Maybe now the media will stop “suspecting” the wife in the crime. They were really bad this week about implying she may have had something to do with it.
Shep Smith was particularly bad, and misleading at times, with his teasers and reports. It was obvious he thought she had a hand in the crime, even though there was at least one eye witness who backed her story.
I was one of those skeptics;(.
But there may have been a side benefit to the media questions; keeping attention focused and pressure on LE to pursue this case.
Shep Smith teased that the “authorities” suspected the wife...so I tuned in only to find out it was the “Mexican” authorities.
Jerk.
Somebody needs to bitch slap Shep Smith. That guy is so bad. How did he ever get that anchor job?

Sadly, it wasn’t just the media, it was several Mexico supporting/ US hating freepers as well, attacking anyone with race baiting who dared to think Mexico might be responsible, with comments like this:
” She’s lying and as a result creating an international incident. Her story has many holes, one of which you touch on. In one interview (Greta), she says the alleged pirates did confront her when she went back for her husband. Moments prior to that she said she never had contact w them.
She’s definitely lying. Either about killing him or faking his death or the reason her hubby and her were trolling Mexican waters and he got killed. But she’s lying. 100% sure. “
“I’ve said why I’m convinced she’s lying. I KNOW it. That you haven’t seen or heard enough from her to lead you to that obvious conclusion is not a me problem its a you problem. Her story has more holes than a golf resort. BTW you buying her fantastic tale is highly speculative. Too many folks here acting on emotion and personal bias. In time you will know she is lying too you just don’t want to yet. So call it speculation but I’m telling you she is lying.”
“Your political views are slanting your judgment. Or you just relate to pretty young gals with sob stories. Doesn’t matter she is lying. Guaranteed. Wait and see and if you feel up to it hit me back with a mea culpa when the time comes. And it will.
A word to the wise - this liar is not the foundation to build a political stance on. Don’t make this criminal the poster child for the legitimate problems we have w Mexico. It’s gonna backfire big time. Trust me there are US authorities giving her enough rope to hang herself and she is doing it all over TV.”

Yes, I agree - the media coverage trying to implicate the wife was shameful. I wonder if all of these “reporters” will now publicly apologize....(don’t hold your breath).
Shep must get his blow from Mexico/s

Shep Smith does that kind of thing frequently. Fox calls that a NEWS program? I worked for a television news department where we would have a brief segment at the end of the newscast in which the anchor gave an editorial opinion. It was clearly marked with a super at the bottom of the screen that stayed there throughout so there was no question that it was not news but opinion.
Shep Smith also thinks that a particular video of a tranquilized bear bouncing off a trampoline is hilarious. The producers indulge his weirdness and include it in the program whenever there's a report about an incident involving bears. I finally quit trying to watch FNC's seven o'clock THING and switch over to Jeopardy! instead.
