The prosecutors believe that she killed him and dismembered him in their bathroom. Melanie hung herself she stated that it was their luggage not it's the same model as what we own. Her hair was on the duct tape that was the only thing that really linked her to the crime regarding evidence.
There is another thread on Melanie McGuire in the Trials forum. I forgot about this thread. :blushing:Guilty on the murder and dismemberment and gun charges! Not guilty on the drug and obstruction charges. Bail has been revoked and she was led out of the courtroom by bailiff.
youre very welcome!
i saw dribs and drabs of the trial as it went along ..... and i thought if they ever did a movie of it, they should ask mary elizabeth mastroantonio to play melanie ....
what do you think? >>><<>>
exactly .... i remember a couple of the TH's saying the CSI's virtually took the house apart on and off for over a year, and they never found any blood evidence ... they claimed the body was cut up with a riceprocating saw ... but where was it done? no luminol or anything else, not a shred of evidence .... drains ... taking switch plates off the walls, etc. etc., yet they never found a thing in the home to indicate that any crime had occurred there.
that question was never answered, as far as i know.
(my bold) They almost never look creepy to me! What looked creepy to you?--good post--that sums it up--I wonder why she didn't get rid of the computer lol--anyway, my mother's been following this case more than I and she agrees with the verdict--saw Melanie a couple of times on CourtTV--she sure looked creepy to me
Twice her size? Wouldn't that make him 10'4"...J/K!1. he's still twice her size. how did she maneuver him? once he was "dead weight" without leaving any evidence of that activity?
2. so she shoots him in the bathroom and neither her kids nor neighors hear it. but then he falls to the floor. does she start cutting him up right there on the floor?
3. the reciprocating saw makes noise, but her kids didnt wake up and her neighbors didnt hear anything, and that noise would have been going on for a while before the job was done.
4. and there would have been a lot of blood flowing and spraying around ... none found. (and apparently none noticed by her kids)
5. when did she "hang herself" and state it was their luggage? she chose to exercise her fifth amendment right to remain silent, and i'm not aware of any written or recorded statements like that having been admitted into evidence.
6. the hair on the duct tape? did you see the movie "murder by numbers"? with sandra bullock and ryan gosling? if somebody who was close to her (such as a boyfriend with whom she worked and was having an ongoing affair) wanted to set her up because she had jilted him, it would be no problem whatsoever to obtain multiple strands of her hair without her ever being aware of it.
no - she did not take the standTwice her size? Wouldn't that make him 10'4"...J/K!
Are they positive it was a reciprocating saw? Could it have been something else, possibly?
She took the stand, right? Did she take the fifth only for some questions...or do you have to take it for all? How does that work?
I believe they think she did it in the shower and drop cloths were used. The blood was supposedly drained and the reciprocating saw only used to cut the bones. It was said that the cuts above the knee showed that the body was sitting with the knees bent and the saw went straight down somehow making it easier. It was mentioned that she probably shot him that night using a green pillow similar to the ones on her couch because a piece of green fiber was found in the suitcase. They think she cut him up the next day while neighbors were all gone to work. The lady who came to buy the entertainment center said the bathroom smelled like a morgue from chemical cleaning smells. I think Melanie could lift the suitcase with the torso without too much trouble. Maybe she even rigged something to help her but I wonder when she would have done it without being seen by someone.
