I saw this story somewhere else recently. I am so sorry that this happened to your family. So tragic. I will watch the movie sometime soon. I wish your family some peace.

Thank You Arianna. It's definitely worth watching, though not if You want to be in a happy mood the next day. It does take a bit out of You emotionally. my uncle also wrote a book about the case, though from a more technical examination of the laws involved and the flaws in the system that allowed it to happen.

Wow. I'm sorry. I saw the movie and it totally crushed me. ;[

Thank You Princess. i don't know if i could watch the film more than once, i dont know if i'm strong enough emotionally for that. i couldn't even handle speaking on camera to the filmmaker when he was first putting it together. i wish i'd been able to handle it, even if my scene wasn't used.

i'm thrilled to know that You've seen it however, and i've been hearing from others, friends and simple acquaintances from all over that they've seen it. It is good to know it's being seen more widely, getting the story out there.
