sorry I am not understanding the logic that if MR stood up and told his side that this would bring PEACE to RS and the rest.... what more could MR say that would be more horrific than what RS and others had to hear from the mouth of that evil sadistic TLM...she described how she murdered his daughter in graphic detail...the crown showed graphic detailed pictures of little Tori to the courts..RS and others were there and saw these..RS had to leave the court and more than likely throw up....knowing all of that which is about as bad as its gets didn't bring peace to RS and never will...It will haunt him to his last breath...He has some understanding of why this was done to his daughter what more could MR add...he could admit that he was involved or he could deny that he was involved...either way it will NOT bring any peace to RS.....he has heard the worst of worst and nothing MR can or would say would ever bring him peace... so why is it so important for MR to stand up and say anything...will it bring anyone peace...if he says he did it some will say..."I knew that all along...mark that off...if he says he didn't some will say LIAR...but either way no peace....it will make some smug that they "got it right" onwards...but it will never bring absolute PEACE to RS or others....JMO
RS wants the truth. So IMHO if he had the truth he would be able to move forward. The only one who can provide the truth is his beloved daughter who was abducted, sexually assaulted and murdered no longer able to speak the truth. The next most reliable person is TLM and then MR. These two are the reason Tori is no longer alive. TLM has at least had some decency to come forward and confess while MR sits back smug faced and allowed Tori's loved ones to be tormented not knowing what happened to their precious child, and where Tori's body could have been found to bring her home for a bit of closure for her family.
They don't come any more evil than MR. He purposely sat on every detail about Tori's last few hours of her life instead of helping LE locate Tori. Now to me that is pure evil and sick. AND still MR continues to lie and deflect any wrong doing for Tori's fate. He has no conscience and is the true definition of a psychopathy. MR makes TLM seem normal by comparison. JMHO. Remember, TLM was the one who fessed up and helped LE to solve what MR started and finished. The destiny of Tori. If MR has nothing to hide and isn't guilty, he would have taken the stand to fight his own defense but as RS said, "MR is a coward". Plan and simple to see that for sure. MOO
MR fits all of these equations except for the juvenile delinquency which we are not privy to at this stage in the game, but the fact he admitted to at least one woman he had a troubled past at home, and the other is many short-term marital relationships. We know MR had many short term relationships with women in general. HTH. It's so fitting to MR it is scary. MOO. Funny but there are many that TLM does not fit into though. Again MOO.
