Karen Carpenter was a legendary pop singer from the 1970's, the other half of the sister-brother pop duo The Carpenters, selling more than 100 million records worldwide. Unfortunately Karen battled a lot of demons, from being overprotected by A & M Records to her mother being one who couldn't say "I love you' to her only daughter, being controlled for everything. In 1975 Karen developed the eating disorder Anorexia Nervosa, a disease she fought bravely with for 7 years of her life, getting help in 1982, but sadly, succumbed to complications due to the disease on February 4, 1983. In 2010 the critically acclaimed biography, "Little Girl Blue", revealed the startling revelation that her short-lived marriage to real-estate developer Thomas James Burris was anything but fairy tale like, with no happy ending for her. Days before the wedding he told her he had a vasectomy, despite Karen saying she desperately wanted children. She thought she was marrying an amazing guy, but in reality he was a fraud who was going to destroy her to the point where she cried in her psychiatrists' office, saying how throne guy she thought she was going to spend the rest of her life with was somebody she could no longer be married to, despite wanting to stay to be a mother.
According to close friends Frenda Franklin and Itchie Ramone, Burris was not at all a kind man after their marriage. Although he portrayed himself to be "Mr. Perfect", lying he'd never heard of The Carpenters to buying extravagant gifts such as cars and boats in order to brainwash her into falling in love with him, showing that he could be able to take care of himself. He wasn't able to afford anything, from those lavished cars to her own wedding ring, taking anywhere from 30,000 to 50,500 at a time, totaling to more than 1 million dollars taken from her personal bank account, not paying her back. She had also been the one paying for their multiple summer homes, being manipulated into believing this marriage could work.
In addition to being a gold digger, he was known to be very cruel to her. She admitted to being fearful when he would lose his temper, as he was prone to being physically abusive, although it wasn't actually mentioned given he's still alive sadly, possibly due to irritation due to not eating or being naive, in addition to emotional and verbally, referring to her as a bag of bones, torturing her with the idea that nobody would want her due to her anorexia, putting her down for her eating disorder. Friends would say that they saw bruises and evidence of physical abuse as she wouldn't admit to it, and since nobody saw anything, was not reported although friends and family members urged her to leave her husband. He ended destroying her physically and mental spirit when he told her he wouldn't consider having children with her due to her anorexia, pushing her further into it. He would send calls for when she was getting treatment for her anorexia, berating her for getting sick and having unreasonable demands, and instead of being supportive was a clear known sociopath first trying to pose as her prince. There are given episodes showing he was cruel to her supporting the idea that he was a pathological liar when it came to their relationship, taking his anger out on her. He took her personal wedding album and sold it, thus taking advantage of her still, wanting more money and harassing her friends, according to Itchie.
Burris shocking found somebody whom he didn't take advantage of and had a son with her. Burris used Karen as a sick advantage to take her money while using her as a bank and not being a caring husband by being the worst example ever of an abuser and wife beater due to her anorexia. He actually found establishment as head of Aberdeen Burris Contractors, where people are actually paying more money for a psychopath to help establish their homes. What I am asking for you is to help back up Frenda and Itchies statements that Burris was indeed a sociopath and fraud, after saying he regretted treating her like garbage, as all Carpenter fans truly have a strong dislike for him. It's understandable that Karen's brother Richard, the other half of the Carpenters, has a hush order held up on Tom's head since most likely he would've profited more from her death. Yet there are so many unanswered questions as to his treatment of her during their marriage. We're gonna die with unanswered questions as to what he did to her during that time, and we need to clear up the truth as to how he really was, or even her, as if he really was abusive in every single term. This could give him a chance to clear anything truthfully without any chances of lying. We could all finally know the truth.
Unfortunately the test costs between 600-700 $, and if I don't achieve my goal in less than 30 days then the case is dropped and Karen's legacy will remain tarnished forever with the thought that she spent the last years of our live with one of the biggest scums of this Earth. This could be a chance for Thomas to also clear up anything, and although not all details of his relationship with Karen will be revealed due to privacy issues, give the public a chance to say those little details of what REALLY happened. If you could please take the time to donate it would be very important and grateful. PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO HELP PUT KAREN AT REST FOR THOSE MONTHS ENDURED BY ALL TYPES OF ABUSE NOT JUST FOR HER BUT ALL THOSE WHO ARE ABUSED EVERYDAY AND DON'T SAY ANYTHING. DO THIS FOR HER. I am asking all Carpenter fans to unite and put an end to this man and his greed for taking advantage of having been her abusive husband as she endured so much torture in her lifetime, and this marriage was the final straw into slipping into the deep realms of anorexia. Please do it for her, find it in your hearts to donate now.
