You never heard of the whole ordeal, or you never heard about the letters and other items found in DiMaggio's house? The later is a very recent development.
Any of it.
I guess we'll probably never know for sure but I wouldn't be surprised to find out she was in on the runaway part. Making it look an abduction might have been part of that. And yeah I'd have to know a lot more to point the finger at her on the torture and killing but then we have seen it before.
I'm not sure. It just seemed odd that she was taking smiling selfies after the ordeal. The fact that she was not killed along with her mother and brother also seemed odd. I bet she had a relationship with him and they talked about running away together. I'd like to think it all spiraled out-of-control on her, but, damn, this story went from tragic to bizarre in a hurry.
Odd. Maybe this story isn't getting the coverage I thought. I typically get the majority of my news from the frontpage of CNN, for better or worse, and this story has been plastered all over it.
Especially considering she didn't know until after her rescue. But to be fair everyone mourns differently so maybe that's it.
Well hopefully I am just being a suspicious cynic and she was in no way involved. That would be my preferred ending.
I'm feeling cynical as well, but, agreed. Hope there's nothing else to this sad story.
The mention of a note from her being found in DeMaggio's home has me suspicious. The fact that they found used condoms and a DNA testing kit, while not damning, is just creepy.
I just thought the same thing while reading up on this. "He reportedly fired a shot at FBI officers. He was hit with 5 shots and killed."
When the report came out today about the "letters" it certainly added to the feeling she wasn't entirely the victim as she describes..
Had a thread yesterday where a 13yo got life with for a murder. She says something hateful in those letters she's looking at best at something on the order of 40-100
wtf is wrong with you
saying a 16yr old girl has a great rack right after she's been kidnapped, possibly raped, and her mother and little brother were tortured and murdered seems in bad taste to me. But hey what do I know
That's the Patty Heart debate. The balance between duress and the heinousness of the crime committed. What's the breaking point?
was patty hearst this young?
That's just another factor to consider. People keep trying to tell me that teenagers today are much more sophisticated than they were when I was growing up. So I don't know if that would make a difference.
This. I'd wondered about her involvement, and the letters have increased my suspicions. I would deeply hope she wasn't in on the killings. But if not, what happened? Did he drive her up the road and ask her to wait while he went back and burned down his house? Bizarre.
But I'm hoping, like you, the ending isn't that she was involved.
Again, those are just factors to consider. The overall question is the same.
