I saw that before, too, and I have to say, I don't know if that's legal. My understanding is the cause and manner of death come from the Medical Examiner and not LE. The Medical Examiner takes evidence from the remains and adds that to evidence received from LE to come to a final conclusion...
Arrghhh... sorry, hollyblue. Try it again because I fixed it. It didn't work at first. If it still doesn't work, maybe someone else can help me. This was an article in the Times Free Press this morning about the funeral service.

"When searchers found Gail Palmgren's body, she was wearing an outfit Durham had given her. Inside the Jeep was an envelope addressed to Arlene."
Thank you, Ladydoc, I agree with you on this. To me, Gail's behavior was more manic, and she was planning for the future. I agree also that driving off that mountain would take a tremendous amount of courage and would be terrifying. I can't even imagine. I have never been to the location...
:twocents: This is just my opinion, but I believe that the best situation for everyone including the children is to know the truth, whatever it is. I just don't think it's a good idea to keep that from them. It will be all over the news and everyone else will know the truth. In that case...
Yep. Absolutely. No matter what they say, some will be upset and angry. I agree they don't want any of that going on before they lay her to rest. A wise decision in my opinion.
I see the difference between the statements, "they have not been questioned" and "he would not allow them them to be questioned". I honestly do and I don't believe I have heard or read the latter statement. But, I guess what I am thinking is this- In the beginning LE had no idea what happened...
Thanks, this is part of what I was remembering, but there were more and I saw at least one that was a very direct answer. Someone should be able to come up with those tweets here because I remember several people here faithfully following those twitter feeds and even asking the reporters...
I'm not sure if it was mentioned in any of the articles on Gail's case, but I saw one of the main reporters following the case "tweet" this, as I recall, more than once. I don't twitter, but I think I may have seen these tweets when someone here posted a link to the reporter's twitter feed...
A couple of things. First of all I agree with you about the sad state of "news reporting" today. I have learned a lot following this story, too. We may not appreciate the way it is done now compared to what we remember from many years ago as responsible journalism, but unfortunately, I don't...
This is also not the first time LE has mentioned the cost issue. In a Callie Starnes article from WRCB on July 11, Janice Atkinson, HCSO spokesperson was quoted making a statement about the "hefty price tag" of the investigation. It really bothered me when I read it then and the recent mention...
I believe your suspicions are correct. I also don't think the funeral plans mean that the investigation is complete. It may just mean that the part of the investigation that involves the remains are complete and were released to the family for services. The timing of the funeral probably not...
I agree. I don't think you could push a rock like that over that edge with a Jeep if you tried really hard. My opinion is that if Gail lost control for whatever reason and went over the edge, that Jeep would have scaled right over that rock, barely moving it, if at all. I don't believe rocks...
BBM--You're very welcome and well, yes. Maybe since this has apparently nothing at all to do with Gail's case, the moderators will allow a little flexibility here with regard to rumor. I saw a member of the community post somewhere else that the other car belonged to someone who committed...
Hi Oriah, I have a little information about the other vehicle, however, I don't have a link, just a possible explanation. Many people have asked about the other vehicle. About a week or so after the recovery of Gail's Jeep, I was reading postings and comments on WTVC's FB page. This is our...
I agree. I am also concerned about the statement from LE that Gail was apparently not buckled up. Now, I know that her not wearing a seatbelt does not technically prove anything, but I find it very odd. I am close to the same age, and I find that most people in my age group wear seatbelts. I...
Hi Jade, I agree with pretty much everything you said, but I am curious about the bolded statement. Are you saying that you think that Gail purposely drove off the mountain or that it wasn't an accident? Thanks, Melodie
Well, I saw that too, but was trying to ignore it. There will be no crow on my supper plate. I apologize ahead if I offend anyone, but if this is proven beyond all doubt to be a tragic accident, I will still forever believe that even if no one had a "direct" hand in what happened to Gail there...
There are so many questions. I wondered the same thing. Also, for those that have followed this case very closely from the beginning, where is the bag with AD's laptop and boat key? That bag should have been in the Jeep. Is it there? Hopefully when they complete the investigation, most or all...
