LL, Regarding question #2: You illustrate perfectly the rationale of my complaint! Thank you. What Rebecca told her sister Snow about the Shacknai family member attempting suicide shortly before Max's death would be considered "hearsay". Hearsay is not only unreliable its inadmissible in...

Two other interesting tidbits in the "document dump". 1. In the police summary there is mention of a prior CPS report regarding Max in Arizona. Who alerted CPS to Max there? Whose care was he in when that alert was made? In many cases a teacher or person outside the family makes the report...

Lat had met Wendi Adelson through Dan Markel one time in Washington DC. He mentions this in an article posted a few months back. He may not practice law right now, but he has been a federal prosecutor and practiced law for a few firms. See his bio here: Managing Editor David Lat David Lat...

I agree with you here. By all accounts Max sounded wonderful and the world has lost an amazing soul. Rebecca was also loved and is missed dearly. Both families are grieving. Both families have time and time again been denied a second look at each case by LE. In fact both Dina and the Zahaus...

Rebecca hurt Max and then wanted to frame Dina for her murder? Because Rebecca blamed Dina for the fact that Jonah wouldn't marry her? Jonah's close family friend told the press he was planning to marry Rebecca...

All the more reason to get to the bottom of both these mysterious deaths. God speed to both sides getting the answers denied to them by LE. The McStays finally had an arrest, so there is hope.

If your line of reasoning is correct, then LE correctly dismissed Dina's efforts to re open Max's case. I disagree. I strongly believe Max's case should have been reopened. You may want to watch the CNN special about the McStay case. It aired for the first time last night. The SDSO came off...

I'm sorry I disagree with you here from a place of polite debate on my part. It does matter what a Dina and Nina knew and when. Both gave lengthily interviews stating detailed accounts of how they thought Max was going to be fine. If it is proven otherwise, it lies in direct conflict as to...

IMO Jonah believes he is helping Adam out, not throwing him "under the bus". Isn't he helping pay for Adam's defense? Just MOO

Link to the actual show and time stamp where she supposedly states this. Otherwise it's not corroborated and cannot be stated as fact.

Where did you find this information? Provide a link to anywhere that corroborates Rebecca having called Mary before Jonah following Max's accident. If your an insider with relevant information I believe you must be vetted in order to make such claims.

It would have to be someone obsessive enough to have actually COUNTED the number of demands as "130".

Why was the front doorbell and front door never dusted for Nina's fingerprints or handprints? On the night in question, eyewitnesses claimed to see Dina. The day Rebecca's body was found NINA told police it was SHE not Dina seen at the front door. In interviews NINA stated she rang the doorbell...

Really? I guess you must have missed the many attempts and websites promoted by a Dina begging for attention and money. IMO Dina and Nina together have had plenty of splashy fundraiser parties, and begged for donations for "Maxies house" far more than anything the Zahaus have done. IMO...

Can someone explain what this means? Are the cases dismissed?
