IMHO she told him she was leaving him and he snapped. Afterward he realized he had two options - blame it on an intruder, or blame it on her. Given the CCTV in the lobby, blaming an intruder wouldn't be prudent. It also would lead to the establishment of a crime scene with all that entails. But...

The stepfather is absolutely not culpable. That's like saying a DV victim is partly to blame because "she provoked him into punching her." Firing a weapon into another car is illegal and unacceptable, regardless of the feelings that the other driver's behavior may provoke.

Hunting is not allowed after sunset.

I don't think sexual crimes are increasing necessarily, but that women are more likely to report them rather than stay silent. IMHO MOO.

So she allegedly killed the father of her children (JW) by cutting off his head because she was afraid that him moving in with her and her husband, who is JW's son from a previous relationship, would disrupt her family's life. Her husband is her children's stepfather but also their half...

So she is 22, about to have her third child and yet cannot care for children. <sarcasm> It's so great that her parents/family members/anyone is looking out for her and ensuring that she has reliable birth control.</sarcasm>

This case reinforces to me that white male privilege is still going strong. Imagine if CS had been Parker's stay-at-home mother, rather than her father. Would a judge have shown the same leniency? I don't think so. Grown men's abhorrent behavior is excused and glossed over. After submitting...

I'm still shocked that AB is not in custody.

Why on earth can't LE do something? Sounds like Ashlee did not have legal custody but took Melodee anyway and was the last person M was seen with. And Ashlee is now refusing to cooperate? In what universe is none of this illegal / worthy of arrest

Both things can be true - it is a DV-associated homicide AND he loved her, grieved her loss, and had pet names for her. ' And it really doesn't matter if anyone else saw any evidence of stress or tension or DV in their relationship! Abusers are very good at hiding it. But EG was less so - she...

The idea that this was a suicide has never made sense. It was based on believing SG's assertion that EG was in the apartment alone and alive when he left for the gym, and that the door was locked from the inside when he returned. It is not based on any evidence, biomechanics, or physics, that's...

Could she have left extra early to hike part of that loop first, before heading south to her next guesthouse? If guesthouse to guesthouse was 17 km, that could take anywhere from 6-9 hours depending on trail difficulty. Maybe she'd figured out how long it would take her and thought she had time...

I wasn't implying someone killed her. Not sure how that would happen either - she would clearly struggle or fight if someone tried to stuff her head first into a rain barrel. Was just saying that she texted at 2 pm and then...what? Instantly went out and got herself stuck in a rain barrel and...

He shot four people and stole two cars, and was arrested instead of shot by LE. They found him walking naked through a neighborhood and Tased him to bring him into custody. He also has light skin. Wonder if he would have made it out alive if he was non-white. IMHO unlikely.
