I call me Bitch but Mom calls me Claire

A touch of paranoia keeps me safer than logic, she said. Suffocation and bleeding are fine so long as I’ve got the best view. I’ve travelled the longest distance but it wasn’t across the heart but the fall before and thereafter, where the weight of pain is fatter than any goddamn, fleshy fantasy. I’ve done words and drugs like fucking and dying. I know the mirror’s truth even when kissing the daemon’s lies. I’m the ultimate yo-yo girl, spinning in my head again, the fiction and the friction between the … Read the full article…

The Knysna Murders That Refuse to Die…

Mike Hampton Posted on by

In the small town of Knysna, there are 3 murders that refuse to die… Face-down in the dirt of St George’s Anglican Church’s garden, Jessica Wheeler (18) was suffocated to death. Less than a month later, Victoria Stadler (20) was strangled to death in the forest between the suburbs of Hornlee and Noetzie. Peter Mc Helm (48) was killed the same day as Stadler, also strangled, one kilometre away in the same forest. Alan D Elsdon is an ex-cop turned author who has investigated the cases for 3 years.

DA Opposes ‘Medical Marijuana Bill’

Mike Hampton Posted on by

Last month, two ladies contacted me in the hope that i could point them towards marijuana oil as they had relatives dying of cancer. They never got any and both those patients are now dead. Many of you will be aware, through similar family and friend experiences, that it’s a painful way to die. A large portion of this town seems to smoke marijuana and whether you agree with it or not, the battle to prevent weed-smoking is lost. Worse is that it has allowed the Knysna SAPS to up … Read the full article…

Crime Statistics: Knysna vs George vs Plett

Mike Hampton Posted on by

Download Democratic Alliance Corruption Document This is a crime comparison between three towns on the Garden Route that lie within 100km of each other. This is to prove that Knysna, one of South Africa’s most famous tourist and retirement towns, has a major crime problem that is being ignored. It’s a ticking time bomb made out of unemployment and drugs. Unaddressed, it can only explode. Knysna relies far too much on tourists so when anything negative such as crime is mentioned, citizens and politicians are likely to poo-pah it as … Read the full article…

Drugs: This Will Scare Your Kids!

Mike Hampton Posted on by

Yesterday, hours after i posted Trading Tik for Sex, someone who hadn’t read it told me that someone i used to work with had become a tik addict and committed suicide. Like many tragedies involving drugs in Knysna, it did not make the news. He was one of several white people i’ve known on the drug. I make the skin distinction because so many white people in Knysna don’t see it as their problem although rumours of tik abuse in the recent murder of Rosemary Theron raised eyebrows. I want … Read the full article…

Street Life of a Drug Addict

Mike Hampton Posted on by

As my regular readers will know, i’m deeply concerned and frustrated that Knysna Municipality is not prepared to tackles the dilemma of drugs head on. Mayor Georlene Wolmarans and Deputy Mayor Michelle Wasserman do not even talk about it publicly. It is eating up our beautiful town and spitting it out through crime. CRIME IS MASSIVELY on the increase. If any official report contradicts then it is a lie. This past weekend, my neighbours got robbed for the 7th time (i’ll write more about that and others soon). This emergency … Read the full article…
