Twinkiesmom, I respect your thoughts on this, and I’m not trying to be argumentive, but I see your points very differently and I’ll explain why. While it is terrible that Diane's mother ran off with a neighbor when Diane was nine, and emotional pain resulted, I don't think the rest...

I finally read the police report. Now, I'm convinced this was a drunk driving accident, plain and simple. I was leaning toward possible suicide after reading some ideas about that, but, to me, there's too much that goes against that idea. What instantly changed my mind was when I read that...

Oh, definitely. I only meant that, after time has gone by and others are, understandably, upset by some of the things Daniel's saying or not saying, I still only see him as a victim and can't seem to fault him for any of his actions/words that have occurred since the crash. (NOT that I think...

This is the first I've heard of the friend's description of Diane as a driver. Very interesting. Here it seemed a big part of the puzzle, yet her driving like that may have been the most normal part of the event before whatever happened happened. I remember one of her friends saying that if...

I'm not Daniel's official apologist (although it probably seems that way to some), but because I feel so sorry for him, I keep thinking on behalf of him as a victim. I thought the documentary was somewhat unemotional, it had a kind of clinical coldness to it, probably deliberately, and I'd...

It's possible. And it might explain the aggressive driving, honking and tailgating. But then, wouldn't someone this controlling and, in turn, image conscious, worry more about one of the nieces telling her parents about Aunt Diane getting out the vodka bottle or smoking pot on the drive home...

Although, as I said upthread, I cannot bear to actually read this story, look at photos or watch the videos, or listen to the audio, late last night I remembered reading this post, that he was calling for his father, and I had to make myself stop thinking about it because I got emotional and...

Good points. And this is an interesting reminder about her brother's relationship with their mother. Now, I'm guessing here, because the newspaper articles and the documentary unfortunately don't elaborate on any of the personal details, but maybe Diane's mom was not accountable for the pain...

Are these strokes alcohol related? I ask because, if this did happen to her, I guess it would have been during the alcohol consumption, because I doubt if she would have been able to get to the bottle during the stroke, or would have wanted to drink after it. I guess what I'm asking is if...

I've heard about this story, but cannot read it, look at photos or listen to the audio. As you are all saying, it's absolutely heartbreaking. I have two brothers that I worry about a lot, and I cannot imagine this father's feelings right now. Just hearing about it shakes me up. If it's true...

I was wondering if, despite both psychiatrists' assessments in the documentary, anyone thought this was a suicide. I don't really know how to analyze this possibility, but there might be something about Diane's always-on-the-go, everything-must-be-perfect way of life. As I listened about her...

This sounds possible. That would explain the aggressive driving. I wonder if she held her liquor very well. No one addressed that in the documentary. If she was a lightweight, and didn't drink all that often, she may not have realized how quickly the effects of alcohol can sneak up on you...

A few posters have referred to Daniel stating that he didn't want children to begin with. I thought that Jay, the sister-in-law said this. And, if I'm recalling that correctly, I do think that he may have said that in a certain context to her, and her saying it in the documentary may make it...

One thing in the documentary that added to the mystery was how other drivers described Diane as honking and tailgating for quite some time. And, as mentioned above, she was described as focused and deliberately changing lanes, not weaving. So, at some point she seemed angry, aggressive and...

I just watched this and, based only on the documentary, as I haven't read any of the latest news, I felt very sorry for Daniel. I think he and his sister-in-law are both truly bewildered and can't make sense of what happened, and they really do want to understand. They both acknowledged that...

I saw some of the jailhouse tapes on Nancy Grace tonight (didn't think I could watch anything about this case again, but I was alone and making dinner). On one of the tapes, Casey said that she chose her dad to meet with in private at the jail because she and George had had a bad relationship...

BBM: Although I still think Casey acted alone and her parents knew nothing about the crime, I, too, wonder why the smell of a dead body in the trunk didn't concern George and Cindy more while at the tow yard. George says he was very relieved when they opened the trunk and found that Casey...

Um, Mr. Producer, she waived her right to tell her story when it really mattered: on the witness stand of her murder trial. Don't give her a platform to tell more lies. Don't twist the knife into the gut of the American public.

During the prosecution's closing argument, I wondered if JA had gotten the idea about Caylee beginning to talk from a thread on this forum. The moment he referred to Caylee forming sentences and that it wouldn't be long before she would expose Casey's lies, I thought about that (insightful)...

Yes. It's too bad there's no one to file a wrongful death suit. At least then Casey would have to take the stand and could no longer hide behind her like-minded counsel. And, even though I thought there was overwhelming evidence in the criminal trial, there is less burden of proof in a civil...
