IMO, I believe some are reading too much into this GoFundAccount. Those Accounts are so common and inappropriately used every single day. Go in there an just browse in the system and you will get the jest. I think the Office Staff along with the Business Best Friend/Partner set this up with good intentions to "help" the family. I honestly think the $1MM was an arbrtrary number and only significant as to being just not classy. Will they raise this, no!!

As as far as Dr. Siever's clinic not accepting insurance, there are a BUNCH of wellness clinics that do her line of treatments which include hormone replacement and balance (like the Holtze Clinic here in Houston, TX) that only takes cash, check or credit card when service is rendered. These types of services are not covered by insurance and only because the prescriptions/vitamins and treatments are usually compounded and usually only the prescription medicine would be covered. Some types of these treatments are holistic. Dr. Siever's clinic if anything like the Holtze Clinic was bringing in some bank without hassling with insurance companies.

Yes but if your doctor is going away with their family for the weekend and will be returning to the practice/clinic on Monday, and their going away isn't going to in any way impact appointments, there would be no need for them to tell their patients "I'm going away for the weekend with my family to such and such event." I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere, when they left for CT. Maybe it was Friday after the last appointment/clinic closed for the weekend?

I worked in a large doctors office with several doctors. Believe me, there are patients that would know when the doctor was out of town. If they call in for appointment, doctor unavailable. Even if the patient says, oh Dr can fit me in. No Dr is out of town. Especially in her practice, the very "homey" atmosphere, I bet many did know.

there are two options at that particular fundraising site - one is the all-or-nothing campaign for people who have a deadline, the other is for people with no deadline & they get every penny donated, minus 8% the site claims - so with no deadline, the site could be up indefinitely

I don't know how to word this as tactfully as I intend to............but if the fundraising goal of a whopping 1 million dollars was intended to replace the doctor's earnings over a period of time, well........why would anyone (the spouse, the business colleague/LMT who wrote the blurb in the g0fundme page) expect that other people should essentially finance the surviving spouse and his 2 childrens' lives? It's not like the husband was some disabled individual who would not be capable of finding another job and support his 2 children? Being in the health care field myself, working with and being friends with many doctors, I know for a fact that if any of them were to pass unexpectedly (whether murder, accident, otherwise), their surviving spouse would not EVER go for ANYONE setting up an online fundraising acct.......not even for basic funeral expenses.

Now I see in the comments on the doctor's page, there are a few expressing shock at the amount of the fundraising goal (no doubt), and someone made the comment that *if* the set goal is not reached, whatever monies are donated will just sit there, non-accessible............is this true?

sorry but how do you 'know for a fact' that family & friends are reading here? no offense intended but while TOS restricts us from posting gossip and sleuthing innocent parties, it also requires that we not post 'insider' statements without being verified by admin

most of us have the same goal and that is justice for the victim

Precisely.

Catching up on this thread today has been really upsetting. [....] I know for a fact family and friends of Teresa are reading here [....] Almost everybody here is focused on one person.... [....] I feel like there is to I'm just very concerned about the content and direction focus has gone.

snip; and bbm

As LadyL points out, this does run afoul of TOS, viz.: "[D]on't drop hints or post on the board that you know something or are privy to inside information but you won't or can't post it. If you can't post it, don't!"

If you are an insider in terms of this case, please become a verified one through the WS process here.

Also, to write that "almost everybody here is focused on one person...." suggests that presuming has taken the place of reading carefully. This technique might help with the upset by assisting with focus.

The clinic nurse says in this interview here that SHE did drive to the doctor's house, upon learning from a phone call to the office, that doctor's block was taped off/police everywhere:

Sorry I should have been more clear...early on there were a variety of reports of how the Dr office found out that she had passed. One report said someone from the office had gone by her home because she has not come into work. One report said someone from the office called LE to do a welfare check because she had not arrived at work . So this video gave the nurses vantage point of how the office was notified and when she went to the home... And that had to be after le put crime tape around home.
So this video gave us our first info on how this all occurred

 

[arizona sunshine]

So who called the LE?

 

[LayzeeDayzee]

So there is a 3rd online fundraiser, on indieg0g0, a college fund for the 2 daughters, with fundraising goal of $20,000.

So people can make donations to a fund set up through a particular bank (allegedly, according to MSM, set up by a patient who wants to remain anonymous!)...the g0fundme fundraiser, with the $1 million dollar goal........and this one. Any others out there?

Maybe it's just me but there is something ?off to me about the nurse's interview.

Agreed!! I thought she said she already has a new job too!

 

[MinnesotaMary]

anyone know what 'condition corrected' means?

"Condition Corrected" probably means something along the lines that the po po asked the neighbor to remove their "I Hate You Neighbor-Across-The-Street" sign (front law, right at edge of roadway):dance: and resident said 'OK officer, I will...'

I feel uncomfortable even posting this thought, but it would explain quite a bit. Could she have been involved with someone and needed to talk to him...possibly breaking things off. To avoid neighbors seeing a car in the driveway, maybe she picked him up somewhere and brought him back to her house. A fight may have started in the car; hence, evidence in the van. Possibly the argument led into the house and dogs didn't bark because this was not a stranger to them. Perhaps the women she worked with were aware of this other person and had reason to be quickly concerned and felt it was safest to call police instead of chekcing on own. To add to this, maybe he did not kill her at first and left. Possibly came back in own car and that is when the murder took place. And in the end, maybe he is the one that called to report her home needing to be checked.

Possible, but not the kind of scenario books and movies would be written about.....I think it's more complicated than that.

Dr. Moroni on NG saying he's always suspicious when a body is cremated! Hmmm

I had already signed off when NG came on. I went :jawdrop: when it came out hubby had her cremated. Hinky meter running amok:freakedout:

LE taking the vehicle: just a thought, perp knew when she would be home, got into the home, staged broken door, hid in garage, I don't know why tho:thinking:, ambushed her when she pulled into garage.left DNA. We don't know where her body was found. He /she may have forced her in the house:moo:

 

[Luvrosco]

Am I correct that the van that LE impounded was the family's. Do we know how she got home from the airport? Car service, she left the van in long term parking and drove herself home,or did someone pick her up?

Sheriff Mike Scott said 'when all the facts come out, books and movies will be written about the crime'.

-No it's not

Pffffft... no doubt a quickly scripted bad movie from Lifetime.:moo:

Dr. Moroni on NG saying he's always suspicious when a body is cremated! Hmmm

I've read about a lot of murder victims or major disasters being cremated. One reason is that the remains are terribly mutilated by the murder. When my niece was murdered, her mother wanted an open casket/burial. Her surviving children could not get her to understand the terrible mutilation to her head. They chose cremation to wipe the memory of her appearance away.

 

[DEPUTYDAWG]

Honestly with that statement from the sheriff my head is all over the place with this one! I have imagined the wildest things happening.

So true! Usually, I'm a "it's simpler than you think" kinda gal, but apparently from what the Sheriff has stated, I guess we need to let our minds wander on this one, LOL

 

[pferrin]

So who called the LE?

We dont know yet.

 

[CarolinaMoon]

Because the "thanks" button wasn't enough, here comes my post thanking you. I echo this sentiment wholeheartedly.
You could go broke paying for the privilege of her alternative treatments. No insurance accepted...is that because she'd such a vibrantly strong practice that she didn't need the hassle of getting paid through a Blue Cross type thing...or because standard insurance wouldn't cover her type of treatments? Curious. I genuinely don't know how that goes.
I know I pay a lot of money for my excellent health benefits and I'm a big fan of paying copays and not full freight.

Via Kindle, like a true Amazon junkie

Even if the practice accepted insurance, the policy wouldn't cover a great deal of their treatment anyway. Acupuncture is terrific for me. However, for insurance to cover me, the doctor has to have an MD as well as have extensive training. The same holds true for myofascial release. I've had it done for me and it does wonders. Unfortunately, I've only had a limited amount in physical therapy because most practitioners are not covered in insurance policies. The one gal who made it possible to move my arms was transferred out of the PT facility to the hospital.

My mind was was doing Steven Spielberg crazy most of the nite. The 'connectivity' thing has me hooked.

My heart is with those little girls and her family and friends that love her.
