Poll: Did Darlie Routier murder her children?

[cami]

:innocent:
Purrrrrrrrr...........

Someone call Darlie's defense attys and find out when they are going to file their first fed appeal! I am dying to know!!!!

I was under the impression that it was December. That they had a year to file after the state conviction becomes final? Aren't the Final Findings on the justice site the end of the State appeals? They have something new on the Justice site people. CCA Oral Arguments. I'm listening right now.

I cannot find anything on oral arguments and definitely nothing new, so can you give me a link?

Here's the link

If that doesn't work, just go into evidence and then go onto the lower right hand menu and you will see it blinking there.

I think it's the state appeals so it's at least a year old but no I don't know how old it is.

It's old. Shucks, I was hoping it was the federal appeal.

I am aussie so have not seen much of this case other than what is on cable.Does Darlie have a date for execution? How long has she been on death row? We do not have the death penalty over here we need it tho. We would rather pay to have cold blooded murders in the lap of luxury til they decide to do us a favour and die.:slap: I have read that most death row inmates have 10 years of appeals before they meet their maker? Thanks :innocent:

No, Darlie does not have an ED as yet. Her state appeals ended last year and now she moves on to appeals at the federal level. Given the problems with her trial transcript, her state appeals lasted longer than is usual. Only when all her appeals have been exhausted will an ED be set. She's been on DR since her conviction in early 1997.

Actually here's a link to the appeal process in Texas that might help you.

I live in a country with no DP either but I am not in favour of it. To each his own eh?

Welcome to the board.

What I think is execution would be blessing for Darlie. so many years gone by. So many family lives destructed have been. Even if Darlie innocent I don see no good for future for nobody. I think lives lost for all family and Darlie and no hope. very sad.

Yes, Darlie is guilty. I also think the Aisenbergs had something to do with Sabrina's disappearance. (Sorry--subject change.)

I agree about the aisenbergs, Darlie, i still wonder, deep down it reminds me of diane downs murdering her kids but its so hard to fathom a mom doing this..

 

[scandi]

The vote is closed, but I would have voted guilty in killing her children. From my study, which is having watched a special about her on CTV, she thought the children were interrupting her sex life and that is was she really cared about most in life. Remaining beautiful and as sexy as she could be.

I bet Darlie doesn't agree with you. LOL!

Yes, it is but look at all the mom's who have. Susan Smith, Diane Downs, Debra Milke, Dr Debora Green, Julie Rea Harper....not to mention the ones who were out and out nuts like Andrea Yates and the woman who stoned her kids to death while back. There was a young woman in Tennessee who parked her car in the hot sun deliberately and locked her children inside to suffocate. Moms do not automatically rise to the responsibilities of motherhood just because they give birth.

Hello! What's your opinion on Darlie's guilt/innocence?
The death penalty over here was abolished in 1965...and "life in prison" can, pretty much, mean anything from 10 to 50 years.

 

[SnootyVixen]

I bet Darlie doesn't agree with you. LOL!

she want killers of sons caught. but she don care what happen to her I don think. Why would she?

Hi, britgirl. Where is Leisure in the UK? I know I spelled it wrong but I can't see it on this page. LOL! So bear with me. Okay?

 

[Goody]

Because her life isn't over. If Darlie didn't care what happened to her, she would tell the truth about what happened that night. Even if you believe she is innocent, you have to admit that she lied about the events that night. She ought to fess up. It is the right thing to do, but she won't because she is still holding onto to the hope that she can beat this thing.

I have a question for you. If Darlie is as innocent as you think she is, why haven't the family been out there raising money to hire private investigators to find this killer? To me that is a no brainer. That is the very first step, right after hiring a good defense team. You hire qualified people to find the real killer. If you can't, you go out investigating yourself. No one, not her parents or siblings or cousins or uncles or even Darin has ever even tried. Why is that?

G'day,
My opinion is that she did murder her 2 sons. I also feel she was not alone in the covering up of her crime and that her husband knows alot more than he is saying. Yes we all show our grief in different ways but as a mum of 4 I could not see myself being able to put one foot in front of the other let alone have a grave side party it seems so insane to me. We have not had the death penalty here in many many years I am all for it coming back. In the case in Australia of Anita Cobby I do not see the need to pay to keep these scum bags alive I would much rather see my taxes go into education and to cancer research and things of that kind than pay to keep murders alive. This is just my opinion it would be a dull boring world if we all had the same opinions and beliefs.
I love reading all the different thoughts and opinions on here. I also find myself seeing things from a whole new prospective at times.

Take Care

Here's a link to the Anita Cobby case. Brutal, brutal crime. There is a book on it, too, though it seems to be about serial killers. I am not quite sure how that fits in.

 

[ElleaBoo]

I also put a link on the bottom of my post for the Anita Cobby murder. Yes it was VERY brutal. I refered back to it to show just one reason why we should have the death penalty. I am not sure as to how it would fit into the serial killers catagory either. :waitasec:
