This is so sad.......
they lost their son to a monster........
and they turned their pain into good works.......to help save other children.......and find criminals.......
Please pray for this couple.......may the Lord bless them.

There's another man involved, would be my guess.

John's a star, and Reve can't deal with that.

Notice how she's got everything divided already.

Reve Walsh said her 31-year marriage was irretrievably broken.

?

[Petronski]

Exactly how does one 'irretrievably break' a 31 year mileage?

[Nov3]

A voice of reason

[Guillermo]

Reve Walsh is seeking alimony, child support, exclusive use of the marital home, medical and other insurance, attorneys fees and costs and equitable distribution of their assets,

ie: "I want all the stuff, then half of what's left."

[RAT Patrol]

I pray she will have a change of heart. This is sad.

'irretrievably break' a 31 year mileage?

Maybe They need to change the Oil........

Walsh and the people at Americas Most Wanted are hero's in my book.

Personally, I don't see much dividing in there. All seems to go in one direction.

[Chemnitz]

A tabloid had John Walsh in compromising photos with other women. It's hard to tell what the photos mean, but I would not want to come home to my wife looking at them. That may be the reason. Very few couples stay married after losing a child, even when it is a loss from disease. I believe murder and suicide are far worse than accident and disease. But any loss is very hard.

Every single marriage needs true contrition and genuine forgiveness. Both partners must repent and forgive.

Where did you get your info about marriges falling apart after losing children?

Personally, I don't see much dividing in there. All seems to go in one direction.

You're right; she sounds extremely pissed. Maybe she's mad that she didn't get any of the adulation that John is getting. After all, she lost a son too.

I sense a great deal of anger in Reve. Maybe John ought to give her a pillow to pound on.

[sinkspur]

A tabloid had John Walsh in compromising photos with other women.

Well, if that's true, then I can understand Reve's rage.

The only reason John got his gig is because he lost a son and the country embraced him.

If he's gonna pull a Frank Gifford, then he deserves what he gets.

[Palladin]

The marriage was rocky from the start, even before Adam was taken. After the abduction, the first guy questioned was Reve's boyfriend that she had on the side.

The miracle here is that this shambles of a marriage lasted so long...on paper.

[Chemnitz]

You have to be a Linux/Unix fan. Me too. I don't have statistics at hand. It is commonly said among doctors who deal with parents losing a child. How accurate is that? I imagine that would be good to pursue.
