MAKING SENSE OF SOLSTICE DEATHS
By Fritz Springmeier
Summer Solstice brought us headlines from the CIA controlled ABC Houston channel named ABC13 about a shocking murder (or sacrifice?) of 5 children by their mother Andrea Pia Yates. On June 20, 2001, a thin woman with glasses and long brown hair at the tree-filled 900 block of Beachcomber Lane, in Clear Lake, TX called the Houston police to her nice upper middle class Spanish-style home so that she could show them that she had just murdered her five children. Three years previous to this almost to the day (June18, 1999), this same mother had attempted suicide with an overdose. She was an ex-nurse and a mother in her late 30's who home-schooled her children and took them on excursions. Her children were named after major biblical figures Mary (mother of Jesus), Noah, John, Paul and Luke. Andrea's husband Russell worked nearby at NASA's Johnson Space Center. He rushed home, but was blocked by police from going into his home.
Soon psychologists from NASA arrived to deal with the father of the dead children. Andrea's mother A.D. Kennedy and her brother Pat Kennedy are supportive of her after her arrest. Her husband is supportive of her too. He is quoted as saying while pointing to Andrea's picture, "The woman here is not the woman who killed my children." The explanation for this bizarre new moon crime is that she was suffering from postpartum depression. Flowers or donations for the memorial can be dropped off at 907 El Dorado, Clear Lake Flowers. Oh, compassionate Heavenly Father, there are many who mourn and hurt from this difficult event, receive the pain and confusion of those who need help. Help us to gain some wisdom from this sad event. The world is again confronted with a bizarre tragedy, this time a loving peaceful mother killing her sweet children. The neighbors are shocked. Her family is shocked. They are quoted as continuing to say that Andrea is a beautiful person. The world is shocked. And we are told that this is the result of postpartum depression.
Her lawyer is rumored to want to protect her using "insanity" as a defense. He stated on a show that Andrea thought her neighbor was an alien. The only one who seems to be saying "I told you so" is a well known occult psychic and Cabalist named Sollog. Sollog has been predicting "lines of tragedy". His earlier line of tragedy was locations just south of the 35th degree of latitude, and included the school stabbings near Osaka, Japan, the disco bombing in Tel Aviv, and the multiple school shootings in San Diego, CA. His more recent line of tragedy was to be tragedies just south of the 30th degree of latitude, and in line with this prediction have come the bizarre mass murder of the Nepalese royal family in Katmandu, Dale Earnhardt's death at Daytona Beach,FL, the 31 Allison, TX flood victims, and now the 5 child murders in Clear Lake. Of course, skeptics says Sollog's repeatedly accurate predictions are an unlucky coincidence.
Viewers of Fritz Lang's diabolical 1960 German movie "1,000 Eyes of Dr. Mabuse" might conclude that there might be something more sinister behind the accuracy of Sollog's predictions. It is fair to ask, is there something more sinister to the murder of these children? Certainly, the police in Lang's movie did when confronted with bizarre murders. The deaths of these five children certainly fits in well with several agendas that are currently being openly pushed by Big Brother. There are going to be two conflicting theories arising. One is that our governing authorities would never be behind something so heinous. The other is that the murder of these children fits in perfectly with Big Brother's campaign to enact current legislation that would give states custody of the majority of children within their jurisdictions.
There have been a flood of stories recently that raise serious questions as to whether any parents are fit to raise their own children. Fine, even if we are to admit that the murder helps the current campaign to strip parents of their legal rights in regards to children, that doesn't mean that our government would have the means to be involved in this murder. The idea of our government being involved seems far-fetched to those who haven't kept up with learning about the mind-control capabilities of our government. However, for those who have studied the mind-control of our government (especially what is documented and exposed in the three books that this reporter has written), they will see that the murder of five children by a mother is a classic example of mind-control. All the clues point to an occult-tainted mind-controlled murder. NASA is involved in mind-control. The behavior of the mother smacks of mind-control. Her confession was described as "zombie-like".
There have certainly been Yates that have been prominent in the occult world. Francis A. Yates is an occult authority. Giles Fonda Yates was a 33rd degree Freemason and the Sovereign Grand Inspector General of the Scottish Rites Supreme Council. While this has no direct bearing on this story, it does enhance the question, what kind of groups was this Yates' family historically associated with? Her maiden name was Kennedy. If one studies authoritative works on witchcraft, for instance, The Witches Way, p.269, you will learn that one of the advantages of witchcraft is that it is flexible in when it celebrates events. The Summer Solstice can be celebrated on several days. How appropriate for occultists that they can wake up and read about a mother sacrificing her children on June 21. Once again we have a murder that smacks of occultism, of mind-control and fits in with an agenda of those wanting to create an occult dictatorship over the world. Are we willing to honestly investigate this crime, or will we just passively accept the changes it will create in parents' rights?
Yates Sentenced to Life in Prison
Sat Mar 16, 2002
By PAM EASTON, Associated Press Writer
HOUSTON (AP) - A jury spared Andrea Yates' life Friday after prosecutors stopped short of demanding the death penalty for the tormented mother who drowned her five children in the bathtub.
Yates, 37, was sentenced to life in prison and will have to serve at least 40 years before she is eligible for parole.
The jury took just 35 minutes to bring an end to the case that had angered family members, women's groups and others who said prosecutors had shown no mercy in bringing a capital murder case against a mentally ill woman overwhelmed by the demands of motherhood.
"It would have been worse if she'd been given the death penalty, but not that much worse," said Yates' husband, Russell Yates. Referring to family members, he added: "Most of us were offended that she was even prosecuted."
He also lashed out at the medical system that treated his wife: "They miserably failed us."
Yates learned her fate with her attorney's arm around her. Dressed in a silk blouse and white sweater, she turned to her attorneys and smiled as she realized her life had been spared. She later looked back toward her mother and siblings as she was led out of the courtroom.
"She was trying to figure out what the verdict was," defense attorney Wendell Odom said. "I think Andrea is relieved, of course. But Andrea is not a vocal person. She is medicated."
The jury of eight women and four men took less than four hours to reject Yates' claim of insanity and convict her of murder Tuesday. It decided on her sentence even more quickly after prosecutors made a less-than-forceful push for the death penalty, offering no new evidence or witnesses during the penalty phase.
Afterward, prosecutor Joe Owmby said that he didn't think "the facts and the evidence warranted me recommending a death sentence in this case."
In her closing argument, prosecutor Kaylynn Williford told jurors that Yates' children "never had a chance and you need to think about those children." She called the crime "the ultimate betrayal of a mother to her children."
But Williford also said: "Whatever decision you make, the state will accept."
Defense attorneys pleaded for Yates' life, saying that she is no longer a danger and that she will be 77 before she becomes eligible for parole.
"She will live the rest of her life knowing what she's done," Odom told the jury. "When it comes to punishment, there can be no greater punishment."
The jury had only two choices: life in prison or a death by injection.
To impose the death penalty, the jury had to decide unanimously that Yates poses a continuing danger and that there were no mitigating circumstances against executing her. The jury answered no to the first question and therefore did not have to consider the second.
Afterward, at the hotel where they had been sequestered for four weeks, jurors refused to speak with reporters.
Texas is by far the nation's most active death penalty state, with 262 executions since 1982. Harris County, where the case was brought, has 157 convicted killers on death row, more than any other Texas county.
"We took no pleasure in prosecuting Mrs. Yates and we take no joy in this result," Owmby said. "What they came back with was supported by the evidence. I can't argue with their verdict."
He added: "Justice was done today."
The sentence ended a case that began last June 20, when a wet and bedraggled Yates called police to her home and told them she had drowned Noah, 7, John, 5, Paul, 3, Luke, 2, and 6-month-old Mary.
The four youngest children were found under a sheet in the bedroom; Noah, who tried to flee only to be dragged back into the bathroom, was found floating face down in the tub.
She later told a psychiatrist that Paul came in as she filled the bathtub with cold water and asked, '"Mommy, are we going to take a bath today?'"
Prosecutors put her on trial only for killing Noah, John and Mary; charges were not filed in the other deaths. This was done, prosecutors said Friday, in case Yates was acquitted and they needed grand jury subpoena power in gathering fresh evidence to prove she was sane.
At trial, Yates' lawyers, her husband and psychiatric experts argued that she suffered from severe postpartum depression and that she believed she had no choice but to kill her children to save them from the clutches of Satan.
According to testimony, Yates considered herself a bad mother. Well before the slayings, she had attempted suicide and had been hospitalized for depression and put on medication.
Prosecutors acknowledged she was mentally ill but argued that she could tell right from wrong and was thus not legally insane at the time of the killings.
Their decision to seek the death penalty stirred new debate over the legal standard for mental illness and whether postpartum depression is properly recognized and taken seriously. Before the trial, prosecutors said they would consider taking the death penalty off the table in exchange for a guilty plea.
After Friday's verdict, Williford denied making a less-than-passionate appeal for the death penalty in her closing argument: "I told the jury whatever they choose, whatever they decided to do, is their decision."
She also said: "Everyone is trying to make this a woman's issue or a political issue, but the issue to me is five dead children."
"None of those children chose to die, they fought for their lives and they need to be remembered appropriately," she said. "Someone can be mentally ill and know right from wrong. Someone can be mentally ill and still make choices."
Defense lawyer George Parnham said Yates wrote a letter to her family this week telling them she loved them "and she is sorry for the pain she has caused them."
"She regrets that this illness brought her to a place where she could kill her own children," Parnham said. In the letter, Yates describes each child and closes by thanking God for blessing her "with such a precious family."
Outside the courthouse, Russell Yates said his children "loved their mommy. I know they don't hold this against her."
"I'll always support Andrea. I believe in Andrea," he said. "She's the victim here not only of the medical community but also the justice system."
