Thoughts Regarding Jerimie
The family was ASKED to alter the crime scene, by Jerimie. Remember when you "attended the trial" and they played the tape of him doing so? The transcripts are available if not, we can gladly post them. His mother wasn't able to because Great Falls Law Enforcement had already removed the bloody boots and uniform- they suspected Jerimie immediately (as he was the only person in the house with Kaelyn). Jerimie was convicted on charges of evidence tampering, you might remember that from "attending the trial" too?
There seems to be a concern that I never attended this trial. I did. My Editor and I were approached by a young lady during a recess. She stated the Prosecutor wanted to know who we were. We told her. Was that you Shannon? Anyways, this heart breaking event was important enough to step away from the daily grind to attempt to understand some of the 'whys'.

For The Love of Writing
Message
How do you take it? People don't get it. You do. How do you write? Your stories take a reader there to places like Casper. Are you from Wyoming or something?
I guess the human experience has so much to consider. When I write I explore. I mean I go to a trial of a young airman and watch the spectacle from many different perspectives. I went to the Death Chamber in Wyoming. I sat on top of Independence Rock. It's that certain feeling that lends itself to Social Fiction.
I hail out of Kansas as in Salina.

Gone but Not Forgotten
Been instructing at the Collegiate level. Many thanks for all the inquiring minds encountered. I will in fact commence with answers to all who have asked questions in my absence. Lets dig in.
This from Shannon . . . This wasn't a "Gordian Knot" - you could have prevented this with a minimal amount of research. Yes, at this point the book is out there and we are outraged, but I do applaud you for not deleting our reviews. What part of the trial you claim to have attended made you think Jerimie was innocent? I would actually love to hear that...
It was a "Gordian Knot" as it were. It was an extremely difficult problem for all involved. Everyone . . . yes even Jerimie, his friends and his family I am sure you'd agree. Your pain, the pain felt for the loss of a child was expected and comes out loud and clear. So the "Gordian Knot" has been expressed from all view points. Nazi Germany was outraged with books determined to be outside their realm of comfort and they had a book burning. I applaud you for not forgetting Kaelyn and I respect your view point though it seems . . . with no disrespect . . . to miss the thrust of Brand of Justice. I thought it apparent that Dub was innocent. Have you not heard of the Innocence Project? We have to strive for improvements to the system.
Jerimie had this to say . . ."I miss her, and I'm sorry to the Bray family and friends," he said, turning around to address them. "My apologies will not change anything. It will not bring her back, but I am truly, deeply sorry."

Fearless Ignorant and Honorable
Gotta hand it to the Dandelion Society . . . they are not afraid of posting. Gotta hand it to the Dandelion Society they toss their collective ignorance out there. Ahhh yes . . . they even sign their rants. Really is that anyway to avoid issues requiring improvement down the road? Isn't it about time for some rhythm, reason and logic?

Another Opinion from Big Sky Country
We are very sorry that after twos year of your book being out the Bray family and friends have decided to attack you. They all need mental health help. If we wanted to return the family character attacks we could with documents from the police dept and human services...but then we have become just as sorry as they are. It is unfortunate that the prosecution and detectives helped enhance the lies and have let her and her family and friends carry on with the game.

Great Falls Montana
I went to Great Falls and attended the trial. I stayed at the Airbase. I wanted to understand, feel the heartbreak and get to know the layout of the land. It's how I got my story straight. I attended the trial with my Editor and even walked along the words shortest river. I also went to the Prison and was strapped in the Death Chamber. Anytime a community loses a - Kaelyn - it is a time of heartbreak to be sure. I feel the pain from all angles including the Hicks family. 360 pain is pain and anguish to be sure.
Oh . . . by the way . . . I looked in the mirror and did notice a fine, though, haggered looking young man . . . well perhaps not as young as yesterday but you get the picture. Many thanks Albert Lea for the interest in my stories. You folks sustain me. Lets have a book get together at the Prairie.

Being Curt Rude
I wonder if I know the business of being Curt Rude. A plug here, drum roll please . . . I do know the business of Tinkey and Dub . . . my characters from Brand. Anyways, the reviews were posted as a splash . . . they're available on the Amazon Website after all. I highlight others thoughts and comments in yellow and respond away. So if ya wanna read the reviews just click on the book cover. Keep the thoughts coming my friends. Just keep 'em coming.
You really need to view your blog. The layout tiles are fucked up. Your book links are covering up the emails you posted. This really detracts from your message. It shows you do not know it all about the business of being Curt Rude.

Perspective and The Gordian Knot
As some have pointed out in the classroom . . . Reviews where the reader obviously doesn't get it and readily admits to simply bashing the story is outside the guidelines of Amazon. I am aware of this but feel Reviews that are signed and heartfelt have a place. My stories are difficult for some. I realize that. When I was at the trial I sat behind the grieving Mother but felt it simply wrong to approach her. Now I have the accused and his feelings as stated on the back of 'Brand of Justice' and the Mother who lost a child as part of the Reviews and on this Blog. Many thanks Jessica and please believe I acknowledged your grief. The Gordian Knot has been tied so to speak.

Holding a Belief is a Crime? Say what!
Information is the key. All points of view must be considered before we land in better tomorrows. How does one go from being a hero (Airman United States Air Force) with a spotless record to an inmate and subject of this scorn?
Looking forward to Grand Forks and all your questions today. Is always interesting to consider options for better policing. I shivered at Ms Brays comment that the family had altered the crime scene but have to believe she was misinformed. That . . . my friends is the point. Improvements to our Justice System! That is why I hammer on with my brand of social fiction. To improve. To learn. To be better.

The claim that Jerimie Hicks is innocent is a crime in itself. I am from
Great Falls, and I remember this case well. Below I have included information
from the trial.
A person who would shove a child into a wall hard enough to dent the wall is scum,
and deserves the prison sentence he got. Please do not allow this author, or the
criminals involved, to profit from this local tragedy.
http://www.greatfallstribune.com/story/news/child-abuse
/2014/06/26/hicks-guilty-homicide/11392635/
"Hicks, who was alone in the house with Kaelyn when she sustained
severe injuries, claimed that he shoved her into the wall out of frustration,
but that she was fine after suffering minor injuries.
Hicks told police that later the girl fell down the stairs after
tripping on their puppy.
Emergency responders and doctors who later worked on Kaelyn
that day testified that they did not believe the girl's injuries were
consistent with a fall down the stairs."

The Pope Visited a Prison and so did I . . .
By Jessica Bray on September 8, 2015
Format: Paperback
The information in and around this book is based on lies.
The hicks family, who Mr Rude holds so highly, wants nothing
more than for their sociopath son to be released. They have gone
to great lengths to help him including cleaning up the crime scene
of the three year old girl he murdered! everything that happens to
Jerimie Hicks and his sick family is deserved and does not come close
to equalling the brand of justice they deserve! Go back to drugs mr. RUDE,
at least those delusions are explainable.
There is no explanation for profiting from the murder of a child!
Shame on you Mr. Rude! Kaelyns momma.
I cannot and will not be drawn into an exchange with a mother who
lost her child. I admire you . . . Jessica . . . for signing your post.
So many are too fearful to stand behind their thoughts. I obviously
stand behind this story that has helped many since its release including
a young lady who was confronted by police in North Platte, Nebraska.
I was not aware of any diagnosis of sociopathic tendencies regarding
the Hicks family. I'm confused on the matter of cleaning up the
crime scene. Was the scene not protected by the investigating officers?
What brand of justice does the Hicks family deserve?
I recently was involved in a benefit for heroin addicts in an attempt
to be a part of the solution and would go back and do it again.
Profiting from the murder of a child? I want to understand it,
to consider all view points, in an effort to avoid another incident like this.
I want to highlight the sense of lose all felt including the
Hicks family, the Bray family, and to all touched by this
senseless tragedy.
The Pope went to a Prison, not to judge but to be compassionate.
I went to Great Falls to understand many different viewpoints
and am not sure of the 'holds so highly' comment.
To be sure, I am very sorry for your lose.

Amazon Reviews Run Amok!
As Austin Powers said . . . Oh Behave. My story regards the System
and not Kaelyn per say. I did attend the trial and sat with the 'wear pink'
supporters (who were acting against the wishes of the Judge).
Perhaps one must be open to new ideas so it is unfortunate you fear my story.
Remember what once was said by a wise man sometime ago . . .
Judge not Least be Judged. Agreed . . . Kaelyn is a victim to be sure.

I did not, nor will I, read this book. This man says he attended
the trial of Jerimie Hicks? Who he quotes on the back of the book?
If he did then he saw video testimony of Jerimie admitting he bashed
in a little girls head, and then put her in pajamas and left her upstairs
in her bed to die while he tried to clean the evidence.
To quote him and portray him as a victim completely sickens me...
Mr. Rude the real victim was Kaelyn Serene Bray... She was three...
And Jerimie showed his character when he hurt her, and left her
injured for hours. How dare you profit from my sisters heartbreak.

PR Problem and I'm Not Talking about Whataburger
'We don't serve police': Why officers turned away from Whataburger
Two police officers say they were denied service at the popular southern fast-food chain in Lewisville, Texas because they work in law enforcement. Does this represent a growing sentiment against the police?
If I was a cop today I'd be really careful where I ordered a burger . . . ya never know what could be included with your purchase.
