This guy didn't need killing, Maybe not in Minesooooota, but in Texas a scumbag like that needs killing.
When Texas was settled, there were a lot of bad people and not much law. There are still a lot of bad people but way to much intrusive busybody liberal whiney assed law.

The little girls hated Daddy too. They're happy he's gone forever. Forever. Daddy's little girls will never hug Daddy again, and Mommy is gone until they are teenagers, and they are now virtual orphans. Could it have turned out any better?
Get real.
To: Servant of the Nine
You're full of crap.
These little girls now have no Mom, no Dad and they are orphaned for 10-12 years.
You are a bullshit artist or a sociopath.
To: ArneFufkin
You are a bullshit artist or a sociopath. No, I'm from Texas and you are from Minisooooota.
Things turned out badly because she had a "B" list Atty and a jury that was probably new residents and democrats. In my life I have never seen a Texas jury give real prison time for a crime like this

About why the parents of David Harris chose to be witnesses for the Defense -- It simply proves to me that THEY believed that Clara didn't intend to kill David. That she loved him, and his death was an accident.
No, it simply proves that, once his parents gain the custody of the twins (that, according to the article, they are seeking now), they will control one-half of a 10 million dollar estate for the next fourteen years. And I have just as much evidence for my "proof" as you have for yours...

Well, I like Texans, but you suck.
There were no winners here. This is dismal. There's nothing to celebrate or support.
Two innocent girls are now F'd for life because Daddy's girlfriend had bigger boobs than Mommy, so she had to kill Daddy. That's going to be a hard sell in a couple of years. "Why didn't you divorce him Mom?" "Never thought of that, you're a smart little girl! I'll see you in two weeks. Guard!" There's no defense or rationale here.
I don't give a rats ass about your sewer view, but I'm pissed at this woman that she screwed those two innocent children over to satisfy her selfish lust.
To: ArneFufkin
Well, I like Texans, but you suck. I like you fine as long as you don't come to Texas and vote.

That is what I said. She sufferd a travesty of justice. I have never heard of someone getting jail time for a killing like this. She deserved 2 years suspended. Maybe 2 years in jail for having the daughter in the car.

Back and to the left. Back and to the left. Back and to the left.
Hey, you're just the gumshoe to crack this case wide open.
To: Servant of the Nine
OK Rain Man.
To: PhiKapMom
20 years in jail! They did find a special circumstance of passion! Meaning she ran over her husband, multiple times, with passion? Or she showed passion in only running him over 4-5 times when she really wanted to run him over 10-20 times?
To: Servant of the Nine
Hey, you're in Texas she's in Texas ... I hear she's recently single.
To: Mad_Tom_Rackham
She put the thing into front wheel drive, that was cold.
To: PhiKapMom
Heck, I thought that HE was the culprit, not the victim. After all, he cheated on her with a lesbian--full weird. Without the Mercedes, she would have had no justice for the crime done against her! Now maybe if she had just run over the mistress instead of the husband.....

Did it ever occur to you that she is a psychopath killer?
I clocked her qualifying laps, she's starting in the 6th row at Daytona next Sunday. She's running next to Lorena Bobbitt and Claudine Longet.
To: Servant of the Nine
What got Clara in trouble was that she killed her husband in such a dramatic manner, had his daughter with her in the car and was videotaped.
Texas courts are known to cut deals in "S&W divorces". This one was too public and gross.
People outside of Texas are sure going to be surprised by that SCA down in Houston. I don't think she's serving the full ten years.
As a native Texan, I'm rather embarrassed by this sordid mess. The entire story had every earmark of a trailer park gothic set in surburbia. Trashy, trashy people.
To: Mad_Tom_Rackham
Good point! That thought crossed my mind as well!

So are you feeling sorry for Clara because she is a widow? LOL Thats like feeling sorry for the Menendez brothers because they were orphans. It the Menendez boy had been stand up guys, and killed their father and left their mother alone, and said they did it and why they did it (because their father was an abusive violent monster) I would have voted to let them go.

Maybe if the husband didn't choose to do the whap-a-dang with the new hottie at the hotel where he married Clara it wouldn't have been so--yucky.
Probably Clara would have taken off the front wheel drive. Ugh, now that's a stone cold fact I didn't want to read!
I'm torn over which look I like better for the mistress: the blond Bettie Page wig or the Louise Brooks raven locks.
