I am troubled by the direction of painting Desiree as non-credible, incorrect, vengeful, wrong, and at fault. IMO it's an attempt to distract and deflect and change the narrative.
Terri is the one named as a suspect by her own attorney and a judge. Terri placed herself as the last one with Kyron and the last to see him. Terri left her tiny child with a man that she had nothing good to say about. Not just temporarily, but now for over 12 years. Wasn't she worried that Kaine would say negative things about her to the child? A path was laid out for her to regain contact with her child, why didn't she take it?
IMO she has a fantasy that when the chid is 18, they will have a happy and lovely reunification. How will she explain to the child why she left her? Well, I was just sure that everyone was ganging up on me and that if I answered any more questions I would go to jail. So I stopped trying. I just knew you would understand.
That reunification is never going to happen. She'll be arrested by then.
