My Darlie did it theory

I think what you're saying in regards to revenge on Darin could be a possibility. But in my book it may further my thought that Darlie wouldn't want to be divorced and straddled with 3 kids on a much smaller income and a much different lifestyle than what she was accustomed to. She would most likely have to work.

Straddled with 1 child not 3 and with child support and 1/2 of everything, the business, the house, her car- Darin had one of his own even if it was in need of repair. Boat etc. She keeps and doesn't have to split her jewelry, clothes and many of the furnishings. Personal items and gifts from a spouse aren't considered community property in a divorce.
 
What should prove to most people that Darlie killed her two boys, is the absence of anything(I mean anything)that is evidence that anyone else is responsible.

I don't know why people find it so upsetting that a women killed her children. It has happened(with great regret)many, many times since then all over the USA and the world. Men kill their wives, relatives, kids and so do women.

I have no doubt that these two murders were intended to benefit Darlie in some way, shape or form.

As to "Oh absolutely. Add to that the fact that she was, according to her, a light sleeper. Was dealing with a very young child and probably wasn't getting enough sleep.

Financial problems;
marital problems;
may believe husband is or was unfaithful;
lack of sleep;
feelings of inadequacy about her looks/weight;
may be losing business.

I'd say this would be enough to set just about anyone over the edge.


I respectfully disagree, I have known people with more problems then Darlie and they did not go out and kill anyone ever. I feel that with all of the problems that Darlie faced, she thought she could solve them and make her life better by killing her two boys. That would be the way Darlie thought, because of course Darlie can only understand the self centered and self absorbed thoughts of Darlie that only benefit Darlie.

There is no excuse nor any circumstances, besides self defense that "can explain" or justify murder.
 
Hey Anais - The light sleeper part has ALWAYS bugged me. Reason being, the simple fact that I am considered a DEEP sleeper but let one of my kids fuss in the middle of the night and I wake RIGHT UP. The phone could ring, someone could knock on my door and I won't hear it but let one my babies cry, get up (sleep walks) and I am wide awake.

Question - What do you think about all the Dallas DNA issues. Another man has been freed due to DNA evidence clearing him. Apparently Dallas County has the highest rate in the state of Texas. Does it question your stand on Darlie's case? Jeanna what is your opinion about what is happening there in Dallas County, if I may ask?

I do think the problems with regard to DNA testing are probably from older cases. Some convictions came when DNA testing was in its infancy and the tests conducted now are far more reliable than when the process first began. I've always been of the opinion that ANY death penalty case where there is untested or undertested evidence should have those issues resolved before a date for execution is given. There is no reason now that we have the technology to not do this. After all, we're asking the State to take a life. I don't think that should be done if there is any question left on the table and DNA testing could answer that question. It doesn't at all question where I stand in the Routier case becase she wasn't convicted based on DNA evidence. She's been given a defense that any other criminal defendant dreams about. When her conviction and death sentence are ultimately upheld and she's executed, I think that everyone concerned will know its because she's truly guilty, not because there is a tube of untested DNA sitting in a fridge somewhere.
 
I'll go you one further, Anais, and it took me a long, long time to accept this.

I don't believe Darlie planned to commit suicide, and here's why:

Murder/suicide. Darlie stabs the boys, then cuts herself. Lots of blood on her hands and body at this point. She chickens out, can't kill herself, and decides to blame it on an intruder. Goes to the garage, and cuts the screen.

But there's no blood in the garage. No bloody footprints, not a drop or a smear on the screen or the window frame. That strongly suggests that she cut the screen to implicate an intruder BEFORE any blood was shed. Which means that Darlie planned it all ahead of time. She cut the screen, and then stabbed her sons and herself.

That was the prosecution's theory, based on the blood evidence.

I don't want to believe it - that a mother could be so lacking in human emotion that she would kill her own flesh and blood for attention, but there it is. Unless I'm missing something and if I am, please tell me.[/quote

Two words, Diane Downs. Of course she shot her kids to get a man, not for attention. Premeditated it for weeks....now that's cold blooded.
 
This has always also been a major problem for me!

The simple fact that anyone could "sleep" through the horrific stabbing of one's own children. There is simply no amount of money or explanation that can get me to sway my thoughts on the subject!

What do you all think of that?

LOl, that's why she invented the Traumatic Amnesia. Her "asleep" story doesn't hold water.
