Summer Shipp

Hello All,

We are quickly approaching December 8, which will be 2 years since that fateful day my Mother, Summer Shipp, vanished without a trace. I thank you for all your kindness, support, and prayers during this difficult time.

In honor of Summer Shipp, "Friends of Summer" (501(c)3 pending) will be joining forces with The "Achieve Foundation" (501(c)3) in order to raise awareness of Women's Self Protection Measures.

The "Achieve Foundation" (www.achievefoundation.com) will be conducting FREE self-defense training classes for women on Saturday & Sunday, December 9&10 from 8:00 a.m to 1:00 p.m at Screenland Theatre, 17th and Washington, KC, MO.

If you would like to attend, please be at Screenland Theatre between 8:00 a.m. & 10:00 a.m. on either day. The workshop will consist of 3-4 teams of trainers, each of which will be teaching a different technique of self-defense. You may stay and learn one technique or you may stay and learn as many different techniques as you wish. (You do not need to stay the entire duration)

Please help spread the word and invite your friends and family to attend! Or consider sending the office personnel. All are welcome!

Or if you would like to just drop by to show your support, please feel free to do so !! We would love to see you even if you do not wish to attend the workshop.

A flyer detailing the workshop will be sent soon.

Too often, women become the victims of violence because they have not been taught how to defend themselves. Many times, a small amount of training is all that is necessary to prevent some of the tragedies that befall women in vulnerable situations. Whether the danger comes from men or from women meaning harm to hapless victims, knowledge of self-defense can make an immediate difference and change the outcome of otherwise tragic circumstances.

If just one woman can benefit from the kind of knowledge and self-defense skills that can be acquired from proper training, this workshop will be worth it.

We hope to see you there. If you have any questions, please visit www.achievefoundation.com or www.friendsofsummer.com or call 816-623-3746.

Always hopeful,
Brandy Shipp

CA Jury Convicts Mario Garcia w/out Christie Wilson's Body

The jury found Mario Garcia GUILTY for the disappearance and murder of Christie Wilson who vanished on Oct. 5, 2005. Her body is still missing. Christie's mother tells me that they are still searching for Christie's body. Maybe now that this man has been convicted, he will reveal the location?


SACRAMENTO – Jurors on Tuesday convicted an Auburn man of murdering a woman who disappeared more than a year ago after the two were seen flirting at a Placer County casino.
The body of 27-year-old Christie Wilson has never been found. Mario Flavio Garcia was charged based on DNA evidence found in his car and a security videotape that showed him leaving the Thunder Valley Casino near Roseville with Wilson on Oct. 5, 2005.

Garcia, 54, faces life in prison without the possibility of parole.
Witnesses said he and Wilson gambled together and flirted much of the evening. But Garcia told jurors he drove home alone after walking the Sacramento woman to her car. He said Wilson was never in his vehicle.

Prosecution experts testified that hair and blood found in Garcia's car matched Wilson's DNA.

Garcia took the stand in his own defense to testify that he was not responsible for Wilson's disappearance. He said scratches on his chest came when he fell from a tree he was trimming on his property.

Placer County Deputy District Attorney Garen Horst told jurors the scratches were from Wilson's attempts to fight off her attacker.

Garcia's attorney, Ron Peters, said investigators ignored evidence in their rush to implicate Garcia, including a witness who testified that he may have seen Wilson alive the morning after she left the casino.

The case was tried in Sacramento County because of pretrial publicity in neighboring Placer County. Jurors took just more than a day to reach their verdict.
