Truer words were never spoken.
Yeah, we all know that Scott has to struggle every time he has to tear himself away from that sad telephone in his and Laci's house--the telephone that has yet to ring with news that his wife has been found!
You know, for some reason, I just got thinking about Laci's last month before her disappearance. We know she apparently didn't confide her troubles to family members or even friends. It must have been terribly lonely and depressing--I imagine her alone, "talking" to that little boy she was carrying, saying, "don't you worry, things are terrible, but I'm going to take care of YOU no matter what!"
That, to me, is the most depressing thought I've had yet.
That is indeed very sad. I wonder, though, if Mr. Convincing Liar didn't soothe away all of her worries about where he was all the time, etc. I mean, every friend and family member (except her Dad) has said that they were such a GREAT couple, so in love, etc. I think he was playing his psychotic game pretty well there, and she may have had some worries, but knew NOTHING of his true nature until the end.
I am reminded of Condit, whose flight attendant girlfriend called him after she saw HIS photo on TV in the missing Chandra case, and who, according to the flight attendant, completely convinced her and reassured her that he was not involved, and "made everything OK again" with his soothing words. These guys are VERY convincing when they want to be. They think they can do/get everything with their charm.
