I imagine he’s emotional because he was caught! Feels like a fool, didn’t want his family to know he bailed out on them, that he’s only really cares about himself. What’s the saying ….
I would be emotional if I destroyed my life and everyone I love. But I have empathy. He’s emotional because he got caught and may suffer consequences. Moo
I think he was okay letting his children grieve and suffer his loss, but was emotional when he realized his kids knew he lied and betrayed them.
What's the right thing to do? Admit guilt? He already did that. The "kids" are apparently older, not Santa Claus age. They realize what he did. JMO but I would never trust him again. Maybe he'll come home if the Uzbekistan woman rejects him.
I think he needs to come home and let the Feds continue the investigation into what I suspect is a bigger crime than faking your own death and insurance fraud. He might not be the target of the Federal investigation, I don't know.
I think (or try not to think) of those kids who are now in school. Small community where all is known. Must be awful for them.
The reason then is he needs to come home to face consequences. This is a public interest rather than a reconciliation.
I agree and have stated upthread that I think the presser was coax him home for some reason we don't know about yet. I don't think it was a surface-level, "Golly gee, your kids miss you" reason.
Somewhere in Madison, someone probably has a new ebike for nothing! Left unattended for days by the bus station - I'm sure someone is enjoying it now.
It seems a lot of the community and his friends were shocked by his actions, not just his family.
And who would accept him for these decisions? Can't see business as usual.
Gee, had I known...
I read this article and it sounds like her husband was abusive and she was hiding from him because she was afraid of him.Flora Stevens, this is who this reminds me of. The woman who disappeared in Catskills mountains and was found 40 years later in a NH in Massachusetts. Basically, she punished her husband as he always was suspected of having to do something with her disappearance and he did not! He never divorced, never remarried. Hers was a case of psychogenic fugue when one wants to leave his life behind.
When one fakes own drowning you wonder what exactly, in essence, one wants to stage.
That we don’t know. The way she disappeared, and there was a prior history, I remember he was always poi until his death and she was found much later. But fugues are common; there were several cases in NY alone.
