I'm very curious about what Prior is going to do with the house and property. Outside of renting it, who would want it?
There are plenty who aren't bothered by a property's history. There's been discussions in other threads about how some murder properties get knocked down, and others go on to be used by people again, just cleaned up and a new family moved in. The brutality of the crime doesn't necessarily correlate with how likely it is for one or the other outcome.I'm very curious about what Prior is going to do with the house and property.

Just watched. Summer is a remarkable woman in that she was able to face reality so quickly, unlike Emma. I think a big difference there is Summer's anguished phone call with Lori, after the kids were found, where Summer just poured pure out grief and anger. That may have helped her move on to being able face the awful truth. I don't think Emma could go there, emotionally. Obviously, jmo and my take on what I've seen. I so wish that Emma (and all of Chad's kids) could spend a couple of days with Summer, Adam and Colby so they could be set free and move forward. It's so heartbreaking. They never asked for this
I've given thought to this. I have some unpopular opinions about the property. All states are different but I think most of them have a requirement for realtors/sellers to inform people if a death (or multiple) occurred on the property. But even if Idaho doesn't require this, I don't see buyers not finding out about it.I'm very curious about what Prior is going to do with the house and property.

Wasn't the Idaho 4 murder house razed to the ground before the (Kohberger) trial even started?Many horror houses (or buildings) remain on the market for years before the property is finally sold with the buyer demolishing the home and it either remaining a vacant lot or the buyer rebuilding a new structure there. For example, John Wayne Gacy's horror house was torn down and a townhouse was built in its place. It was for sale recently. I think the first house he lived in with his wife and kids is still there, and was for sale recently, but I can't find the article I saw about that first family house he owned.
The apartments where Dahmer lived were torn down and are still a vacant lot (with lush grass and trees). I remember reading somewhere that some of the victims'' families were wanting to turn it into a memorial park at one time.
Ariel Castro's home was razed and AFAIK is probably still a vacant lot.
The Turpin house has been in auction limbo for a while.
Many FLDS-related houses have been turned into (hilarious) hotels and shelters for people.
So now we wonder what will happen to the Daybell property, Lori and Alex's apartments, heck even their house in Arizona. We also wonder what will happen to that giant compound Jodi Hildebrandt built. As for the latter I suggested it'd probably make a really good hotel or an actual, good foster home. I mean it's got a pool.
I did see that when pulling those articles to use as examples. Just didn't pick it for my examples. It looks like the families weren't exactly happy with the house being demolished because they were understandably concerned about any missed evidence being lost.Wasn't the Idaho 4 murder house razed to the ground before the (Kohberger) trial even started?
Quite surprised. Found Summer authentic and likeable. Quite an informative interview. As Nate said, plenty more questions he would have liked to ask - wish we could have heard more about AlexSummer Shiflet interview.
Yeah, I watched it on my phone, and my partner was sitting across the room just doing her own thing, and at the end, she piped up and said, "She speaks really well, I wonder what she does for a living," and I had to admit I didn't know. I knew Lori did pageants, but she did them as an adult, and she always had a manic, slightly hysterical edge to her speech that Summer doesn't have. I didn't know if Summer was just one of those people who naturally speaks well. LDS get practice from very young speaking in public, but as we see from Chad, who mumbles, is hesitant, and is the opposite of dynamic, that doesn't automatically make you a good speaker.Quite surprised.

A bigger problem seems to be true-crime fans who cruise by and even get out to inspect the property. The Daybell place is isolated enough that this, if it took place, would make for real intrusion.There are plenty who aren't bothered by a property's history.

MOO
Exactly!Yep. Agree. Typical high-control group nonsense. Same old story, same old song and dance...
She is a victim. I know she is in a very different place than she was in May, 2020.Quite surprised. Found Summer authentic and likeable. Quite an informative interview. As Nate said, plenty more questions he would have liked to ask - wish we could have heard more about Alex
I can only imagine how painful the whole case would have been to sit through for her, while the public and the press were scrutinising every moment, her every facial expression. It's a very painful microscope I doubt most of us could bear. And she has her own family, her own kids to be looking after.She is a victim. I know she is in a very different place than she was in May, 2020.
I am very thankful for her famous, emotional jail house call, which was very important for Lori's conviction. I do wish she had hung around for the parts of Lori's trial for which she was not under subpoena. I wish there had been a few more faces in her tribute to Alex. But that is easy for me to say from behind the keyboard.
That emotional jailhouse call made me think she has a lot of potential to break free of the enmeshed family system she is in.
It's a very long process to get out from family systems or cult organizations which demand exacting loyalty. If Summer wants to do so, I'm sure she can.
MOO
Ah, Nate found one! I know he really wanted to.
