Post 847

Anthony Blamer, Michigan inmate 357636, born 1987, incarceration intake 2019, at age 32, earliest release date 08/08/2059 with full release on 08/08/2079

Homicide, Carry Concealed Weapon, Use of a Weapon on the Commission of a Felony, Concealing the Death of a Person, Mutilation of a Corpse

Prosecutors convinced the Muskegon County judge that Blamer shot Keenan multiple times in August 2017 at a Muskegon area car wash. Shortly after the shooting, Blamer was seen on security cameras at stores in Holton and near Fremont. One camera shows Blamer driving Keenan's white truck. Another shows Blamer buying a shovel, clothes and chain saw with cash Muskegon County Prosecutor D.J. Hilson says was taken from Keenan's pocket.

D'Anthony Keenan's mother reported her son missing to Muskegon Police on Aug. 4, 2017. The next day, police found Keenan's body without the head and hands along a two-track in the Manistee National Forest.

After Blamer was arrested he led police to locations where the missing body parts had been dumped.

Because investigators believe the dismemberment of Keenan's body took place in Newaygo County, a felony charge relating to that crime was not part of the trial in Muskegon County. The Newaygo Prosecutor will have to determine if that charge will go to trial, or be dropped given the long sentence imposed by the judge in Muskegon County.

During the trial, evidence included a cell phone text conversation between Blamer and Keenan that indicated the two arranged to meet at the car wash for a transaction. The evidence did not indicate what the two men were there to buy or sell.

Pando (Latin for "I spread")] is a clonal organism representing an individual male quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides) that spans 106 acres and is both the largest tree by weight and the largest tree by landmass, and is also the largest known aspen clone. Pando was identified as a single living organism because each of its stems possess identical genetic markers. Each of its estimated 47,000 stems (ramets) are generally connected by a massive interconnected root system that coordinates energy production, defense and regeneration across its expanse. Located in the Fremont River Ranger District of the Fishlake National Forest along the transition zone between of the Colorado Plateau and Basin and Range in south-central Utah, United States, Pando lives 0.43 miles west of Fish Lake, the largest natural mountain freshwater lake in Utah.

Los Padres National Forest, California.

This little traveled trail got me. I had a big loop I was trying and I just couldn't find my way through one part. Well past the halfway point, I had to turn around and head back the way I'd come. I came down the other way to see if I could figure it out. The place of confusion was only a few hundred feet long. I sorted it out, although I'm not sure I'd have been able to get through without having already seen the other side. From December 2014.
