PsychoThis happened in my hometown. I still remember hearing about it when I was very young. Noticed that some people with Venus in hard aspect to Neptune like Karla to stay in toxic/abusive relationships (like Pam Anderson, Rihanna, Whitney, etc).

Faith: Sad that it happened so close to you. --Its all good, it happened over 20 yrs ago. I'm a bit surprised that it still affects me and others I speak to about the situation. I can understand people's interest in the case because it was so awful. Its just easier for you girls to be more objective than me. When it was happening, high school girls were super protected and weren't allowed to wander alone. Anyways, I hope he gets humane treatment in prison...and stays there. --Yeah, despite of what he did I want to see him get humane treatment. I guess we need a definition of 'human treatment.' Homolka (when in prison) was allowed to take courses and gain her Psych degree from one of the top Uni's in the country. This was completely paid for by the state. It would be like Charles Manson going to Harvard and graduating with a psych degree. Not kidding. IP: Logged |

Trines are sneaky sometimes. They just indicate that the energy flows effortlessly. So if you have a sadistic inclination, it actually means that you probably will be able to express that sadistic nature effortlessly (and not become too obvious to your next environment) And yes this is totally revolting.
I read that Misha Collins played him in a film, but is warning everybody on conventions of this film and asking them to not watch it, as it was too sick, including the director. (no clue why he did the film to begin with.) IP: Logged |

Police disregarded the fact that Bernardo matched the composite sketch given by many rape victims.  Their handling of the case was a crime in itself! Then, all Karla had to do was play stupid and everyone fell for that. "Poor girl, just a dumb blonde, you know how they are." If women were taken seriously, Bernardo would have been in jail as a serial rapist, for life, and never met Karla. Or even if he just evaded police and all this DID happen, BOTH would have gotten punished to the fullest extent of the law.
Agreed. I read somewhere that only 3% of rapists spend even a day in prison (this is a US statistic, though I'm sure Canada is no better). Rapes aren't taken seriously and the victims are often blamed. On CNN, I remember they were saying that there are about 500,000 unprocessed rape kits, sitting on the shelves, gathering dust. One woman's rape kit was processed 25 years after the rape. They were able to identify the rapist through DNA samples, but it had been too long since the crime so they couldn't charge him. WTF is that.

It was such a sensational case across the GTA (Greater Toronto Area, not Grand Theft Auto). I was still playing with my toy trains and then seeing all the adults in the room watching the headlines on the news. You failed to mention: 1)It was only after Bernardo started to abuse Karla Homolka that she then turned Bernardo in. 2) Russel Williams, convicted rapist and killer was in the same university class and program as Bernardo. Several of this rapes crossed over Bernardo's and occurred in the same area. My Planets ========================================= ☉‘ ♊, ☽ ♈, ASC ♑, ☿ ♊, ¡÷ ♉, ¡ö ♋ , ♃ ♒, ♄ ♏, ♅ ♐, ♆ ♑

What are y'all on LOL Makin' Scorp/Pluto look like a fluffy puppy. IP: Logged |

I was really young then. I'd assume you would have taken that into account. I guess people aren't that smart on this site.I should have stopped and explained that point then proceed. The case was in 1995 that was 23 yrs ago what I was referring to was how young I was at the time and what I was doing at that time. It was such a sensational case. Most of the users on lindaland are from the US so unless you actually lived in the Toronto area especially the Niagara region in the early 90's then none of you should comment about the case. You don't know the environment that existed in the 90's and why it was so sensational. Toronto and Southern Ontario had an almost innocent image, that and many other high profile cases ruined the "Toronto the Good Image". At one time it was almost okay to let a 10yrs old go to the bus alone in the 90's and everyone was supper friendly way friendlier then the people on this site based on the way you people have been responding lately. Heck if I told the average American I live in the extreme North in an igloo they would believe me. Its like being in a Computational Geometry class only the people in the room actually get it. Then you leave the room try to tell someone else and you assume they already know the basics when they don't and they get confused.
