Raven's had other relationships in the past and the girls scrammed after a while.
He's good, if you know Raven, he's very very good at what he does. He's a sociopath and gets people to believe him, believe in him.
If Auria's biological Dad was such a horrible guy, like Vnay's told people, why would she get involved with Raven? Did she bother to listen to the 911 tape? Did she bother to even read up on the case? Did she call investigators? Did her parents?
She knew enough about things to play games by putting baby items on her registry.....knowing full well Janet was pregnant when she was murdered. Why not really investigate, for her DAUGHTER'S sake. Very selfish IMO, to put her daughter in jeopardy!
The invitation is tacky in light of the fact that Raven has not been to his wife's grave since when? How many times has he been there? ONCE?
He has not taken a lie detector test, tried to pass off Janet's death as a suicide, he has been dating since immediately after the murder, he has got on COUNTLESS road trips and vacations, since immediately after the murder, he did not go to any of the vigils, he has done nothing to "find his wife's murderer". he tried to pass off the embezzlement on Janet, he tried to make it seem as though he was the one that was into his faith, even on NC Wanted, he lied to people about going on a mission, he had several affairs on Janet, on April 26, 2006, the one year anniversary of Janet's murder, while other people were in Durham, NC for a Candlelight Vigil for Janet, Raven was sitting in an attorney's office filing bankruptcy. He worked for Canyon Cycles and we hear that he stolen from there too.
Let's not forget all the vacations and biking trips he took since the murder....
Those are just partial reasons why I think the invitation is tacky.
