Lisa Stover was murdered inside her apartment in the Rochester Borough of Beaver County, Pennsylvania on October 27th, 2016.
Most of that day was an entirely typical day for the 30-year-old woman. She attended college courses in the late afternoon/early evening. Meanwhile, her two sons were with their father at a friend's residence located near Lisa's apartment building.
Lisa arrived home from her classes around 6:00 PM. Shortly thereafter, she sent a text to her ex-boyfriend Mark Yaros, saying she was ready for him to bring her sons to her place. When Yaros and the children arrived approximately 15 minutes later, Lisa was found in her bed, covered in blood. She was taken to a hospital, where she succumbed to her injuries a short time later.
An autopsy determined that Lisa had been shot and brutally bludgeoned to death. To this day, a motive for her killing remains unknown. Lisa was reportedly not sexually assaulted during this attack. There were no signs of forced entry at her apartment, nor were any items of value missing/stolen from the residence.
Lisa's apartment building was secure, so visitors to the building had to be let inside. Additionally, the door to Lisa's unit itself was locked when Yaros and her sons arrived. Yaros told reporters that he "forced his way in" to the apartment before finding Lisa's body.
With all of this in mind, it seems likely that Lisa was killed by somebody she let into her apartment herself. Police initially had a potential suspect: a person in a hooded sweatshirt who was seen running away from the building shortly before Lisa was found. Said person was eventually identified and passed a polygraph related to the case.
To this day, there are many unanswered questions about Lisa's death. A murder weapon has never been found. In May 2023, it was reported that police were beginning to narrow down their list of suspects. However, no arrests have been made in Lisa's case.
There is a monetary reward available for anyone with information that could lead to Lisa's killer(s). If you have any information that could help the investigation, please submit a tip.

Why was Joe Bettles bludgeoned to death on the Las Vegas Strip?
Las Vegas police are hoping newly released video will help solve the unsolved 2021 murder of 42-year-old Joseph Bettles on the Las Vegas Strip. The surveillance footage shows Bettles being brutally beaten by an unidentified man on the morning of December 31, 2021 at the corner of Las Vegas Boulevard and Flamingo Road.
The video depicts Bettles running up to the suspect, who then shoves Bettles onto a divider. However, the attack escalates as the man is seen kicking Bettles in the face and stomping on his head multiple times. Bettles was taken to the hospital where he died several days later from blunt force trauma.
Detective Lawrence Gilbert expressed shock that the daylight attack occurred so publicly on the Strip without any bystanders intervening. He said identifying the suspect has proven difficult as the killing happened during the Covid pandemic when mask-wearing was prevalent.
However, police are hoping the suspect's unique hairstyle of dark hair on top with blonde hair or a ponytail in the back could provide leads. He was also wearing a distinct sweatshirt sold in Beaver, Utah. Gilbert believes the fatal beating may have been retaliation if the suspect felt disrespected or threatened by Bettles.
Over two years later, the shocking video showing the suspect's face is the key evidence that could solve Bettles' murder. Police urge anyone who recognizes the individual to come forward anonymously through Crime Stoppers to provide answers for the victim's family. A reward is offered for information leading to an arrest.

GET TO KNOW THE MUN.
what’s your phone wallpaper : I have separate pictures for the lock screen and home screen. The first one is of Ankha but the second is of Blue and Harley in my old apartment back in 2021. It was the only decent picture I have of those two together without them trying to kill each other. Harley looks quite offended that Blue is near her in this.
last song you listened to : Le Dragon De Noz Art by Stone Age
currently reading : Development and Dissemination of a Strengths-Based Indigenous Children's Storybook: “Our Smallest Warriors, Our Strongest Medicine: Overcoming COVID-19" - One of the many journal articles I'm reading for school and work.
last movie: M3gan
last show : The Office
what are you wearing right now : Black sweatpants and light blue t-shirt. Also wearing a navy sweatshirt because it’s kind of chilly in my place.
piercings / tattoos? : I have one piercing on each ear lobe. I used to have piercings elsewhere like studs on the side of the nose, Monroe piercing (a kind of lip piercing meant to look like a beauty mark), and ear cartilage piercings. I took them off except the ear lobe piercings years ago, but if I still have them, then I would have to take them off because of work.
I have several tattoos though. I have moon phases running down my spine with a purple and blue watercolor background and black stars. I also have a stylized jaguar with a moon behind it on my left shoulder blade. This matches my twin sister's tattoo but hers has a sun instead of a moon. My left forearm also has a purple crystal wrapped with vines and pink flowers. There are small purple and black stars above the right collarbone. I had several black and purple stars on my right upper arm, but I have a half sleeve of flowers to cover it up since I always wanted floral sleeve. I need to get it colored in though. It's just I haven't done it yet because it can get expensive.
The studio I go to now charges about $150 an hour, so I can't get it colored right away. The price is typical for most tattoo studios and the artists deserve that for all the hard work they put into the tattoos. Also debating on changing artist or studio since I haven't really clicked with my current artist in the past three appointments. I would love to go back to an Indigenous studio like I did in ND. I would like to get a couple more tats after the sleeve.
glasses ? contacts? : Glasses. I struggle with contacts because of how sensitive my eyes can be. I have tried with contacts for years but they never work out.
last thing you ate? : Indian taco (it's also called by other names like Dakota taco. It's basically a taco but instead of a shell or tortilla, it's on fry bread.)
favorite color(s) : Black and purple
current obsession : Right now, trying to get my last paper done and work towards prepping for comps and dissertation.
do you have a crush right now? : I have crushes but nothing serious. Mainly platonic crushes. That is all I can say about that.
favourite fictional character : I have a lot of favorites like my friends' OCs, Usagi from Sailor Moon since childhood, Yugi Moutou because childhood, Melfina from Outlaw Star, Pip Bernadotte from Hellsing, Seras Victoria from Hellsing, Guts from Berserk, Puck from Beserk, Casca from Berserk, Ranni from Elden Ring, Roxanne Wolf and Chica from FNAF, Micheal Myers, Jason Voorhes, Buc-ee the beaver (don't know if mascots count)

The art of being FLI
New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/the-art-of-being-fli/
The art of being FLI
When you walk through Memorial Lobby (better known as Lobby 10), you never know what you might find. The space has long been a campus hub for any manner of activities — from students tabling for their organizations and the iconic glass pumpkin sale to the MIT Juggling Club practicing their craft.
On a sunny, crisp Wednesday in November, passersby likely saw a sea of students affiliated with MIT’s First Generation/Low Income (FLI) Program in Lobby 10 milling about in matching red sweatshirts. In addition to chatting and nibbling on cookies, many of them wrote down affirmations on envelope-sized cards, which were then displayed in the lobby and Infinite Corridor.
One read: When I need motivation, I remind myself… “I’ve gone a long way despite my FLI background.”
I am most proud of… “being able to join a community like FLI and meeting lifelong friends,” said another.
A third declared: My FLI affirmation is… “The past built you, everything converged to make you belong here.”
The affirmations were a powerful way to give voice to the students’ identity on the last day of the FLI Program’s Week of Celebration, timed to coincide with the National First Generation College Celebration on Nov. 8. (The date marks the anniversary of the signing of the Higher Education Act in 1965, which established federal financial aid programs.)
One of the goals of the week-long festivities was to raise awareness of the FLI experience. By that measure, the event in Lobby 10 was a big success. “I kept overhearing people say, “I didn’t know there were so many FLI students. I didn’t know this was that big of a deal at MIT,” says junior Kanokwon Tungkitkancharoen, executive director of the FLI Student Advisory Board. “Someone even posted on MIT Confessions about how happy they were to see so many people in the red FLI sweatshirts. I thought, ‘Wow, someone posted that? That tells me that people really felt something that day.’”
Uncovering the “hidden curriculum”
During the week’s activities, students had an opportunity to get to know FLI Program staff, enjoy goodies such as sushi or cupcakes, and learn about support resources and wellness strategies. They also received FLI swag, including stickers and the red sweatshirts, both of which feature the program’s new logo: Tim the Beaver launching a paper airplane.
The launch metaphor is fitting: The FLI Program is taking off in new directions and growing steadily. What began informally over a decade ago as the First Generation Project, with part-time assistance from one administrator, has become one of the cornerstones of the new Undergraduate Advising Center (UAC). “We are so excited to be building upon and expanding this program,” says Diep Luu, associate dean and director of the UAC. “About 18 percent of our undergraduates are first-gen students — the first in their family to go to college — and 25 percent are low-income. These cohorts overlap, as well; about 12 percent are both first-gen and low-income. So, this is sizable population that has specific needs and deserves our support.”
“MIT does a really great job at financial aid, because it meets 100 percent of financial need and its admissions is need-blind,” says Tungkitkancharoen. As a result, she adds, “There’s a lot of FLI students at MIT compared to schools of similar rigor. But just admitting is not enough. You have to provide resources to carry us through the institution.”
Oftentimes, FLI students have to navigate issues that they are less familiar or comfortable with than other students. Asal Vaghefzadeh, a junior and member of the FLI Advisory Board, notes that developing financial literacy and gaining career-related skills can be particularly challenging. “A lot of FLI students don’t have as much experience networking as other students do, or resources for networking, like family members or family friends,” she says.
In 2021, two Institute reports set in motion a concerted effort to improve the FLI experience. Task Force 2021 called for the implementation of a stronger undergraduate advising structure, where students are supported by a team of professional advisors that work with them from admission to graduation. The report acknowledged that “students arrive with varying previous experiences and levels of knowledge about how to fully access MIT’s considerable resources. What is sometimes called ‘the hidden curriculum’ of success needs to be uncovered and made available to every student regardless of their starting point.”
Meanwhile, the First Generation/Low Income Working Group (FGLIWG) identified many gaps in support for FLI undergraduate students, such the need for more career advising, opportunities for community-building, and help navigating MIT’s complex landscape of resources.
Promising growth potential
Armed with the reports’ findings and drawing on stakeholders’ ongoing input, the FLI Program is poised for growth. “We are currently embarking on a comprehensive listening tour and strategic review of the landscape, to ensure that our actions are informed by a deep understanding of the needs and aspirations of FLI students in four key areas, what we call our ‘pillars’ of FLI: community, academics, professional development, and advocacy,” says Sade Abraham, associate dean of advising and student belonging.
The UAC plans to add several full-time staff members to the FLI Program in the next few years. In the meantime, Abraham and her colleague Alex Hoyt, senior staff associate for advising and programming, are busy promoting resources and information through a weekly FLI newsletter and planning a lengthy docket of activities, including a monthly faculty lunch series, community dinners, wellness events, study breaks, outings, and academic and professional development opportunities. FLI student leaders are actively involved in the planning and also devote time to novel projects and ideas. For example, Vaghefzadeh is leading an effort to trace the FLI experience at MIT to raise visibility. “The goal is to have this concise and well-recorded history that people can see and interact with,” she says. Ultimately, she envisions presenting the information through a timeline and mini-exhibition outside Hayden Library.
One growth area for the program will be involving more FLI-identifying faculty. Ed Bertschinger, a professor of physics, has been engaged in FLI programming since 2013. As a former FLI student himself, he prefers to focus not on what these students lack but what they have — like “cultural capital,” as he puts it. “Community cultural wealth, including family relationships and traditions, are important for all students, yet they are rarely recognized in academic settings. FLI students have an incredible diversity culturally and demographically. The community they form, with help from MIT, helps each member achieve their full potential.”
Hoyt can see the downstream impact of that potential very clearly. “FLI students are often thoughtful about not only their own personal journey, but also the larger impact they can have as educational pioneers in their family and community. They’re passionate about leaving MIT as a better institution for the FLI community than when they entered, putting efforts into projects that will improve future FLI students’ MIT experience,” he says.
