Par for the course...
Just wow.
I know some people who preserve their deceased child/grandchild’s room just like it was. Until they themselves die.
Guess not this family.
Give away I can see but not sell!
Even if they gave away they would still need the prolicic We did this!
Outragous the only thing worse is the ones who Bought!
I guess you can see where the Book sales are goin!
I guess libs would call this a “choice.”
There are any death-cult sickos that buy these items, because they are from a "notorious case"
Honestly this makes my very sad.
I can't imagine seeing my son's toys if something were to happen to him. I'd toss them. Or donate.
Sad.
Bon Fires can have a peaceful return!
It’s stuff, not a person. How is this different than any estate sale?
Now we see the rotten tree that laid the road apple.
Some people get the kids they deserve.
I think it would be normal to give the dead child’s clothes and toys away anonymously to a charity. I guess these people are not normal.
I’m guessing they are intending to,downsize their lifestyle by selling the house and moving into a condo.
Definitely far from normal.
These toys were meant to be her comfort, something to hold onto when she got scared or upset, or just wanted a peaceful nap or to help her go to bed.
A blanket, a stuffed Tigger, some small trinket that may not mean much to an adult, but meant a lot to her.
I've been to estate sales of elderly people. They contain the remains of a fully lived life.
I was never "sad" when I went to these sales.
But for the sale of a (likely murdered) child, I simply couldn't buy anything.
It would be terrible.
When I tach computer forensics, the Casey Anthony case is one of my examples of what NOT to do.
Forensic examiners looked at the browser history for IE and found nothing. Too bad they didn’t look at the browser history for Firefox, which was full of incriminating evidence.
I always tell me student, you don’t want to be the idiot who didn’t check all of the browsers’ history files.
Hoarders........
tach = teach
Seems to be no cure for fumble fingers
——Tacky couple;——
You are being way too kind....
Nope. Not hoarders. Just scarred into an inability to deal any more with the sudden death of their child.
The main one I’m thinking of was a guy my age, killed in a horrible DUI car crash (he was on his way home from swing shift and the drunk hit him). He was an only child and had taken that job to pay for his junior college. His mother never ever got over that. Their house was ‘normal’ in every way. Except do not go into the deceased child’s bedroom. She threw out garbage just like any normal person. Stuff that was her sons wasn’t garbage. His room is preserved as a pristine 1985 time capsule.
