"Going to" and "penatrating" are two different things. As Jeana said, going to the bone on an arm doesn't take much. In fact, many "superficial" cuts could do that. Darlie was a small person.

As DP pointed out she was narcisistic, had a "sick" obsession with herself, and a little bit of coke in the house. Not to mention being a "chronic" overspenderRobertStJames said:Susan Smith was a chronic alcoholic carrying on three affairs at the same time. Diane Downs had a sick obsession with a guy in Arizona.
Show me anything even remotely similar in Darlie's background.

This is Parchman being questioned:
21 Q. Yes. Um-hum. And, did the physician
22 who was there (ER), that you, whose name you can't recall, did
23 he tell you that the one wound was -- did more than just
24 penetrate the skin?
25 A. He said the larger wound on her right
1 forearm went to the bone.
2 Q. Went to the bone?
3 A. Yes.
4 Q. That's as far as it could go, I guess,
5 isn't it?
6 A. Well, if you examine that portion of
7 your right forearm, you're virtually over bone.
8 Q. Well, didn't you --
9 A. I'm just saying you don't have to go
10 very far in terms of portions of an inch --
11 Q. Yes.
12 A. -- to get to the bone.
I think that's perfectly clear, don't you? Knife wound to the bone.

Youth + being overwhelmed + financial problems + marriage problems + diet pills + post partum depression = poor mental state

There is abundant similarities to literally thousands of other victims who have survived knife assaults.****rstjRobertStJames said:Because you offered nothing new other than your interpretations which are simply not substantiated. Darlie's wounds are defense wounds. There is abundant similarities to literally thousands of other victims who have survived knife assaults. There is not a single case where anyone "self-inflicted" these kinds of wounds in order to cover up a murder. Viz. Diane Downs. If people want to continue imagining that these are *not* defensive wounds, that's their business. But the point is too obvious to even be worth arguing. It belongs in the same category as "Patsy Ramsey wrote the ransom note."

Now you are just sounding ridiculous. How many of these "thousands" of cases have you personally seen. I used to do this for a living Robert so don't bother trying to BS me.
I'm curious, RstJ... are you an ME or a homicide detective?RobertStJames said:You were an ME? A homicide detective? Because those are the kind of specialists who know the difference. Just working in a medical setting doesn't make you an expert. Especially if it's your opinion that the serious, and multiple, injuries suffered by Darlie Routier were self-inflicted.

Yes actually RstJ. I was a Homicide Investigator, a member of Homicide Investigators of Texas, and well involved with this case over the course of 10 years.RobertStJames said:You were an ME?
