She compares her own attitude and that of other survivors of Rodney Alcala’s victims with that of Travis Alexander’s friends and relatives as they relentlessly pursue the ultimate penalty for Jodi Arias, and offers words of wisdom, from personal experience, about what they are setting themselves up for, logistically and psychologically.00:28:00Routing OutnoJill Parenteau,Rodney Alcala,Jodi Arias,Death Penalty,Legal definition of insanityRevenge to Ridiculousness: Healing Through the Absurd See introductory article http://babelbooth.com/2013/10/03/revenge-to-ridiculousness-healing-through-the-ahttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/routingout/2013/10/18/the-absurd-leading-the-absurdWomenhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/routingout/2013/10/18/the-absurd-leading-the-absurd/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/routingout/2013/10/18/the-absurd-leading-the-absurdFri, 18 Oct 2013 03:00:00 GMTThe Absurd Leading the AbsurdRevenge to Ridiculousness - Healing Through the Absurd See introductory article http://babelbooth.com/2013/10/03/revenge-to-ridiculousness-healing-through-the-absurd/ Part 5: The Absurd Leading the Absurd During the 30 years that elapsed between Jill Parenteau’s death and Rodney Alcala’s trial for her murder, her friend Nancy underwent a radical process of rethinking and healing, in great part as a result of Alcala’s highly-publicized cycle of convictions, appeals and over-turnings for the murder of 12-year-old Robin Samsoe. The culmination of this never-ending saga was a trial in 2010 that brought together all Alcala's California victims’ cases in an outrageously cruel, as well as hilariously absurd display of raw testimony, bizarre theatrics and nonsensical sentencing. 00:28:00Routing OutnoJill Parenteau,Rodney Alcala,Robin Samsoe,Tali Shapiro,Death PenaltyRevenge to Ridiculousness - Healing Through the Absurd See introductory article http://babelbooth.com/2013/10/03/revenge-to-ridiculousness-healing-through-the-http://www.blogtalkradio.com/routingout/2013/10/15/left-out-in-the-coldWomenhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/routingout/2013/10/15/left-out-in-the-cold/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/routingout/2013/10/15/left-out-in-the-coldTue, 15 Oct 2013 03:00:00 GMTLeft Out in the Cold Revenge to Ridiculousness: Healing Through the Absurd See introductory article: http://babelbooth.com/2013/10/03/revenge-to-ridiculousness-healing-through-the-absurd/ Part 4: Left Out in the Cold During the decades that followed Jill Parenteau’s death, after charges against Rodney Alcala for her murder had been dropped, her friend Nancy kept her memory alive for Jill’s declining mother. By the late 1990’s, twenty years after Jill was killed, DNA testing had become a routine part of crime investigation and was being used to solve cold cases where DNA samples had been preserved. As a result, Alcala was eventually linked to several murders of young women during the 1970’s. Nancy was to discover, however, that her friend’s case was not to be so straightforward.   00:25:00Routing OutnoJill Parenteau,Rodney Alcala,DNA testing,cold cases,serial killersRevenge to Ridiculousness: Healing Through the Absurd See introductory article: http://babelbooth.com/2013/10/03/revenge-to-ridiculousness-healing-through-thehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/routingout/2013/10/10/dating-games-dance-of-deathWomenhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/routingout/2013/10/10/dating-games-dance-of-death/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/routingout/2013/10/10/dating-games-dance-of-deathThu, 10 Oct 2013 03:00:00 GMTDating, Games & Dance of DeathRevenge to Ridiculousness: Healing Through the Absurd See introductory article  http://babelbooth.com/2013/10/03/revenge-to-ridiculousness-healing-through-the-absurd/ Part 3: Dating, Games & Dance of Death In the third part of Revenge to Ridiculousness Nancy tells us about the circumstances leading up to and around the death of her best friend, Jill Parenteau, who was murdered by serial killer Rodney Alcala in 1979. Alcala already had a conviction history of brutal assault on a child, but due to lack of victim testimony had received an extremely light sentence. He spent the best part of the 1970’s leaving a trail of victims in multiple states. Although Alcala was initially charged with Jill’s murder on the basis of circumstantial and blood-type evidence, the case was dismissed when he was charged with and later convicted for the more highly publicized murder of Robin Samsoe, a 12-year-old girl whom he murdered a few days after killing Jill. Jill’s and several other victims’ murders were to remain unresolved for another three decades.00:29:00Routing OutnoRodney Alcala,serial killers,Jill Parenteau,Robin Samsoe,child abuseRevenge to Ridiculousness: Healing Through the Absurd See introductory article  http://babelbooth.com/2013/10/03/revenge-to-ridiculousness-healing-through-the-http://www.blogtalkradio.com/routingout/2013/10/08/nowadays-your-kids-would-get-taken-awayWomenhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/routingout/2013/10/08/nowadays-your-kids-would-get-taken-away/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/routingout/2013/10/08/nowadays-your-kids-would-get-taken-awayTue, 08 Oct 2013 03:30:00 GMT“Nowadays Your Kids Would Get Taken Away….”Revenge to Ridiculousness: Healing Through the Absurd   See introductory article at: http://babelbooth.com/2013/10/03/revenge-to-ridiculousness-healing-through-the-absurd/ Part 2: “Nowadays Your Kids Would Get Taken Away….” In 1979 Nancy’s best friend, Jill Parenteau, was murdered by serial killer Rodney Alcala. In the second part of Revenge to Ridiculousness, Nancy and Pitchforks discuss the now inconceivable freedom and lack of supervision that kids had when she and Jill were growing up in Eagle Rock, CA. She reveals for the first time since Jill’s death how she herself once came close to horror, and how she was able to deal with it. Nancy describes Jill’s blossoming from an awkward child into a much sought-after teenager, and recounts some amusing anecdotes from their adolescence. 00:24:00Routing OutnoJill Parenteau,Rodney Alcala,Eagle Rock,serial killers,sexual abuseRevenge to Ridiculousness: Healing Through the Absurd   See introductory article at: http://babelbooth.com/2013/10/03/revenge-to-ridiculousness-healing-throughhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/routingout/2013/10/07/revenge-to-ridiculousness-just-missing-the-hippie-trainWomenhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/routingout/2013/10/07/revenge-to-ridiculousness-just-missing-the-hippie-train/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/routingout/2013/10/07/revenge-to-ridiculousness-just-missing-the-hippie-trainMon, 07 Oct 2013 03:00:00 GMTRevenge to Ridiculousness: Just Missing the Hippie TrainRevenge to Ridiculousness: Healing Through the Absurd See introductory article at: http://babelbooth.com/2013/10/03/revenge-to-ridiculousness-healing-through-the-absurd/                          Part 1: Just Missing the Hippie Train In 1979 Nancy's best childhood friend was murdered by a serial killer. This is the story of her journey to recovery. In this first interview Nancy describes her own cultural and geographical background, rooted in 60’s and 70’s California. She and Jill Parenteau, her best friend who was eventually murdered by serial killer, Rodney Alcala, were the generation of hippies’ younger siblings, aspiring to some of their freedoms but perhaps biting off more than they could chew in their attempts to separate from their parents’ still conservative values. Nancy’s own story is significant because she could just as easily have been one of the serial killer’s victims. Her life and the lives of the girls who were murdered by Rodney Alcala have many things in common, and it is through hearing about her passions, forays into independence, struggles, successes and failures that we can more fully appreciate the young lives that were so brutally ended, especially that of Jill Parenteau with whom Nancy shared so much. 00:24:00Routing OutnoJill Parenteau,1960s,1970s,California,Rodney AlcalaRevenge to Ridiculousness: Healing Through the Absurd See introductory article at: http://babelbooth.com/2013/10/03/revenge-to-ridiculousness-healing-through-thttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/routingout/2013/06/19/mexican-filly-syndromeReligionhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/routingout/2013/06/19/mexican-filly-syndrome/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/routingout/2013/06/19/mexican-filly-syndromeWed, 19 Jun 2013 03:00:00 GMTMexican Filly SyndromePitchforks talks with a Latina from a similar background to Jodi Arias about the ethnicity issues that may have impacted the Jodi Arias - Travis Alexander relationship.00:22:00Routing OutnoHispanic,Latina,racism,Jodi Arias,MormonPitchforks talks with a Latina from a similar background to Jodi Arias about the ethnicity issues that may have impacted the Jodi Arias - Travis Alexander relathttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/routingout/2013/05/22/gus-searcys-beastly-encountersLifestylehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/routingout/2013/05/22/gus-searcys-beastly-encounters/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/routingout/2013/05/22/gus-searcys-beastly-encountersWed, 22 May 2013 03:00:00 GMTGus Searcy's Beastly EncountersGus Searcy has had some dramatic relationships and run-ins with some rather curious creatures, and one might say that he is one cat with more than 9 lives.....00:22:00Routing Outnojeep,frisbie,sugar glider,buffalo,death defyingGus Searcy has had some dramatic relationships and run-ins with some rather curious creatures, and one might say that he is one cat with more than 9 lives.....http://www.blogtalkradio.com/routingout/2013/05/21/gus-searcy-modern-renaissance-manEntrepreneurhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/routingout/2013/05/21/gus-searcy-modern-renaissance-man/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/routingout/2013/05/21/gus-searcy-modern-renaissance-manTue, 21 May 2013 03:00:00 GMTGus Searcy: Modern Renaissance Man The fame, limelight and attention Gus Searcy has received for his participation in the Jodi Arias capital murder trial is pretty small fry compared to what else has occurred in his life!
