Wayne Millard: Dellen Millard Charged With Murder In The First Degree #1

  • #1,061
Why would you burn wood chips? Wouldn't you use them for landscaping? If you had all the money in the world and could buy the exact, purpose-built thing you needed, why buy something sized and designed to burn animals? Why, with a barn full of barrels on site, would you not just use a burn barrel?

Are we able to make decisions for what someone chooses to use to dispose of unwanted wood? Chop up the wood with a chipper and burn it. Maybe there were some diseased trees/shrubs on the property that needed burning. Some infestations need to be burnt to be eradicated too. Not too much of a stretch to see what may have been the case IMO

And, again, it's also portable. You don't have to keep reconstructing barrel incinerators and leaving them behind all over the property. JMO. Clever idea, actually. MOO.

I just want to say I feel very uncomfortable discussing the private lives of a deceased man and his ex-wife. Respectfully, we have no idea what their personal issues may have been at the time of their divorce and frankly, I don't think it's any of our business, either. MOO. IMHO.

Now you see a good copy editor would catch that obvious mistake and figure out I meant 2001 and not 1981.

I am going to disagree with you and say that it's not common for a five year old to live exclusively with his father unless there are big problems with the mother.

I didn't say it was "common". I said lots do.

Not Canadian, but I wouldn't be surprised to know the same is happening in Canada.

The 2000 census found:

In 2.2 million households, fathers raise their children without a mother. That's about one household in 45.

The number of single-father households rose 62 percent in 10 years.

The portion of households headed by fathers with children living there doubled in a decade, to 2 percent.

With respect, why should someone have to decipher your posts?

50/50 custody does not imply that anything was wrong with his mother.

Totally agree. The living arrangements anyone chooses for themselves and their children is a personal decision based on their own circumstances and does not mean that anything is wrong with either parent.

In Canada in 2011, 16.3% of households were headed by a single parent. 80% of those were headed by a woman --> 3.3% of households headed by a single father

That's after a 14% increase from 2001 and 2006 and 16.2% increase from 2006 to 2011, so yes a lot has changed in the last 15 years since the courts started giving more fathers custody.

Anyone who thinks a propane fueled crematorium is required to burn wood ....

.... should not be involved in discussions about propane fueled crematoriums

Or in this case it looks like it was a mutual arrangement and that the courts maybe had nothing to do with it. IMO

Respectfully, anyone who thinks they are the only one with the correct opinion, should maybe respect the fact that by participating in a public forum many differing opinions are the norm. An incinerator that is marketed for many purposes should not IMO be referred to as a crematorium while implying that it is strictly for the burning of bodies JMO IMHO

Or maybe the purpose was as initially stated by the company and reported in MSM articles ... to dispose of dead farm animals.

I think the "many purposes" it was marketed for were dead chickens, dead turkeys, dead pigs...

Go ahead, fill a crematorium meant for 65% moisture animal carcasses with wood chips, hook up the propane and hit start...would love to see what happens.

I expect the purchase to dispose of carcasses from dead wildlife, trees and rotted plantlife JMO

I expect they were given a manual to explain how to use it don't you think?

Just because DM's a city boy, doesn't mean he's going to show up and incinerate all of nature? Trees are wood for a future fireplace, rotted plantlife is soil, you drain a swamp by digging a hole which becomes a pond, not by incinerating it 250, 500 lbs at a time to dry it out. Dead wildlife is food for the crows, because they're God's creatures too.

WM was a fan of both flora and fauna...do you think his boy would move out to the country and incinerate everything within eyesight?

No I don't but until we have a few facts on the matter its all up for speculation isn't it? My suggestions are as possible as anyone elses. I think he may have wanted to burn diseased trees or shrubs, dead animals, I have said this already. Burning is the best way to rid plantlife of certain diseases.

That may be your opinion, but it's not what the purchaser told the distributor:

from:
http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news...National+(The+Globe+and+Mail+-+National+News)

How do you know what was said? Maybe the distributor mentioned only part of the conversation or maybe the reporter latched onto the dead animal part of the conversation and left out the rest. We don't know and I think it has been mentioned before that you can't always rely on the press or media for accuracy. JMO

Who said propane fueled crematoriums are required to burn wood? That would be stupid. IMO.

My goodness. Companies and governments and private individuals all over the nation incinerate all manner of items. What exactly do you think would happen?
