Thanks, mzmarymac!

I hate to ask, but… I’ve come to this case only recently. Within this past day or so, I read that JM (I think) claimed she had originally done her ‘hos long’ search at the behest of Karen Read. Eventually she admitted that was untrue. Was this something that happened in trial or before? I’m...

And that red plastic shards from something were stored in the same bag as the sweatshirt?

I wonder if the steps from the basement to the cellar door are brick? Would not be uncommon in New England.

As to whether some find her unlikable…I wonder if it’s due to a so-called ‘class’ difference. Karen is very well-educated, a wealthy and self-made woman. After living in New England for many decades, I’ve noticed a “you think you’re better than me?” attitude among some blue collar types when...

I’ve only followed this trial casually, but….I seem to remember that tail light debris was included in the bag that held the victim’s dried clothing. (Which could of course explain why a minuscule fragment of red plastic was imbedded in his shirt.) Does anyone else recall this?

Am I the only one who thinks this group of 40-something adults are reminiscent of a group of middle schoolers? Oh, do you like me? I think (man’s name) likes you! Let’s all go to a bar and get totally blitzed, then let’s drive drunkenly to someone’s house and drink a lot more. Hope (woman’s...

As a born Southerner living in New England for many a year, I can opine that a southern accent is not always well-received by Northern listeners, so the listening jury may already have been a bit skeptical of this expert.

I have several relatives in their 80’s and 90’s. They go to various doctors, dentists, opticians, testing centers frequently. It seems that surely GH would have been seen by a medical professional over the last several months. Although they could have some sort of concierge medical plan, and...

Well, this is a pretty sweet story, and the kids are all cute! Hope it’s a truly happy story. https://people.com/octomom-natalie-nadya-suleman-rare-interview-mom-of-14-exclusive-8779583

I haven’t read much of this thread, so I don’t know, but: could the guy be addicted to painkillers or other opiates? It’s not unusual for a person with major pain to be given strong drugs, and when he/she was no longer being prescribed, to seek street drugs, including heroin.

Nice story about a sad topic: https://www.wave3.com/2023/12/27/tommy-smothers-smothers-brothers-comedy-duo-dies/
