Daley Ponderings

It is somewhat humorous I guess, that all this takes so long and that the judges and attornies (and coroner) schedule all these meetings, get paid a ton per hour, and then don't bother to show up (or subpeona the witness, or let the interested parties know when things are happening, etc). There... (More)

Bernie says our car is dead. He can't figure out what is going on. He thought maybe the dealership might know something, but he didn't have a lot of hope. I have heard that a 1988 Dodge Caravan was/is a really good car, and should last a long time. I do see lots of them around Pittsburgh.... (More)

I finally found out what the meeting tomorrow for Judy is about. I thought it was some sort of hearing, but it turns out it is just a silly formality, where each charge is read in front of Judy, and then she pleads whatever to each charge, and then is done. So, I imagine not very... (More)

" By this we know love, that he laid down his life for us, and we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers. But if anyone has the world's goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God's love abide in him? Little children, let us not love in word or talk... (More)

Yesterday, while Jonathan was napping, I went downstairs to do some things. I didn't turn the monitor on, because I was only going to be gone "for a minute." Well, it ended up being a half hour, but I wasn't too concerned because his naps are usually at least 45 minutes, and I couldn't hear him... (More)

I don't know the whole story ( this article is the first I have heard of it), but if you can believe the media, I guess "they" will be coming to get Jonathan too, since he has picked up something off of the floor and put it in his mouth. Horrors. Woman whose child was taken at birth fights to... (More)

I just got back from the courthouse. The judge upheld all charges. The prosecution added a fourth charge as well, that I didn't really understand -- It was a little hard to hear everything. There is an additional charge of endangering the welfare of a minor, I think having to do with... (More)

I found a decent article that was written today.Clients, even Amish, supporting midwife charged in baby's death JENNIFER C. YATES Associated Press PITTSBURGH - A midwife charged in the death of a baby is getting support from former clients and friends, and even from members of the Amish... (More)

I think there are a bunch of places who are doing this, and I just should get the list, but Heather just bought a baby sling from these people. They donate a part of their profit to Judy's Legal Defense Fund. Avery Baby Care (More)

I thought I would be writing this post to say how great Lingo is, and how you should all sign up for their service. They answer their phone within a couple rings, no matter when I called, and sounded like they would be able to fix any technical problems I had. However, after spending hours on... (More)

The preliminary hearing that was originally scheduled for Monday is now pushed back to sometime in June. Prayer requests: For the district attorney, Lisa Pellegrini, that she would stop her continual harrassment of Judy, trying to make life difficult for her. For our family,... (More)

Judy was finally released tonight, yay! Prayer requests: Praise for Judy, God is amazing, and I continually hear reports of her faith, God's grace and strength in her life. For our family, particularly patience and peace-filled thoughts For the " Friends of Judy ", in their fund-raising... (More)

Judy is still in jail, held over the weekend for a variety of delays and other "mistakes" such as: the guy who takes the bail isn't here today the guy who does the psychological evaluation doesn't work on Saturdays the guy who does the psychological evaluations decided not to work on... (More)

Well, I guess I spoke too soon last week. Search and arrest warrants were filed today for Judy. Apparently, they took her files and computers and stuff, and expect her to turn herself in tomorrow. Her lawyer has asked for a $10,000 deposit (I forget what the lawyer word for that is), so I... (More)

Hi all. Thanks for continuing to pray for us, and for letting us know that you haven't forgotten all this stuff. Unfortunately, I am still adding to this web page in 2004, who would have thought? I don't think I have written previously that the case has switched attorneys, sometime towards the... (More)
