This home was built after their divorce. I don't know if she got these furnishings in her divorce. If she didn't want them, why was she furnishing her home with them? Why didn't she sell these things and purchase new things?
I don't understand this either. We bought a model home that was furnished and we had to pay 5K separately for the furnishings if we wanted them and we did.
Why question what a murdered woman did with her own furniture way back, what, 8 years ago at the beginning of a new marriage. What on earth difference would it make? How would that relate to his murdering her and the children?
Thornton CO, I believe.
Have you seen a W-2 for Shan'ann's earnings? Until I see what she actually earned, I don't believe that most MLM employees make much at all. Shan'ann tried her hand at several MLM's before Thrive.
Didn't he admit he screwed up in the prison interview by contacting the realtor and the school that morning?
Self-employed people do not get W-2's. They declare their income, usually, as an independent contractor, using a 1040 schedule C, profit and loss form to subtract expenses from gross profit to calculate a net income. You may not believe MLM ppl earn much, some do and some don't, like any other sales position, but her own husband said she made as much as he did. (And that she was such a great salesperson she could sell the clothes on your back right back to you!)
It is just an excuse and if Chris really wanted to be involved in the finances he would have been. She wouldn’t let me- he is a grown man who was content, per his own words being in the background. I believe NK may have fueled that fire. She was quite adamant speaking about the car and furnishings although she knew nothing of their finances. The car was paid for by Level. SW was already talking to a realtor about selling the house and downsizing to help with their finances.
None us know why but what has that got to do with her and her children’s murder?
It has to do with a mindset about money and finances. Why would a person just leave valuable furnishings and not take them with you or sell them for the money? It wasn't like they were rich.
Oops, thanks. Maybe I got mixed up because she was looking for an apartment for him in Brighton? Or do I have that wrong too?
That is interesting. So many family annihilators go that route - an act of total control and brutality and then take their own life. With CW, I really see it less as control, rage, financial obligations, etc...as much as he simply saw his family as toys he was done playing with and caring for and was ready to move on to the next stimulation, his mistress. I think he was an expert at mimicking empathy in his life (prior to having to mimic a grieving or scared husband - that was seemingly beyond his repertoire)- so much so that people are still in disbelief. The perfect father and husband. No hinky meter to set off with most of us nor anyone in his life, really. I still see him as viewing his family as a prized, lovingly rebuilt vintage car he once loved but was now unable to keep it in a "one car garage life" so it had to go to make room for the new one. Simple as that to me. MOO
Oh, wow, I didn't know that there was talk on SM about her flight not really being delayed. That explains a lot. I thought it sounded like he was lying when he said that! Imo
According to Chris, he was happy and content in his marriage prior to meeting NK. Prior to the murders, Shannan had already contacted a realtor to sell the house and downsize , she was on board with correcting their finances. I don’t see the finances becoming a motive in 5 or 6 weeks, I see them as an excuse. He repeateded several times if not for NK, he would still be married and I think he was being truthful. He could never articulate a specific reason for his so called rage. I think he was able to disconnect from his family because they no longer were what he wanted, he wanted a different life. He stated in his interview he got used to not having to deal with kids, to being a bachelor, that doesn’t happen in 5 weeks unless you are void of the eternal emotions that would keep you attached and bonded to your children.
Chris said his mother still thinks he is being railroaded?
Of course. It was just one more huge obstacle for him. He may have wanted a baby before NK came along, but now how was it going to look? The first thing he said to her when she found out was, "Are we still going to be Ok?" Imo
