose the name or location of this incedent.<br> On December 14 at around 8:00 am, a woman was found severely bleeding and incoherent in a resident's driveway. The location is very near the medical clinic in our rural community. Her car was there also.<br> The woman, presumed to be in her late 40's, was naked and bleeding from multiple stab and slash wounds (as many as 1<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START 8) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/glasses.gif ALT="8)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> .<br> The family that found her and called the police are Christians. When the wife told the injured woman "I'll pray for you", The woman said "no, please don't do that"<br> She is thankfully recovering in the hospital, but initial reports said she refused to give any information to police.<br> Subsequently, our small-town paper released a small article describing that the Sheriff has assured that there is no further threat to the community. He said his office had spent 150 hours on the case.<br> When this happened, people at first thought it was related to the local meth trade and was an assualt or robbery. People were pissed and scared.<br> But there were no arrests. No drug inquiry. No robbery reported. <br> The police have privately told people in the community "It was a lifestyle issue".<br> After much time spent reading RI, I began to wonder if this could have been related to ritual.<br> She was found early on the 14th, I assume the incedent happened late the previous night. with that in mind, there's this:<br><br>December 13th in Sweden is St Lucia's (light) day, also called "Little Yule". The youngest girl in the house is dressed in white, with a whortleberry wreath and candles placed on her head. She proceeds through the house giving sleepers sweet drinks or coffee in bed. In Lower Austria, Christians believe that this day is a time of witchcraft, and that the procession is done to ward off evil. Originally a Norse holiday devoted to the sun, the Christians tried to take over the pagan holiday on the 13th by claiming Lucia carried church candles rather then a fire brand representing the sun. A lingering folk belief in Sweden belies it's pagan origins by saying that the 13th was the shortest day of year, literally the demise of the old sun before renewal. The legend of King Arthur proclaims the fabled king fought 12 battles against the Saxons before succumbing on the 13th and making his journey to Avalon the Isle of Immortality. English King William Rufus was mysteriously slain in New Forest in 1100, during the 13th year of his reign at the harvest festival Lammas. It has long been rumored that this was related to ancient pagan practices concerning the length of kingship in the area. The Greek champion Heracules performed 12 labors before dying at the hands of trickery, where after he was taken to Olympus and reborn as a god. <br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://paganastronomy.net/math.htm">paganastronomy.net/math.htm</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br><br>St.Lucia = light = Lucid = lucifer<br><br>Saint Lucia's Day - Dec. 13th<br><br>December 13th is celebrated in honor of Saint Lucy, the young girl who according to legend died a martyr in Sicily. St. Lucia's Day is celebrated in other countries including Sweden. This day is celebrated in schools, day-care centers, nursing homes and hospitals, with processions led by a young Lucia in a white robe with a crown of lights on her head and a candle in her hand. In Norway, this night used to be called Lussinatten. It was the longest night of the year and no work was to be done. From that night until Christmas, spirits, gnomes and trolls roamed the earth. Lussi, a feared enchantress, punished anyone who dared work. Legend also has it that farm animals talked to each other on Lussinatten, and that they were given additional feed on this longest night of the year.<br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.californiamall.com/holidaytraditions/traditions-Norway.htm">www.californiamall.com/ho...Norway.htm</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br> <br>December 15th was the full moon:<br> <br> Any thoughts on this incedent? Possible ritual?<br>The strange thing is, when the police went to inspect the crime scene (her house), "her friends" were just finished cleaning it up. Now, everyone knows you can't mess with a possible crime scene. The cops were pissed.<br> Now it looks like they want to slide it under a rug. I have trouble believing that 18 stab wounds were self-induced....What the hell does "lifestyle issue" mean?...<br><br> <p></p><i></i>
