Chad has allowed John Prior to stand in front of cameras for the world to see and tell the world Lori is a vixen and poor little Chad was persuaded to do things that isn’t even in him for the sake of his affair with Lori. He has allowed Prior to tell the world he only really loved his wife and would never hurt her. All the while, Lori is locked up and believing Chad will stand up for their relationship.
I did. Until I saw what they are capable of. Their paws can bend steel. I had a neighbor here i used to go buy groceries for. She was 90 and lived alone. She couldn’t hear and lost her sense of smell. I went over one day and heard intense scratching in her kitchen walls. The smell inside her home made me run outside. Her neighbor was a fireman so i asked him to please help. A raccoon had used his paws to break an ac vent on the second floor of her home. As he rummaged around upstairs, he somehow fell between the walls although we don’t know how. But he was inside the kitchen wall behind the refrigerator struggling and scratching. The fireman got very sick from the smell. We called a pest company and they came and had to tear down the wall between her kitchen and hallway and by then, the raccoon had died. It scared me to think of what would have happened had that raccoon jumped onto her bed. That thing weighed about thirty pounds or more! They are not pets.
I think I would have tried to get a restraining order against her. Not that an order helps. Sometimes it makes matters worse. I definitely would have ran the other way. I am certain Audrey is happy she is locked up. Still, I would be traumatized and looking over my shoulder.
I guess in a case like that all of the jurors had to be vetted to be supporters of the DP. Based on that, I'd put it as a very high probability. How was it that Archibald got the DP off the table for Lori?
Okay, but couldn't that just prior playing defense and trying to garner sympathy for his client? Unless Chad filed for divorce, I'd say those are empty words.
After Lori made that horror movie worthy threat, then Audrey had to sleep there!!! I would have been on the phone to 911 and gotten a police escort out of there.
She needed professional help before even meeting Lori and Chad. She has a strange personality. It's one thing to be naive or gullible but she's way beyond that. I thought Archibald did a good job showing how absurd everything she believed was and made her look like a loon. I give her credit for sitting there and admitting it. She is definitely the personification of cult mentality. Lori was right when she said she was like a child who would believe anything which is probably why she had the 100% trust factor.
So you are presuming that he will be found guilty?
Lori claimed mental illness and while that doesn’t work in Idaho she did spend time in a hospital. She asked for a speedy trial while Chad asked for time. So their trials weren’t held together. The judge had no choice because of her time constraints but to take the dp off the table. Say what you will about Mark Means but he did that for Lori.
Yes I believe he will be guilty. How do you get around the kids bring in his yard?
Good questions and I don’t have answers. I’m not willing to judge Audrey so harshly because she is naive. Maybe she has matured. But I believe her and I can picture Lori saying exactly what Audrey told the court. Talking about cult mentality, MG and MP are worse. They had both been married with children. Both are bad mothers, imo. And to believe they would somehow be exalted by following Lori and Chad is something I don’t believe.
Chad doesn’t believe in divorce remember? He would have wound up killing Lori if he found a more “worthy” wife. And same for Lori as far as her killing Chad.
I would add:
The context was Ian and Melani, but I get you
Seems like blaming a corrupt system is the new thing for nut-job criminals these days. MM just goin’ with the flow.
That’s as I remember it, too.
Poor little Chad. Oh dear.
