I grew up in Highland Falls. It's a small town. Everybody knows everybody and everything. <br />The only thing that matters is Jerica. Who are we to judge her mother and grandparents? We weren't with them 24/7, so we're just speculating. I'm not sticking up for Chris either. We as people don't know what we're truly capable of. It's sad that Jerica had to die such a horrible death. I miss her.Tiara Mallorynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8740475.post-12974383864120878582011-12-08T00:57:34.228-05:002011-12-08T00:57:34.228-05:00Its funny how people say Jerica didn't belong ...Its funny how people say Jerica didn't belong with her mother. Its crazy that the ones that said they knew Lisa say that she didn't want Jerica. How about you should really stop lying to yourselves. Because I was there from day one. I remember everything that happened. I remember the day Jerica was TAKEN away. Rhodes are such good people then ask them how the 2st DNA test went. Ask them how they really got custody ... if you want to know the truth ... do your research .... the Rhodes family can't hide from that. You take the side of a man that MURDERED A CHILD. Because he knew the truth was about to be revealed .... so unless you know the full story I suggest you don't speak on it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8740475.post-26796501948033157222011-07-20T09:54:53.621-04:002011-07-20T09:54:53.621-04:00Also, I want to say that I'm sure the grandpar...Also, I want to say that I'm sure the grandparents of this child might have been very nice people. <br /><br />Unfortunately they were also enablers, similar to Casey Anthony's parents, who right up until the end were lying to protect her...<br /><br />Actually Florida is considering pressing charges against Cindy Anthony, Casey's mother, for lying on the stand and saying she, herself, did the search for chloroform on the internet. Meanwhile they called her job in to testify and they testified Cindy Anthony was at work on the day and time the search was performed.<br /><br />Sad really.NYMOMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05762350054432716749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8740475.post-54164502143083913902011-07-19T21:17:07.376-04:002011-07-19T21:17:07.376-04:00Christopher Rhodes got what he deserved. Hopeful ...Christopher Rhodes got what he deserved. Hopeful the inmates at what ever correctional facility will take care of this dirt bag. I've known Chris Rhodes for a long time, and he was a bully, a drug dealer, a fake gangster. I don't feel sorry for his mother. For years her son was running the streets of Highland Falls, terrorizing all the kids. Selling drugs on Center Street, or on Main. I remember one time he was running from the cops down main street in the middle of the day. This is the type of individual you'd let raise a baby? I wouldn't trust him to look after my dog. It's a shame that Baby Jerrica fell through the cracks and was left to Chris Rhodes to kill her. Don't judge unless you know the whole story? Seriously? What type of idiot actually thinks that the public doesn't have a clear cut picture of what type of person Chris Rhodes was? Yeah Let's blame Jerrica's mom, for contributing to Jerrica's Death. That makes perfect sense. We should blame the Highland Falls Police Department for not getting child services involved. We should blame Chris Rhodes Family for allowing Chris Rhodes to continue his mental, physical, and probably sexual abuse of Baby Jerrica.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8740475.post-10489612992043421822010-02-05T08:32:11.381-05:002010-02-05T08:32:11.381-05:00It's sad that even after all this time there i...It's sad that even after all this time there is still some support for Christopher Rhodes and his side of the family...and who wants to take odds this is a woman supporting him?<br /><br />We are often our own worse enemies...NYMOMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05762350054432716749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8740475.post-49302200876611445562010-02-03T11:15:47.570-05:002010-02-03T11:15:47.570-05:00Jerica most def. did not belong with her mother.

A post from a person who doesn't reveal her (or his) name carries very little weight. Who are you?
