It would appear that Lori's relationships with other people tend to be based on some concept of non-familial sisterhood. In other words she has this obsession with a female thinking of her as a sister and vice-versa. What that means to Lori is quite different to those of us that have sisters that are close to us. Most of us don't have the same relationship with our families that Lori has. Here's an interesting tidbit for those of you that don't know.
As I have said, I know that I've never had a conversation in person with Lori Jean LaFond. I know for some of you that is a big fat lie that Lori's told you. It is, however, the truth. Still, Lori has this kind of personality where she thinks everyone wants to know her. Whether that is true or not, I can still remember her telling people, very loudly, that she was "an only child" who had moved to California from Texas, Dallas specifically. The truth is that she has five or six brothers and sisters...a huge family of which she is the youngest. Lori was adamant, she was an only child.
So from the beginning, you can assume that Lori had problems with her brothers and sisters. I didn't see or hear from her very much during junior high school or high school, she had other people ambush me after her first four or five tries. Those were memorable for most people that saw them. She is loud, violent, hurtful, and thinks people are laughing at her. Most people I saw, couldn't speak afterwards. She wasn't what you would consider, socially responsible even then. Her mouth and that angry face were all people would remember.
Now, all these years later, Lori is obsessed with sisterhood.
It's true that everyone that I knew found out that Lori was a lesbian my first year of high school. I didn't care. She was weird and it had nothing to do with her loving someone. It had to do with how pre-planned, calculated, and abusive she was to a person she'd never met. Not one conversation and she came at me like an atomic bomb. We didn't even have any mutual friends by then. She was a druggie/promiscuous sophomore and I was a freshman with a father that had recently been fully acquitted of sexually assaulting a male student...something we now know Lori made up. The fact that she got caught in the girls' locker room hiding in the shadows and stealing women's underwear wasn't something that I hadn't heard of her doing to Bryan Anderson's girlfriend before when she worked at the pool for him on base. I knew she was strange, but that she liked girls was obvious.
She's kind of made that into something that, for me, it's not. I've already lived in San Diego's gay communities. For me, lesbian, is a compliment, for Lori, the source of some of her frustrations. Being a homophobic homosexual, like she is, causes her to look like a hypocrite. Unlike what Lori wants you all to believe, she is neither sexually fluid, nor does she have any attraction to me, gay or otherwise. She is a horrible over compensator of the truth. If she is horrible to gay men, that means she's a heterosexual right? Not in this day and age. Lori was known for being, as my friend Marc would tell you, "the easiest girl in school." She would apparently sleep with guys so that she could find out information about their girlfriends. That, I find to be very telling and part of who she still is now.
Those types of girls weren't really my friends and I was more interested in school and sports. Lori, on the other hand, was still interested in sex scandals and what she could force people to think. Not the truth, just Lori's version of the truth. This is a theme that would last until...well...let's face it, she still thinks that what she says is unquestionably the truth and she's going to beat that into your head! She honestly believes that she can nag her way into the truth. Just as the Chief of Police, Bryan Reyes if that's the case. How about Rae Fernandez? How about Nick Andre? Quite possibly the best person to find this out from would be Bryan Anderson, I'm not sure?
I can assure you of this. Bryan was no more her friend from high school than I was a friend of hers. He's completely the opposite of Lori. I could never understand why he would say that she was his friend. Oil and water. They don't mix. He's an altar boy, she's an aspiring porn director. Not the same. Drug addict, and a cop. Good vs. evil. Sometimes that relationship does happen, but this was a simple case of Lori being his across the street neighbor and not for very long. I'm pretty sure that Bryan's father still lives near Lori's mother. I'm also sure that both Lori's mother and Bryan's father would agree that Lori is the problem there.
Back to my point, however, it seems odd to me that back then having a sister, was the worst thing she could think of. She made herself an "only child" for god's sake. When you find out she has three other sisters and sister in law's...you get the impression that what she wants people to think isn't what is real. To Lori, a sister is like a slave. Someone to do her bidding for her with her victims' sisters and female family members. Avoiding the males whenever possible. After all, as Lori says, "A sister can always talk to another sister." That's such bullshit. It's a gender assumption that all women have a commonality when it comes to hating their brothers. Especially their gay brothers and 99% of the victims of Lori LaFond are gay males. My sister loves me. She doesn't hate me for being gay or having a boyfriend. She's met girlfriends and boyfriends over the years and she's nice and friendly to both. Not Lori though.
As a "sister" Lori thinks that she has some kind of right to get into my own personal business. She's contacted ex's both male and female with the assumption that bringing that kind of news to my real sister is "just something sisters do for each other." It's hardly the case. It was my brother in law that pointed that out to me long before Lori had him set up to be killed. Not every single sister wants to hear from their brother's rapist. If the shoe was on the other foot, would a brother entertain a call from his sister's rapist?
Once again the girls made the assumption that if a gay man was HIV positive, that it had to be because of his own behavior, not the behavior of a psychopath that got HIV when she was in high school and plotted her revenge on gay men by infecting them. It was a stereotypical response and it wouldn't fly these days. The girls relied on this, HIV and drugs, for gay men stereotype to make themselves appear to be friendly to my own sister and lots of others. You see, Lori's friend or whatever she is, is the kind of "sister" that can do that. She's been in college, she's been in a sorority, so her social norms are more developed that Lori's but then you realize that she ripped my sister off for Lori after knowing that Lori killed her husband (in a legal sense too) then stole my nieces' insurance money. So Missy is down for the sister-act as long as she doesn't have to think about it when other people are watching. That's what I've seen.
The "Sisters of Schadenfreude" are really the lesbian mafia of Palm Springs. They have reaped the benefits of hurting gay men because of a believed stereotype when even Missy has the HIV virus from Lori. I mean this is a person that can turn her "woman feelings" on and off like a switch. That's not what a pro-woman lesbian does. I've known lots of them. Whether a woman loves women or not, they all understand what it's like for a single mom who has lost the father of her children. For Missy? Not an issue. For Lori? She caused the death. She even had me shot at the year after that.
It's amazing to me to think that anyone that is around Lori still doesn't understand...you are the first people she will destroy. You won't make it. Helping her to hurt me is predictable as all get out. It's expected. It doesn't make it good or smart, it's just these girls have a reputation of never letting up because nobody has ever slammed their asses into a jail cell for it. Until that is done, the Joshua Tree Six will always push harder and harder for some Schadenfreude to make them feel better.
I think the thing to realize is that this game that the Palm Springs Police Department thinks is such a mystery to our community was already a failure here in 29 Palms with many of my friends. That Lori is at the helm screaming about this being "her father's invention" is clearly that warped sense of Lori blaming her father yet wanting the notoriety for a system that was clearly kept on board a military base for secrecy. She's a personality in a crime where personality isn't allowed. She wants to be a star in a world of espionage. You can't be both. Unfortunately for many of us, her need to be famous has now earned infamy a similar place. Jodi Arias watch out, here comes Lori LaFond. Unfortunately for Lori, Jodi is prettier, at least to the superficial. Lori is still, plain old Lori LaFond still telling stories and trying to hurt someone.
The other girls have their own issues, but mostly people like Lori tend to seek out people that will be manipulated...which is why you don't really see Missy hauling off and punching Lori in the face like they used to see in Cathedral City when Missy worked at the Gentlemen's Club. She's been manipulated as a manipulator, this happens with dueling psycho patients.
Lori is acting like she's in charge of some terrorist network that she can get away with, but the truth is that she needs to get caught to fulfill her dreams. After all, who is going to wipe her ass when she gets any older? It won't be her brother or Missy. She might as well go to prison.
