Good Evening, Sleuthers! I'm reading back through the thread and it appears a new female AP (not the coworker named by the prosecutor) has come forward. Is this correct or am I misinterpreting?

This is my first post. My husband has been filling me in on the progress here, and it seemed like there were some medical questions with which I could help -- I'm an Obstetrician-Gynecologist.

Still, if their income really was $140,000/yr. combined, that sounds like it ought to be doable to me. (This is not a legal opinion.) I guess it depends on the type of debt and the nature of the demands by creditors. As Dave Ramsey says, you eat 'beans and rice' and 'rice and beans' until you get it paid down.

Maybe @MerryB can interpret the bankruptcy tea leaves for us.

I thought the same thing. With Dave Ramsey's program, it was doable.

There is an article in the Daily Mail but I need to confirm with moderator if we can link the article.

Hi, glad you’re here! My first question is about strangulation. Does it always leave characteristic marks on the neck? Is it possible to determine what size the hands were that did it?

 

[MerryB]

We are supposed to believe that the day after he sees his wife brutally kill his baby girls, that he decides to wear the gift she brought him the week before?

In a way, this is kind of a clue that she wasn't the killer.

Good point!

Here's a SS of where AB says there is a camera on the oil tanks

That is one video I would not want SW's family to see. Heartbreaking

Luckily, that question doesn't come up much in my work. I might not be the best to answer that question!

Hi DrW! Do you happen to know what color the skin of the face and body would be post-strangulation in a child who is 4?

Board moves super fast! I thought I had just missed one on Fentanyl abuse.

If you did so did I . It is moving fast

I think most of the questions were geared towards how Lupus would affect SW's pregnancy.

I thought the same thing. With Dave Ramsey's program, it was doable.

I agree it def would have been doable. But IMO some people would prefer to just wipe out their debt and start over instead of taking responsibility for their situation. Not saying that’s how SW and Cw felt, but perhaps.

I wish I could -- sounds like a pathologist would be helpful for that type of question. I'm best with female physiology and pregnancy.

 

[MCDRAW]

Thank you. So, it would appear that numerous articles were incorrect that CW was arraigned. Holy cow.

Wow!

@DrWander Would you be willing to give us your opinion on THRIVING during a high risk pregnancy? I’m especially interested in the effect caffeine might have, particularly in the 1st trimester, on someone at risk for miscarriage & hypertension.
Thank you & welcome to WS!

Am I missing something? If SW had just strangled Bella she wouldn't be blue. The body is still warm for up to 3 hrs. after death. So if he really did see her blue, then he must have killed her.

Actually, your face does turn blue when choked for a few, so yes (happened to my niece when she was CeCe's age - choked on food and was 1 minute from death.) But, I think he knew she turned blue because he strangled her.
