The smell of burning flesh is going to be noticed to all the houses north south east and west, wind or no wind! Not to mention Tammy, or Garth had to have noticed a smell! Not being gross, but there are many cases where human parts were being burned outside and the neighbors gave witness to the smell, they thought it was a bar b que. Were neighbors interviewed about any smell that day ?

The woman worked her butt off and was also physically active. Good gravy, we aren’t on the verge of death, WE ARE TIRED.

[@texasgina]

Amen JenniLynn. I was single parenting my youngest kids who are twins and were in high school at the time, and i was going through menopause working two jobs! I was exhausted I would literally come home eat dinner clean up and go to bed. I pray to God the jury sees this. She worked all day she went to clogging she went to Zumba she had had a bad marriage she was depressed most likely because of the menopause and her bad marriage! I know when I was going through menopause it made me feel like I was going crazy on certain days and my hormones were all over the place. I would have panic attacks at work when the hot flashes first started. I would feel this burning feeling from my forehead all the way down my body they were scary.

So, as a 52 year old woman going through menopause, I find it interesting that ALL of Tammy’s symptoms are similar to my symptoms in menopause🤔🤨 they are NOT symptoms that proceed what happened to her.. it’s such a shame they’re trying to make her sound sick and unhealthy when it sounds like she was very much a middle aged mom who was working her butt off for her family.

[@TheMAmeph]

Everything you say is so true and plausible. Also she had (had) a busy life (financial provider, mother and caretaker, prob. household and yardwork, load of responsibilties/mental load, etc.), was exhausted and maybe even suffered from burnout at that point. Also also she had depression, which can make you sort of lethargic at times. Also also also a difficult relationship with her husband, probably she felt the relationship falling apart for some time without a clear path out of that dilemma. Apart from that there are completely healthy people who are "early birds" and that's just their natural bio-rythm at which they thrive, I'm one of them. Tammy seems to have been a normal human being with talents and faults, like everyone of us. Shame on her own family to not accept her as one.

[@IlluminatingInk]

I thought I pretty much knew the main players in this case. But Emma’s testimony today sealed the deal for me in my questions if Emma participated in the murders of the kids. There has always been huge raised brows over Emma’s conduct that I couldn’t quite make sense of. First, there’s the video shown of her dad in the cop car the day they found the kids in the backyard. Anyone in that situation who was clueless would be out of their mind, screaming, “dad, WTH is going on? They found bodies on the property! Is it the missing kids? Why did they arrest you?” But not Emma. Not one question from Emma. The only thing you can infer from this is that she already knew the answers to those questions. Then when she testified she did a search online the day before Tylee was murdered about wind direction and weather, and never made any such searches after that day, tells you she was a part of the planning of the Satanic death cult who practiced child sacrifice. Then there was the head-scratching, brow-raising behaviors of choosing to move into Chad’s home -where you knew murdered children were buried in you backyard, when you have 3 children of your own. Nothing says “home sweet home” like knowing your backyard was the scene of a gruesome child dismemberment and attempt to incinerate the body. Sorry, no one who is normal, who lives in reality, would choose to live in such a place. We also learned in trial that Emma contacted Lori frequently in jail as well, and speaks to her dad daily in jail. She obviously doesn’t find anything wrong about child murder and the abuse of corpse, lying, adultery and theft. But she says she does share in her father’s teaching in the concept of a rating system to determine a person’s dark and light status. And we know that Chad taught that once a person is rated dark, the only thing to do is murder them. I think based on what has been revealed in trial, that any school who employs Emma to be near children should be sued for child endangerment.

[@rebak502]

After watching the kids testify, I would not want my kids in their classes. Something isn't right there.

[@kitandsons173]

I have been a mortician for over thirty years and a few things Garth said seem scripted. We have heard twice now, that there was a loud thump, alerting them that Tammy was dead. Once by Chad and now by Garth, that Tammy's, lifeless body miraculously moved and, fell off the bed. First dead bodies don't randomly exert energy and fall off beds. LUDICROUS! They claim she fell halfway of bed and made a big thump. However, both Chad and Garth stated that her body was cold and stiff. This thump story is laughable. If rigor set in, it would be absolutely IMPOSSIBLE for her body to hit the floor with enough force to make a thump especially while she was still half on the bed. Her torso and neck would be stiff so if her legs and feet were still on the bed and half her body off the bed, her head would hardly touch the floor. If her ankles and feet were on the on the bed and her head was touching the floor there would be damage to her face or forehead because of the angle of impact. Still it would not make a house shaking thump. It takes several hours for a body, especially under blankets to cool down. It is not like she was fading away in hospice. Hours earlier she was supposedly walking around, coughing, vomiting bloody foam, and wiping it up with towels...oh yeah, then she "choked'. Sad that no one thought this was 911 worthy phone call but a guy with a paintball gun was? Anyway, a warm, pliable dead body pushed completely off a bed, would make a loud thump, but they said she was stiff and so cold and her feet were on the bed. Sorry, they can't have it both ways. Also, why was she so cold? Was she killed outside? We absolutely need to see a reenactment of this laughable scenario.

These family members said that they knew Tammy best, and all the other testimony is folks who can be no more than strangers or acquaintances. Strangers had nicer things to say about Tammy than her own family members. These family members made Tammy out to be a recluse who did nothing but computer games/apps sitting on the coach eating a Quarter Pounder, lying and cheating her fitbit just to win because she was too lazy to do the work yet did all the managing of the family business, maintain the garden/pet cemetery, carrying a bunch of boxes all over school, and fitting in some zumba and clogging in every week. I mean, is this a realistic picture of the person they supposedly cared for and loved? I heard it straight from Emma's mouth during today's testimony -- Chad is the head of the Patriarchy. That's all I needed to know from her.

We were in the courtroom today, after listening this and chatting with my friend who was also there we came up with an idea…. All the talk of the cozy cone, how it’s soundproof, and the difficulty navigating between it and the house combined with the video of Emma and Chad and the mention of moving that mattress got us thinking…. Was Tammy killed in the cozy cone? Could the mattress be the murder weapon? Like maybe Chad or Alex or whoever pinned Tammy under the mattress in the soundproof area and asphyxiated her. Might be an indicator Emma knows more as well 🤔🤔🤔

[@Aries-Athena]

My takeaways from today's testimony was a mixture of "I guess I'm not surprised that Chad would raise children of the corn", and " So this is what it looks like when people get lobotomized". Other takeways: 1. If you're vomiting and sick, you typically don't want mcdonalds. 2. Sleep apnea varies mild, mod, and severe. People can have it for years until they get diagnosed. It's rare that it would kill you let alone without causing cardiac events too. 3. Emma denied watching the trial, yet Prior asked her if she remembered testimony from weeks back at the beginning of her testimony. 4. You can't have endless refills of antidepressants without seeing a dr. 5. People commonly get tired in their 40s+, and they don't die. 6. It's weird you'd go to the dr to get pain meds for your elbow, because you fell on ice, yet not go because you faint, have anemia, or have low blood pressure. 7. Emma was not credible at all. The possession story was bizarre. This whole family just seems more nutty the more we see of it. 8. Does Prior expect us all to believe the neighbors/friends, employees, law enforcement, medical professionals and everyone not on Chad's side is trying to frame him? That we are supposed to ignore his own texts and phone calls and listen to Emma? Lol

THEORY: Chad tells Tammy to go sleep in the Cozy as he is tired of not sleeping in his bed! (She won’t sleep with him because she knows he is having an affair!) She does that night and Alex comes in thru the CC door, smothers Tammy, they both move her to her bed and stage the scene waiting for Garth to come home.

I was struck how Garth, self-described introvert, quiet and mild-mannered, enjoyed putting on a costume and scaring people at a haunted house. Chilling, when you think of him as Chad's "mini-me," as Dr. John described him. Compare to mild-mannered, humble author Chad, who wouldn't kill anyone, vs. the patriarch, prophet, and translated being, who (allegedly) killed his wife, and may also have done terrible things to Tylee, and attacked her body violently with yard tools.

[@jennyjessop6432]

Chad didn’t like Tammy playing games - no games while he was around, but the children could play? He ruled the roost with an iron fist, and children learn who the dominant parent is and will emulate him. The children saw this behavior their entire life, so they continue this behavior now. The manner in which Emma so gladly “threw her mother under the bus” demonstrated the control he has over them. Everyone around Tammy saw her as a loving, caring, healthy, friendly. Only Chad created the story of poor fat, unhealthy, at death’s door Tammy.

[@blues7160]

Soooo much more indeed

[@MsRstump]

To Dr John: The wind direction was so that Chad could figure if the smell of burning flesh would reach a neighbor and make a nosey neighbor come and ask what he's doing. It's not about, can he start a fire or if he can bury Tylee's chopped up remains. He worried about the smell. People living nea a crematorium know exactly what that is. Since Chad had prior knowledge, he would be concerned about being discovered.

Why does she not ask any of that then or any time since in visits or in phone calls. If her mom died naturally, why would she refuse to speak to police or look at her mother’s autopsy??

And how does she feel when her own children play in the yard where two dead children's remains were found, do they build cozy fires in the fire pit where they chopped, hacked and burned a 16 year old girl? Or maybe she is okay with it because of her shared belief with her father. SURE, that's how you show love and respect for your mom.
