I really think there is more to the Ray's story. I wish Price would have asked how Davidson got the drugs, where did the money come from. Since this was a 2nd time he had drugs in the house the Ray's would have known better then give him money, so did he steal from them? Plus remember Dr. Brown said that she did not need to test Davidson she could tell he was on drugs from the way he was acting, so another words she did have test in the house and this was an on going thing. I do however think they tried and cared very much, I don't however believe they have kept in touch with Davidson.

At WBIR, there's the latest article about today's events, here:
http://www.wbir.com/news/local/story.aspx?storyid=103206&catid=2


There are also more videos there, e.g.,

http://www.wbir.com/video/default.a...isha+Davidson+testifies,+PART+ONE/38549214001

From there, you can see more footage from the trial and reports about the trial. Hitting "related videos", or searching on "Davidson" brings most of them up. "Cobbins" works well for his trial.

They even have the infamous testimony of Meesha, the sister, at Cobbins' trial, here :

LOL Same here! I did the basics, but after a week, the kitchen floor is a mess. And laundry needs finished. But I keep going in there, looking at them, then... ...meh... I come back in here.

I'm calling it "Research" to lessen the guilt. :whistle:

Well, I just took a shower and checked on status again. Now, I've got to go to the bank to make a deposit, I'm sure the jury will come in with a decision while I'm gone. Things usually happen while I'm gone. Someone please make a still of everyone during the sentence reading. I'll hurry.
