Vaguely based on the DNA conversations yesterday

Do you have any criminals in your family? How close were you to them?

So far as I know, no one I'm related to has gone to prison.

One of my cousins is in prison for murdering someone. He was always an aggressive asshole so it wasn't a huge shock to me.

One of my second cousins is, but I never met him.

Not a blood relative but my aunt's best friend's daughter was pardoned by Trump, which is at least as bad as what she went to prison for, frankly.

I personally have pirated a lot of media and once got a citation for reckless driving that I didn't deserve.

I’m the only one and I never got caught for anything. I was a drug addict and involved in a lot of shady shit aged 12-23 when I got clean. I also never did anything extreme like murder someone, but I did do things that would have caught a felony charge.

No one convicted. But my uncle should have been. He raped both his sisters when they were all kids. But everyone brushed it under the rug.

My half brother molested my two nieces when they were kids. He went to prison but was released this year. And my other half brother (and his family) are letting him live with them. They literally say my nieces are liars and he never did anything. Obviously, we don't talk to them anymore.

My mother told me a few years ago. It explains why my siblings and I were never allowed alone with him. But I hate his guts and she's forgiven him, and I don't get it at all.

Yeah, it's disappointing, horrifying and infuriating when nobody will rock the damn boat, not even to save and protect their most vulnerable.

There's at least one murderer, child abusers, those who have committed SA (including against children), and animal abusers. Though only the murderer was charged with anything and convicted. And given I knew all of this before DNA tests, I'm on the fence when it comes to taking one of those things.

I tend to only speak to one family member now.

I'm the only member of my family who did anything illegal and that was only smoking weed which isn't even illegal here in Calif anymore anyway.

Same!

I've done a bit of speeding. Never been caught, though.

I know a few of my elderly uncles drove home when they should have had a designated driver...in the 1980s.

Depends on what you mean by criminals. I had a great uncle who, during prohibition, was a bootlegger and rumrunner. The local sheriff knew and never arrested him, but he did tell him that they had put a lien on his house, so he never moved even though he wanted to. When he was in his 60s he finally decided to just pay the lien so he could move to the city and found out there never was a lien. The entire family teased him about it until the day he died. And again at the funeral. XD

Prohibition was such stupid legislation that I have immense respect for anybody who broke that law.

one of my favorite TV shows is Boardwalk Empire which dealt with that subject extensively.

Almost half the people who came to Australia in my family were convicts so

I have an ancestor from Ireland who stole a cow with her sister and mother to escape the famine and I adore that for her. What an Irish way to come out.

Yeah, there were a few Irish convicts in my maternal grandmother's family, and she lived long enough to see the culture shift from "never tell anyone" to people becoming proud of their history!

My dad was a schizophrenic drug addict and was arrested wearing body armor and carrying guns loaded with armor-piercing rounds. At least one of the guns was illegally modified to be fully automatic.

My parents farmed and sold weed in the 80s and apparently supplied some rock bands in LA for awhile.

My mom smuggled cocaine once.

My mom's dad raped all three of his children and went to jail in his 70s for trying to kidnap and rape his paper delivery boy.

My parents were the last known people to see a missing person alive. After my dad died I asked my mom if they'd killed him (because it was when they were weed farmers) and she said no, she thought one of the boyfriends/lovers of missing dude's wife (who'd been found dead years before with missing dude the prime suspect) had finally caught up with him. Still not sure she wasn't covering up for my dad, but they're both dead now so idk.

... I jaywalk sometimes, and I've made audio bootlegs of a couple musicals.

My cousin probably is. She is addict in some abusive relationships who is lying like breathing. I am not close to her. Her father (my uncle) also has addiction history and he had stolen things from our family. His father (my grandfather) was the worst - a cop.

TBH for me, it's more who in my family isn't somehow doing criminal things?

Re: Vaguely based on the DNA conversations yesterday

(Anonymous) 2024-04-12 10:58 am (UTC)(link)
On advice from my lawyer, I am going to not answer that question.

We have someone that had to flee a country because they were wanted. They came to America and started over. Which is hilarious to me because the family is very proud of him (go rebels against tyranny!) but they are also extreme Republicans against immigration and anti-protest etc.
