Hello everyone, I’m new here and have been loosely following this case and was reminded of it when this appeared in my newsfeed. He was just recently sentenced to 15 years.

Conway pleads guilty to killing infant daughter in rape, murder, abuse case | ClarksvilleNow.com

I just now read this whole thread. I did not see that ^^ coming. Why would he have not gone to trial if so sure there was not evidence to support the charges? I don’t know what to think.

yeah, idk, it’s so strange. I wish we had more details. It’s just odd to me it was immediately investigated as a homicide and I have to wonder if there’s evidence we don’t know about. Clearly the family’s website is biased in his favor, I have to wonder what information they’re intentionally leaving out. Without his confession it really just appears to be an accident, but he agreed to a 15 year sentence

Someone just commented on the Facebook post about this, “The autopsy results provided on the website are from a paid coronor versus the state coronor. The Conway's did not like what the state coronor determined so they hired their own.”

Because of the autopsy report that we saw, I was thinking this was a false confession. But, now that he has pled guilty, I’m wondering how in the world he only got 15 years for rape and murder! IMO

I am dumbfounded.

I feel like he wouldn’t have pled guilty if maybe there weren’t more evidence that exists that would make his sentence worse if he went to trial? Just don’t understand this

So, are there two possibilities here?

A) Guilty, therefore pled guilty

B) Not guilty but some of the evidence or reports supporting that would not be allowed or a deal was made and agreeing to a 15 year sentence would guarantee less time than if he pled not guilty and lost?

I'm a bit confused but then my mind goes back to the family's website and how it said that the paternal grandmother nor any of that side of the family had been allowed to see the remaining twin.......that information has always stuck with me.

I can understand how Adeline's mother would need to cease all contact with Chris Conway and file for divorce in order to get back & retain custody of the remaining twin, even if she felt/knew her husband was not guilty. But, ceasing contact with grandparents and other family members and not allowing them to see the other twin.....that wouldn't be a requirement from CPS and also (IMO at least) would not be the actions of a wife & mother who felt her husband was innocent, those seem more like the actions of a wife & mother who feels her husband is guilty. There must be a reason Adeline's mom feels that way, yes?
