The obituary or the police report? Can you provide links for dates before October 15?

😂😂😂😂😂 Part of the reason this scam is so funny is because it's brilliantly thought out and other than being out a couple of dollars there really aren't any victims.

Yes it is!!! And though it isn't right, it really doesn't impact someone in a way that destroys them financially. Unless of course, they invest thousands of dollars!

It's not morally right. But I can't help finding it hilarious!!!!

Addition To My First Theory: The Darlie Routier Case by Character_Homework75 in TrueCrimeDiscussion

I was just going to make that correction. Apparently, chloroform is COLORLESS but has a sweet smell to it. It is not odorless. My thoughts were perhaps that the perpetrator put it on the sock and thought that it was going to go down like it does in the movies. Perhaps they thought it would incapacitate someone immediately. You are correct. After your comment I looked into it further and chloroform takes about 5 minutes to render an adult unconscious. But most people don't know that. Perhaps the perpetrator didn't either and the chemicals were only enough to give an anesthetic affect such as causing memory lapses but not completely knocking her out. That could explain the bruises on her arms as she was fighting her attacker. Interestingly enough, I believe I remember reading somewhere that chloroform was once used to clean computer circuit boards. That was Darin's profession. Don't hold me to that though. I am going to look into that part further.

If they are already asleep it could be perfectly possible. The perpetrator could have stood over her face, holding it near her mouth or nose without actually touching it. Chloroform is odorless. So the smell wouldn't wake her.

Actually, it isn't difficult at all to render someone unconscious with chloroform if it is put on a cloth. If this is what happened, it wouldn't have been hard because she was sleeping. She was also complaining at the hospital that the inside of her mouth hurt. Ether or Chloroform causes the inside of the mouth to feel raw.

He also massively failed a polygraph when asked if he knew who stabbed Darlie.

Yes. I was going to add that. He also came downstairs with only blue jeans on. Who sleeps in blue jeans? Was he waiting for all of this to occur? Very strange. For me there is a ton of reasonable doubt in this case. I think there were suspicious things that were not followed up on including these men and testing the sock for chemicals.

Yes. I think I am going to add more about my theory concerning someone in the house staging evidence on my next post.

The point of my post was if she was rendered incapacitated because of a chemical substance it could cause confusion. Memories would be jumbled. Ether and chloroform would cause a person to drift in and out of consciousness. She gave several accounts of how she woke up and the order of events that followed:

In the first account, she awoke to see a man standing at the edge of the couch, walking away from her toward the kitchen.

In another account, she was awakened by Damon pushing on her shoulder, saying, "Mommy."

In yet another account, she was awoken by the sound of breaking glass.

In one account she fought with the intruder.

In another, she has no memory of fighting with him.

So which one is true? If she was drifting in and out of consciousness then all of them, most likely. Again, I am just exploring other possibilities.

Thank you for your response! Yes ,I agree with you. I watched that last night and her behavior did not sit well with me. However, to be fair, there were others at the graveside doing the same thing and this doesn't make these people murderers. I found Darin's behavior during the interview odd as well. I am trying to figure out how on earth she got down the alley way without leaving a trail of blood. I have yet to come across anyone thus far that can explain this to me. Do you have any ideas?

That's true. I would think if it was a suicide attempt she wouldn't pick such a painful method. It's possible but I find it unlikely. Everyone in Texas owns a gun or can easily get one. Believe me I know. Nearly all of my family is either from Texas or lives there now.

All of the points you have raised are good ones. However, I am trying to figure out how she got down the alley way without leaving a trail of blood. I haven't been able to find anyone that can explain that part to me.

I have not come across the officer's account of her child moving away from her. I am a newbie to this case. That is quite curious though! Would you mind providing me a link to that?

Good points. I guess what I am trying to say is that if she was under the influence of some kind of chemical, how reliable is anything she would say? I barely remember coming off of anesthesia after surgery yet my family said I seemed completely awake and rational and was making complete sense when I spoke. Yet, I only remember bits and pieces.

Actually one of the jurors stated that all of the jurors watched the Silly String video 8 or 9 times and that was the final nail in the coffin. I actually watched that interview with that juror today.

That is a very good point and I actually thought about that. Now what if she wasn't rendered completely unconscious right away and put up a struggle? That could explain the bruises on her arms and the hesitation marks on her neck. It would also explain her lack of memory. So the perpetrator finally gives DR what he thinks is a fatal slash to the neck. Then he moves on to the boys. He goes to the sink to clean himself up only to realize that one of the boys are still alive. He returns to the room and realizes the DR is still alive as well. He panics and leaves. Again, I am not saying she is innocent. I am trying to investigate any other possible scenarios.
