Stanley Tippett to stay in jail

By GALEN EAGLE -- Sun Media

PETERBOROUGH -- The lawyer for accused kidnapper Stanley Tippett said outside the courthouse yesterday he doesn't intend for the trial to be conducted outside court.

"Mr. Tippett is not going to be tried in the press, in bedrooms or barrooms," lawyer Michael McLachlan said.

Asked whether he thought the publicity surrounding the case would affect Tippett's right to a fair trial, McLachlan responded sarcastically. "We're going to seek to have his trial held in Carrot River, Saskatchewan," he said. Tippett was arrested Aug. 6 after a 12-year-old girl was allegedly abducted in Peterborough's south end and sexually assaulted behind a school in Courtice, just east of Oshawa.

The family of the 12-year-old girl would not speak to reporters yesterday.

The girl's grandmother said Durham Regional Police have asked family members not to speak to the media.

Police in Peterborough said Tippett remains their key suspect in the case. "It's safe to say we're not looking at anyone else for this," Sgt. Dan Smith said

Why would you think that this story would be related to Mike Tippett? That's a fairly common last name in some areas.

OMG ... I just did a quick google on this person and got some very bad news ...

On the 12th of June, 1999, when a 15-year-old girl named Sharmini Anandavel disappeared, a neighbor of hers - Stanley Tippett - stood out as a suspect in the eyes of the police. Sharmini had driven off to start her first day at a new job with a telemarketing company. She told her parents that Stanley, that friendly guy who often took her and other kids swimming, had given her an application for the job. When she didn’t return home that night, her mother went to Stanley’s apartment to see if he knew where her new job was - but Stanley was gone. He had moved out of the apartment two weeks prior.

Police launched a manhunt, but had no luck in finding the girl. They did find an application for a company called “Metro Search Unit” in Sharmini’s bedroom, but that company didn’t exist…

Detectives searched Stanley Tippett’s car. They searched his new apartment. They interviewed him several times. Despite all this attention, Stanley insisted on his innocence, giving interviews to the media and complaining about how the police were treating him:
They’re just wasting their time and wasting taxpayers’ money.

The girl’s skeletal remains were found a little more than four months after her disappearance.

An examination of her remains revealed that she had been murdered, but there wasn’t enough evidence to charge anyone. Stanley Tippett went about his business.

In June of 2005, Stanley Tippett was convicted of harassing a 25-year-old female neighbor of his. He was given a suspended sentence.

On the 13th of October, 2005, Stanley approached a 21-year-old woman as she was standing in line to apply for a job at Wal-Mart. He told her that he was the manager of the local YMCA and was looking for potential employees. The YMCA was a good job, Stanley Tippett explained, paying $8 an hour and including health and dental benefits.
The next day, Stanley called her at home and invited her to come to his house to pick up a job application. She refused.

Two days later, the woman was in Taco Bell applying for a job when Stanley Tippett walked in and started to shout at her, confronting her about looking for work when he already had a job for her. He took her outside and gave her an application with a YMCA logo on it, then asked her for personal details, including her name, address and hobbies.

Three days later, the woman found a birthday card from Stanley Tippett at her front door.
Despite the really weird behavior of Mr. Tippett, the woman was generally positive about the whole situation.

For a few days.

Until she called the YMCA.

They set her straight, telling her that they hadn’t received an application, that there were no job openings there, and that they’d never heard of Stanley Tippett.

The woman called the police, who were there to arrest Stanley as he showed up at a planned meeting with his target. A police search of Stanley Tippett’s van turned up duct tape, rope, a jackknife, shears, measuring tape, orange pylons, a hammer and long plastic ties.

Interesting hobby there, Stanley.

Stanley Tippett was charged with criminal harassment and attempted kidnapping. He was convicted in December of that year and sentenced to two years in prison. At the sentencing, the judge said of Stanley Tippett: 'You are a stalker. You are a predator.'

It’s really too bad Stanley was a stalker and a predator with such a short sentence.
Stanley got out of prison and resumed his life.

Now, according to a neighbor of his, Stanley Tippett is married and has five children …

Normally, I am not in agreement  with the Chinese government, but in this case, as they would, I'd spend one bullet on this guy, and wrap it up ...

I like the quote by the lawyer:

"Mr. Tippett is not going to be tried in the press, in bedrooms or barrooms," lawyer Michael McLachlan said.

Thanks Barbara, AMy and Al, certainly makes one wonder how that lawyer sleeps at night, or if his friends even talk to him.

Sharmini and I were friends... we went to junior high school together just before she disappeared. This guy's been racking up charges since they found her remains; every once in awhile I google his name, and something new always comes up. I hope that dough-faced retard gets locked up for good.
