UNSOLVED MURDER MONDAY 5/10
ReplyDeleteWLNS
Posted: May 11, 2010
It's a murder that shocked the city of Lansing, one that reverberated beyond our state's borders, a murder that, nearly nine years later, remains unsolved. Listen to the facts of the Bernita White killing and see if you can help police solve the mystery.
On a sunny, summer day, Bernita White was having a party at Lansing Potter Park for one of her children. Despite some turbulence in her personal life, this was a happy day for Bernita until a lone gunshot rang out. Moments later Bernita White lay dead in front her children and dozens of others, but a member of the family remains at the center of the case. Bernita's estranged husband, Artis White, himself a member of the state police force then and to this day. Through a seemingly endless investigation, White remains the lone person of interest, but he's written a book claiming police incompetence and made a video of his side of the story as well. Artis White has always maintained his innocence.
Artis White, May 2003: "I did not kill my wife."
For the first time ever, Lansing police pull out the entire case work for us to see. Four massive binders, more than 2,000 pages of documents and boxes and boxes of evidence with one message to deliver.
Police official: "We're still working this year."
Because unlike many cold cases, this one in particular is one the LPD says it will never set aside.
Police official: "This doesn't sit well with the community."
Still, the lead detective assigned to the case admits getting this to trial will be difficult, and nearly a decade of investigating frustrates them and the public.
Police official: "People watch CSI, it doesn't work that way and yet there is hope. I'd love nothing more."
And for Bernita's sister Belinda, who each year takes out an ad in the paper to remind everyone that a killer remains on the lose. Then passing years have not diminished her desire to see justice done.
Victim's sister: "One day we'll have an answer."
If you have any information that could help police solve this cold case, call Crimestoppers at 483-stop. There's up to a 1,000 dollar reward for any tip that leads to an arrest.

It appears that 'someone' - ahem - wants people to be misled into believing that the blue Chevy Caprice used by the Beltway Snipers John Allen Muhammad and Lee Boyd Malvo was at Potter Park Zoo the day Bernita was murdered.
This 'someone' -ahem- wants to throw public doubt at the Lansing PD's investigation of Bernita's murder. So let's clear this up ASAP...

DeleteThanks.
Proverbs 6:16-19
There are six things which the Lord hates,
Yes, seven which are an abomination [a]to Him:
Haughty eyes, a lying tongue,
And hands that shed innocent blood,
A heart that devises wicked plans,
Feet that run rapidly to evil,
A false witness who utters lies,
And one who spreads strife among brothers.

ReplyDeleteIn White's book about his ex- wife's shooting death, he doesn't mention how he was busted by the Lansing police department for using the State Police law enforcement information network to stalk Bernita. Criminal charges were not filed. What is up with that?
ReplyDeleteWhite's book does not mention he hired a private investigator to follow his ex-wife.

ReplyDeleteHey. You need to say what you know or if you don't know, don't say anything at all. IF YOU THINK this is a distraction, I can tell you it will probably backfire.
ReplyDeleteDude is spewing all that Malvo bs because he lied to police in saying he witnessed the Beltway Shooter coming out of zoo area after Bernitas murder. Load of shit. He can't accept that his story is bogus & his brain is all chewed up. Go crawl back under your looney rock.
