Fatal Attraction
ON May 30, 1992, Kristin Lardner, a 21 year old college student, was stalked and shot to death in Boston by her abusive former boyfriend, Michael Cartier, who then killed himself. Kristin's father, George Lardner Jr., an investigative reporter at The Washington Post, asked his editors to let him write about her case. Kristin's murder, and Mr. Lardner's reporting in The Post, spurred Massachusetts to toughen the judicial system's handling of batterers. "The Stalking of Kristin" entwines Mr. Lardner's Pulitzer Prize winning reportage on the case with the story of his daughter's life. The result, unfortunately, is a wobbly and at times tedious book, but the deadly negligence it exposes demands attention.
Michael Cartier had an extensive criminal record, including recent convictions for beating up a previous girlfriend, Rose Ryan, and torturing and killing a kitten he had given her. His phone calls to and harassment of Kristin violated his probation and the restraining order she had taken out against him. But, as Mr. Lardner reports, court officials, cartier love bracelet on sale replica without knowing these facts, made decisions that kept Cartier out of jail. His psychologist never knew about his jailhouse drug record and never saw his rap sheet. His probation officer didn't know Cartier was already on probation for beating up Ms. Ryan, who kept knives on her night stand in case he returned. Although knock off pink gold cartier love bracelet Kristin reported to the police that Cartier violated the restraining order, the information never reached the judge who made the decision to keep Cartier free just 11 days before he murdered her. A warrant for Cartier's arrest remained outstanding six months after his suicide.
Mr. Lardner is not just an investigative reporter; he is a man possessed. He talked to everyone with a detail to contribute, including Cartier's parents. He confronted one court official after another with specifics about their negligence, his unique dual role allowing him to act out the fantasy, shared by most crime victims, of shaking the system's bureaucrats by the collar until they understand the anguish they have caused. fake love bracelets cartier But the book suffers.
Mr. Lardner was obviously a loving father, but he frequently laments that he knew little about his daughter while knock off love bracelets cartier she was alive. He has corrected that deficiency now, and a good third of the book details Kristin's childhood, including the hospital where she was born, her third grade struggles with spelling, the various metamorphoses of her Mohawk haircut and her fatal attraction to bad men. He no doubt found it therapeutic to document his daughter's days, but Kristin's life is remarkable only in light of her death, and its description does not merit such length.
His understandable fury at Michael Cartier also serves the book poorly. Cartier has come to represent all batterers to Mr. Lardner, and I was often left wondering whether Mr. Lardner is applying the lessons of his daughter's murder more generally than is warranted. In his conclusion he tosses off insufficiently supported opinions on many aspects of crime prevention, from more police (unnecessary) to intervention after problem children are no longer little (futile).
MR. LARDNER'S main point deserves to ring out: the courts often fail to prevent and punish domestic violence. He describes how batterers think and how an intelligent and manipulative criminal like Cartier, who knew the justice system inside out, can peg exactly which buttons to push with the probation officers and mental health workers who evaluate him. Mr. Lardner shows that courts still do not treat violence against women with due seriousness.
But the book's most important lesson is that Kristin did everything right. Mr. Lardner refutes the widespread belief that the courts offer effective protection to battered women, and that only women who fail to report domestic violence or drop charges continue to fall victim. Unlike many battered women, Kristin was educated, sophisticated and free of the need to worry about children, with the time and resources to make the law work for her. Most important, she was a member of the class of people who believe the law when it promises to protect them. "The Stalking of Kristin" reveals the tragic error of that trust.classic imitation cartier leve necklace size you deserve to have Let's go comprehend concerning it the situation
