If they were tightening cables, I wonder if that caused the load to shift to one side such that one support was taking a larger percentage of the bridge's weight.

If you look at the pictures, there are cables between the upper and lower decks of the bridge. That may be what they were referring to.

From the pictures it looks like one of the attachments at the supports failed vs. the walkway collapsing. Although I know was going to be a cable stay bridge but the cables hadn't gone up yet, which meant the walkway was carrying more of the static load than it would once complete. One would...

In all of the pictures the younger children look much healthier than the older children. And the women are all dressed up like little girls. I wouldn't be surprised if the starvation was enforced to keep them all looking like children.

I seriously doubt he made $5 million gambling. He might have had that much in winnings but he probably had at least that much that he paid in. The only ways to make money gambling are blackjack (card counting) and poker. This guy played high limit slots among other things (which no card...

Not really separate. If the car hit something as it was breaking (it appears it hit the floor on the way up) that could have easily bent the beam holding the restraints. It's not going to be designed to take that kind of load.

The rotating part looks like it's free spinning compared to the other videos that have a controlled spin. Could be something in whatever coupling passes torque to the seats in the pendulum that was damaged.

I see a guy going out for a stroll who's a little bit cold. If he's carrying a gun that wouldn't be at all strange for that area (I'm not an insider, but I have family in Delphi and I've spent some time there.)

So they were friends with the Gambles for several years, it would seem. Or at least acquaintances. I'm getting more and more suspicious of Cameron Gamble.

Yeah, that's why he just doesn't seem that suspicious to me. His type is, unfortunately, very very common. I just don't see him as a criminal mastermind. He's an opportunist, sure, but an opportunist who really does see himself as the hero in his own story.

I think the "after 9/11" years as more to make his time in service ambiguous. It's hard to base your whole career on military service if you were only in for two years and got out on medical or something. He's based his entire bio on training he got before even starting his MOS/job. I suspect...

My gut feeling on CG after looking at his resume is that he is a nobody trying to cash in on his military career despite not having any marketable skills. His bio deliberately leaves out military job title, time in service, deployment information, and rank, all of which is a red flag. We do know...

I just feel so bad for the kids. I can't even imagine. Losing their father and then their mother as well because she tried to harm one of them? That's a lot to deal with.

I have Chiari Malformation Type 1. There is a wide spread of severity when it comes to Chiari that isn't necessarily related to herniation depth or anything like that. I had decompression surgery, which is technically brain surgery and sounds quite serious, but I continued to serve on active...
