It was RUMOR that the VD's got $100,000 insurance form Danielle's death. We have never found PROOF this is true. We assume he had some kinda insurance policy, but the real amount is , so far, speculation/rumor.
The VD's did buy a BMW in, I believe APRIL. We would assume they got rid of their other vehicle (Damon's) which was a blue toyota van, (as far as we know). The reason I say that is that the OTHER vehicle was a BIG FORD EXPEDITION, very late model. Doubtful they turned that puppy in for trade.
The last RUMOR is that BRENDA just bought an $850,000 house up in CARMEL. WE , at this point, still have NO PROOF. This was first heard on the RICK ROBERTS show , and one other daytime TV show (don't remember the name), but we STILL HAVE NO PROOF.
We don't know if they sold their house in Sabre Springs (reportedly Damon is still living there).
That is what we really know, right now.
Probably have some more when people get home.
Since anybody not strictly following the "Van Damnation" party line gets called an apologist, I'll take a shot at the car thing. I am not an apologist, but have already been called one. It doesn't hurt, so I'm coming back for more.
A sizable fraction of people now lease their vehicles. A Fact. Leases expire. A fact, also.
How about if Damon's van lease expired in April? In order to continue to have a vehicle, he leased another vehicle; a BMW. Or maybe he bought a late model used BMW, on time payments like most purchasers do.
What is so sinister about that scenario? Which model of BMW? Is there some kind of class envy issue, whereby his type of vehicle renders him suspect?
I don't have answers to these points, but neither do the regulars on this thread, who keep repeating and repeating RUMORS, until they take on a FACT-like quality.
So I guess it is fair play to provide plausible explanations; at least as plausible as the aggregate of same, to explain the forensic evidence presented against DAW.
