#33 The "Suicide": Part 2

In 1825, before the civil war and the emancipation proclamation, a 25-year-old black man named Andrew Williams bought land in the middle of Manhattan. The area was countryside at the time and offered a reprieve from the overcrowded and often dangerous city life of lower Manhattan.

"A rose can never be a sunflower, and a sunflower can never be a rose. All flowers are beautiful in their own way, and that’s like women too." -Miranda Kerr Lashaya had set the quote from the former Victoria Secret Angel on the top of her Facebook page in the winter of 2015…and it's still there today.  I don't know if Lashaya was the rose or the sunflower but her mother claims she brought life into any room she entered. She loved to learn and had a drive that would surely have carried her to success. But all that vanished one night along with Lashaya...     EVERYTHING TRUE CRIME GUYS:   https://linktr.ee/Truecrimeguysproductions Patreon.com/truecrimeguys Merch: truecrimeguys.threadless.com OhMyGaia.com Facebook Twitter/Instagram: @TrueCrimeGuys @AndImMichael @sandupodcast STICKERS CREEPER MERCH     Sources: https://youtu.be/a8scIC3PL0Q https://www.denverpost.com/2019/07/23/aurora-teen-lashaya-stine-missing-3-years-suspected-trafficking/ https://www.fbi.gov/wanted/kidnap/lashaya-stine https://denver.cbslocal.com/2021/07/15/lashaya-stine-missing-aurora-teen/ https://charleyproject.org/case/lashaya-nae-stine https://sites.psu.edu/onyxpassion/2021/03/12/the-case-of-lashaya-stine/ https://www.pollyklaas.org/missing-children/lashaya-stine/

Enos was not the first chimp in space, but he was the first to orbit the earth. Just months before Ham, the first chimp to go to space, was making headlines. Three months later, the first American appeared in suborbital flight. On May 5, 1961 Alan Sheperd became the first American to break through the earth's atmosphere and experience the vastness that is space. But by then, the Russian’s had now sent a man into orbit. So the celebration was short lived and the race was on! Now the question was, Can a human body withstand the effects of space orbit? Only one way to find out, we need a test subject, and what better than a chimpanzee? What could go wrong right? Well, there's a reason Enos didn't make it into your history books.   Patreon.com/sandupodcast EVERYTHING TRUE CRIME GUYS:   https://linktr.ee/Truecrimeguysproductions Patreon.com/truecrimeguys Merch: truecrimeguys.threadless.com OhMyGaia.com Facebook Twitter/Instagram: @TrueCrimeGuys @AndImMichael @sandupodcast STICKERS CREEPER MERCH   Sources: https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2011/11/the-horrible-thing-that-happened-to-enos-the-chimp-when-he-orbited-earth-50-years-ago/249241/ https://youtu.be/ctXO5uAPkyE original audio https://airandspace.si.edu/stories/editorial/enos-forgotten-chimp https://www.history.nasa.gov/SP-4201/ch12-7.htm https://science.ksc.nasa.gov/history/mercury/ma-5/ma-5.html https://lsda.jsc.nasa.gov/Mission/miss/165#:~:text=The%20flight%20of%20Mercury%2DAtlas,two%20orbits%20of%20the%20earth. https://www.inverse.com/science/enos-the-chimpanzee-nasa
