I knew someone like that...middle aged, going on 18.

The situation was reversed and no deaths involved just a lot of pain spread to a lot of people.

What would prevent her from condemning a woman who is sleeping with her husband? I don't understand this. Something isn't quite right.

Bingo. And more to the point -- from condemning that a$$h0le of a husband who would tell his wife how great it was to hold his secretary in bed all night.

Don't know about you guys, but I would not expect my wife to take that kind of insult sitting down.

If I'm on the jury, Clara walks.

Hell, I believe the guy got off easy.... He's dead..

If I had behaved in the same manner...
My wife would shoot or cut me... not to kill, but to seriously and painfully wound..

Nurse me back to health...

Then shoot or stab me again, and once again - nurse me back to health..

Over and over again....

She would make a point to punish me for MANY YEARS - before finally putting me out of my misery..

One tough, but saintly lady --- the kind you DO NOT mess with.... Sweet, but meaner than a junk yard dog when crossed..

Semper Fi

David Harris called his wife "fat"

Well, call in the dogs and p!$$ on the fire, this trial is over. If there is even one Oprah watching soccer mom on the jury, Clara will walk.

After he told her she was fat her mind snapped.

Think of Mrs. Ramsey.  The pathology of a "former" beauty queen's mind would be an interesting study.  I, too, have little sympathy for the husband.  I suppose, having traded up for the current Mrs. Harris, he supposed he could do so again.  However, to someone whose entire existence is defined by being the personification of beauty, shattering that illusion shatters the whole person.  This means all bets are off, any schizophrenic or psychotic behavior is possible.

"...Clara will walk...."

(should read: "waddle"...)

Thanks. You're right. Nobody in their right mind is 'all right' with that kind of thing.

I think that Scott may be hiding something he desperately doesn't want others to know about.

[MeekOneGOP]

Did he ever stop to think what could happen? Usually, these PI's drive over to the tryst spots themselves and snap some photos from behind a potted palm. Bet it'll be a blue moon before this agency ever does that again.

Good observation. That would have prevented a murder. At least on that day...

She did condemn him; he's dead, remember?

What would prevent her from condemning a woman who is sleeping with her husband?

........and while it doesn't sit well in 'Oprahville', I had the strange thought that the reason she can't bring herself to condemn the mistress is that maybe she engaged in such things herself.
