    Dyleski enters plea

    Dyleski pleads not guilty: (Log in info)

    Nearly four weeks after his arrest, Scott Dyleski pleaded not guilty Wednesday to murder in the killing of Pamela Vitale, a former high-tech executive and the wife of a well-known local defense attorney.

    The 17-year-old, who has been charged as an adult in the crime, entered his plea as he stood in “the cage,” a metal and glass structure that is reserved for defendants in custody.

    The District Attorney’s Office has charged Dyleski with murder and assault with a deadly weapon. He faces up to 26 years to life in prison if convicted.

    Outside the courtroom Wednesday, three friends of Dyleski said they had showed up to support him. Immediately surrounded by cameras and reporters, they described him as kind and said they were shocked when they heard about his arrest.

  • Scott Dyleski Round Up

    Scott Dyleski Round Up

    I’m technically still on vacation, but I’m on some downtime right now, so I thought I’d post updates on the Scott Dyleski situation. One report states that Scott Dyleski went to his girlfriend’s to have sex after the murder. So if he did commit the murder of Pam Vitale that would go a long way in showing his callousness towards the crime.

    Then Scott Dyleski’s mother, Esther Fielding, was arrested on accessory to murder charges. Then the charges were dropped after Fielding agreed to testify against her son. Which leads me to believe that there must be something to the charges against Dyleski, since his own mother has agreed to truthfully testify against him.

    Another report states that one of Esther Fielding’s acquaintances, Kim Curiel, says that Scott Dyleski committed the murder because Dyleski’s 13-year-old border collie was struck and killed by a driver in the area and that Dyleski may have mistaken Pam Vitale for the driver that killed his dog. Even if that is true, that’s even worse than the marijuana equipment/stolen credit card allegations prosecutors are using. A mistaken identity revenge killing over a dog makes him an even more mentally disturbed and dangerous individual than the original accusation.

  • Evidence Found at Scott Dyleski’s home

    Evidence Found at Scott Dyleski’s home

    MORE DETAILS RELEASED IN VITALE CASE:

    I know I’m supposed to be on vacation, but I thought this was important…

    Detectives found a blood-stained glove in a vehicle parked in front of the home of Scott Dyleski, the 16-year-old charged with murder, court documents say.

    The county crime lab determined Oct. 17 that Vitale was stabbed and bludgeoned by somebody wearing gloves. Investigators found the glove after Dyleski’s arrest Oct. 19.

    The warrants say investigators also found clothes soaked in “red-tinted” water in the home of a neighbor, Gerald Wheeler. He and another neighbor, Joseph Lynch, gave investigators samples of their hair.

  • Pity the Nazi?

    Pity the Nazi?

    Victim called suspect ‘Nazi’:

    This is more information on the trial of Eric Schorling who is accused of stabbing Nicole Lambert in the back in the halls of Romeo High School in Michigan.

    This seriously can’t be the strategy the defense is using…

    A girl who was stabbed by her ex-boyfriend inside Romeo High School had teased him by calling him a “Nazi” due to his swastika tattoo.

    “You knew it bothered him, that’s why you called him a name, isn’t it?” said attorney Arthur Garton, who is representing Eric Schorling in his attempted-murder trial, to the victim, Nicole Lambert, on the stand in Macomb Circuit Court.

    “Yes,” Lambert, 17, testified.

    “(I) just teased him,” she replied to another question. “People knew he had a swastika tattoo.”

    So we’re supposed to feel sorry for him because Nicole Lambert called him a Nazi when he has a swastika tattoo. If the jackboot fits.

    First off, if you do consider yourself a Nazi, you’re one of the lowest forms of scum on the face of the planet, and you deserve any and all abuse that you get. Secondly, it’s still no reason to plunge a knife into the back of a girl you dated.

    Eric Schorling is obviously a dangerous and deranged individual and needs to be put away for the longest time before he hurts somebody else. And here’s why…

    A male Romeo High student said he saw Schorling “rapidly” move past him in the hallway and said, “Dude, I just f—— stabbed Nicole. I f—— stabbed Nicole. I stabbed her. I gotta go. I gotta get out of here.”

    If this jury doesn’t find Schorling guilty of attempted murder, then they’re f—— stupid.

  • Eric Schorling trial starts

    Eric Schorling trial starts

    Trial’s focus is teen’s intent in Romeo stabbing:

    Eric Schorling’s trial started yesterday. He is accused of stabbing Nicole Lambert in the back at Romeo High School in Michigan. Schorling’s attorney, Arthur Garton, is arguing that Schorling did not intend to kill Nicole…

    “He never had intent to kill her,” Schorling’s attorney, Arthur Garton, told the jury. “We’re conceding great bodily harm. He did everything he could to avoid this. (But) he acted impulsively. He thinks like a kid. He acts like a kid. And he reacted like a kid.”

    So let me get this straight. By plunging a kitchen knife into almost the dead center of her back meant he wasn’t trying to kill her? In what universe? Is this the best Mr. Garton could come up with? I hope they’re not paying him much. Let’s not forget that he escaped from juvenile detention in order to allegedly finish what he started. But I guess that was just to not kill her some more.

  • Scott Dyleski questions

    Scott Dyleski questions

    I have some questions in regard to Scott Dyleski…

    1. For those of you who say I’m condemning Scott Dyleski because he’s “different” then why are you defending him just because he’s “different”?
    2. More than one angst-ridden teen killer that I’ve discussed (Esmie Tseng, Jeff Weise, etc.) have had LiveJournals. I know that there was a fake MySpace attributed to Scott Dyleski, but I wonder if he had a LiveJournal. If anyone knows whether he did, please let me know. I wouldn’t mind the URL to the fake MySpace either.
  • Eric Schorling rejects plea

    Eric Schorling rejects plea

    High school stabbing suspect to fight charge:

    In an act of either defiance or stupidity, Eric Schorling, against the advice of his attorney, has opted to go to trial instead of pleading guilty to attempted murder in the stabbing of Nicole Lambert.

    Why is that a big deal? To refresh your memory, Eric Schorling bragged to people that he was going to stab his ex-girlfriend, Nicole Lambert. He then stabbed Nicole in the back in the halls of Romeo High School, barely missing her heart. He then bragged to people afterward that he stabbed Nicole. He had made a plea to serve six months, but then nullified that plea by escaping from Macomb County Juvenile Justice Center and telling people that he was going to finish the job he started.

    So instead of serving eight years on a guilty plea, he’s taking it to trial, where he could end up serving life in prison. The thing is, both families had agreed to the eight-year plea.

    According to the article, assistant prosecutor Steven Kaplan said that he’s going to try to garner sympathy from a jury. What possible sympathy could he get? He said he was going to stab Nicole. Stabbed her in front of at least one witness, bragged about it, then tried to escape detention to finish the job.

    With any luck, the only sympathy he’ll find is in the dictionary, and you know where that is, don’t you? Between shit and syphilis.

  • Long-distance healing

    Long-distance healing

    The other day I briefly touched on Scott Dyleski’s upbringing and family life.

    I had speculated that it sounded like he lived on some kind of commune with few rules or boundaries. I also mentioned that local media were saying that Scott Dyleski’s mom was “a long-distance healer who believes that DNA strands can be activated to alleviate disease”.

    If you wondered what that means, wonder no more. Steve Huff was kind enough to send me the link to Scott Dyleski’s mom’s commercial website. It may give somewhat of an insight into the family life of Scott Dyleski. Let me give you some choice quotes from the website…

    Activating the ten latent strands of DNA opens the door to self-healing and self-actualization. Core beliefs can come from many sources. Statements that we heard as children can stay with us for years. You’re lazy, selfish, useless, a failure. Beliefs held by our parents, grandparents back seven generations. Women must be subservient, money is bad, being overweight is safer, non-threatening and people will like me better. Core beliefs can be changed on four levels; programs can be rewritten. Emotional Gene Replacement enables us to actually replace genes that hold fears we have not only developed in our lifetime but, inherited from our ancestors. Gene Replacement occurs both through the Core belief work as well as through separate replacement for eliminating inherited conditions or diseases.

    Fears, blocks, programs, negative self-images can act as bars on a cage to keep us from fulfilling our full potential and living our dreams. Fears and blocks can numb our brain so that we can’t even see the bars. Negative programs can make us believe that we only deserve pain and illness, we aren’t worthy of health, joy, or love.

    It doesn’t say how DNA activation is achieved, but I wonder how they view the treatment of depression. I wonder if “long-distance healing” was used locally instead of legitimate professional help.

  • Scott Dyleski to be tried as adult

    Scott Dyleski to be tried as adult

    16-Year-Old Charged As Adult In Vitale Murder Case:

    A 16-year-old boy facing charges as an adult in the alleged murder of Pamela Vitale, the wife of prominent defense attorney Daniel Horowitz, was held in lieu of $1 million bail Friday.

    Scott Dyleski appeared briefly in a Contra Costa County courthouse for the first time since his arrest for allegedly beating Vitale to death in the hilltop estate where the couple were building their dream home in the wealthy suburb of Lafayette, about 20 miles east of San Francisco.

    If Dyleski is convicted of murder, he would face up to life in prison. He’s too young to face a possible death penalty.
