This morning the police in Orlando, Florida arrested Lisa Nowak, a renowned astronaut that was on the space shuttle mission last summer, operating the robotic arm in the cargo bay. Here is a woman who is a captain in the air force, married for 19 years, three children and seems to have a bright future ahead of her......but.....no.
She got in her car in Texas, drove 900 miles to Orlando to confront a woman named Coleen Shipman. Coleen Shipmen is the girl friend, of another astronaut named , Oefelein.. It seems that Lisa Nowak was "involved" with the Oefelein. in some romantic or sexual way. She found out he was dating this other woman and drove to "talk" to her. She found Colleen at the airport where she worked and sprayed pepper spray in her face. She called the police. Upon the arrival of the police, they found Lisa throwing away a bag of trash. In this bag were some very questionable items: A Bebe gun, a knife, a large hammer or mallet, rubber tubing, surgical gloves and some larger trash bags, $600 in cash. So they jailed her and are now trying to press more charges for attempted murder......
The thing is, her family and co-workers say she has never shown any signs of mental instability or problems in that area....what is going on? Is there something in the air? In the water?
The two parties, Shipman and Oefelein. have not made any statement....so stay tuned....
This one fits right in with my little motto: The strange, the weird, the unexplained.
