One of the dads buys a gun from a minor for $20 after her dad supposedly killed himself & your daughter is living in that house with her? Did this girl really do that good of a job cleaning after blowing part of her dad’s head off & dragging him out to the shed? Seems like their would have been a lot of blood &/or brain matter everywhere. Definitely a perplexing story. Sounds like a bunch of irresponsible adults allowing their kids to run the show.

Claudia killed Chris because he was leaving. She probably has borderline personality disorder. They start fights at odd hours, late into the night. Chris wanted to go to be. Claudia came home late after working at the restaurant and started an elaborate recipe. This, when she has a four-year old son. These are red flags for emotional disturbance. Especially fighting in front of her son. Claudia's explanation to the detective in the interview was entirely self serving. She lied to her mother about Chris beating her. Claudia would have been a dangerous cop, had she ever been hired. Their pre-screening psychological evaluations would likely have detected her disturbance and she would not have been hired.

Sadly, my biggest takeaway came with the story of Crystal Howell. It was said that her father left his wife after learning that he was not the biological father of their oldest daughter. That disturbed me in a lot of ways. While I don't know the entire story of their family, I do know what it's like to learn that the child you are raising is not blood related to you. I learned this when my oldest daughter was 13 years old. I suspected it before that but confirmed it when she was 13 and suffering from an illness that depended on family history. Guess what, Bubba? She is still your child just as the child I was raising is still my daughter. You still have to man up and be the parent your child depends on. That responsibility doesn't go away just because you don't share the same DNA. There is already enough kids that don't have an active Father in their lives, why add to that? I didn't embrace the news either when my wife confirmed my oldest daughter wasn't my biological child. But it didn't change my responsibility. The hardest part was telling our daughter that I wasn't her biological father. She understandably felt betrayed and lied to. It took her awhile to get over it. Now, at 40 years old she is closer to me than anyone else in my life.

When they show Claudia in the interrogation room by herself at just before ten minutes… she sits back and when you look at her face for just a moment you can see a flash of who she really is. She looks extremely annoyed and it’s a bit chilling. I guess what can you expect from someone who would traumatize any four year old by murdering someone in front of them. She’s claiming she’s waving it around thinking it’s unloaded so it surprised her,she would be more distraught knowing how close she came to killing her son. And look what she’s done to him. Her sentence is ridiculous. Don’t let her out ever.

Did I miss something? A 4yo couldn’t tell if it was intentional or accidental…premeditated or heat of the moment…reckless or negligent…etc…just not sure how his 4yo testimony was probative…she shot him and she said that…either way, she’s horrible.

@hallia97. After this crime he unfortunately had to witness his mother do that poor baby boy then witnessed a second murder of his grandmother how traumatising for him. Read the first comment the girl wrote on this explaining that she lived in the town they lived in and that poor likle previous baby boy witnessed his own Father kill his mother the baby boys grandmother so for him at some a young age to have witnessed two murders of his mammys boyfriend and his own family member his own grandmother . This little boy is going to need countless amounts of councilling when he is that bit older. As a child he will need trama Therapie the one that specialises in mainly children and some play therapy too that will help him trust again and show him he can feel secure and safe again not all family are bad, evil , people. Play therapy will teach him there is family blood family and others close to him who love him and want to shelter him from those type of bad environments and situations he should not of being in. Well I hope he is healing and copen so much better and a will grow to be a Happy man and no more people round him will hurt him or put him into scary, sad , Traumatic situations that he should not have to deal with. You never involve or talk to children about adult problems arguments or issues it's too much to burden them with and they don't have the full strength physically emotional to deal with adult situations and should not be put into that pressure cooker that only adults can deal with not their little brains and thoughts can't adjust too. Its not fair to them and there maturity level is not there yet to deal with them scenario's..😫😱💔😭😢🤢🙈🙉🙊 👊🏻 🫠🤔😕

I knowwwww... when I heard that I knew there was something seriously wrong with her. Those are not the type remarks you make in a situation when you are truly distraught. It showed what triggered her, showed she still felt anger or like she was wronged by him over that; it showed her narcissism because she was still caring about her trivial feelings over the cooking episode rather than caring more that her boyfriend was dead. It was as if she was whining to a friend about what her bf had done to her that day instead of actually giving the important details of how she shot her bf & killed him. She was crying over herself not over the bf being dead. It is scary that there are so many dangerous people out there that seem normal. One has to be very careful who you choose as a partner, and never ever stay in toxic relationships or engage people who display toxic behaviors. The signs & red flags are almost always visible from the start but sadly, many people choose to ignore them and they continue to pursue a relationship with those individuals.

They won't just use the footage of the child's 1st interview or breakthrough session with a therapist. Oh no, the person on trial has more rights than the child does & the defense has a right to question all witnesses. So for how ever many years a case takes, that child is forced to relive it. & heaven help them of they have a breakthrough & remember something their brain had been protecting them from. It's child abuse by the system on behalf of a criminal.
