"I do not feel our show is to blame for what happened to Melinda Duckett," Grace said on the air Monday.

News reporters and editors and hosts are always talking about "making a difference in people's lives. But when things like this, the Jenny Jones thing, and the NYT revealing military secrets to our enemies, suddenly they're of no significance at all, and they can't figure out where people got the idea that their little newspapers and TV shows could possibly contribute to the deaths of emotionally-stressed people or soldiers on the front lines.

I doubt that Grace was the cause of the suicide, but she does consistently impress me as a loathsome person.

She's a talk show host and no longer a prosecutor so to her and CNN ratings mean more than a woman's life and a child being found.

Grace also noted that "Melinda committed suicide before that interview ever aired."

It's possible that Melinda deduced the fact that the interview would air.

The boy's father, Joshua Duckett, said he did not blame Grace for Melinda's suicide. He was estranged from his wife, who had custody of Trenton.

"Nobody made her do the show," he said. "Nobody made her do anything."


Atleast this is a responsible statement however it is a very sad situation.

Uh, yeah, lady, but it was AFTER your grilling.

Mike Wallace-style grilling of folsk not used to the spotlight is fun for ratings-starved newsworms, but some people aren't used to that kind of thing. That never occured to you, lady?

Grace, who has helped publicize the cases of Natalee Holloway, JonBenet Ramsey and other youthful crime victims

She really has a sterling record of helping to recover kids alive and of helping bring the culprits to justice.

Nancy,rest assured that the dead woman's estate will arrange for this question to be put to a civil court jury.

Nancy Grace, lawyer, this has nothing to do with the possibility you drove this woman over the edge.

Even though Nancy Grace is stating this stupid comment to make herself feel better, I don't think she should be held accountable.

I'm sure that Miss Grace is very satisfied that she did an effective interview. It had spectacular results. But why would someone agree to be interviewed by such a one anyway?
I am sure this will be a proud item on Miss. Grace's resume.

I saw that particular show and though I like a lot about Nancy Grace, I do think she was especially venomous to that young girl. She should remember the "assumption of innocence" during her inquisitions.

Could the family be contemplating filing a lawsuit against Grace and Chicken Noodle News? Could this be a trial balloon to see if the allegations pass the "laugh test?" Could the publicity be "shark bait" in order to attract a nice lawyer willing to take the case on a contingency?

Enquiring minds would like to know.

What would you expect the loathesome b*tch to say? Just skipping over her while channel-surfing leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Nancy grace is a bitter, hateful person.

Nasty Graceless has appointed herself judge and jury on every case I have bothered to watch her discuss.

Suicide is typically NOT someone else's fault. For whatever reasons, her emotional state drove her to it.
