I think that you make a very good point here, regarding medications and seeking professional help; especially for the A's. I can assure you that if it were my family, every one of us would run like heck to a psychiatrist/psycologist for help to cope with this. I have a strong opinion/theory regarding LB and her motives as well, but I'll stick to the A's and Mallory for now.
In my opinion, the A family avoids seeking professional help. Seeking help for this horrid tragedy for most if not all of us; is just one of the obvious steps toward dealing with the immense grief associated with this kind of loss. There are grief counselors galore, readily available and most accept health insurance or work on a "scale" regarding payment.
I think that the medication provided to Cindy was via her GP. I have no idea if she has continued the meds. prescribed. Cindy does appear to be under the influence of medication; especially when testifying in court.
Also, the A's buy into the most unfortunate social stigma still associated with seeking from psychiatrists/psychologists. In other words shame and Cindy having to admit that her family is not emotionally and/or spiritually healthy. IMO, the A family is emotionally and spiritually bankrupt. Additionally, seeking help could potentionally uncover at least some of the secrets of the dynamics of the A family. They surely do not want that, for obvious reasons other than the ones I've stated above.
Yes, Cindy did seek help once, that we know of. We also know that she did not take the advice that the professional offered to her. Had she followed the advice, our sweetheart Caylee may still be alive. "Tough love" is often used as a professional tool.
All of my blabber above:talker::iamashamed: causes me to ponder/wonder that Mallory has/is seeking help and LE knows this? Mallory is not an A. What/why would be the reason that my assumption would cause LE not to take a formal depo.? There must be a very good reason that LE has not taken a formal depo. from her. LE has done a fantastic job with this investigation. Could there be some sort of connection between Mallory's seeking professional help and LE not deposing her? Again, why is there no formal information regarding Mallory in this doc. dump or any other thus far? If there is a formal depo. with Mallory and LE, wouldn't it be part of discovery at this point? Or...is SA allowed to wait a bit longer to release some docs.? I'm so confused.
I hope that the reason becomes clear prior to or at the trial. Mallory is not an A, but is clearly a "player"/witness. This whole Mallory thing is...glaringly wierd.
