With all due respect to everyone and with no disrespect intended to anyone, why does it matter what Beverly did OR did not have? Why does it matter if she did OR did not have a will? When in the end, it all comes down to one thing...her life was taken. She was murdered. Her body found buried in a shallow grave at a concrete plant. Two people are charged for her murder and kidnapping. Was she rich? Was she poor? Does it matter? Beverly and/or her family have not been charged with a crime. Beverly and/or her family's lives should not be being picked apart or scrutinized or second guessed (IMO). Even IF something would come out at a later date, that may lead to why it was her and not somebody else, it still shouldn't matter because NO MATTER WHAT, she did not deserve to have her life taken no matter what she may OR may not have done.
Sure, we all want to know and we all wonder WHY? WHY did they do this? WHY Beverly? If not Beverly, would it have been someone else? The ones that can answer those questions would (IMO) be the ones that are charged with her murder and kidnapping. And if AL and CL (or anyone else for that matter) do not want we, the public, speculating, sleuthing, forming our own opinions, and trying to piece together in our minds what took place then maybe they themselves should tell their stories. Of course, we know that is not going to happen because then they would be admitting to what roles they played in Beverly's death. We all know that AL has a big mouth and has a hard time keeping it shut. CL has been portrayed by those who knew her, at least here on the thread, as someone who would never have played a part in any of this. It is difficult for anyone to ever want to accept that someone they knew or were close to could ever have committed such crimes or been involved in anyway whatsoever. The most you ever hear after the fact may be something along the lines of, well he/she always was kind of strange, I never did put nothing past him/her, they have always had issues, etc etc etc. But, there comes a time (IMO) when it is what it is, the covering for and making excuses will only last until it all starts coming out at trial, then there is no turning back. Both their past histories speak volumes as to many things (IMO). And I am quite sure, there are many who know much more than will ever be admitted to.
Yes, we all know that people do get charged with crimes, found guilty and sentenced, only to have charges later dismissed or reversed, exonerated etc. However, IMO, that isn't the case here with AL OR CL. If it is, then I will be the first to admit that I was wrong (as I'm sure most of you will too).
IMO, Beverly was much more productive and had a lot more to contribute to society than AL and/or CL did obviously. From what we have been told and from what we can assume Beverly worked full-time, as did her husband. Was AL or CL employed? Was they productive members of society? Did either OR hold down a job? Did they own or was they purchasing the home they lived in?
And I could go on and on. My point being, why should Beverly's life be scrutinized?
