I think Darin testified that it was Dana and we all know how truthful he was on the stand. All you have to do is read his two testimonies to impeach him. Nelda Watts, the witness who saw them to do it, stated that it was Darlie and Darin. Besides, why would we believe it was Dana...

Because leaving the knife at the scene was dramatic and the whole scene was meant to be dramatic and bold. Besides she had to explain her fingerprints on the knife. How could she do that if she dumped it down the alley? Of course, the knife handle was made out of something that fingerprints...

It is easy to do when you have supporters spinning their interpretations of the evidence that leaves so much out. If you read what they have to say on their various websites, it does sound like she was a sacrificial lamb sent to the gallows inappropriately. This argument is an old one, that...

I think Darlie was trying to make it look like someone had pulled her by the shirt while trying to stab her and just missed knicking her skin. Not very convincing. If it had happened that way, I would expect to see some knicks, even if just scratches or very shallow cuts. So my conclusion...

I think most people who post on this case have some of the same feelings. You'd think that if a mother decided to kill their child, they would pick as near a painless method as possible instead of something so gruesome, but knives are often used in domestic killings, I think because you don't...

That's what everybody says, but I was curious about how this rule would effect Darlie's case should the issue ever come up. Darlie's and Darin's testimonies probably did more to convict her than anything. Add that to no explanation offered by the defense for the truly incriminating...

I have tried to search for similar crimes in and around Rowlett, which is a suburb of Dallas, but have never found anything but an atty and her husband who tried to kill their business partners. Maybe there was a rapist in Dallas who had that M.O. but he either was never caught or didn't...

Then how did the would-be burglars who killed the kids know where to go and when? Darin claims he asked Darlie's stepfather if he knew anyone who would do rob his house and Darlie's stepfather claims that he told Darin "no." Their claims are just too vague. Unless he did actually hire...

Texas statute allows DP for a child under 6 (not 8) and when more than one person is killed at the same time. I know it has been said on the net that the state could try her for Devon's death if she were acquitted of Damon's, but according to rule I stated above, it sounds like they could not...

I agree. They all came from the same neighborhood and from what I read, it was a low income area, wheher they lived in a house or trailer with a huge drug problem. I suspect that most of the players/player's parents were not that much different from the stepfather.

I disagree. Autopsy and crime scene photos should be pubic record, and we are the public. When it comes to murder, it is the public's concern as well as the family's. Citizens who want to investigate for themselves should have the freedom to do that without being made to feel guilty or weird...

You are right. I used to sell real estate and more than once I found myself in very vulnerable situations that were scary.

I don't think parents get any special consideration in these crimes. We have just seen too many heinous things done by would-be loving parents and maybe some not so loving to just give them an authomatic pass because they are parents. I don't think these parents would do anything like this...

Well, the jewelry on or off doesn't really prove anything one way or the other because some women sleep with it on and some don't. Without someone to tell us what Darlie's habits were, it becomes almost moot. Jewelry piled up on a counter that a burglar passes at least twice and somehow...

I wonder what kind of dog she had. A mastiff? LOL!

I haven't kept up on this case, but last year I did start reading the docs on the website, specifically police reports. Echols was going around telling classmates that he and the other boys did it. He seemed like a good susspect to me. I really didn't get the suspicion of the stepfather...

Yes, but mostly for themselves, not necessarily for others. Some of the most insensitive people I have known were overly sensitive about their own feelings and easily wounded, which often caused them to lash out at others. I don't think they even knew how hurtful they were to others because...

Okay, lawyers, listen up. Esp you Texas lawyers. In the Yates trial, Jeana posted at another forum, that she could not be tried for the children not charged with already because they used the evidence of all 5 children in the first trial. My question is, does that not also apply to Darlie...
