That video makes Century 21 look like a cult. Also, Gerard is a hopeless dancer.
"Allison had her hair done that day and looked great"- I guess this rules out death by hair dye.
The beard? My guess is it's to disguise himself a bit, in the hope he can avoid some of the stares and glares being out in the public from day to day. I hardly think it has anything to do with a change of life, as he hasnt got away with it yet and he is basically in limbo.
Then again, why authorities would let him have custody of the children while he's still supposedly their number 1 suspect is beyond me. If anything happens to those children if he decides to get desperate, it's going to be hard for the family to dealwith something that was so totally unavoidable. Even we here, know what can and does happen when a person has custody of their children and faces a very long term prison sentence.
By the way, that Alison Sandy reporter is so hard to watch. She stumbles through interviews, over uses her hands and says "ah" and "um" and "er" too frequently. Frustrating, I sit there mentally telling her to hurry up and spit it out, annoying.
