Más Bonet de San Pedro (en su Mallorca natal, Bonet de Sant Pere), una de sus primeras grabaciones, "Volverá la Primavera", tema swing con hábil voz scat que me ha hecho recordar a los arranques de Alberto Pérez en La Mandrágora ("El Cromosoma").

Acabo de encontrar la famosa actuación de Javier Krahe, Joaquín Sabina y Pérez en el programa "Esta Noche". Hicieron a Dylan "con su bikini", repasaron las penas capitales, cantaron a una oveja, hablaron de Madrid, fueron todo el tiempo unos gilipollas, e invocaron viciosamente a Chicho... Sánchez Ferlosio.

En realidad, creo que el mérito de rescatar a Bonet de San Pedro no fue de La Mandrágora ni de la Mondragón y hay que atribuirlo a Jaume Sisa (the great Ricardo Solfa), que allá por las navidades de 1974, en pleno delirio progresivo y layetano, había creado la Orquesta Platería e intrepretado "Bajo el Cielo de Palma" en su álbum debut, ya en 1978.

En los 80s, cuando engulló a Sisa unos años, Solfa entonó "Carpintero, Carpintero" . Una pena esas intros torpemente mondragonianas del LP "Cuando Tú Seas Mayor", que afean el segundo de los tres bonitos álbumes que grabó. Abajo su relamido bolero "Delirios de Amor", que hace descojonarse de risa a una televidente. Solfa siempre se movió entre el homenaje y el trasnochado cachondeo.

Utter Nonce-sense

Utter Nonce-sense

You know when something bothers you and you cannot rest until you have worked it out? The question was this: why does Gil Carrillo focus on the 17th March ’85 murders of Dayle Okazaki and Tsai-Lian Yu so much? Why did those two crimes dominate the Netflix documentary’s first episode? Why does Carrillo emphasise these so much on crime podcasts? After all, they are the least ‘Night Stalkerish’ of all the crimes, with their simple hitman-style random shootings, without any gruesome aspects, satanism or even robbery.

The simple reason is that they – in Carrillo’s head at least – connect with a child abductor, snatching children in the San Gabriel Valley suburbs. Carrillo had shown the Maria Hernandez composite sketch to Anthony Romero, an investigating officer on the Yu case. Romero believed the hair was similar to the suspect in a different case he was working on – a paedophile who was snatching children from streets and homes.

Because the bullets used on both victims were .22 calibre, an absurd triangle was born: if Yu’s shooter was Okazaki’s shooter, and Okazaki’s shooter looked like the child molester, therefore the child molester was Yu’s shooter.

That is a massive leap of logic. Surely, Carrillo was not really reaching that much? There must have been something else. What could it be?

The documentary mentions (very briefly) that some Avia shoeprints were discovered at the location of a child abduction in Eagle Rock. Ahh, there we have it. It was those “rare” shoes that only one man in the whole of California could have owned. So, a paedophile incident was the first crime to feature the Avias, not the Zazzara murder scene.

Eight days after the Avia print appeared, on 28th March 1985, Vincent and Maxine Zazzara were brutally murdered in Whittier. Another Avia print showed up and Carrillo suffered from an acute bout of confirmation bias: his serial killer theory was cemented. It takes three murders to make a ‘serial killer’; this is to say, Gil Carrillo had already decided Okazaki and Yu were part of a serial killer’s spree before the third killing had even taken place.

Now Carrillo had created a hypothesis in which Yu’s killer used the same bullets on Okazaki –> Okazaki’s suspect has the same hair as the child abductor –> the child abductor wore Avias –> the child abductor butchered the Zazzaras. Boom! Carrillo, the newly promoted rookie homicide detective has a serial killer on his hands and if he catches him, glory will surely follow…

We must remind ourselves at this point, that two separate hitman attacks, a paedophile kidnapping situation and a violent double murder are very different crimes. There is no Modus Operandi here. There is no good reason to connect these attacks, regardless of a shoeprint and some bad line drawings.

Aside from the line drawings, how did the victims describe the child molester?

Below, is an LA Times report from 14th March 1985, three days before Okazaki and Yu were killed.

Oh…

From 20th March:

Below is from 29th March; a recap story, stating the abductions have happened four times, occurring on 25th February, 8th March, 11th March and 20th March.

As you can see, the police aren’t looking for anyone that looks like Richard Ramirez and neither composite looks like him. Furthermore, the two perjurers Jorge Gallegos Calderon and Joseph Duenas said Yu’s killer was short and Asian. In the Okazaki case, Maria Hernandez was unable to properly identify the gunman.

What Richard actually looked like in 1984-1985.

This is where it becomes more complicated. How on earth did these child abductions end up on Richard’s crime itinerary?!

The Netflix documentary states that Richard was pulled over by police after jumping a stop sign near the Glendale Freeway ramp. The officer had turned to retrieve his citation book, when Richard allegedly heard a police radio transmission about a car, like his, speeding away from a failed child abduction incident. Richard was said to have drawn a pentagram on the car and fled.

The documentary map animation tells viewers this happened in Eagle Rock, but curiously, unlike the other six separate child-related crimes, this particular aborted abduction attempt does not have its own corresponding newspaper article. The documentary shows a staged typewriter tapping out 10th June, but no such attack relating to 10th June can be found. The only mentions of a child abduction in Eagle Rock refer to 20th March – the one involving an Avia shoeprint. Why was this one in particular never reported by the press?

Nonetheless, the two detectives complain that weeks went by before they discovered ‘Richard Mena’, a man with dental problems had been in that car; the sun had melted away his fingerprints, destroying any proof that he had drawn a pentagram on the vehicle. It was around 9th July that the police visited Mena’s dentist and decided that their paedophile/murderer suspect was a now tall, Hispanic man with dark curly hair and bad teeth.

They call him “our guy” but how do they know this is their guy? A competent detective would hesitate at that and think, no, this tall, dark ‘Richard Mena’ man does not match the blonde, medium build, 5’9” paedophile. It is a false lead; the driver was not the abductor (if there ever was a 10th June attempt), he was in a common car, it must be a coincidence. There is no concrete proof that Richard ran away because of the radio transmission. Richard had served time for driving recklessly in a stolen car the previous December as ‘Richard Muñoz Moreno’, so of course he would run – why would he want to return to prison?

But this is a turning point: this is when the blonde paedophile fades away. Up until this point, there are unconnected attacks and suspects. You have the short Asian guy at Yu, the 5’10”-6’ light-skinned moustached man at Okazaki. If you include yet another different type of crime – Carol Kyle and Sophie Dickman’s rape-robberies, then Kyle had seen a 5’10”-6’ dark-haired man with straight white teeth and Dickman’s rapist was only 5’8”. These are clearly different suspects being conflated into one.

Then, on 20th July, aside from another brutal murder (the Kneidings), Somkid Khovananth, a survivor of another murder-rape-burglary, gives a suspect description. For the first time in the ‘Night Stalker’ incidents, someone reports a killer with bad, gapped teeth and curly hair. This is what the police had been hoping for – to link that driver with the killings on the basis of a common Toyota. Never mind the fact that – we must repeat this – this attacker does not match any previous descriptions or composites.

Richard Ramirez was out there, living in stolen cars, clumsily burgling in the afternoon, selling stolen goods in a pool hall by night and shooting up cocaine, completely oblivious to the fact he had been implicated in a whole range of different crimes, just because he was in the wrong car at the wrong place at the wrong time. All police needed was his real name.

On 8th August, another bad-toothed rapist-murderer-burglar struck. Sakina Abowath said he was blonde, did not have Richard’s slight Mexican accent, and initially described his front teeth as wide with no gaps, but modified her description after being asked about the Khovananth composite. Basically, the police forced the suspect to fit the ‘paedophile’ in the car.

It should be clear as day that this was not Richard. When six people have given different descriptions of their attacker, not even including the children and their adult witness, it is time to accept there are multiple suspects – which many police and criminal psychologists believed, later derided by Carrillo as underestimating him.

On 5th June, the San Gabriel Nonce struck again, this time in Rosemead. The 8-year-old girl was unable to give details, except that the paedophile was light-skinned. This may or may not have been the same man. A further kidnapping occurred on 27th June in Arcadia: the little girl from the documentary.

She has her own story covered here in the LA times. However, the girl’s description of the suspect is too short (5’7”) and too old (35-45) to be the noticeably tall, 25-year-old Richard and she only ever saw him in the dark. Despite stating that this suspect has dark hair, the police have told the media he sounds similar to the suspect in previous cases. He does not. This is because they have now decided to look for a dark-haired man. It is equally likely that this is a different paedophile altogether – there will be more than one paedophile in Los Angeles and Los Angeles County.

According to the LA Times, the abductor had given her a jacket and socks. Was the jacket ever linked to Richard? Probably not, as you never hear any more about it. However, the description she gives of the car is white and brown, similar to the car ‘Richard Mena’ was caught in. Richard Mena’s car was impounded, so perhaps the 10th June paedophile – if it really happened – was still abducting girls in his same car? (The March paedophile had been driving a VW Bug and an orange station wagon) Ultimately, the little girl identified Richard at the tainted line-up in which all witnesses were encouraged to pick the man whose face and head injury had been well-publicised – Richard Ramirez.

Now we have this situation: Okazaki shot –> Okazaki’s suspect has the same hair as the blonde paedophile –> the paedophile wore Avias –> an Avia-wearer butchered the Zazzaras –> Curly dark-haired man with bad teeth drove a stolen car near a paedophile location –> the paedophile has dark hair –> The driver was Richard Mena –> one survivor described a man with bad teeth and dark curly hair –> the paedophile-rapist-burglar-murderer must be Richard Mena.

(you may have to open these images in a new tab to read)

So how did it lead to actually finding Richard Ramirez, surely a [hypodermic] needle in the festering haystack of crime that is Los Angeles? There was a network of burglars and criminals who hung out at the Greyhound Bus Station, which for any police officer, is a promising place to start. By late August the net was closing in on Richard, and informants – from this very set of people – were starting to link the Khovananth composite sketch to Richard on the basis of curly hair and broken teeth. The media was also lying that all victims had seen a man fitting this description too. It is so blatantly untrue; it is painful to read.

An easier way of looking at this is to examine the composite sketches. From left to right: Paedophile, Okazaki’s killer, Kyle’s rapist, Khovananth’s rapist and finally from the documentary, a weird merge between them all.

The hair is swept to the side to link it to Kyle and the lips have been made bigger when it became known that Richard had full lips, which apparently no victims noticed. The drawing of the teeth can be seen blurred out next to it.

This is why you then had Richard’s fellow criminals – potential suspects covering their own backs, like Jesse Perez. Add a financial incentive, and it was easy for the police to make Richard their prime suspect. Richard was on a pretty low rung of the criminal hierarchy there, and due to his lack of burglary skills and impulsivity (more on that later), he was expendable; a liability. Then finally, Felipe Solano had several stashes of stolen property, clearly from all the other suspects as well as Richard, but nobody was ever able to prove the chain of custody of any item and none of these people were adequately investigated because Richard had already been selected as the Night Stalker.

For the record, Richard’s fingerprints were never found on any of the items. And nobody has ever been able to prove he owned a pair of Avias.

Here are all the links to the victims and Felipe Solano.

Open the image in a new tab – it’s a big file)

As you can see at the bottom of this trusty MS Paint flow chart, the Orange County attack has been included. The documentary tells us that a prowler in Orange County drove an orange station wagon, seen by a boy, who received a reward. Because two of Richard’s fellow burglars mentioned him driving one, and also one of the child abductees was taken in an orange car, this formed yet another puzzle piece for the detectives. They completely ignore that same victim’s physical description of the paedophile, and the fact the Orange County boy did not clearly see the prowler’s face, because it did not matter anymore – they had chosen Richard.

The documentary claims that Richard left a latent fingerprint on an orange Toyota which then connected him to the 1984 murder of Jennie Vincow.

As you can see, three of the cases (not including a San Francisco allegation) have a satanic aspect which linked otherwise unrelated crimes to Richard. But the car fingerprint melted away, and Abowath did not report the satanism part in her initial police interview, so that leaves us with just one case (Bell and Lang) that demonstrates that a Satanist could be involved.

To return once again to the child abduction cases, Richard was initially charged with them, but they were dropped. The prosecution claimed it was because it would be too harrowing for a child to relive their trauma. The defence claimed the child cases were pinned on him in order to force Richard to talk. The police knew they lacked evidence for such charges, but they tried to emotionally blackmail him. Instead, they tenuously connected the Okazaki/Yu .22 bullets to the Kneiding incident. This is also the reason why an ‘Uncharged Incident’ is repeatedly referred to in the Petition: it should not be admissible as he was not charged for it, but the prosecution claimed that both Richard’s fingerprint and an Avia print appeared at a Monrovia burglary, in which the victim, Clara Hadsall had conveniently passed away before Richard was imprisoned, so there was nobody left to question – police could have simply made up a burglary case because they could no longer use the children.

Now you know why Carrillo focuses on Okazaki and Yu so much – it was the paedophile and his Avias. He grasped this idea with both hands and is still holding onto it as if it is his pension (which his ‘Killer Catcher’ fame technically is) – but the allegation that Richard Ramirez was the San Gabriel Nonce as well as the Night Stalker is utterly ridiculous. How can anybody think a man who cannot even create an alias without using his own names was ever a criminal mastermind?

Souvenir (2019)

Whether you want a family or not, eventually, propagating the species will become an all-consuming obsession - even if it's only for a moment. Marvelously performed, often upsetting and full of surprises, 2019's Souvenir forces you to pause and think about what starting a family means and what price you'd paid to have one.

Desperate for money, Isabel (Paulina Gaitan) has rented her womb to Sara (Yurira del Valle) and Joaquín (Flavio Medina). She’s pregnant and carrying their child - something they will not let her forget. When she stumbles upon her old university professor, Bruno (Marco Pérez), and begins a relationship with him, we slowly learn why she’s so determined to uphold her half of the bargain.

To fully understand why this film is great, you need to know a bit more about the characters and how they tie to the central theme of children. Years ago, Bruno’s marriage fell apart because his wife wanted children. He didn’t and got a vasectomy behind her back. He’s the direct opposite of Sara and Joaquín, who have tried every conventional manner of getting pregnant and are now getting someone else to do it for them. They may be paying Isabel but labor’s not easy and if she wants to see the child she brings into the world, it won’t be an option. She’s being compensated, but the couple act as if they own her. She can’t go out on a date without being reprimanded and they scrutinize everything about her, including the maternity specialists she visits. Isabel puts up with it all. Why? it’s again related to the family she wants to have. All of these different pieces all clearly belong together but how they fit is impossible to understand until a key point when the world gets flipped upside down. From a new angle, you see the whole picture and it makes your jaw drop.

The more you learn about the characters, the more everything makes sense, the more questions it raises and the less certain about it all you feel. You’re comfortable routing for Isabel. The others? Everyone has facets you can empathize with, while also revealing themselves to be capable of heartbreaking cruelty or coldness. You wouldn’t have that sort of reaction if the performances were so-so, or merely good. Even if you don’t speak Spanish, you can feel the vulnerability, the desperation in Paulina Gaitan’s performance. She’s so good the movie's worth seeing just for her. Everyone and the scenario feels so real you’ll wonder if it isn’t based on memoirs or pieced together from several real-life events.

Director Armond Cohen and writer Ricardo Aguado-Fentanes put forth a lot of topics in Souvenir. It may seem like too many at first but when you see how they all connect, you wouldn’t omit one if your life depended on it. This is an emotionally stacked 107 minutes that will stop you dead in your tracks. I wouldn’t call it fun but the writing and performances make it a rewarding experience.

Just to clarify today's race had...

- Issues with Gasly's car before the race even started (DNF)

- A safety car for Stroll. Hit the wall going around the corner, tire got fucked, into a different wall (DNF)

- Accidental early start for Lando which ended up screwing him over more than anything (but no penalty)

- Ocon taps Albon causing damage but both contiune

- Perez exits pits and almost crashed with Alonso, resulting in a 5 second penalty for unsafe release

- Magnussen 10 second penalty for leaving the track and going up a place

- Ricardo spin on track but contiunes

- "EAT SLEEP WIN REPEAT MAX WINS THE GRANDPRIX"

- Oliver Bearman getting points on his F1 debut race

- Norris leads the pack for like 7 laps before ending in 8th

Not the craziest race but still wtf

“Sergio Perez will remain a Formula One driver beyond the summer break and until the end of the year, Red Bull confirmed on Monday.

The shock decision was announced by Horner to the Red Bull factory on Monday, sources confirmed to ESPN.”

Full Article Here

WHY DO THIS? What is the point? The team must think they’re just fucked from car development either way. This feels like a bad sign.

There were no reports on his future for the 2025 season. At the moment I would assume that he has the seat.

The focus has now shifted to the junior Red Bull team where Daniel Ricciardo has a unconfirmed seat. The article talks about how he is going to be defending again Liam Lawson. It is unsure whether Ricardo will finish out the 2024 season or if he’ll be replaced by the reserve driver. I think his seat is safe for the remainder of the year, but I can’t say whether he will be resigned or not. The market is clearly not something I can predict after the news with Perez.
