Just spoke with someone from Clear Lake this morning. She said his co-workers said of him that he kept to himself and didn't believe women should work outside the home. There's also a rumor that he has a girlfriend. Finally, I think there's something hidden here about this guy. I'm hoping once the meds start to take effect Andrea will tell the entire story. I think they're hiding something that she felt was so shameful that she didn't want it public and she felt the only way to "save" the kids was to murder them. I still believe she should go to prison but I think there's more to the story. Just a hunch.

I've heard that rumor about him having a girlfriend too. But wouldn't that have come out in the trial?

There's also a rumor that he has a girlfriend.

Maybe before the murders he was reaching the conclusion that his wife was a hopeless case and looking for a way out. Too bad he couldn't have moved a lot quicker and the kids could have been being raised by a saner stepmother.

What I don't see anyone mentioning here lately - to contribute to Russell's guilt - is that the religious sect he subscribed to held that women are sinful sisters of Eve and daughters to Satan. THAT is why no one likes Russell; whether you know all the facts or not, you can still sense he has a serious problem.

He is illustrative of a good example of Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder. In his mind his truth is the only truth, he is right and will always be right. They are the hardest cases to cure if it is at all possible.
