Isn't that the strangest behavior? If a child of mine had gone missing, I don't think buying a new car would be anywhere on the radar! I don't understand how he was ruled out as a suspect so early in the investigation.

The theory is, that the VD's had swingin' pals in Law Enforcement...and, since they didn't want their lifestyle to make mainstream press, they tried to keep things as quiet as possible by deflecting all attention onto DW. Diane Halfman was glued to the VD's hip from the get-go. She's also a retired police officer.

Remember, the VD's are on tape as saying they have "no regrets" about the events of that night. That clip is burned into my mind...I cannot fathom how a parent can have "no regrets" after such a horrible tragedy. Shoot, my daughter stubs her toe, and I blame myself for leaving the ottoman out where she could walk into it.

Last night, Samantha Runnion's lovely Mother was on Larry King. The contrast between this woman and Brenda (and Damon) was glaring.

"Mantha's" Mom was the picture of someone who is suffering so much pain, that to let it all out, would kill her. But it was there..on her face, in her speech, in her demeanor..and her SOUL shined thru all of it. She was the total picture of grief. Watching this beautiful lady, I couldn't help but think how lucky Samantha was to have had HER for her Mother, albeit so briefly.

"Mantha's" mother does not want to look at the man who did this to her daughter, and will do what the LE wants her to do, concerning attendance at the trial. She doesn't blame her Mother, she only wants the word out that we should pay more attention to little children when they say they have been sexually molested. I could go on and on.

TODAY is Samantha's birthday,and her Mother had the Party already planned. She is having the little girls friends over for one LAST birthday party..and I could just cry.

"Happy Birthday Mantha"...may you always live in our hearts.

If a child of mine had gone missing I don't think I would be buying a new car either. I also would not be steam cleaning my carpets and painting my walls within a week.
