SANDRA CANTU CASE: SOURCES- LAWLESS RELATIVE ARRESTED ON SEX CHARGES
BREAKING NEWS
Folsom, CA– As Melissa Huckaby awaits her arraignment in court this afternoon in San Joaquin County, Blinkoncrime.com has discovered the arrest last week of Timothy John Lawless, a relative to Huckaby and the Lawless family. Folsom Police Department verified this afternoon Lawless was arrested on April 15.
Timothy Lawless was arrested on THE EXACT SAME SEX CHARGE AS Huckaby. Lawless is in custody at the Sacramento County Jail under a $1Million Bond, charged with 10 counts of lewd and lacivious acts on a child under 14.
288. (a) Any person who willfully and lewdly commits any lewd or
lascivious act, including any of the acts constituting other crimes
provided for in Part 1, upon or with the body, or any part or member
thereof, of a child who is under the age of 14 years, with the intent
of arousing, appealing to, or gratifying the lust, passions, or
sexual desires of that person or the child, is guilty of a felony and
shall be punished by imprisonment in the state prison for three,
six, or eight years.
Lawless is also charged with rape with a foreign instrument, but formal charges have not been formalized by the DA. Lawless’s next appearance in court is scheduled for May 14, 2009.

I think MH dd would be the little blond girl. She looks like her dad who was in the interview. I wonder who is the brown haired child, she look like she’s hawaiian or Asian? Connie L is said to take in children or something, maybe that is what it is about?
I agree.
And I also agree there is a Hawaiian connection.
B
I thought MH’s husband was John Huckaby? that my space says Brian??? and I have wondered if the little girl in the Facebook pic with PE wasn’t Madison…..
Also Blink, I know there is a slim chance that the missing MN girl is the girl I spoke of above with PE is the same person, but has someone reported it to the MN authorities just in case?
Brian is Melissa’s Dad. I will take care of your concern today personally, it should be checked out given the So. Cal reference.

Blink – a friend, emailed me last night. If your web site is becoming saturated – please let us know, so we can follow you to the next location. A few paragraphs from her email:
” Note: At this time Blinkoncrime has started up a lot of the
research attempt re: the Timothy Lawless – Huckabee connection on the website scaredmonkies, the Sandra Cantu thread there, because Blink’s site is overwhelmed with comments and needs more webspace. So I don’t know if more will be added to her site about this tomorrow, if it will just continue on scaredmonkies site.
Finally, the fact that the cause of death has not been disclosed and there is a gag order — today, the DA’s opposition to the defendant’s motion to disinter was sealed by the Judge on her own –and the judge’s statement that she is gagging things to avoid public “outrage” — has caused the public to feel that there must be a lot more going on in the case.
So researchers are working on the Internet to try to develop information that can protect kids around this Tracy milieu, because there is no information provided by law enforcement, other than its mere announcement, not backed by facts, that Huckaby acted alone.”
I would agree to see the work in progress by alot on here and some stellar “sleuths”, scaredmonkeys.net, is the best place on the web for complete case information. In this case the Sandra Cantu thread. Sounds like your friend is sharp like you.

What happened to this thread ? I haven’t seen any activity for almost 24 hours.

Subject: Timothy Lawless
The following website has been doing quite a bit of research on Timothy Lawless arrest and looking for a connection to the M Huckaby case. A question was possed and I thought the best way to solve the mystery was simply to email you and ask you. Is there a reason you have not reported a story on Timothy Lawless ?
“I too spent a lot of time on Timothy Lawless. It is odd that given the grave nature of his alleged offense, that the Sacramento Bee and Folsom Telegraph did not provide an article. Also Lawless, a former marine, IT guy who worked in major corporations, married to a realtor from a high class firm, on a noted softball team in Folsom, called Gayle Mfg. team, is not a marginal person, so some news coverage would have been expected.”

Subject: RE: Timothy Lawless
As far as we know, and also from what the cops and jail tell us, Timothy Lawless is not related to Melissa Huckaby. That’s why there’s no story. If we found out they were related, we would report on it. But just because someone has the same last name as her grandparents and is charged with a grave crime isn’t enough of a link.
(I emailed back and asked if she would mind me posting her response):
No prob. I appreciate that you’ll let me know if someone finds something! Our sources may not know — or may not be telling the truth. Thanks!

ooo good lookin out. thank you Blink.. so I assume, IMO is in my opinion…. hopefully they’re not many other terms I am not familar with …. thanks again.
Hey Blink,
I too put in for a login on scared monkeys…. heard nothing.
I tried to copy and paste the gag order signed on April 21, 2009. It’s a word document – have any ideas how I can post it here ?
How many pages? Can you upload to a photobucket or docstoc?

NOW THIS IS WHY NOTHING IS GOING ON IN THE CANTU CASE PUBLICALLY !!!! (AN EMAIL FROM A FRIEND)
“Ladies: Just one comment on the email exchange below: I can’t agree with J on her comment about the judge’s gag order primarily because it includes “potential witnesses”. As K explained it to me that means if we as journalist would try to interview a neighbor, whistle blower, just an ordinary citizen and they should talk to us, those individuals would be at risk for contempt of court charges even if they had not been noticed that they were potential witnesses.
This vague, all encompassing language enables any other charges past, present or future that might be brought against Melissa Huckaby and/or her extended family or “friends” who might also be culpable to be hidden from the public because of the Judge’s gag order.
It is my belief that the more information you get out to the public the greater the liklihood the truth will surface and the less likely the perps was stay hidden…………..Just a thought………..V.”
#363 – Blink – it’s one page. I’ll upload to photobucket or docstoc, but you will have to tell me how to do it. You can also email me and I could attach the file to an email back to you.
I will email you

This is an email from a friend who is an attorney, but no longer practicing. She comes from a legal angle.
“Thanks for posting it. I don’t mind. You can post all or some of it, if you feel like it, on Blinkoncrime, or on Scaredmonkeys discussion board re: Sandra Cantu — two threads there, the link between Huckaby and T. Lawless’ and a general link or on Insession discussion forum. Websleuths is doing a poor job in that they moderate out a lot of stuff re: alternative theories.”
It may be the FBI is behind or participating in the Lawless arrest, especially if it involves their jurisdiction: internet child porn, trafficking minors across state lines, or a kidnap or murder of am minor. The FBI can of course issue it own warrants for arrest. In some California cases, the local authorities do an
arrest for child porn and then the U.S. attorney takes over the case.
California State penalties for possession of child porn are moderate compared to federal penalties.
The FBI investigated the church in Washington so someone at the church
must be involved with Melissa Huckaby, or someone there is involved
with another suspect in the Huckaby case, or there is something in
Huckaby’s background about being abused in the context of that church
or someone connected to it.
Of course, if a church is involved in child abuse, then the door opens for investigation of cultic, ritual or Satanic aspects of the case. In the Catholic abuse cases, there was a cultic aspect ranging from outright Satanic stuff to priests telling altar boys that they had to shut up and put up or they would go to hell, etc. Also, there is speculation that Huckaby may have used church type items — a crucifix?– in regard to Cantu or other children or herself. There is also speculation that Cantu is an abuse victim herself, and the abuse may involved some religious ideas or persons.
There are a lot of cultic cases where people beat the demons out of
someone and feel they must do so and are justified, or must do so
to save themselves. There are some cultic cases where a person
is told they have a demon and are engaged in molestation or have
urges to do so, and it is not true. I personally dislike all this
demon type stuff, but it is going on, even in mainstream religions.
I think the defense attorney’s dropping his request for disinterment
and a second autopsy shows that the defense will not be agressive
in the early stages of this case. Because there will be no
second autopsy, who knows what could have been detected? Decomposition is already set in where Cantu is located — a mausoleum. Although the medical examiner could have retained specimens for the defense to analyze, that act would not compare to having the entire body available. The D.A. should have offered to stipulate to a second
autopsy or at least freezing the body until the defense motion for
the second autopsy could be heard. The defense motion was filed
AFTER the body was taken out of the freezer to the funeral home.
So decomposition and embalming occurred marring potential
scientific review. Essentially, the DA’s allowing the evidence out
of the freezer destroyed a big opportunity for a second medical
forensic review of the case.
Now the DA’s opposition to the motion to disinter has been sealed sua sponte by the judge without a hearing or opportunity
for the media to file a request to unseal.”
Am I correct in hearing recently that a partial lift of the gag order was approved by the judge in this case?TIA
Also waiting for SM approval.
ANOTHER EMAIL WORDS OF WISDOM FROM A FRIEND LIVING NEAR TRACY:
“It is a glaring coincidence at least that T. Lawless and Huckaby, face
similar charges, at the same essential time, and share a last name.
As of now, the efforts on Blink site have resulted in finding out that the Lawless family, has several sex offenders in its ranks, and is very connected to religion. Of course, one can say if any family is traced enough these types of connections or similar ones can occur. Soon, some report will be done by the Blink researchers which lays out all the Lawless Huckaby family history. Given that shrinks say molestation tends to be a multigenerational phenomena, this type of
data could shed light onthe Cantu case.
Whether or not a familial connection exists between Melissa Huckaby and Timothy Lawless — who knows.
Because Folsom, where T. Lawless lives is only a one hour drive to Tracy, and because Huckaby described herself on her website as a “party organizer”, and she appeared to have several male friends in Tracy, it is possible that this group of people knew each other. Note, no adult female friend of Huckaby in Tracy has surfaced that I know of.
What is really driving people crazy in this Tracy case is that no one
really believes that Melissa Huckaby acted alone. People also do not
believe the police who say she acted alone because, 1) they did not
put out an Amber alert that night, and 2) they did not put out bloodhounds that night. My God– what did they think Sandra Cantu did — hop on a bike and go to a bar? 3) the young cop handling the matter Cogburn failed to make a detention of Huckaby when she took the first girl and apparently drugged her in January 09.
Also the Tracy 60, covered by the Tracy Press on April 6 (no longer online, don’t have the article but has been quoted) indicated that Cogburn said that he knew of 50 or 60 people in Tracy currently using child porn and he didn’t have enough evidence to arrest them. There have been three big arrests for child abuse, porn, including the Tracy teen case in the last few months in Tracy. The feds ran Operation Valley Predator last year in the Central Valley and Tracy police participated. This flushed out some, I guess, but it may have made others more careful, and use unusual methods of procurements, photography, etc. such as enlisting Huckaby whom no one suspected of anything.”
An Amber Alert is only useful if they have a description of an abductor, & a vehicle description. That’s the whole point of putting up the info on freeway signs, so there are many eyes looking for the abductor’s vehicle.
Hi Rebel – what about the dogs – combing the neighbor and nearby. Is this typical procedure ?
That could possibly have been helpful, but I don’t know that every community would have a pack of bloodhounds on standby. Perhaps a regular K9 unit might be trained for tracking, I don’t know.
REGARDING A PARTIAL LIFT ON THE GAG ORDER – an email from my attorney friend living near Tracy:
Sent: Thursday, April 30, 2009 1:23 PM
Subject: RE: Partial lift of the gag order in Sandra Cantu case.
“As of April 30 at 12:15 p.m, there is no news on the official
San Joaquin Superior Court website that the gag order was partially lifted. The original gag order remains in place. There was a news article that speculated that it would be partially lifted. Also the court has not emailed to the media any information about a partial lift.
It would probably take a motion by media before the judge to try to lift or modify the original gag order or the gag order on the document filed by the DA in opposition to the disnterment.
Unfortunately, once a judge puts a gag order in place, it is darn expensive in time and money to do the paperwork to try to lift it. And the media usually will have the motion denied by the trial judge and her judicial decisions will havfe to go up appeal to the California Court of Appeals with a writ application and if the writ is not denied summarily, which often happens, and the writ is actually reviewed by the court, the process often takes months to hear. This is so despite the fact the media usually requests quick emergency relief re: lifting a gag so that the trial proceedings don’t pass by in a gagged stated, before a court actually issues a decision one way or the other.
Public court proceedings are the goal of the California judiciary, at least officially, but in practice, sealing is rampant in all kinds of cases, often for specious reasons.
I see your posting at ScaredMonkeys, Blink, and co. I admire your activism.
It appears from the response of the Tracy Press that they did not dig into the Timothy Lawless connection to Melissa Huckaby, other than making a few phone calls to the official authorities.”
K
They’re close enough to San Francisco that I’m sure they have K9 units on call.
Well, the genealogy research goes on, but really…
If MH & the “relative” hung out together, then it would be a significant connection, & relevant.
If they are related because their great-grandfathers were 3rd cousins, how is that relevant at all? It isn’t…
Just because people have the same last name doesn’t make them related, & again – If their family trees are connected 50 years back, what does that prove?
Sacsayhuan:
Has your attorney friend given any insight into why they think that MH has not eneterd a plea to date? I tend to agree with Blink (see comment #303) in that the delay is because MH is cooperating. I would surmise that a plea bargain will be announced and other arrests will probably be made in this case by the next court date. But, I would love to hear a legal point of view on this.
Thank You for the gag order info!..I am one who is expecting more to come in this case as I find it possible because of the number of nefarious individuals around the suspect and church.
Another disturbing case…

Seriously- wth?
B
Hi There,
This is my first attempt at a thred so I apologize. I worked with Tim Lawless up until the time of his arrest. I don’t have information regarding the relation (if any) but I can say that to my knowledge the charges are not related in any regard. Although I did not work with Lawless very long, I believe the word is that he turned himself in for the actions taken on his part.
With respect Ms. Kelly, that is not correct. I agree at this juncture the charges against him may not be related to the case against Melissa Huckaby in her charges for the rape and murder in the death of Sandra Cantu, but Timothy and Melissa are “related.” He did not turn himself in, a warrant was issued for his arrest. What are your impressions of him as a co-worker?
B
He was a very chatty person. He shared personal information very openly with the staff. He was very outgoing and was associated with a great deal of large organizations. He had many networking connections and a great deal of people found it surprising to learn of his arrest. I can agree that most all of us very very surprised at the arrest but to some he had a very uneasy personality to him that was a bit to slick even for working in Sales.
I agree and have seen that 100%. I am witholding more comment at this time. He is no “sales” person. I have a copy of hs credentials, he is the equivalent of a SR PMP on the web with international assets. KWIM?
B
As for the warrant, that does make sense. I am only speculating but I believe he received a phone call (alerting him of the warrant?) and turned himself in shortly there after.
svl —– your scenarios
“You can post this or part of it if you want to.
Speaking as a hardscrabble writer/reporter on true crime
cases over the years, not as one having any attorney expertise,
I would say:
1) Because of the court’s gag order and seal of the DA’s opposition
to the defense motion to disinter, figuring out why Melissa Huckaby
did not yet enter a plea is speculation, unless an insider is
leaking info.
However there are reporting/research techniques to determine
Huckaby’s and her attorneys’ motivations re: her plea.
2) First, in many cases, especially serious felonies, and where
the mental condition of the defendant may be at issue, pleas
are delayed several times, so the attorneys can acquaint themselves
with the case and discovery and interview their client, and obtain
a mental health evaluation to determine if the issue of incompetency
to stand trial should be raised or a plea of not guilty, plus not guilty by reason of
insanity should be entered. All this may take months or work.
3) However, it is possible that more than one person was involved
in the death of Sandra Cantu. In the law enforcement investigation itself, the
identity of other possibly involved parties may have been revealed and it would be
unnecessary to rely on Huckaby’s testimony alone in order to arrest
or indict these persons. In short, law enforcement would not need
Huckaby in order to arrest other involved parties. In that case, Huckaby could try
to show these other persons dominated her alleged conduct or that her role was
minimal in compared to theirs, in an attempt to plea bargain. If the
authorities drew total blanks in their own investigation of accomplices and
Huckaby wants to give one or more up to the authorities, she would
have to be subjected to a complete interview under oath, either
before a DA, Judge, law enforcement, in which she gives them up
with credibile testimony, as a condition of a plea bargain. Can she or will
she do this, if others, are in fact involved? Is she mentally competent
to do so? Is she scared?
4) Instead of dealing with Huckaby only or completely, or if she
stalls out, if law enforcement has enough leads to go on, they can impanel
a grand jury in either San Joaquin County, or if the U.S. Attorney for the
U.S. District Court, Eastern District decides to do so, in Sacramento.
Then the grand jury can hear testimony from anyone subpoenaed regarding the
Cantu death and even testimony in regard to potential cases which are not
really related, but possibly involve child abuse or child porn or even
other matters than may just come up during testimony. Those who
take the Fifth amendment rather than testify, can be offered immunity
from prosecution in order to testify, and that could include Huckaby, or
Huckaby may obtain a plea deal as condition of her testifying to
the grand jury.
Where the hardscrabble citizen sleuths, reporters, writers and
researchers come into this equation is that the Presiding Judges of
the San Joaquin Superior Court and of the U.S. District Court,
Eastern District in Sacramento, run the grand juries. The DA’s or
US attorneys issue subpoenas to people to attend, and although they
may be gagged from talking if they are witnesses, the fact that
they are subpoenaed causes them to make a journey to the grand jury room,
where reporters and the public can see them enter and leave and meet
with attorneys, thus a clear indication that a grand jury is meeting.
The location of current grand jury rooms is public information. The
Presiding Judges decide the locations ultimately.
If there is a federal grand jury, it is reasonable to think that other
suspects are involved in the death of Sandra Cantu, or involved in
other similar type cases — molest and porn — in the San Joaquin area,
because there would be no reason to elevate it to the federal level
unless federal offenses, i.e. child porn offenses, child trafficking, murder
conspiracy or aiding/abetting across state lines were involved.
If there is a San Joaquin grand jury, it may not mean that other suspects
are involved. It may just mean the DA wants to skip past the grand jury
and make the whole proceeding one of the grand jurors’ deciding to
indict, not just the D.A. making a lone ranger decision. But if there are a
lot of witnesses unknown by sight going in and out of the of the grand
jury room in San Joaquin County, the case may be wider in scope that
just allegations against Huckaby.
You can study the impact of grand jury proceedings by looking at the
cases of the Sund/Carrington and Peloso murders and by looking at the
Xiana Fairchild murder, and even by looking at the Barry Bonds case.
The fact that grand jury proceedings are going on is reportable to some
degree despite a gag order, because people SEE the witnesses and lawyers
going in and out and even holding their subpoenas to attend. A reporter or
the public can report that he saw Mr. Jones going into the grand jury
room on such a date, along with other identifiable persons, without
violating the gag order. It has been done before.
Finally, a big question in the mind of Huckaby and all defendants is
that if they snitch on someone else they may feel they will die in
prison, even if their prison term is reduced. And that death in prison
would be at the hands of other criminals involved, directly or
indirectly. Huckaby may have received a warning she could not
refuse.
So, I hope this sheds a little light.
K”
I realize that dissenters have been criticized on this thread, but I still do not think the link between TL and MH is worth anything. I firmly believe that MH acted alone and I am sure the police would have made more arrests by now had there been a ring of abusers.
Kelly: Your description of Tim is spot on. I to worked with him back in ’95-’97. I ran into him a few months ago and we chatted. Doesn’t he have a couple kids? Where was he last working? He had told me he was running a staffing company.
Blink – I too signed up for a SM id, have never heard anything yet. Secondly, I was wondering if anyone had looked into the DMV records on TL and/or PE specifically for a beige Siverado…..
Child molestation and murder are crimes that even the most hardened criminals and felons do not tolerate.
If any of them die in prison, it is because they are involved in the murder of a child. Not because they “snitched” on someone. I apreciate the opinion, but it is just playing on the sensational stereotypes you see and here on TV and in no way reflects the reality of how crimes against minors are viewed by the prison population.
These people in prison might be there for beating a man to death with a bat, or selling drugs, or assualt, or armed robbery…but even they feel the same way about child abuse as you, me and the rest of us.
The difference, is that they take justice into their own hands. No trials, no questioning, no lawyers, no appeals. Just sentencing.
Law enforcement looking far into the past of Melissa’s grandfather is noteworthy. Apparently LE is continuing evidence gathering.Recent removal of blinds etc. at the church and personal residence.
If the FBI is still involved in what is a LOCAL crime with the alleged suspect in the jail,well that encourages one (me) to broaden the scope of inquiry.
Also associations Melissa had with people in the MHP that had criminal histories,is troubling.The Tracy detectives recent statement that Melissa spent an “extraordinary amount of time”within the church,which is basically unused and where the murder scene is located,well its suspect.
These are not witch hunt type irrational questions I have about this case.These are important questions to ask concerning this thus far unusual case.The possibility that child sexual abuse may reach beyond the murder of Sandra Cantu and could have something to do with Melissa or associates close to her (boyfriends ,family etc)is a valid concern.
If any of you are like me and you’ve looked at an RSO list ,well age and occupation of these offenders is mind boggling.Offenders can be preachers etc as well as elderly individuals.So scrutiny of the Cantu tragedy and individuals in and around the family makes sense.
What we do know is that the FBI is in there. Do you remember the press conference when the Tracy Police Chief gave her statement while the FBI stood next to her ? He didn’t say a word – which I thought was weird – but he was right up there next to her at the podium – why bring him there and he not say a single word ?
Because there is an active investigation and technically at that point they were in asisst mode, and not in a position to represent Tracy PD. That has changed. They are leading and you will not hear a peep from them until it’s conclusion, if at all.
B
Sacsayhuan,
you wrote: “The FBI investigated the church in Washington so someone at the church must be involved with Melissa Huckaby, or someone there is involved with another suspect in the Huckaby case, or there is something in Huckaby’s background about being abused in the context of that church or someone connected to it.”
Could it be she confessed that tTim molested HER (MH) when she was young and all of those charges are for acts committed against Melissa herself? If a person who has commit sexual offense against a child, is there any statute of limitations (or whatever you call it) that disallows charges to be brought after a specific length of time?
Would make sense…it’s now being said in other posts, but early on I was convinced MH had either been molested in a church, or by someone representing/involved in one.
Jeez… There is NO evidence that MH & TL are connected in any way… Why engage in wild speculation like that?
And just because something is being investigated doesn’t mean there “must be” some involvement. That’s why it’s called an investigation, they’re looking into it, but there isn’t necessarily anything to find.
Do you know Tim Lawless?
B
B –
Okay, I’ll ask before this drives me batty. What does KWIM stand for?
R
Sorry, my bad, know what I mean = KWIM
B
No, the only person involved I know is Maria Chavez, which is why I’m following this case & why I’m on this forum.
I hoped to find a place where all the facts are reported, since the first forum I ran across was Websleuths, & they’re totally freakin’ wacky over there.
I know that I keep making Blink angry by commenting about wild theories being spouted, but really the facts are what’s important, & some of the stuff I read on here is goofy, & doesn’t help w/ the credibility when facts ARE being reported.
If you think that people will take this site seriously when they read about suspecting people because they have “Masonic names” & numerology charts & such, you’re kidding yourself. Mainstream people will write you off as loony-tunes.
I watch scaredmonkeys, too, & all the looking for family connections back in the 1800′s. Really, what is the point of all that? What relevance does it have to Sandra Cantu’s tragic murder? Seems like a lot of tail-chasing to me… I know that anyone that dissents is frowned upon, but I’m just stating my opinion. Thanks!
Rebel-
We get it already. For someone proclaiming to be interested in facts, your comment is seriously devoid of them. I am committed to advocacy work for victims and reporting atrocities for justice for victims, and hopefully even hinder and prevent abuse to some as- yet- unsuspecting- victim. If you dont think that helps society in any way, than apparently you just object to how I spend my time. As far as not being taken seriously, this site was featured on CNN this week, and If you don’t mind me saying, I find that a better barometer of the work than you. I’m over this already. Dont like it, don’t read it.
B
Blink,
Not to hijack the thread or anything but why is there no mention of the Angel Robles case on your site? Just curious because they are re-opening an investigation into another death of an infant in the past in relation to him and they added sexual battery charges, autopsy said the 11 month old was molested with a cylindar type object.
This guy is a monster.
loco
TIm Lawless did not molest MH. I cannot disclose on such a open forum, I am not sure it is appropriate for the abused to be under the microscope.
Rebel, you do sound like you knew Tim?
Shorty, Tim does have a couple of kids, both are under 14. He was “running” his own company as he says but he was full of so much talk it’s hard to know if he was really doing that prior.
For information, you can contact me directly.
I emailed you on this.
B
Loco – please give us a link – I looked the name up on Google – and am confused – no recent news – thanks.
Why does being skeptical of wild speculation make me sound like I know anybody in particular? I’m just trying to put a little logic into the discussion, but it’s not welcome. I’ll take Blink’s advice of “don’t like it – don’t read it”.
Probably because its not wild speculation and definately because you offer nothing to back it up. Blinkoncrime readers
are respectful of dissenters who are respectful to them.
Has anyone heard about the “Victim Advocate Group” sponsored by the Department of Justice ?

Good afternoon all,
Sacsayhuan: Thank you for such an in-depth look at the legal side of the MH plea question I posed in comment #376. It’s always good to get the differing viewpoints and I appreciate the feedback.
Rebel: I have to admit that I have gone back and forth with my own personal “theories” about this case and whether MH acted alone or in concert with someone else. Maybe it’s worth some consideration to ponder this question/observation regarding a central figure in this case, Pastor Lane Lawless (MH’s Grandfather). Isn’t is a bit odd that one person could be accused of child molestation in 3 different churches, in 3 different states, that spans back for several decades? (And thats just the ones we have heard of). Either this man has the worlds largest black cloud following him or he has managed to keep from getting caught. I vote for the latter of the two. This entire case has smelled like rotten eggs from the beginning and it appears that Grandpa Lawless is at the center of the yoke. Of course, and most respectively, thats just my opinion.
