Nice summary in dallasnews.com article Sherin Mathews' doctor warned CPS months before death that 3-year-old had been abused The video on the page has glimpses of the testimony and while SM is led out past WM after the session, WM tries to share an awkward smile !!

It is clear from yesterday's questioning (based on the specific questions posed by the Asst DA) that they have systematically developed damning evidence based on the testimonies of professionals and others who were in contact with or aware of Mathews' statements and actions. In one way it is...

So the initial search missed the tiny body in the culvert !! But how could that have happened ?

Yet another story where CPS should have been more aggressive in protecting the child :furious: Hope the DA has enough evidence to throw the full force of the TX law at these low lifes. What a sad situation for the bio child !! This question to SM sums up the story for me ; And sad to say...

The arrest affidavit is linked at the top of the thread. It states :

On the other hand, the social pressure from the church community might have pressured them into this adoption even if the couple considered backing out at some point. Another point to note is that because of the OCI status of the Mathews, they could have potentially been on a fast-tracked...

But why did WM admit to direct involvement in the disappearance from the very outset while he could have just stated the kid went to sleep at night but was missing in the morning ? Or they could have been even more devious and with little help from immediate family could have kept quiet and...

While any scenario is possible, the genital mutilation practice of an Islamic sect (Bohras as described in the article) is hardly representative of the rest of India. The article linked is about the problem within this specific community. So Syrian Christians with roots in Kerala practicing...

But it is OK to let the extended family and the church family hold the funeral unless there is evidence that they are possibly guilty or complicit in causing the abuse and death of Sherin.

Very interesting observation. During the initial days when freelancers were doing ad hoc reporting , one such report claimed SM is not an RN, but just an LVN and that she is unemployed and sitting at home and probably studying for RN. Maybe SM indeed had a position which mainly had her...

The fact that they had Overseas Citizen of India (OCI) status means they had surrendered their Indian citizenship. And other reports have indicated that they are both US citizens now. The OCI status and card allows visa free travel to India and other privileges and rights in India that would...

Though the mistreatment of women is a sad truth in Indian society, I don't think we have any evidence for mistreatment of SM at the hands of WM. It is as valid as the scenario of SM being the evil mother and wife and WM taking the blame. The fact that the Mathews' had a biological...

The affidavit in the arrest warrant is not a transcript of the statements from WM , as I understand from previous discussions. The LE might have specifically phrased that specific question and got an affirmative answer from WM and highlighting it so that the complaint in the arrest warrant fits...

Since people are discussing the dynamics inside the couple's relationship, there was this interesting snippet from Maria Guerrero's FB page on the day of SM's arrest which supports the comments during the initial days from the several freelance sources that mentioned WM was the main caregiver...

Let us discount Indian media, I can give you at least couple of links from ndtv.com which cleared SM and proclaimed the police have said SM is not involved !! Indian media is largely doing cut and paste from the US MSM . RPD never said SM was a POI, other than saying they would like to talk to...

I think the reporter misspoke here. She must have been referring to WM admitting to it during the interview after his second arrest, as detailed in the RPD press conference. SM hasn't talked to the authorities other than some indirect help during the identification of the body. Hence the need to...

They are smart enough to know that if you tell the LE that the child was placed near the the tree outside the fence, there won't be any search of the house :facepalm:

All the discussion about toxicology tests, though routine, leads me to think something toxic could have been administered in the ever present milk.

I too thought initial reporting mentioned the sister being with another family for the night. But then again RPD also might have been stating the version of events given by the Mathews' at that time. Could someone please help out with the reporting related to the whereabouts of the sister on...
