UPDATE: Malaika Griffin has been captured - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Kane · 06-06-2005, 01:29 PM

Does anyone remember the case of Malaika Griffin? She was featured in a 2001 segment of Unsolved Mysteries. At the time, she was wanted for the 1999 murder of her neighbor Jason Horsely. Well, she's not wanted anymore. She has been captured after being profiled on America's Most Wanted this past Saturday (June 4). It was the eighth time that she was profiled on AMW! That may be a lot, but as the old saying goes, persistence pays.

Below are two links. One is a recent article on her capture, and the other is her UM profile (especially for those unfamiliar with the case).

It's about time. That totally made my day. I just saw that AMW last night on my tivo. That lady really hated white people. They've profiled their most wanted people so many times, I have no idea how they've managed to stay ahead of the law.

Good for her. That $#%&@!!! Like John Walsh said, "Chalk one up for the good guys!" I actually saw her profile this past weekend. Good work indeed.

I'm glad they caught her - I hope she gets put away for a very long time that is if she is not given the death penalty - Friggin Moron.

Later.

Looks like she should have stuck to fast food.

As the Unsolved Mysteries link indicated as a possibility, Griffin was working in the field of her education, for a biotechnology firm. They might not have nabbed her at Arby's.

I lived briefly in El Cajon in the late '80s. Capture might be a plus.

That was one of the most senseless and cowardly murders UM has ever profiled. Kudos to AMW for keeping it in focus and finding that fleshly waste.

I hadn't thought about that case in ages. But once I read about it, it all came back. That's why I'm so glad I've found this site.

U.M. Fanatic · 06-07-2005, 07:18 PM

Thank god they found this nutjob. No matter what Jason did to appease her, she would just keep escalating the threats and violence. What a totally senseless (if most aren't) murder.

I am touched and honored to read your posts regarding Malaika Griffin's capture. I didn't know people cared about Jason and what she did to him. I grew up with Jason and think of him as a brother, and I will never forget when everything happened (the 6 year anniversary just passed, and yesterday was his birthday) and the hell that Jason's family and friends went through. We were all notified yesterday that she was caught, and it has been incredible. I just want you all to know that Jason was a beautiful, wonderful person. He brought light into people's lives. I now live in Colorado, and I will follow the rest of what happens to his murderer. Thank you for remembering him and caring that his murderer was captured.

PerhapsItsYou · 06-08-2005, 08:36 AM

Thanks for sharing with us. You know the strongest memory I had was how Jason was portrayed as the kind of guy you would want as a friend or brother. Glad to hear that was accurate.

GOOD!

This woman has issues and what she did was not only cold-hearted, it was outrageous as well. To be filled with so much hate, it makes me wonder just how dangerous she truly is. If you have the nerve to actually shoot someone in cold blood like that, what other heinous acts are you capable of committing? She is a danger to society and who knows what else she had done while on the run.

Hand grenades, books about making bombs and causing destruction, rifles and hateful journal entries. She definitely isn't in her right mind.

jasimon1 · 06-08-2005, 03:28 PM

I saw this on AMW this past weekend too. I was shocked at what a total nut job this woman was. We think our neighbor is crazy because everytime we buy something, she runs out and buys the same thing (not little stuff, I'm talking furniture and major appliances). After watching this, I thanked my lucky stars!

Kane · 06-08-2005, 07:39 PM

Considering Malaika Griffin's radical views, and the fact that there were assorted weapons found in her house, I wonder if she was an Islamofascist in the making. In any case, I really think she needs to be converted to Christianity.

I never said that there have never been any crazy Christians. People can be crazy regardless of their religion.

But who knows? Maybe conversion to Christianity could help reduce Griffin's craziness.
