Has anyone heard of the 2018 Austin serial bomber Mark Anthony Conditt? Well after watching a "documentary" on Hulu I thought I do a little digging. For some reason I found it hard to believe that a 23 year year old home schooled "Christian fundamentalist" would have the knowledge to build elaborate mail package bombs. His parents worked for Amway, which was founded by Richard DeVos, the father in law of Betsy Devos whose brother is named Erik Prince who runs Blackwater. Am I the only one who finds this odd? Lol

She (and the Prince family) are devout members of the--you'll never guess--(neo-Calvinist) Christian [Dutch] Reformed Church in North America. Just like Arliss Perry, JA Getreu... She is currently a member of Mars Hill Bible Church, a megachurch (they occupy an entire fucking mall, donated by a wealthy patron) "planted" by members of another megachurch, Calvary Church of Grand Rapids.
Well, back to our bomber. And the bizarrely deafening silence about him. He was apparently targeting black and hispanic people. I mean, why the news blackout? Here's an interesting coincidence--other kids from his home-schooling group say he and they were members of "Righteous Invasion of Truth." That rang a bell. You'll never, ever guess where they have a major base--Georgetown, Guyana. So, what? Well, Guyana was once a DUTCH colony, taken over by the British Empire. Like New York. Claus von Rosenfelt, founder of the Roosevelt dynasty in America, probably had business interests in Guyana. Anyhoo, one wonders if the targets of Conditt's bombs had connections to Guyana...

The whole case stinks. I found it odd the police knew which side of the car to try and break into after Conditts vehicle was pulled over. They went to the passenger side instead of the driver side, if they went to the drivers side they would have been dead from the blast too since the bomb was obviously placed on that side. his parents weren't just low level employees of Amway, they traveled around giving lectures and hosting meetings and such. The Guyana ties are very interesting to say the least, so is the church ties. The kid was defiantly a patsy. A 23 year old home schooled kid who didn't know anything about the world since he was "sheltered" from it. Obviously he was very naive to say the least.

I thought it was hilarious that the cops opened fire on the car "after" it blew up.

There was a lot of strangeness going on in that short video clip. i would like to see more of it, I'm sure it was edited for public consumption.

Yep. Margerie Diehl I believe. I remember that because the last name Diehl came up researching the SOS in New York. Margerie was involved in illegal abortion rackets in New York. I doubt there was any relation, but I remember wondering at the time. The shame is we've only heard that story coming from the detective that worked the case. I'd love to read all their files on that case.

I don't watch much television, mostly just read some on my free time. The only shows I do watch are documentaries. Another documentary that left me wondering was the one about the McDonalds massacre.

Honestly I'm not sure how John Diel/Diehl spelled his last name. Jimmy Breslin spelled it Diehl as did other journalists. July 1 1999 Los Angeles times article "horror of Sam"
"The nights were long and great and then it all turned serious. On Jan. 29, 1977, in the brick plaza in front of the Forest Hills Inn, Christine Freund, 26, sat in the car with her boyfriend, John Diehl, 30. They were about to go off after seeing a movie up the street and now a pudgy guy with a wool watch cap on ran up to the car and held a gun out in both hands and fired three shots through the passenger window and into Christine Freund’s head. She died. I lived four blocks from the shooting."
Maybe they were typos and meant Diel. Even if it were Diehl I doubt they were related. There's Diehls where I live in the Mid West. The chance they are related is really slim, but I've seen many "coincidences" throughout many different cases though.

Kinda like Fall City and Sterling in Lousville lol. That was our beer of choice back in 1999 and 2000. Especially since you could get a case for $4.99 lol. They both tasted like the aluminum can they were packaged in. My grandmother is German and made the best home brewed beer I've ever had, it tasted like Heinecken but better and a bit stronger. She also made GREAT wheat beer. When she passed away I got all her beer and wine making stuff. She brewed it in a 25 gallon stone crock, it has a cast iron stand with the heating element underneath. It's over a hundred years old for sure. I also have about 40 old 7 up bottles from the 50s that she always bottled it in. Man her wine was great too. She made grape and strawberry wine. I remember helping her press the grapes when I was a kid. Damn I miss granny lol

Another Presbyterian killer......."Yet, this attack at the Chabad of Poway synagogue in California stirred particular interest and questions among Christians since the suspect, 19-year-old John Earnest, was reported to belong to a Presbyterian church. In fact, he was apparently a member of a nearby congregation in my own denomination, the Orthodox Presbyterian Church (OPC"

There was another synagogue shooting in Pittsburgh exactly six month before the John Earnest shooting in which Robert Gregory Bowers shot 11 people one was a Mr. Rabinowitz who was a UPMC Pittsburgh surgeon.

Serial killer J.R. Robinson was Presbyterian as well. This guy was a piece of work, I read a book about him years ago. He took church money to fund all kinds of illegal businesses, like a "woman's shelter" where he picked a couple of his victims......"His neighbors knew J.R. as a successful businessman and entrepreneur, always talking of new ventures. He was a neighborhood activist, an officer of the residents’ association, and chairman of its rules committee. He was also a founding elder of the nearby Presbyterian Church."

Good God!
FWIW, the Orthodox Presbyterian Church was the forerunner of the neo-Calvinist Presbyterian Church in America. The only difference between them is narrow hair-splitting over organization, representation, and overseas mission work. Otherwise, their theology is identical--neo-Calvinist, with an orthodox emphasis on "election" as discussed in other threads relating to Arlis Perry.

The last fella Bowers was involved with a right wing call in radio show. I believe it claimed he was responsible for cataloging their audio on the Internet or something of the like.
