But see, as crazy as all this sounds...it's even crazier IMO to think someone could have set all this up to point to Doug.
He did it IMO.
Crazy is a state of mind. Crazy comes in all shapes and sizes too. It depends largely on the viewpoint of the person who is committing the act and what they believe their motives are. People do strange things and this case especially shows us that things are often not what they really seem.
In my opinion...whatever has happened in Venus Stewart's case is a direct result of the "criminal" allegations that went back and forth, the tit-for-tat, as some have called it. But these are not allegations that can be thrown out there for casual consumption or on a whim without expecting some kind of blowback, hurt feelings, or even crazy behavior to follow.
From what we know, the criminal "allegations" were a two way street. There could be any number of people on either side of the equation who feel the children need to be protected from the other party and that any actions to that end are justifiable and even righteous, that's even before you involve religion. (if any of them are religious, I have no idea). Heck, some of the people on this thread have become extremely emotional about this case and have no involvement in it. Imagine the disdain that the actual players must have for each other.
There is plenty of crazy to go around in this case...and it's not the people who are in here thinking diligently about all the known facts of the case.
IMO Doug would have a hard time not wanting to hurt someone who he thought may have "done something criminal" around his children. I would also think Doug would have a hard time not wanting to hurt someone who falsely accused him of hurting one of his own children. I also think that Larry would have a hard time not wanting to hurt Doug if he falsely accused him of doing something criminal, which Venus notes revealed, Doug did. I also think if Doug believed his accusations were true, he'd have a hard time watching his wife take off and return to the person's house he made the criminal allegations against if he believed whatever it was, was true.
There is too much that is unknown at this point to make any more sense of it. But none of it can be a surprise given the sensitive nature of "criminal" allegations and the fact that these people are all emotionally vested and have been for years.
I'm on the fence waiting for the next big shocker to come out in an article in the press followed by DS still walking around free.
There's your crazy. MOO
