actually, I was kind of responding to the belief that Ron will offer up a sob story, about being a grieving father, who had lost his will to live right, so he turned to drugs, etc...personally, I think now that Crystal has custody of Jr., what she has to say, might have some influence with a judge, & it's my opinion, that Crystal is a much stronger person than before, so I don't think a judge or court room would intimidate her, as much...because there has been a power shift, in her favor. & again, I have no idea what her feelings are on Ron going to prison, but I could see her feelings being pretty divided. Early on, I heard her say that Ron was a good father, & it's MOO, that she wasn't lieing or coerced. But later, I heard her say that she thought Misty & Ron both, knew more than they were saying.
well, with his mother, I think that works both ways, & that's where some of the problem is, I do believe, but my point`was...if Ron is looking for leniency, GGS, TN, just about whoever, can write letters 'til the cows come home, but the only person who might have any real influence, is Crystal. I can't think of anybody, on Tommy's behalf, who could believeably, stand up for him. It would be impractical for Lindsey to divorce him, one day, & then turn around & talk about what a great dad he is, the next. & it doesn't help that they split up, while he has been incarcerated.
As far as Crystal's view, I have to remember the child abuse accusations that were brought up in the DCF investigation. Ron managed to get DCF to rule in his favor also..............imagine that? Anyway, I hope that his gift of the Houdini touch has expired and he finally has to pay the piper.
