I kept wondering what kind of material the suit was made out of because I've never seen wrinkles that bad before on a suit!

But I did remember that the woman being shot in the leg was fake. I just didn't remember it was the older son until the very end when it was revealed. I do remember being grossed out that the husband had remarried (how on earth did he find a GF much less someone to marry his cheating *ss?) and was living in the house where his wife had been freaking MURDERED. His new wife must be one of those women who send love letters to serial killers in prison. I got 3/4 of the way through this episode last night, so I didn't know that about the husband and new wife. Wow. While I don't think I'd have a problem living in a murder home, I'm pretty confident I couldn't do it if it'd been MY spouse murdered or my spouse's spouse. The older son being involved came out of left field for me. I can't imagine my parent crying in my ear about their cheating troubles. That's kind of emotionally incestuous.

Ohmo June 17, 2017 Share June 17, 2017 I agree with the verdict of manslaughter for Lars Itzo. He admitted to doing it, but I didn't think the prosecution proved premeditation. Debbie's money all went to her father. Lars also did not come across to me as the brightest guy. I think he did it and tried to cover for it, but I don't know if I'd say he planned it. I will say, however, that I did find one element of what Lars said to be plausible. I live in an older house. At night, when the house settles and gets cooler, it makes noise. There have been times that I would have sworn someone was in the house even though I knew for certain that wasn't true. Of course, that doesn't explain why Lars didn't call out to be certain it wasn't Debbie. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/137482-all-episodes-discussion/page/62/#findComment-3382569

UsernameFatigue June 18, 2017 Share June 18, 2017 (edited) With regards to the Lars Itzo case, I kept waiting for Dateline to cover what happened between when Lars apparently heard an intruder, and shot his wife. Does he sleep with a loaded shotgun beside him? If so, why? Did he find and load the shotgun in the dark? How could he see to do that? As per usual with Dateline, they kept going over the same info rather than giving a more complete picture. In any case I have no doubt that he meant to kill her. All that fake crying, and no tears. The same when his sister cried - no tears there either. Apparently it is a genetic condition. I am glad he got 15 years, though it isn't enough. Edited to add - I agree with the above poster about calling out to your spouse. If I thought I heard an intruder I would turn to my hubby and whisper "Did you hear that?" If he was asleep I would wake him up if I thought there was someone in the house. Makes no sense that Lars would hear multiple voices as he claimed and not wake his wife up to warn her.

Lars said after he shot the shotgun, he was going back to get his 9mm handgun when he figured out it was his wife he shot. Well, duh, I can recognize someone I know at three feet even if it is dark. Lars also was naked when police arrived (!!!!!!!!) with no blood or anything on him from "doing CPR" as instructed by the 911 operator, and no gun residue on his hands. WTH? Why not? Or did he change his story from a burglar shot Deborah to he "Oscar Pistorius" shot Deborah? And they were married only two years. How did they meet?

I agree to a point. If the intruder remains in the house or comes at you or someone else (armed or not) once a person says "I'm armed and will shoot you." then I think the homeowner has the right to shoot them. Not kill them, but shoot them. If an intruder is unarmed and realizes that he or she has been found out and leaves, then yes don't shoot. However, a person can be a threat without being armed. Being unarmed does not make someone harmless.

He, of course, is playing the I'm-a-reformed-guy-who-loves-God card. He had his Bible with him when Keith interviewed him in prison.

If I thought a burglar were in my house, first thing I would do is call 911. Don't most people have a phone in their bedroom if not their cell on the bed stand? Only then, if I were a big badass like Lars, would I take my gun and yell out that I had that gun, and use a flashlight to jacklight the intruder. I keep a flashlight in my bedroom in case power goes off. Lars said he saw a flashlight being used by the "burglar." The only problem with me grabbing my gun to go after an intruder, I have a shotgun and a rifle, but both are by my back door, nowhere close to my bedroom. What was Lars so afraid of that he kept a sawed-off in his bedroom? And if it wasn't under his pillow, he'd have to get up to get the gun, during which time you'd think he'd be telling his wife to stay put. And the wife would be saying, "What?" You know, like any of us would IF we were in bed with Lars. The newspaper said there was a dog that was "growling," reinforcing Lars' thought that there was a burglar. Burglars I know (well, the ones I see on crime tv!) don't break into houses that have dogs. Which is why I'm not worried about break ins at my place.

They are, so it was only natural that Conrad would say she wouldn't do that at first, and then think about it longer and say, well maybe she would. Almost anyone can do something like that when drunk and upset, particularly when a loaded gun is handy. She may have intended to stand there with the gun to her head, to scare him and then pulled the trigger by accident. The police were awful They kept saying that Conrad's words at the time were "all over the place." What do you expect from a drunk, distraught husband who didn't know what had happened? I thought his off the cuff theory of a gun shot through the window helped prove his innocence because he would have opened the window if he was setting something up. The police were just mad because he "threatened" them when they were moving too slowly to help his wife. They seemed like such morons, they had probably been just standing there looking at her. I'm getting sick of family members who make up their mind who did it and no amount of, or lack of, evidence will change their minds. They seem to think the more they dig their heels in the more they're honoring their loved one. One sister fainted? Please. Did she think locking up Conrad for the rest of his life would bring her sister back? 15 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/137482-all-episodes-discussion/page/62/#findComment-3400812
walnutqueen June 24, 2017 Share June 24, 2017 I STILL think he did it. Why yes, I DO believe my lying eyes. ;-) 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/137482-all-episodes-discussion/page/62/#findComment-3401051
saber5055 June 24, 2017 Share June 24, 2017 I can't get past the GSR on Heidy's right hand and the gun having been placed against her right temple for the kill shot. I can see Judy's theory that Heidy might have been going to scare Conrad and, being drunk, accidentally shot herself before she could say, "Hey, look at what you are making me do." Oops. People also refuse to accept that loved ones sometimes DO want to kill themselves. The people who are the most outgoing and cheerful can be the ones who are the most deeply depressed with constant suicidal thoughts. Not everyone talks about wanting to kill themselves before they do it. And trust me, I speak from experience on that topic. As for those measurements being so off, someone wasn't paying attention during the trial when 1.2 feet turned into 12 feet. WTH, people? Just goes to show that some police are just people interested in that weekly paycheck. So many aren't very good at it, just like that doof who works in your office basically sucks, too. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/137482-all-episodes-discussion/page/62/#findComment-3401182
saber5055 June 24, 2017 Share June 24, 2017 Side note: Interesting that Conrad knows how to pick a lock. Where does one learn that skill? I guess I need to google it, then practice. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/137482-all-episodes-discussion/page/62/#findComment-3401243

Lizzing June 24, 2017 Share June 24, 2017 There's no way that the measurements didn't influence the outcome of the first trial. But my question is why didn't the first lawyer and/or the defendant notice the discrepancy? Even if it wasn't until the trial, someone saying it was a 12 foot walk on the stand should have caused Conrad to elbow his lawyer and say, "WTF? There's no way that is right." 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/137482-all-episodes-discussion/page/62/#findComment-3401372
JudyObscure June 24, 2017 Share June 24, 2017 The interior locks in many houses just need a long nail to turn them. The house I grew up in only needed one of the dinner knives stuck in to pop the lock. If my brother and I were (play) fighting I had to push all my furniture against the door. I was frantically doing that one time when I turned around and saw his face at my window. He had to scale two stories of brick wall with his fingers and toes to do that. He lived to make me scream. I can't help thinking that one reason Conrad was yelling at the police to do something, was that they were transfixed by a young, pretty naked woman. The one cop just couldn't help remarking that women rarely took all their clothes off to commit suicide. Goobers. Of course Walnutqueen could be right, we know how often it's Hubby. I just don't think we can know for sure this time. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/137482-all-episodes-discussion/page/62/#findComment-3401540

The kind of lock you'd find on a bathroom door doesn't really need picking, just a widow's key or a nail. And yes, the cop commenting on her being naked gave me the creeps. Skeevy to the max. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/137482-all-episodes-discussion/page/62/#findComment-3401778
saber5055 June 24, 2017 Share June 24, 2017 If I remember correctly, it was repeated several times that the dead woman was naked. And where are the statistics that show the ratio of naked women vs. clothed women suicides. Thanks for the info on how to "pop a lock." Ha ha. Now I sound like a B Boy/Breaker.Didn't Conrad say he heard the "pop," and when he turned around, Heidy was "standing there?" 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/137482-all-episodes-discussion/page/62/#findComment-3402011
sinycalone June 24, 2017 Share June 24, 2017 I wasn't paying full attention, but wasn't the weapon a revolver not a pistol? In any case, Heidy shooting herself by accident seems unlikely...she would need to make the decision to take off the safety. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/137482-all-episodes-discussion/page/62/#findComment-3402159
