Maybe this is the start of a trend. Our government will deny it, of course.
The Mexicans are getting paid 50$/hr, which Rino McCain says Americans won’t work for.
Ok, I guess I’ll have to be the first. The wife is involved. Let me get this straight. They shoot HIM IN THE HEAD. He’s dead. But her? No, they just put a gun to her head. They don’t molest her, rape her (have you seen her? - I have!) and then just leave her even though she could obviously identify them. They leave, but instead of staying with the body of her husband she leaves. Smell? Oh yeah, it smells. Let me see. The other version is “we were on a cruise and she got drunk and fell over-board.” Smell-o-vision!
Something don’t smell right about this story.
Take comfort in the knowledge that The Rookie has said we’ll be able to absorb the next terrorist attack.
Insurance scam? I’ve read the couple lived in Mexico for 2-1/2 years, returning to the U.S. just a few months ago. Mexico is a great place for a “dead” man to hide out-especially if he knows the country.
i saw her on fox this morning. The newslady asks her something like “why do you think they shot your husband?” and the wife says “i didn’t have anything do do with it! “ it was so weird and out of context and very defensive even though no one implied she had anything to do with it. weird.
I don’t know if she’s in involved but on ABC this morning she said they ignored warnings and went to the Mexican side of the lake because he wanted to take photos of an old mission church. That in no way excuses what happened to the husband, but knowing what goes on there I think it was a foolish risk.
She needs a Perry Mason, pronto.
Yea....I just saw her on Gretta......this story does not add up.....and her demeanor did not fit that of a grieving widow....more like a “grieving” beneficiary.......
yeah... that was my first thought....this seems a little contrived... think about it, they go into an area that they know is infested with drug cartels, that has recently had incidents with people out fishing and boating, causing warnings to be issued..... and then they wander over to the mexican side...pretty good way to try and cover up a crime.....
In many ways this does not pass the smell test..could he have been involved in drug trafficking?Or could they have been thought to have seen something?
What is this place?? Demo-rat underground??
bttt
ditto, she did it.
Arm some WWII vintage Catalina flying boats and go after the pirates.
Lots of bits and pieces to this story from various sources. So it's hard to get a full grasped of what actually happened.
Apparently this couple lived in Reyonsa, Mexico for some 2 1/2 years before moving back to the US a couple of months ago. They may have had a false sense of security because of having been in Mexico for a while.
"Early Show" co-anchor Maggie Rodriguez asked Tiffany, "You were returning from a day of sightseeing with David when this happened. I know that you had lived in Mexico for three years before moving back to the U.S. a couple of months ago. Did you know that there had been a spate of robberies on the lake? And did you have any concerns about going out that day?"Tiffany replied, "We had heard about the pirates, and them robbing fishermen and whoever were over there. But we hadn't heard anything for several months. So, no, we had no concerns whatsoever of going over there, living in Reynosa, I mean, you live there for two and a half years, and we're not people who, you know, blend in. We stand out. We don't blend in. And we lived there, and we lived a life of no fear. That we were not going to stop living our life and adventures. David loves the history. That's what he loves. And that's why we were there that day."

The sheriff decided she's not guilty because she "was unable to stop sobbing".Maybe it's a hoax (for insurance money, for eg), maybe not, but the notion that a lot of tears automatically disproves guilt is based on how grief stricken people act in Hollywood movies, not reality. Plenty of people respond to grief by going into a nearly catatonic state. They are in a state of near-shock, and so they don't cry at all . So tears or lack thereof don't prove anything one way or another, and I do agree with you that this story seems a little "off".
