It sounds like that would be no, based on that long article and the video.
My heart and gratitude goes out to Josh for being willing to publicly sort through his feelings to help others. It's heartbreaking to imagine Leanne coming back to stand at the end of the driveway for a...
You clearly wrote out that Desiree "accused Kaine of abuse" and that "the judge agreed with Desiree" (your words) - which is a misrepresentation that Gitana has repeatedly corrected. Kaine was awarded custody of his children. So what the judge has agreed to is that Kaine should be the custodial...
So by your metric, both Desiree and Terri were abusive as well, as they were prevented from taking a child from the home. In the end, Kaine was given custody of both children - therefore the courts found him to be the best parent of the three.
He might have, but probably didn't need to, what...
My guess is the first order of business will be to hire someone who knows how to start a foundation and manage money. Josh and Leanne appear to have a good group of educated professional friends, so I'm sure Josh will have some good guidance in that regard. And it makes sense that he begins...
I totally get that he was ready to move forward (and men suddenly widowed with young children often remarry relatively quickly)-- but that article was creepy and I feel like either the new wife/former friend is kind of weird, or the journalist or editor wanted her to come across as really crass.
I feel like the family was saying something in that ballpark. She "might be emotionally vulnerable" was probably the thin line they walked between wanting to say that she was depressed and wasn't necessarily making good decisions for herself and not wanting to strip her of privacy or dignity had...
I was thinking of sharing something here that I wrote to my sister when I got back from nearly a year backpacking in east africa. It was about how I felt like I was "now living the straight line that comes after the bell curve, life pegged at zero." Actually re-reading a lot of what I wrote, I...
Do we even know if any search dog team was anywhere near her? The official search and rescue team didn't search that area at all, and the family's hired dogs went towards 3009 and then were told to stop, so they never got a chance to search the circle area... I kind of think there just wasn't a...
I "walked" that path when you posted it and it felt right except where it came to her entrance to the property - I can't see her essentially walking across an open lawn parallel to someone's driveway and into their yard. I think there must have been a less public route from the back or side, one...
I haven't read anyone saying that you don't have a right to feel grief. Nearly everyone posting her has expressed how touched they are by Leanne, how much we came to feel we knew her and how much grief we feel over her death. Most of us also feel protective of her. It's natural. That's why so...
I've never seen it either, but I know I'm not ready to watch it right now. I keep looking at the 5K FB page and seeing that logo just hits me in the gut.
I'm a runner and I really wish I could go to the 5K, but it's way too far. I saw a few people are going to run in their own town at the...
One of my students (college aged) died last year and I debated writing to his parents for a few days. I didn't know what to say, didn't think they'd be sitting around reading email, didn't think "I'm so sorry" would be any more than noise to them. Then one of my friends told me that when she...
Most people who are still posting here became involved and protective - none of us (save one) actually know the family, though many of us communicated with them via FB during the investigation. People have been posting beautiful songs, personal stories, lyrics that speak to them, and talking...
Yes, I know... I just avoided using that phrasing in my answer because I find the blunt addressing of it gruesome now that she's been found. The birds are there, she was there, it doesn't matter beyond that... but if that post was a proposal of a conspiracy theory, as if the presence/absence of...
They have been - why would you think there weren't?
Several of the members here live in/near Garden Ridge and they said this type of bird is incredibly common, both when Leanne was missing and before (and presumably after). There's a lot of wildlife there so the birds have plenty to keep them...
Thanks so much for that map. I "walked" the route on streetview and it was so lonely feeling. Nothing about the property where she was found seems especially enticing from the road... I wonder if she was looking at that pleasant but completely non-exotic suburban neighborhood, knowing she should...
Yeah, some of this is known now. It was the homeowner (homeowner & his wife are reportedly in their 70's) who found her. Leanne was found in an area that was not searched by the search & rescue team, as it was so close to the Bearden family home that Search & rescue felt the family had searched...
I don't know this for a fact, but Josh did say that he bought her an anniversary ring that was identical to her wedding ring, and she wore both of them with her engagement ring. So maybe the "two wedding rings" were her two identical rings (one wedding, one anniversary). Josh for sure would have...
