Wow, this whole thing boggles my mind. Every part of me wants to think the grandma is good intentioned. That she had a hard life but turned over a new leaf, trying to provide for so many. To tragic results.
But partying does not compute. Am I too optimistic? Naive? Is it mental illness? Developmental disabilities or personality disorders? Drug-destroyed judgement?
Could Leilani be trickle truthing her? First, telling her she wasn’t involved at all, then, telling her she doesn’t remember anything, then, maybe telling her that she had discovered he died in his sleep randomly, and she utterly panicked?
But grandma, what about the history of belt marks and whippings and bruises to the face and neck and back? History of neglect? Giving up custody?
Grandma, look what the police are doing as you drink Patron. Digging through Savannah’s rotting, maggot-filled trash looking for sweet Quentin.
And when they soon find him, IMO they will discover violent abuse or massive overdose of adult sleep aid or some other proof of homicide. What then?!
Leilani, your trickle truth days are numbered, as in maybe only one or two more. The whole world is about to find out what you did in detail.
MOO
