When this first started, I thought it was the case in NY where the Female Prison Guard helped 2 convicts escape because she was in love with one of them. She was married and, had a family she abandoned too.

It was interesting to see how this unfolded. I'm not surprised that her husband and sons cut her off. That's a major betrayal; it goes beyond a simple affair (which is bad enough). 

I'm glad she at least got to make peace/say goodbye to her youngest son before he died. 

I followed the NY case closely and watched the Showtime series. She was actually not a guard but rather she ran the tailoring shop where the inmates worked manufacturing uniforms. So in both cases the women were around the inmates all day with opportunities for fraternization and flirting, that is, manipulation by the inmates. Maybe they really shouldn’t allow women in these jobs.

Well in the "Escape to Dannemora" case,  the prison seamstress manages to smuggle in a file and shovel so that the prisoner she fell in love with could, and did,  dig a tunnel out from his cell, and no part of that raised suspicions.  It makes me wonder about all the things that go unnoticed in prisons.  It also makes me shudder.

As someone who struggles to lose a pound, I couldn't help but be struck by this man having the discipline to lose 25 pounds, but not the discipline to stay in school, work a steady job or wait out his prison sentence.  Now he has ten extra years to do and ruined the dog lady's life.

He probably was motivated with the be free and it's not like he has a refrigerator to raid late at night to ruin his diet.

I missed how long his original sentence was but it didn't seem like they had much of a plan except to escape and just hole up and have sex til they were found.

He sounds like a man who likes being a white knight, like when he wrote her in prison saying he wished he could rescue her and/or that's just his line he writes all the women.

I watch LOVE AFTER LOCK UP, those cons sure know how to turn on the charm.

[LEILANI2]

Besides Tobi and the seamstress breaking out prisoners, there was the one who was the wardens wife.  They ran off and lived together for 15 years or so til they were caught. She claimed she was under duress the whole time but she had plenty of opportunities to leave and never did.  She even stayed with him after he had a heart attack.

Her husband took her back and I was just recently trying to find out if they're still together.

I digress but the women breaking out prisoners fascinates me.

LeiLani2, yes.  You’re thinking of Bobbi Parker and Randolph Dial.

The last I read on the subject, Bobbi and her husband (the former warden) are still together.  He is adamant that she did not want to go with Dial and was forced.

Bobbi’s two daughters apparently have a different take on the subject.  According to an episode of Dateline about Parker and Dial, they were now grown and did not want a relationship with their mother.

That of course could have all changed but if they think she was a part of Dial’s plan, it would mean that to them, Bobbi chose to leave with an escaped convict and not be with them for the years when they depend on a mother figure most.

Let me just say that if a person is lacking in self-esteem and/or attention, those prisoners have the routine down cold.  They also have the uncanny ability to ferret out those most in need - and will certainly take advantage of the situation.  Couple that with someone looking to escape and it’s a recipe for disaster.

Yes that's who I was thinking of!  I agree with the daughters, she had many opportunties in the decade plus she was gone to contact them and/or escape.  She also had a history of inappropriate relations with other inmates too. 

I'll have to find the episode, I never saw the part where the daughters didn't want contact, I only saw the one where they were glad she was back.

If a friend is sick and needs help, I’ve learned that you get the friend to the hospital, and haunt the ER admissions desk until the friend gets attention,  Me telling everyone that medicine is ineffective because a doctor didn’t call up my friend for a health inquiry leaves so much out of the story.

Your friend/boyfriend was murdered; you have information.  You can walk into a police station and demand to speak to a detective.  If you see something, say something - that’s been drummed into us since 9/11.

I see the Lifetime movie version of the Doomsday Cult, Lori Vallow story is on tonight. I wish they'd got someone really ugly to play Lori, but they didn't.  That probably would hurt her more than any death penalty.

Yes, Lifetime is a cable channel.   They're running a lot of crime docudramas.  

[Ellee]

As much as I want to see these two pay for hurting these children I couldn’t watch the show.  The thought in some way Vallow/Daybell might be compensated in any way or that Vallow would continue on her journey of being in the limelight was too much for me.

Did anyone watch Friday's episode "Story of Somebody"? I was so disturbed by all those police officers standing around talking to each other while the victim was reaching out to them. No one was even rendering the basic first aid of putting pressure on the wound! 

I can't blame the mom for initially thinking it was the police that shot him. And since it turned out it wasn't, why make her wait 500 excruciating days while she went through the process of forcing them to let her see the video? Hope she solves the case.

I saw that one, yeah. So infuriating how the police kept trying to claim her son was "being aggressive" and that's why he had a handcuff on when he was wheeled into the hospital...only for the video to show that no, he wasn't anything of the sort. 

And then these officers complain about the treatment they get from the public, and talk about the failing of the community. Well, gee, it's hard for people to respect you and your profession when you keep lying about simple facts like that, and do nothing to even try follow up on a lot of these leads. Yes, it's true that most families in general do tend to get frustrated with investigations, even ones that are very active, feeling they go too slow, but as we've seen many times on this show, there's some investigators that just don't even bother to try, for a whole host of reasons. So yeah, in those cases, sometimes it does have to be up to the victim's loved ones to keep things moving. 

I too hope she finally gets answers about what happened to her son. I liked her recording her interview with the police, too-it's sad that she has to resort to such measures in the first place, and speaks to just how little trust there is out there, but it's a smart move on her part, and clearly it worked in terms of proving the discrepancies between what the police told her and what actually happened.

No one has been arrested in the murder case.  And unless someone confesses and gets a plea deal, the future defense lawyers have a Dateline episode to use to challenge the police investigation, unless a judge deems it inadmissible.

Finally ... murder charges!  
 

Has any family members said anything yet?  Was glad Daybell was charged with Tammie’s death also.

House of Horrors. I found this episode sort of confusing. The evidence seemed so weak. Plus, I never understood why Jason would kill his wife and stepson, or why the stepson would kill his mother then himself. The motives didn't seem to be there.

I thought the evidence was pretty common in these types of murders. Couple has money problems. Check. Wife wants to divorce controlling husband. Check. Husband takes out life insurance policy on wife before she turns up dead. Check. I would assume he wanted the step son out the way because he did not want to raise him after he killed his wife.  Making him look like the murderer was a bonus I guess. 

One thing I found interesting is that in the Dateline show, they said that the gun was tested and only the dead son's fingerprints were found on it. I thought that was odd, because both the father and the adopted brother also used the guns, so what are the chances that only the dead son's fingerprints would be found on the gun? Unless of course the gun was wiped clean and then placed in the dead son's hands. I did read on another site though that the gun was tested and no fingerprints were found on the gun. So of course if that was true the dead son could not have been the murderer. 

Also as far as the rag in Jason's truck goes, the blood would not have stayed bright red had it been from a cut that happened two months before. The defense attorney was really reaching there. 

Jackson and Remington were pretty forgiving of their paternal grandmother, when she took the $100,000 life insurance money and didn't give any of it to them. Also don't understand why she didn't sell the $200,000 house rather than lose it for unpaid taxes. In any case Jason was a POS for not having the children on the policy. I guess he thought that his mother should get the money in case he needed it for his defense should he be charged with murder?

As they often do with these cases, they sometimes leave out evidence to help make their twists and turns more surprising.

I would imagine the autopsies helped establish the time of death for both of them.

+1 to all.  She had to know that she also could die.  And that is my personal pet peeve.  It is indeed the choice of the person who was wronged to decide whether or not to forgive.  It has become more of the norm for people to be looked down upon if they DON'T forgive.  Toby served her prison time.  That means she paid her debt to society.  That does not mean her ex -husband and child must forgive her.

On to Jason in TX: His behavior in prison is damning him even more.  If you're willing to intimidate a witness's child, I TOTALLY buy that you'd kill your wife and try and frame your stepson for it.  He's completely guilty, and his mother?  She's scary.

I found the sibling split in this one interesting. The older one who had already moved out by the time the murder happened would have known his parents and their issues better than the younger ones, but he’s the one who is staying on Jason’s side. 
 

I felt terrible for that poor 16 year old girl. Kids who have to live with knowing one parent killed the other break my heart.

Pretty sure Mommie Dearest DID find those tapes and burned them. I wonder if she was in on it, being that she had a lot to gain as well. 

When the older son said his dad was not the type to ever do something like that, Andrea should have asked him if his dad was the type to threaten an EMT and her child with violence if she didn't change her testimony?

I thought that was interesting too but maybe he was out of the house by the time the issues started in their marriage.  He also knew what it was like to be orphaned, I gather?  The two of them gave them stability.  Depending how messed up his early life was, it's possible he didn't see dysfunction as dysfunction.

On Saturday’s case about the foster-daughter murder, did anyone else have trouble believing the perpetrator?  She was savvy enough to ask for a lawyer at the start, and her six month silence gave her time to draft a story to fit the circumstances.  And the detective was convinced she was telling the truth because the husband bought cars and trailers?  I didn’t believe her at all.

Andrea said that Jason's mom didn't want to give another interview.  I vaguely remember this case from an earlier time.   Maybe I'm wrong, but I got the sense that Andrea interviewed the older son several years ago and Remington and her brother much closer to present-day.  Meaning when Andrea interviewed the older son, Jason hadn't threatened the EMT yet.

I had seen this before, so while I had it on in the background, I didn’t pay that much attention this time, but I remember feeling that the foster daughter was manipulative as hell.  I think she created a fantasy in her mind about her, Kevin and the youngest daughter being a family.  While I think it is possible that they may have had an inappropriate relationship (sexual and/or emotional), I can’t buy the guy deciding stabbing the wife to death was the best plan of action.  I think that was all on her.

[Cozytea]

I wanted to see some of the hundreds of texts. I wonder why we never saw them?  We saw the one from the wife telling the husband to cut the cord.  Even if deleted is it possible for police to retrieve them? I had a friend of a friend  who was going through a divorce and called her cell phone carrier about retrieving texts on her husband's phone, they told her they couldn't hand them over but she could go through the courts to get them.  Idk if she ever did but the husband didn't hide the affair very well so it was out there.

I thought the foster  daughter was lying but then the husband wanting to see her in jail  idk . Maybe something was going on but that was a ridiculous plan if it was a plan.

House of Horrors: First of all, what a title. 

I am 99.9999% sure Jason is guilty, but there's this tiny, nagging question I have in the back of my mind about the possibility that it was the son who did it, and that Jason just became so desperate to clear his name he resorted to all kinds of criminal antics after being accused and convicted, twice. 

The sticking point is that the EMT testified the mother's body was warm to the touch and the son's body was cold. That would seem to eliminate the possibility of the son being the shooter. So, why did the so-called expert conclude it was a murder suicide and even testify to that opinion in the second trial? 

Also, assuming Jason is guilty as charged, why the disparity in time between the two murders? He murdered the son, then went somewhere and came back home and then murdered the wife and called 911? How does that even make sense? Did he tie her up until he got back home? How could he have murdered the son without his wife knowing? 

Quote

Plus, I never understood why Jason would kill his wife and stepson, or why the stepson would kill his mother then himself. The motives didn't seem to be there. 

I thought both motives were equally plausible.  A hormonal teenage son throwing a temper tantrum over not getting a phone is just as possible as a greedy husband killing his wife for the insurance money. Plus the adopted son described his  brother as odd.

Pam Hupp charged in Betsy Faria's murder, prosecutor says criminal charges against investigators, attorneys could follow

"LINCOLN COUNTY, Mo. (KMOV.com) – Not only were murder charges filed against Pamela Hupp in connection to Betsy Faria's 2011 death Monday, Lincoln County Prosecutor Michael Wood announced his office uncovered prosecutorial and police misconduct in the initial investigation that could result in criminal charges.

Hupp was charged with first-degree murder and armed criminal action Monday, and Wood said his office would seek the death penalty in the case." 

"He said at the news conference three separate sources told him that witnesses for the prosecution in Russell Faria's trial were asked to lie on the stand and that the sheriff at the time attempted to issue an order to have all evidence in the case destroyed."

I hear what you're saying, and teenagers have been known to shoot their parents.  However, there was mention of a $900,000 that Jason got in some sort of settlement.  They blew threw that in some amount of time.   Coincidentally, Nichole had a life insurance policy on her worth S100,000.  Money is the age-old motive, and it's a heck of a lot easier for me to get to an adult male killing his wife to collect 100K than it is a kid shooting his mother AND killing himself over a cell phone.  Admittedly, the temperature stuff I can't fully explain, but Nichole is dead either by Taylor's hand or by Jason's.  Given Jason's mother's behavior, I'd say the apple didn't fall far from the tree.

Another thing...during Jason's questioning, he talked about Taylor not wanting to go to school.  He specifically mentioned it.  The other two kids went to school.  Jason took them.  I suspect that was the plan.  The kids would be at school.  All of them, but when Taylor chose not to go, Jason killed him and then framed him.

Did they mention how long her husband was gone? He dropped the kids at school,  and returned straight home.  I wouldn't think he'd be gone long.  And according to him they were both alive when he left.

When I caught a rerun of the first version I found the sister in law's blog and found out more. The older son was a foster kid.  He actually was a bully and mean to the younger one who was also murdered. It's sick that it was Nicole who took him in and he ends up siding with her murderer.

He was sent away and back to his bio brother because as they got older he became meaner so he sides with the abuser and also a pyschopath himself.

Twisted Loyalty: Wow, Katherine is a true psychopath. I figured she had killed her mom when I heard that the mom had been stabbed 28 times. I’ve watched enough “murder shows” to know that kind of killing means it was personal. I feel sorry for her brother. She played him, used him, and abandoned him.

[iMonrey]

Katherine (Catherine?) was the proverbial bad seed. Her father doused her and her brother with gasoline and threatened to light them on fire. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree. There was obviously something not right with him so it's no wonder at least one of the children turned out so damaged.

Yes, her father doused himself and Catherine.  I think he never got over the loss of the first son.  I think Catherine did indeed kill her mother.  Her childhood was horrific, and for that I have empathy.  However, I think Catherine has been damaged enough by that childhood to be dangerous.  She needs to be in jail.  I'd support Andrew's release, however, but I also support Robert's family's feelings about Andrew.

The son was in a garage that had been converted to a bedroom. No insulation and holes in the wall.  
the Mom was in an upstairs bedroom. Heat rises. Her room would be much warmer than her son.  I think that’s why the expert ignored the differences in body temperature.  

I might have bought a murder suicide rather than two murder except for Jason and his Moms behavior. Innocent people do not threaten peoples’ children.

Pet peeve:  The show said  Katherine was placed in a prison southwest of Chicago. The prison shown was Logan women’s prison located in Lincoln IL …. A good 2 hours southwest of Chicago.  Note to everyone - the Chicago area has two thirds of the Illinois population… but it covers only a small part of the states’ geographical area.

There's a concept of Restorative Justice in some States whereby the victim's family gets to communicate on different levels with the convict who committed the crime against their loved one. 

In this case, Andrew seems authentically remorseful and has taken responsibility for committing the crime. 

With the exception of committing this horrendous crime due to the coercive and sinister influence of his evil sister, he lived an exemplary life and has continued that pattern throughout his years of incarceration.  

The Restorative Justice program might be a success in his case because of Andrew's unique attributes and the fact that the family might come to benefit from having a relationship with him to try and gain some relief from the anguish and grief they have experienced from the death of their loved one. 

I know of several cases where this program has created a special relationship between the  victim's family and the perpetrator of the crime that has benefitted both.

Yes, but I got the distinct sense that Robert's family doesn't want that, at least not now.  I'd support Andrew's release for the reasons you've stated, but I think he's got to be realistic about Robert's family. They may never want to interact with Andrew.

Well, that is certainly their prerogative and it is to be respected. 

They had facilitators from the court in the cases I'm familiar with who work with both parties but are trained to be very sensitive to victims families thoughts and attitudes toward the perpetrator.  He/she would never "push" for a proscribed result or try to interfere with the wishes of the victim's family. 

The successful use of the Program is when all parties feel a sense of fulfillment being in contact with each other.

I just watched A Killing in Cottonwood for the first time. Wow-is this the first time Keith has snapped at a prosecutor? He really thought she was wrong. You could tell it rattled her. 

I'm stunned the father got convicted on such flimsy evidence. "They had a knife in the kitchen that he could have used although there's no proof he touched it."

"We decided the jumbled words on the 911 call are 'I killed my wife' even though it doesn't sound anything like that." 

"He was extra good Facebook friends with a woman in Idaho who he never actually met up with, who had decided to ask for forgiveness and make her marriage work." 

How awful for the family. 😕
