Hypergraphia - how it saved a man from being convicted as a kidnapper and killer

Alright, it's me GingerKittie- Queen of the TL:dr content. This actually a true condition but I share it with your for your amusement. I have a sense of humor about my annoying hypergraphia. I admit that people text me "wyd" and then get a text the roughly the size of "war and peace" in return.
My long comments are actually partially due to a peculiar brain condition called "hypergraphia" (excessive writing) that is often found in those who have epilepsy and seizures. (yes, I know it is not a surprise to you that my brain is not normal).
So that is what hypergraphia is. It serves me well as a freelance writer. On the the next post to give you the murder story solved by hypergraphia.

As if a sporting event, I would like to set up a portable chair in casual attire and observe the activity.

So far - This feels like a poor attempt at setting up an alibi.

Is this a WYHI thread or what? I'm confused

Alvin and Virgini Ridley met and married in the 1960s. He was an odd man, reclusive but nice but also a bit paranoid.
He married Virgina and they settled at his family home (his parents were deceased). Virginia was also painfully shy, was embarrassed and scared of having a seizure in public so a private life suited her.
30 years after she was really last seen in public Alvin calls 911 from a pay phone to report in a monotone voice that he thinks she passed out. She is found deceased in her bed.
The "coroner" (an elected position with little skill needed) classifies it as murder and that Alvin kept Virginia prison in his basement for 30 years while torturing her before killing her.
(Coroner also admitted that she did not like Alvin, was scared of him and thought he was completely guilty). The town didnt like him much either because he was strange, no doubt about it.
But A lawyer name MCracken Poston took the case and knew he was gonna lose the case until he discovered decades of Virginia's writing (taped all over the walls of the house) detailing the most mundane happy things of life, meals they ate, what they watched on TV, wrote love notes to alvin and made it very clear she was never a captive in any way shape or form.
Virginia actually died of a seizure in her sleep, just like the Olympic athlete Flo-Jo (I think that is the name)

Sorry, it took me a bit to write up the murder case. YOu can actually see the case on youtube under "American Justice: Death in a small town" or on "Forensic Files" titled "Kill igraphy"

The crack team of homicide detectives didn't notice this?

LOL, but no. I don't talk a lot at all. My cell phone gets about 200 minutes or less use a month.
I am much like Virginia in the story above and only leave home about 1-2 times a month.

This was a small town, Ringold Ga. They thought they had a slam dunk. Alvin refused to let his lawyer in his pitiful house until shortly before the trial which is when Poston discovered them and got them into evidence.

Depends on how many contrails are in the sky, if YG has a phone stealing thoughts from her brain or if i am praying for an armadillo. I guess it's a tossup?
