If in fact Dia believed that her son had tried to kill her, true or not, she would have been so vulnerable to manipulation by someone with bad intentions, that it just breaks my heart. Who can you ever trust, if not your own family? Comments made by some of our posters here, which spoke of Dia's paranoia and her carrying a weapon at all times, are more believable with this context added in, and actually line up pretty well with the few facts we do have about Dia's life.Would love to know if anyone else was told this by Dia.
Harper also alleged Clinton Abrams tried to poison his mother “six years ago” when she was hospitalized with lower back surgery in San Diego.
“When she woke up in the recovery room, she was surprised to see her son Clinton, since no one in the family had volunteered to assist her. Dia claimed the meeting was short and her son gave her something to drink and then left. Dia claimed what happened next was she slipped into an unexplained coma for the next four days and nearly died. When she recovered, she believed the [sic] Clinton had administered her a dose of something intending to kill her, since the medical team had no explanation of her near death experience,” Harper wrote in the court declaration.
Good question, slowpoke. Wonder when the pot plants went in?https://interactive.cbs8.com/pdfs/harper_declaration.pdf
“I first met Dia Abrams five years ago when I came to assist her in the management of her ranch. I have never asked for any compensation then or now for my efforts to revive and beautify the ranch that she loved and cared for.”
I found this very curious. He first met Dia five years ago when he came to help manage the ranch. And he “never asked for any compensation”. So he didn’t know her before he came to work for her, but he worked for free?
How did this arrangement come about? Did someone recommend him? Answered an ad? Seems very unusual.
I agree with you about KH making some good points here. (I was going to say his story sounds more believable, but I still don't believe him.) His statement that he paid $35000.00 towards expenses for Dia's Sky High property, out of his own money, was rather bold in light of what happened there at exactly the time Dia disappeared, IMO, but it has the ring of truth to me, and unless the bust at that property is a part of the record in these proceedings, it sounds like responsible stewardship. Heck. Maybe it was.harper_declaration.pdf (cbs8.com)
POApetition.pdf (cbs8.com)
As usual, a big thank you to @tvscum for this update and these documents. There's a lot to nitpick in what is presented by both sides. I would think the judge would want to concentrate more on the examination of the legal documents and the changes Dia made, and whether she did so of her own free will.
Whether KH has a RSO record is beside
the point here, IMO. The children using hearsay to point out that maybe KH and DF were lovers, IMO, sounds like gossip. (Conspiracy theories? This isn't a criminal court case at this time.) I figure they have top attorneys and feel their petition is all over the place like buckshot. I definitely think they should demand KH present the full legal POA, and any witnesses that can support his allegations. It is of utmost importance to insure the changes Dia made to the Trust were what she wanted of her own sound mind and free will. I wonder if her children would respect her wishes if it was proven she wanted and made those changes.
You know I don't trust any of the players in this case as yet, but this post is mainly about how I see the two sides and their petitions. It is just my own opinion. MOO
Actually I think KH's petition makes some good points. He sticks to the presenting all his efforts and willingness to be a responsible trustee, the economical concerns, and the lack of interest to help in anyway from her children. I do feel it was necessary for KH to mention the estrangement between Dia and her children to explain why she would change the Trust.
Did Dia tell others that hospital story? Was there bad blood within the family relationships despite what Clinton said? What's the real story about that truck?
The children argue Dia signed those changes under duress. However, KH and DF say the duress was because Dia didn't trust her children and didn't want them to get her estate. I do agree with @coastal that if Dia talked about that hospital incident or her fears it made her vulnerable to be gas lighted by others. What a mess.
MOO-- All my own thoughts and opinions.

Interesting...
Abrams hand-delivered cinnamon rolls to a neighbor early Saturday morning on the date went missing, News 8 has confirmed.
So—great information to know for timeline purposes. Dia was alive and seemingly having a normal, positive morning the day she went missing. Her son had said his mom woke up early, baked the rolls and took them to her neighbor, and I guess cbs8 has confirmed this to be so.
I know there has been discussion here that maybe she went missing earlier than that day, so this is telling us no, she was there that morning.
If it has been confirmed that Dia was there on that day in the morning....then either her fate was planned ahead of time by Harper or he winged it somewhat with time constraints. This in my humble opinion means that he moved faster to dispose of her if he in deed did kill her. Thus, he may have made a mistake and there may be hope for conviction. If he pre-planned everything then not so much. Now he is trying to force his hand at taking the property? Wow, does that ever smell of a rat.....HIM!
MOO,
MOO,
STRICTLY MY OPINION ONLY.
Have both parties in these petition forgotten about Isidro and his vast knowledge? Have they dismissed that there are others that have knowledge of the happenings and truth.
MOO, Is that I cannot believe entirely what each side is stating in the petitions. It appears to my there could be half truths, exaggerated facts and bold face lies. MOO
To me this seems like a fictional drama written for Netflix.
MOO.. strictly my opinion from reading the text of petitions, the earlier petitions Dia had filed and watching the videos presented by Tvscum channel 8 San Diego
Thanks for the links. Wow, it could help. It sounds like a fairly new study. Is it costly? Are you suggesting LE use this fascinating technology to find Dia's remains? Perhaps Dia's loved ones could arrange to have this done. Only problem is I'm not sure any of those mentioned care enough to look further. Plus, Dia may not be on the property. Did you see the drone search done in Arizona? You're right that the main priority now is to find her so we can figure out who is responsible for harming her. Who will search for Dia?snipped to reply...My suggestion is to use Lidar to scan her property to detect elevation changes to narrow down potential grave locations. Lidar could help in search for missing murder victims | Electro Optics
