The letter found in 2004 was spelled that way...tinsely and it appears the letter m crossed out twice. The guy that posted on your page goes by ........tinselym

I looked at the note again and you are correct...Aprils killer spells the name tinsely just like the poster claiming to be Aprils father. NOW, "friends of Tinsleys" say it is Mike, so are we to assume that "friends of Tinsleys" thinks Mike was involved? Or, does Mike not know how to spell his own name?

I'm sure the woman heard on the news that the perp was described as non African-American according to
witnesses, I just think that whoever this person was that approached her may have wanted to observe her daughter a little closer,the person may have just wanted to welcome this woman's daughter to Fairfield Elementary School and introduce himself as a parent and a Brownie Leader, it may have been an innocent gesture on his part, she was taken aback and her antennas went up, therefore, she may have sensed something about this little man as she calls him, for some reason only known to this woman she felt she would have to watch out for this man.

YES, we did discuss this incommode as possibly not being related...I'd like to know how old the man was at this time. He says he has daughters at the school as well

oops...meant to type children but was thinking of the article and typed daughters

Looking at the note again...I noticed the perp cannot spell victim so he scribbles the ending. In the real world this same person would do the same thing when writing, scribbling words he cannot spell

Well I wasn't accusing April's father of anything. The person who wrote on VG's web page claimed to be April's father and yes he spells his last name just like the NOTE writer spelled April's last name in 2004.
Whoever it was that posted on VG's page, being a stranger or April's father...needs to be examined.
It is awfully strange how that person spells Tinsely instead of Tinsley.

Must have been shocking to find out it WAS really Mike Tinsley, huh?

So is it him on that post or not? Nobody said it was...VG said "someone claiming to be". We don't know what April's father looks like but the guy that posted on VG's You Tube page has his picture on his profile and does spell his last name just like on the notes left in 2004. Very odd!

<quoted text>After reading through it is unclear if this man is Afro-American or not. It is unusual this man being a brownie leader and we had discussed this briefly, earlier in this thread.
I now wonder who he was?

No, he was not an African-American male. He was a male of child like statuque. A boyishness about him in appearance, soft spoken, quiet presence.

I am just going to point something out.
This man who goes by tinselym, who posted on Video Guy's YouTube page claiming to be April's father, has become a fan of a page associated with wrestling, 4 months ago. Someone at one time, had posted in here that April's parents only cared about wrestling and Nascar...if I remember correctly. So if that man tinselym really is April's father, then something is very wrong with the picture....(hence spelling "tinsely"). That is not a mistake in spelling, it was intentional.
Intentional just like the way the person wrote on the BARN & NOTES. Trying to act like they couldn't spell. Just like the idiot spelled "Aproil" at one time and then "April" at another.
VG, I think you need to report something.

VG and Koko
Who really posted that message claiming to be Michael Tinsley, you're right on whoever it was spelled it Tinsely exactly as it is spelled in the notes !! You know Michael Tinsley knows how to spell his last name, there is something fishy about that, need to find out if Mr. Tinsley posted the message or someone posted it on his behalf, or someone posted it without his knowledge, if someone
else posted that message its time to get some DNA testing happening.

Koko, I was not accusing you of accusing...it was "Friends of Tinsleys" that said it is Mike's profile.

Why is this new group that has entered our spear pointing to the Tinsleys??

I know VG....I was trying to tell that other person that your YouTube page had a message from someone Claiming to be Aprils father.....I know you weren't accusing me...lol
Maybe someone who claims to be a friend of the Tinsley's knows something.?

I have been considering why people in this neighborhood may think it was someone in the family…even Michael. They are judging on his reactions after Aprils death, judging on how they think he SHOULD react or how they think they would react.

First off there is no pattern as to how one reacts to such a horrible crime such as this, most everyone deals with a traumatic experience differently. It has been posted by others that they think it unusual that the Tinsleys left town and do not visit Aprils grave. I’m beginning to think they left town because of accusations that turned to threats. Though the community did help this family, but than to only have some of them turn on him must have been a double whammy…I’d of left too. You people who support Tommy seen what happened in this forum, I suggested and than pointed out how he could have been involved just as easily as anyone…Tommy left the room. Is this proof that Tommy was involved? I say NO! Much more proof is needed.

Motive! Where is Michaels motive? Lost his temper with her? She had done nothing wrong, they new where she was and she was not late coming home. There also would have had to have been a history of physical abuse towards April from Michael, and as best as I can tell there was none. Don’t forget that since most people are killed by someone they know the police know this too, and questioned this family extensively. Their whereabouts, any abuse reported about this child…ect. Where would he hide her body for three days??? The police were in his house, went through his auto, inspected his cloths…ect. How hard was Tommy and any other members of his family questioned, maybe an hour or two if that? Did the police check out his story with his employer, the Doctors and Nurses…and this was years after the crime.
I have read an account by a neighbor who witnessed Michaels reaction a day after April was found…his uncontrollable sobbing amongst other things. Sounds pretty authentic to me by someone who has no reason to lie or an agenda.

BTW…in regards to the post at my YT channel…why would Michael complain about me after I have championed and defended his reputation and those of his family throughout this forum thread?? Someone has and agenda weather it be not understanding the Tinsleys and their sorrow, or intentional misdirection to deflect investigation of a guilty party. This could have been going on back in 1988 as well.

Also...prove that Michael or RW were in Fort Wayne in the spring of 1990 and 2004.

That's sad because I bet that kid grew up angry.
I saw this before on his myspace page.
I think a lot of his anger came from growing up with angry parents. One can't blame them for being angry. I don't. But is still very sad.

Video Guy, it was said before that April played at her friends a lot to get away from home. I can almost bet it wasn't a pleasant environment. Neither parents had a job. It had to be hard. I have seen some of April's pictures and what I got from them was a sad little girl that looked as tho she needed love and attention. I am no professional, I could be wrong but I'm not the only one that thought that.
The paper I read where her father said there was no yelling before April went to play with her friends... also drew my attention. If you are in that surroundings every day, it's a natural defense...but if your not, then you'd never think to say it.

I think her abduction was either a random thing, some psycho out and about, or someone who knew the family. Something just not fitting.

Mildred Muhammad told Larry King that she wanted to get in bed with him so that she can help deal with her husband being a criminal. She had to go outside nude for 20 minutes to help make her children horny in order to make her children deal with the ordeal. At the center protesters Derick Lane and son Desmond decided to look at a few penthouse magazines and play with themselves in a ladie's bathroom to get help in dealing with the execution of Muhammad. Mildred asked Larry King for some head and want to get him in bed in order to deal with the loss of her husband. She wanted to check out Larry King's wet noodle. Conrad Johnson's son said that he can deal with things by masturbating in the closet while reading a playboy magazine. It is possible that Mildred will get depressed and commit suicide by hanging herself in the bathroom shower at home and the childrn will go out and commit crimes such as robbery and murder. Her hokey friends Derick Lane and son Desmond may overdose on sleeping pills and dring car antifreeze to commit suicide or go out and rob banks and burn the banks down and steal money. Mildred says that she needs to get in bed with white men like Donald Trump so she can be happy or Conrad Johnson's son will look as white women like Pamela Anderson while masterbating in the closet to deal with the loss of his father on the metrobus.
