Hi
My name is Carmen, too. I think that's about the only thing we have in common, though
I am very sorry to hear about your father, I know it was a terrible ordeal. However, I don't understand how you can presume what George Anthony would, or wouldn't do. I also feel very sorry for him, and not just because he lost a granddaughter. I feel sorry for him because he is living under a microscope while experiencing this loss, he has essentially lost his daughter, a large chunk of his privacy, his granddaughter, what relationship he had with his wife, I'm sure, his reputation, and probably his FAITH. He is LIVING in a house full of his daughter and granddaughter's belongings. He is listening to the same news reports and documents that make us cry, cringe, and hurt. I don't understand how people can be so callous. Sure, you don't have to agree with George's actions, but can you at least see where his hurt is coming from more than one angle, and how OVERWHELMING it must be?
I don't find it unlikely at all that someone who has had their granddaughter murdered (allegedly and most likely) by their own monster-daughter and gone through interrogations, testified against his own daughter inthe grand jury, knowing the inside info, imagining his granddaughter left to die in a trunk, or woods, having to walk into her bedroom, or see her toys lying around- yes, I don't find it unlikely at all that this person GENUINELY wanted to end their life.
I think it is unfathomable to judge this attempt, even if it were a cry for help.
And to the poster who said George should have handled things the "right way"
Is there a "right" and "wrong" way to handle this sort of mind breaking grief? Please provide a link to the "right" and "wrong" way to conduct yourself after you find your granddaughter was senseless murdered by your daughter, then produced lies trying to convince you to agree. TIA for the link, though I suspect it will take a lot of googling.
I really have to log off now. I'm going to get a time out
