Plus EA lied to her about his age & said he was 18, if I remember correctly..
I honestly don't remember. I'll have to check but thought there was lying on both sides about age.

That made me tear up. Christina put the nail in his coffin so to speak. Being the firecracker she was and fighting back, she didn't let him get away with it.This part guts me. My little girl is 8 years old and is terrified of the dark. Christina is someone's little girl. She didn't deserve this. Her poor family.

How do y'all feel about his immediate family not being present the entire trial?

Me too. My heart breaks for her every time I think about it.
ETA: but! She was also "feisty" and strong and because of her probably fighting for her life, she helped to put him away. I truly believe if he didn't have those injuries the case against him wouldn't be as strong

Oh and a huge thank you to TCMom, gigglingtoes, Arkansasmimi, and everyone else who helped tweet, take time out to go be the eyes and ears for those of us who are not local. 💞 Does anyone think he might give up her location if they cut him a deal? Can they give him immunity from further charges? Sorry, now I really want her home.

I sat behind his uncle yesterday who cried the majority of closing arguemwnts and was deep breathing to stop tears.
That is so sad. I'm sure this was devastating to his family. In some way, I consider them additional victims of his heinous crime.
On the news tonight, they showed a video related to another murder in the area recently (Vandagriff). http://www.dallasnews.com/news/crim...g-her-to-drop-stalking-charges-police-say.ece
There's a ton of evidence already amassed on this guy's guilt, and the body of the girl was found.
But the video was eerie, because it showed the (alleged) perp and the (soon-to-be) victim out drinking at a bar together, the night of the murder. Nothing amiss, lots of smiles and chit-chat, and then they left together and next thing you know, she's been found dead and cut into pieces and burned.
Reminded me so much of what happened to CM. Yes EA showed no signs earlier in the evening, which the defense wanted to make into some sort of indicator. But as Vandagriff case reminds us, things can change quickly and that earlier demeanor where the perp looks safe and friendly can turn out to be completely deceptive.

Sorry, I'm older and I along with most of my friends are married to our high school/college sweethearts who are at least 2-3 years older. I don't find problem in that kind of relationship if consenting. But that's how it was back when. Imo
