    I'm thinking that the "counselor" who reported Calyx's report of her mother hitting her was an academic counselor on the staff of the high school, one who has a certain number of students to advise (i.e., "counsel") re: their choice of classes, arranging schedules and activities, hearing...

    Thanks, Vresia. I did not realize until I read this article that Julie had consumed enough medicine to have caused her death, and was only kept alive because of her mother's phone call to the police. Also I had not heard about the waiting period before she was allowed to pick up the gun. With...

    Perhaps Julie's drinking was exacerbated by some pain medication she received at the hospital after the automobile accident last fall, especially if she found a way to continue taking the medicine (legally or illegally) while drinking as well. Perhaps her husband took over her carpool duties...

    I was also struck by the DNR ("Do Not Resuscitate") sign and wonder if Julia "planned" to place it above her own body at the time she "planned" to commit suicide....really sick. I also noticed "retirement papers" and think perhaps the couple had been discussing Parker's retirement from the...

    Didn't Calyx just start at the prestigious King H.S. in September? I have a hunch it was the transfer that caused the need for carpooling, which gave mother and daughter more time to be together than they were used to -- more time to get on each other's nerves! Also, perhaps Julia had some (at...

    How much time do I have to compose a message before the time for posting expires? I just "lost" a message that had taken me a while to compose before attempting to post. TIA...and thanks to all for your useful links, ideas and information!

    Thank you, Vresia, for your very valuable information. It sounds as if Julia had been in a downward spiral for a few months. Perhaps her excessive use (of alcohol, drugs, medications, whatever) coincided with her husband's being out of town. Could her behavior when she was arrested be due to...

    DE DE - John 'Jack' Wheeler, 66, Wilmington, 30 Dec 2010

    AP reports today that his family has offered a $25,000 reward for information leading to an arrest in the case. The family's attorney says they are "desperate for more information."

    Sarah W, Thank you so much for giving us some terms to look up and read about. I agree, having now read (on Wikipedia) about tardive dyskinesia and neuroleptics, that Julia could well have been reacting to a medication. It seems to be the only thing that makes sense in this situation.

    GUILTY VA - Yeardley Love, 22, UVA student, beaten to death, Charlottesville, May 2010 *civil trial 2022*

    To address recent posts from JennaBelle and fhc: I don't think you're entirely off-base in thinking there may be a connection between this murder and Morgan Harrington's. Although I can not now provide a link, I distinctly remember references on the MH threads to UVA students and Anchorage...

    Re: the arm band: I expect that it was attached at the hospital where the surgery was performed and that the alias was intended to ensure her privacy; I have gathered that privacy was very important to her, particularly in the matter of "improvements" to her appearance. JMO.

    Even though I have Adobe Reader 9.3 (the newest version) and a new computer, I cannot open the abc local link that a poster provided. Any suggestions? I would really like to see the footage from today's court session and I very much appreciate the info you all are providing here on the WS...

    IDK, but I'm thinking maybe the "power switch assembly" held the light bulb and, if shattered by the force of the impact, the bulb might have caused some of KT's bleeding. Just a thought

    Thanks! He sure has changed his appearance from the time of the murder when he was apparently "trying to succeed in business" as well as in a few other activities, as we came to find out.

    NC - Kathy Taft, 62, Raleigh, 6 March 2010 - #4

    My hunch is that DH heard the footsteps just before 3 a.m. and that sound is (perhaps) what caused her to wake up. At that time she "checked on" KT by listening outside KT's bedroom door, heard what she thought was snoring, went upstairs to bed, and woke up again at 9:30 at which point she...
