Hi Mel. I was looking for thread number 5 and since I'm on my son's netbook with an itty bitty screen and even smaller keyboard to type on I can't seem to find it today.
We had poster that posted that she/he had remembered that rumor (JVDS having an incident that required him to have some sort of psych care) originated from JDVS' parents during an interview (I don't know if it was written or video interview) during the Holloway case.
I can't go back and find that but there's a clue right there if anyone wants to go back and comb through the past five years of interviews with his parents.
I would try to search but I can't until a few more weeks. If no one finds it I'll be happy to try to find it also once I get my new home set up.
