Im thinking Jon Benet Ramsey (may be wrong though)

Yesh that is who I meant.

 

[Limaes]

Yes - I've thought before that it was kinda nervous and had been thinking of posting about it because of my own experiences.

I know I've kissed my partner kinda desperately when I've been going away somewhere I've been apprehensive about, and become physically clingy when worried/upset about things (thank god he's a real cuddler anyway). Observers might view it as sexual, but internally it's like I'm just trying to disappear into his arms and hide from the world.

Well there ya go...I thought you were male for some reason :waitasec:

MAybe he is ...it only said partner! Keep up the sleuthing!

I am not one to become too emotionally involved in other peoples matters, but I tell you what... Those pictures of the girls, especially the one kneeling- oh boy did that tug at my heart strings! :-(

I'm the same. I dont think ive even been too involved in any case (except this one).....So many of my friends were into the one where the Darcy Freeman was thrown off the bridge....and same group into the lady who was murdered in Ashwood at the end of last year. Im not sure why, but it was this one that got too me. Hubby, who got to know the AWFUL (inside) intricacies of the Daniel Valerio case, was overwhelmed by that case. I tend to avoid the details of child murders, too sickening for me.

Still could be

I'd hate to think that the GBC's parents were actively involved in disposing of her body. Just the thought of it makes me so angry! The thought of them treating the mother of their Grandchildren with such disrespect.

If true, then those :censored:'s deserve to rot in jail!

Thanks Neuromancer

I'm no expert but what I see is: worried eyebrows, a dash of anger and annoyance and heaps of supressed smiles specially when being hugged by people (why does he feel like smiling? this shouldn't be funny maybe he likes the attention). Wish I could watch a much longer video...:maddening:

The facial expression of smiling is actually the same as fear.

There's also these AAP photos - the watermark is obvious on the reel but if you double click on pics it is removed.

I find the stance (crossed arms - defensive) and look of the middle daughter at her father's hands curious. #just saying

These are just so terribly sad!!

Poor Neuromancer......We have really put her or him on the spot now.

We love you no matter which way you bat.

oh how utterly 'horrid and stayed' mama and papabear look in the funeral pictures. I also think sunglasses at a funeral (even when outside) are disrespectful. I think its kind of an unwritten rule that close family should never wear them to be honest (mafia tossers aside of course).
other non-family mourners could probably pull it off and go unnoticed but family wearing them is a bit of a no no in my world.
or perhaps unless you are hiding something behind those eyes.

I wore sunglasses to my own fathers funeral. At the time I didnt give a flying fridge who it offended and I still dont. People judge for anything you do so i did what I wanted at the time and coped the only way I knew how, and that was by hiding. I didnt want anyone looking at me, talking to me, feeling sorry for me. I just wanted to hide. I was just discussing it with my bf today and Im pretty sure I didnt take them off during the service either. I was the closest to my Dad out of anyone there, so if my sunnies offended anyone, who cares, thats their problem. I wasnt there to socialise, I was there for my Dad not them. Just sayin. I cannot believe people are dissecting people at a funeral, now THAT is horrid.

Hehe. Funny how we build mental images of each other, well I do!

I think both NBC & EBC are wearing bi-focals by the looks of it, hence it looking like they have sunglasses on as the glasses adjust depending on the lighting.....

LOL it was the "thank god he's a real cuddler anyway" but you're right maybe he is :giggle:

I actually thought sunglasses were neither here nor there re funerals.

 

[MissPiggy]

Imagine losing your mother under such awful circumstances - to see those girls mourn their mother really breaks my heart. How would they cope if they knew who killed her?? Losing your mother at such an early age and under these cirumstances is absolutely tragic. The only thing worse would be not having a father as well and knowing what really happened to their mother. Those children are going to need alot of TLC and therapy for the rest of their lives. When this is all over I really hope those girls have a happy full life .......... so bloody awful

 

[CaseClosed]

Possibly, who knows. But then how do we know how many it took, cause we don't know what happened. Could be a conspiracy and maybe there were many involved in as far as knowledge or planning.. Yes could be far fetched too.

Yes, we don't know, but I subscribe to the KISS principle. Doubt there was a conspiracy or pre-planning.

Fair call, it was your dad after all. completely up to you. I was asked by my siblings a few years ago if i was taking mine off and said absoolutely
this was not their father nor do i have a problem judging this lot I can asssure you.....

:what:
Hi Neuromancer. Loved your post and my response was only to highlight how easy we jump to conclusions. Love your work! :truce:

 

[Thinking]

It's a simple, grassroots, practical explanation and as a few others have said sometimes the simplest explanation is the correct one. The details of how a body was disposed of and other extraneous factors may vary, but I believe this is the guts of what happened. At another time I'll explain a bit more about my thoughts based on personal experience. But I'll say it doesnt even take a lot of screaming and accusations to inflame someone of a certain type - like a narcissist or sociopath. Even a calm mention of something they don't want to hear (which needs to be discussed) can evoke a wild rage. Yet those same people can seem very sweet and mild mannered when they are out in public.

Thanks for this itsthevibe - I'm hearing you. I was just wondering, I recall very early on when the search was still on for Allison, you mentioned that you had a feeling how it was going to turn out and you didn't want to say anything at that time. I hope I'm remembering it correctly. I'm interested to know whether what happened is what you were expecting?
