Syracuse U Cheerleader Charged with Murder
WTVH 5 Syracuse NY ^ | 3/24/05

Posted on 03/24/2005 4:04:42 PM PST by Behind Liberal Lines

A Syracuse University cheerleader was arrested Thursday and charged with murdering the mother of his child.

Chiarra Seals’ body was in the backyard of a home on Avondale Place, in near the university section of the city, early Thursday morning.

Seals (pictured left) was reported missing Wednesday evening, after her two young children were found home alone in their apartment.

In a statement to police, Brian Shaw (pictured right) said he got into an argument with Seals on Wednesday. Shaw admitted to police he hit and strangled Seals, 23, in her apartment at 160 Jasper Street and carried her body in a suitcase and left it in the backyard of a home on Avondale, near his house on Columbus Avenue.

Seals was Shaw’s former girlfriend and the mother of his four-year-old daughter, Essence. Police say Essence and Seals’ 17-month-old son were home at the time and Essence told police she saw her mother being dragged out of the apartment.

Shaw is a member of the cheerleading squad at Syracuse University and a fraternity brother at Sigma Phi Epsilon.

Seals was the great grand-niece of Syracuse Common Councilor Thomas Seals. Shaw has been charged with second-degree murder. Seals’ children were not physically injured and are staying with relatives.

Shaw blew it. He should have married her so that he had control of her, then smothered her or otherwise caused her to become brain-damaged.

Then he could later sue her doctors for millions and afterward get a friendly judge to decide she really wanted to die anyway, and the judge would force her to die of thirst.

That way the perp could murder her, collect money and become famous too.

I see you reconsidered your original comment.

People do say things in grief that do not always come out right, I think that was the case with her comment.

I would assume that a guy with two kids is in a fraternity because he is an irresponsible deadbeat.

The poor young lady ... and the poor children. Some errors in judgment are fatal.

He was a cheerleader? That can't be right. Male cheerleaders are all gay.

Actually, a lot of college male cheerleaders are straight. High school football players with blown knees and such. They need people strong enough to hold a woman aloft by her crotch.

Some are called. I was not chosen.

It's sad that he did this...and sadder still he's a fraternity brother. No, I went to the Unversity of South Carolina, but I was still consider him a fraternity brother. I might not consider him a human being for his actions though. :(
