Officers responded to a "disturbance call" late that night involving the 28-year-old man and quickly determined Hacking was suffering a medical problem,

I bet that medical problem was an attempt at suicide...I heard a report that he was on sucide watch...

There was also some discussion with Mark's brother about hiring an attorney for Mark...I only caught the mention of it.

"It has finally come to an end, and he's relieved."

He is relieved?

We had some close friends once. Wonderful, sweet gentle people, with five little kids. The husband took over a business that was really too much for him. He made mistakes, and the business began to fail. He did everything he knew how to do, worked harder and harder, but wasn't able to pull it out. He started to lay awake nights. After about three weeks of that, in the middle of the night, he started beating on his little, tiny sleeping wife. He had a complete breakdown. She escaped with bruises, but I wonder what would have happened if there had been a weapon close by.

After months of hospitalization, he was released, but he never was the same. It was a tragedy. And something that he was completely not responsible for.

I'm not saying the same thing happened here. Because this guy made a conscious decision to lie and lie and lie for two years. If he's crazy, he drove himself there.

But it sounds like he isn't crazy. He had his wits about him enough to go buy that mattress, then make up the story about his wife jogging, etc.

He wouldn't have to get rid of the mattress if he just smothered her. There had to have been some bloody transaction that happened unfortunately.

I'm not so sure that whole episode at the hotel wasn't staged. I mean, afterall, he was competent enough to buy a new mattress(in his sleep), moments before calling the police to report his wife missing. Remember, the original story was that she was supposed to wake him up after she got back from jogging and he was going to take her to work. He slept in that morning and woke up late, only to call her at work and find out that she never made it there?!? Now we hear he showed up at the Mattress store at 9:45 to buy a new mattress. Hmmm...

Scary thing is, he works in a psych ward, so he knows how to act to make others think you've lost it. And maybe he did lose it - but it was AFTER his poor wife's fate was decided.

I don't know if it's just blood they are looking for. Bodily fluids are released when a person dies. Could be that?

Here comes the press Conference.

I assume the judge would be the one to determine competancy? My own legal education has not yet started.

If they haven't found the old mattress, your comment about his job and having access to any number of places to put it makes sense.

He and Lori were managing the complex they were living in. He was employed as a psychiatric technition. I saw an opening for one in Provo for 8.49 per hour. Didn't anyone wonder why this 'college grad' was working for about 9 bucks an hour?

That story was put out right away. Now we here that he jogged the trail twice before 10 am looking for her. That means that he was up by at least 7:30.

One thing that has always puzzled me is why no one in his family ever questioned his story about being accepted at UNC medical school. Being admitted as an out-of-state resident to a state medical school is extremely uncommon since perhaps 10% of slots in state med schools are set aside for out of state residents. Surely his brother the doctor would know that.

Right, I just heard that last night. I heard that he called some friends at 10am and said he had jogged it twice, looking for her. I wasn't sure if it's actually been confirmed that he did indeed do that. Either way, the original story he gave is completely wrong - for many reasons. Right down to the calling the cops at 10:49 and then going to the park to find her car still parked there. Surely, he would have noticed that on his jog earlier when he was looking for her?

I questioned the whole thing about fooling her parents. I think I would have known. My wife says otherwise. I think I would have been curious as to why my son-in-law was working at a 9 buck an hour with a college degree.

When I was accepted at med school my parents wanted to read my acceptance letter. Not because they doubted my story but because they were proud. I don't understand the parents behavior at all.

He would have told you the job was like a pre-internship and would have counted for credits in medical school...all bullsh*t, of course.

A man who never even lays on a mattress...and buys it...cannot be trusted. Something is way out of reality...you have to lay on it at least once. Why even bother shopping?

I think he's trying to play the insanity card also. This is ANOTHER of the same. Soon as they got to Carolina the jig would have been up for him. What was he going to tell his wife - I'm a big fat liar??
