Ferguson found! Three others rescued - July 18 2022

Tuesday, April 22, 2014 Saint Paul, MN - (Pioneer Press) Scene of jubilation in Braham as Julie Ann Ferguson, who had been missing for three weeks, was returned to her parents alive. Work by the FBI, the BCA, and the Saint Paul police department not only rescued the U of M freshman, but also rescued three other women who had been imprisoned by a man tentatively identified as Garrett NMI Olsen, of Chisholm, MN in a catacomb under the Saint Paul Cathedral that he had built himself.

US Government Spokesperson Bethany Howell told reporters that BCA agent Roque Theotokopoulos, working in a task force with members of the FBI and the Saint Paul police department, found the entrance to Olsens underground catacomb in Boyd Park yesterday. The catacomb had been hand built by Olsen over a period of years, although it is speculated that Olsen worked in the Mesabi Iron Ore range mines where he learned his skill. Howell told reporters that Olsen had built cells for the women he kidnapped and had connected to the city sewer system, the cathedrals air system, and the cathedrals electrical system. When asked about the motive for Olsen, Howell said it was too early to speculate.

The three women have been identified as Edna Teresa Harvey, 31, of Eau Claire, Wisconsin, Jacqueline Ann Williamson, 33, of Union, California, and Chickie Goes Forward, a member of the Kainai First Nation in Alberta, Canada. Canadian authorities have been notified and RCMP officers are headed for the Twin Cities to help Ms. Goes Forward and the investigation.

Ms. Howell said that she could not divulge how Agent Theotokopoulos had found the catacomb, as it is in the midst of an investigation. Howell stated that Olsen had been killed while resisting arrest.

SPPD appoint new PR head - July 23 2022

April 25, 2014 the Saint Paul Policed Department announced today the hiring of Marla Wolffe as their new director of Public and Media Relations. Ms. Wolffe, a graduate of UC Berkeley, has been a long-form essayist with a history of participating on both national and international studies. Most recently, she became a member of the Writer's Guild in Los Angeles.

"I am delighted to start working with the Saint Paul Police Department," Ms. Wolffe said in the press release. "This is, to me, one of the most important realizations of a dream many of us have: finding your community and working with it."

The Saint Paul PD is facing scrutiny for its failure to detect the hidden catacombs of Garret Olsen, who had been keeping kidnapped women trapped in his torture chamber beneath Saint Pauls cathedral. A police insider denies this, as the plan to hire a new director was in place even before this shocking new development.

New Angel's Cradle Video - July 27 2022

A new video of the Angel's Cradle music band comes up on Youtube, Katiya Rasputina appearing on camera dressed in black jeans and tight sweater. Her band is around the stage and she is sitting on a tall stool, a guitar on her hands:

"Hello everyone, it's been a while since we did a cover but what better time to it as the twin cities get a small glimpse of hope amidst all the darkness?" A pause, "This one is for our brave survivors of terror and abuse, Julie Ann Ferguson, Edna Harvey, Jacqueline Ann Williamson and Chickie Goes Forward. Your story is one of courage." she sends a kiss to the camera and then Katiya's focus goes to the guitar.

Lights dim and then the music starts. Katiya's very particular version of "Running up that Hill" by Kate Bush. Hauntingly dark but with sparks of hope amidst it.
