| Caitlan Coleman is speaking now |
Today was the second day of testimony by Caitlan Coleman in the trial of her estranged husband, Joshua Boyle. See the details here.
Joshua Boyle is the weird Muslim-obsessed self-described "pacifist Mennonite hippie-child" from rural Canada who took his very young and very pregnant American wife on a walking tour of Afghanistan several years ago. They and their children ending up staying in Afghanistan and Pakistan for the next five years as the involuntary guests of the Haqqani network until they were rescued by Pakistani forces in 2017. See this post about their return to Canada.
Caitlan Coleman was eerily silent when they returned, saying nothing in press interviews. That was a clue. A few months after they returned, Boyle was charged with 19 counts of abusing her. The charges include assault with a weapon, sexual assault, and forcible confinement. The abuse took place both in Afghanistan and in Canada.
Caitlan's testimony is devastating, and if Boyle has a defense I haven't seen it. I recall that he put off a distinctly creepy vibe when he spoke to the news media back in 2017, but I couldn't have guessed the half of it.

TSB: Do we have an award for the most corrupt state? I think Maryland has outdone itself again. gwb https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/baltimore-mayor-pugh-to-take-leave-of-absence-in-midst-of-healthy-holly-book-controversy/ar-BBVv7Q4?ocid=spartandhp (I'm starting work on a $5 self-published book tonite. Looks like Kaiser will buy just about anything.)
TSB: So far, the fine Mayor has earned $800,000 from her book on healthy eating. I've had no response from Kaiser-Permanente on my book: "How to Train Katz". gwb She also has a line of clothing for kids!! Being mayor of Baltimore must leave a lot of free time.
