#JulieSchenecker points gun at her son in van and shoots window. He cries put it away and she points at his head and shoots him dead

WOW!!! I am rarely stunned or surprised in these things about what is said, but this is stunning. I actually gasped. Can you imagine?

I have said (in a joking way) that I understand the the inclination to want to strike out, slap someone when you are a parent and just at the end of your rope, but you don't do it (what good would it do?)

But to point a gun at anyone, let alone your own child, show them what you are about to do? You have to have ice water running through your veins. That is not a confused woman.

#JulieSchenecker had suicidal thoughts and felt there was no way out. Her family was continuing on with their lives #Unbelievable

Time for testimony- after the break

Thanks for your hard work Popsicle. You seem to be everywhere.

Okay, I just finished watching opening statements. The prosecution seemed to lack a certain flow but, IMO, made their point by the end. Basically, she might appear to have been disturbed but prior to the act this was clearly planned. The defense seemed more articulate but I felt they came close to blaming not only parker but also calyx in their arguments. It seemed like, it's everyone's fault but Julie's. As a former soldier and military wife myself, I'm having a tough time being objective here. I don't doubt her problems with mental health issues but she seems vindictive and irresponsible. Plus, I am a mom of teenagers. Calyx might have said things that were disrespectful but the penalty for that is not death!!! I understand this must be hard for Julie's family but I can't understand supporting someone who murdered their own kids. Do they think she should just be released?? Ugh, sorry to rant but these are just my initial gut reactions.

I didn't want to interrupt all these helpful tweet posts. thanks for doing such a great job! :bow:

I am astonished at what. I am "hearing". I feel even worse knowing the children, or at least Beau, knew what was coming. sad, and upsetting. :cry:

I can already hear the crinkling of those evidence bags while being opened.

I can already hear the crinkling of those evidence bags while being opened.

:floorlaugh: I hate it when the witness seems to take his/her 15 minutes of fame with opening it up and then we all get to see the damning paperclip...or something else equally earth shattering.

The officer looked through and verified photos from #JulieSchenecker home

aliciabal the defense did make it sound like everyone else was responsible except their defendant. I was waiting to hear the husband's mother being thrown under the bus. I can't believe the defense took a shot at the dead teenage girl. NOTHING the teenager said made her deserve getting shot to death by her mother.

Poor Beau- to know his mother was going to shoot him- horrible.

Hi everyone. I'm late.

#JulieSchenecker was a priority 4 call, a welfare check. She had sent a possible suicidal email to her mother. Police were checking on them

I hadn't heard this before. I'm assuming that the defendant had to tell someone this horrible fact. I just lost lot of sympathy for JS and her depression. Was her heart filled with such a blind rage that she couldn't respond to her son's tears?
