I may be misreading your question, so apologies in advance if I did and am telling you something you already know. Paradoxical undressing is not uncommon in late stage hypothermia. I can't explain it in medical terms, but I imagine it is similar to when you have been in the cold for some...

At 5:40 p.m., Dylan tells his friend that his plane has landed, and Ryan asks him how the flight went. “Weired my head went numb from all the vibrations,” Dylan replies. http://www.durangoherald.com/article/20121215/NEWS01/121219687

Or different perspectives. I would call two months between visits a very long time for a parent and child. However, iirc that even MR has said he did not see Dylan as regularly the last couple of years due to his work schedule. moo

Because there are a lot of people like him who HAVE killed someone-and in particular a member of their family. I don't know if every state has a yearly femicide report, but ours does, and it is easy to find online. I also know a couple of someones just like him who have not killed anyone...

I think the Disney movie reference pertained to when Dylan was home and alive and safe, but everything went bad when her baby went missing. I sort of think the point was that Disney movies are not supposed to go bad. Hope that helps your confusion. ETA--I see in the time it took me to post...

Personally, I wouldn't describe being kidnapped at 3, put in a trunk and driven 50 miles away to be left in a trash bin with no adult comfort as "unharmed", but yes, one of the toddlers had been choked. "Klunder put the girls into a trunk and drove them to a secluded area in Northwood, about...

Yes, and with such poor cell coverage at MRs house, it stands to reason-at least in my mind- that an almost 14 year old boy would have known how to call friends and especially his own father's cell number from a landline.

Agreed. Forgiveness has little to do with the transgressor, and nothing to do with excusing the transgression. Forgiveness frees the forgiver.

Had the girls' remains (hate typing those words) been released by the time of the memorial service? I can't remember. Unrelated to Liz and Lyric, but a bit of info about winter v. spring burials, and why it may have been necessary to wait: "Deep snow makes it nearly impossible to find grave...

BBM. There was some discussion earlier that there was no such thing, but you may have missed it.

"That does a pretty good job of summing it up. “Kindness” covers all of my political beliefs. No need to spell them out. I believe that if, at the end, according to our abilities, we have done something to make others a little happier, and something to make ourselves a little happier, that is...

BBM. Sorry to backtrack, but is there a link for that? I hadn't seen any comments by LE about the poly experience of either parent. With the exception of clearing up the matter of the incompetent polygrapher(paraphrased), of course. Judging by MR's own comments, I thought it seemed probable...
