The more I read, the more convinced I am of the possibility of Christina being the murder. The comments about Maria not warding off the blow to her head. What's the possibility that she came home, caught them together and lost it?
Also consider this...Maria's Mom said she never had a boyfriend, so I suspect that she had also never had sex. How many of us women fall deeply for the first man we had sex with? It's an emotional issue for us, and I tend to believe it was the same for Maria.
I do think it is CL's child, and he was afraid of Christina. We all know the stories of what transpires when a woman is scorn!
My gut tells me that Christina was the dominate one in the relationship, and very controlling.
I watched the progam on Dateline the other night, and had an odd feeling about her mother also. Just can't put my finger on exactly what bothered me.
Being raised Catholic myself, I know how the old school Catholics think, and I feel the mother felt shame regarding the baby. So sad, because the baby was innocent and wasn't acknowledged by Maria's mother in the interview at all!
I feel Maria's mother was the reason Maria went to the authorities and filed rape charges. God love her, the hormones were changing and she probably felt very alone and confused. Especially because so many people on base were treating her so terribly, which I feel Christina instigated.
I am as anxious as all of you to find out the real truth, and my female intuition tells me what we have heard so far is way far from being factual!
