Who is Timothy Bindner?

Photo found on Google

Who is Timothy Bindner? Interesting question. Maybe Google can help answer that? I was surprised by what I found.

I listen when I can to podcasts while working. Some are photography, others involve true crime or even mystery. One such podcast I listened to this week moved me more than anything else I ever have heard in the past.

I scrolled through the Disturbed: True Horror Stories’ podcast, looking for catchy episode titles that caught my interest. Moving down the list, nothing really jumped out at me until like a ton of bricks on July 16, 2020 there was an episode titled ‘Who is Timothy Bindner?’

I immediately downloaded the episode and began listening. The 25 minute episode had me on edge. My name kept being said over and over. I learned I worked at a sewage plant, sent $50 to a list of different girls on their 14th birthday, and was a suspect in child abductions. I drove a blue van with pictures of young girls plastered inside, and that I helped police with the investigations. There was even a book written about it called Stalemate: A Shocking True Story of Child Abduction and Murder. “Timothy Bindner was the center of many investigations by police” was said as I listened. What?

Well, this is a true story, but it is not me. There is a Timothy Bindner in California that was suspected of a few child abductions and murders in the late 80s. I have only been to California once, and it was in 2005.

Pretty scary stuff, indeed. Hearing my name over and over and the things “I” was being accused of. Google your name. Heck, Google mine and read more about this. You never know what you may find or learn about your own name. This podcast truly scared me.

Until next time,

Mentor

  When my photography journey rekindled back in 2015 with a trip to Maine, I never knew how far I would come and how important pushing a button on a camera would be. I have come a long way, but still have so much more to learn. A mentor is described as an experienced and trusted adviser (noun) . Also, as someone who will advise or train (someone, especially a younger  colleague ) (verb). Wikipedia also states mentorship is the patronage, influence, guidance, or direction given by a mentor. A mentor is someone who teaches or gives help and advice to a less experienced and often younger person.  Since I have gotten more serious about my photography, I have been looking for a mentor that fits these categories listed above. Seeking guidance, I reached out to a handful of “professional” photographers to inquire about mentorship. I received no response from one person, another person casually mentioned that they rarely mentor, and a third person kindly explained that they ...

Somewhere I Belong

  Music is so powerful. It is an integral part of my life. It often helps me express my feelings that I cannot do otherwise in any form. Yesterday this happened to me once again. I drove to Curby, Indiana for my massage. It is a nice smooth drive west on interstate 64 to exit 92. With the temperature in the upper 70s and the sun shining brightly, I had all four windows down and my sunroof open. Cruising at 78mph, my playlist on shuffle and the radio turned up. We have all done this. I arrived at my massage location and as it begun, my massage therapist referenced my latest post tiled 3am . She, however, had a different take on it. She mentioned that she had read waking up at 3am consistently was because of anxiety or anger, not creativity. The CALM app states, “ The mind has a funny way of kicking into overdrive just when you need rest the most. Stress and anxiety can activate your body’s “fight or flight” response, making it hard to stay asleep . ” For me, waking up at 3am h...
