GUILT BY ASSOCIATION?

Do you believe in guilt by association?  I certainly don’t believe in it absolutely.  But these old sayings persist because they have merit.

“You are known by the company you keep.”

“Tell me who your friends are and I’ll tell you who you are.”

“If you run with the wolves you’ll learn how to howl”

“Birds of a feather flock together”

As Colin Powell said

“Wise is the person who fortifies his life with the right friendships. If you run with
wolves, you will learn how to howl. But, if you associate with eagles, you
will learn how to soar to great heights.”
“A mirror reflects a man’s face, but what he is really like is shown by the
kind of friends he chooses.”

“The simple but true fact of life is that you become like those with whom you
closely associate – for the good and the bad.”

Note: Be not mistaken. This is applicable to family as well as friends.
Yes…do love, appreciate and be thankful for your family, for they will
always be your family no matter what. Just know that they are human first
and though they are family to you, they may be a friend to someone else and
will fit somewhere in the criteria above.

We don’t know much about Courtney Roberts mostly because Courtney has never chosen to speak out for Ayla.  Her friends are amazingly close mouthed.  I have never in 2+ years read a comment from one of her friends vouching for her character.

Can we tell anything about Courtney from the company she keeps?  The Coincidences post submitted by Anon might possibly tell us something about her character.

There seem to be a lot of Lamour’s and Robert’s who have had major run- ins with the law.  These are the people who Courtney grew up with and around.  These types of people are who guided her and shaped her future.

But we can’t pick our relatives; we’re born into the family and stuck with them.  As we grow older and realize the folly of their ways we can however continue to love them while we distance ourselves from them to protect ourselves and our families.

From the Coincidences post:

Sasha Lamour: arrested April 12, 2012,violating conditions of release, harassment by telephone, failure to appear. Facebook friends with Christopher Brichetto.  Related to Courtney and Briana.  Courtney and Sasha communicate regularly in social media.

Briana Lamour Roberts: arrested January 9, 2012, aggravated drug trafficking in oxycodone and cocaine. Head of operation Christopher Brichetto.

Christopher Brichetto: arrested January 18, 2013, unlawful trafficking Schedule D substances. Documents sealed?

Christopher Brichetto: civil contempt Feb. 6, 2013, refusing to testify before grand jury. Facebook friends with Natalie Kay Reisinger (Courtney and Briana’s sister), Russell Lamour, Jr., Joanna Lamour, Sasha Lamour, Hayden Lamour, and Shawn Lamour.  Facebook friend with Michael Leavitt (named in sealed indictment above); Leavitt also Facebook friends with Russell Lamour, Jr. and Shawn Lamour.

“Birds of a feather flock together”

Remember the quote above?

Note: Be not mistaken. This is applicable to family as well as friends.
Yes…do love, appreciate and be thankful for your family, for they will
always be your family no matter what. Just know that they are human first
and though they are family to you, they may be a friend to someone else and
will fit somewhere in the criteria above.

Yes they are family but the associations they have can have an impact on you.

She seems to have maintained her contact with these family members.  A lot, the majority, have an association with Chris Bruchetto.  Courtney apparently didn’t mind having a direct, non familial association with criminals either.

Courtney lived in the same building as her sister Briana.  Briana was dealing for Chris Brichetto.  Courtney was also friends with Chris Brichetto as evidenced by these old tweets.  Courtney’s twitter account is locked so we can’t see what she says but Chris’s account is public for anyone to see.

@CNaylee ok ill call u when I’m close

Before anyone gets the wrong idea, I’m not trying to imply that Courtney was setting up a “buy” from Chris Brichetto with the last tweet.  She could have been asking him to bring her a soda or an ice cream for all I know.  I’m including these so people can see they were, at least at this point, friends.  Good enough friends to “chill at her crib”.

Contact with her goes back to 2010 on twitter and he had apparently been arrested before this latest arrest for trafficking and contempt as evidenced by his tweets.

Off to court to get sentenced

who ever does the release dates at the jail is so stupid they keep changing my release date wow!

After reading all this information over, here’s where I stand on Courtney.  I had my doubts in the beginning that Courtney was involved in this mess at all.  Then I thought she probably was involved in some manner but was afraid of Justin therefore was afraid to tell what she might know.  Now, seeing who Courtney has surrounded herself with and associates with, I don’t have as much of a problem believing she might be involved in some way.  I certainly don’t think anymore that she was afraid of Justin.  Justin is a scared little bully.  Courtney’s associates are hardened and mean.  If Justin did Courtney wrong I don’t think she would have any problem finding people willing and able to kick his ass or worse.

Knowing that Courtney associated with the likes of Christopher Brichetto and seeing the criminal pasts (and present) of some of her close family members, has your opinion of Courtney changed?

Someone needs to speak out for Ayla.  Maybe someone who gets caught up in one of the many drug arrests that have been happening in Maine will tell what they know and cut a deal.  The wall of silence has to end.
