Is there anyone that believes Ross is innocent?

Doesn't his sexting cause problems at home and at work?

He is willing to risk his marriage and his job for sexting,

Is that not addictive behavior?

Substitute gambling or shopping.

I agree. A person should be able to get through an 8 hour work day without sending/receiving naked pictures. Or at least a 5-hour work day, as in RH's case. I think it is very dysfunctional that he was apparently unable to get through the work day without sexting. How many employers would consider that part of a productive work day? Would you think it's normal, functional or efficient for your babysitter to be sexting while caring for your children? Even if she got them fed, changed and didn't leave them in a hot car to die? Would you be content to be paying her for doing that on your (and your kids') time?
 
The "Ferris Bueller of Tuscaloosa". At age 28. :sick:
Interesting that you reposted this Ferris Beuller quote from BM.


"Ferris Bueller was a Sociopath"

"Okay, so technically he can’t
really be a sociopath because you can’t diagnose that in a teenager since the part of the brain that regulates conscience isn’t fully developed yet."

RH was 28. Technically he should not have been acting like Ferris. That IMO tells me people who knew him were ignoring the signs.

Ibam not trying to debate what his diagnosis might be, whatever it is his behavior could point toward his innocence.


This was an interesting read.
Everyone knew him to be the Ferris Bueller of Tuscaloosa...



All posts are MOO
 
:) I dont see Ferris as a sociopath. ;)

BBM- So, people should be charged for the way they look ??? :eek:
Lol, I'm pretty sure that by "piggishness" she was referring to the BEHAVIOR of sexting minors, not his appearance. (Although his appearance is unfortunate).
 
BBM- So, people should be charged for the way they look ??? :eek:

I believe in this instance, "piggishness" refers to his sexting both while at work, and at home, with is family right there with him.
 
You mean because he went to church?

Lol, no. Because he didn't tell his friends, co-workers, business partners, family and church members that he was sexting random women he met through various messaging services, including a minor, and engaging in this behavior when he was supposed to be working and while at home with his family present. No one in his life (besides his wife) seemed to have any idea. Do you think that they are all lying?

Many of a person's extra-curricular activities may remain undisclosed to friends, family etc. and still be consistent with being a loyal spouse, responsible parent and law-abiding citizen. Sending pictures of one's penis to a minor and receiving pictures of underage girls' breasts unfortunately is not one of them. Even if you want to give him a break on the sexting in general because he was still able to hold down a job, play guitar at church, and watch cartoons with his son, the exchange of pornographic material with a minor is problematic and apparently not something he was willing to advertise to friends and family. Hence, he is NOT who he portrayed himself to be.

I'm not begrudging people a secret life, but RH's interfered with his ability to be a productive employee and a responsible parent. Not to mention that a portion of it was illegal.
 
He isn't innocent because his child died on his watch. But now that it was the detectives testimony that swayed me and it has been called into question and backed up with video, I don't know if I believe it was truly a deliberate act. I think that JRH has issues and he is most likely a crappy husband, but I don't see any evidence of him being a crappy father at this point and will now be waiting for trial.

I just don't know what I think any more. But without the detectives embellishing and trying to sway people? I don't know what I think.

You have summed up where I am at the moment. I wish I had worded the title of the thread differently.
 
I would argue that he WAS a crappy Dad too:
1-destroying his marriage with these sexting relationships 2-compromising his income by being a bad employee 3-negligence in the care of his child which resulted in death 4-hypersexualized behavior in the presence of his child
 
I wanted everyone to see the full context of the conversation regarding the "piggishness" remark. We wouldn't want anyone to be wrongly accused of wanting RH charged because of the way he looks. HTH.

I think the fact that Cooper died a horrific death in a hot car while Ross texted pics of his (or someone else's) peen makes him a really crappy father. JMO.

And to minors no less!

Thank you. So is that a felony or a misdemeanor? I hope he is charged with that disgusting piggishness as well.
BBM. See, EvilSoup wants RH charged with the digusting piggishness behavior of sending pict of his peen to minors. Not for the way he looks.

You are absolutely right. See my bolded above.

Yes, right again. See my bolded above.

 
Just to say that confusion over looking left or right is not that uncommon. At least in lefties. The whole "changing lanes" "looking right" thing could be a bit muddy.

But sorry.

When I was driving somewhere yesterday and had to make a right turn, I thought about this case immediately and what may or may not have been visible when making a right turn vs. changing lanes. As soon as I looked right to make my turn, my peripheral vision immediately picked up a very clear view of the center back seat- no question about it. After doing it several times and without even turning my head a full 90 degrees, I could still clearly see the backseat. Barring some type of physiological optical problem that would limit one's peripheral vision or literally wearing blinders that blocked it, there was no scenario whatsoever when looking to my right that kept the center back seat out of my visibility range. None, and that was with an empty back seat- if my dog had been back there in his seat belt harness, there is no way on earth I could have not seen him. As mentioned before, I don't have any kids, but even with my dog, I am SO aware that he is in the car with me, even if he is quiet or sleeping. I always know he's there and make sure he's OK, getting enough air conditioning, not tangled in his harness, etc. and this is my dog. Speaking only for myself (and 30+ years with 3 different beloved dogs), I have never, ever had any distraction or event that came remotely close to me forgetting they were there. It just blows my mind totally that someone could forget their child....I know and understand that have been horrible accidents where this has happened due to "auto pilot" mode during repetitive routines, changes in regular routines and/or the mind creating false memories. I can't even begin to imagine the terror of a true accident like this occurring- it's beyond comprehension, but again, speaking only for myself and remembering the long ago days when taking/driving my two baby/toddler god children anywhere, I simply cannot wrap my mind around anyone forgetting their child was with them- not under any circumstance. IMHO, JMO, MOO....

You can alert a mod and ask them to change the title for you.

This is actually true.

Current brain research shows that the adolescent brain is much like the toddler brain: poor impulse control, heightened risk-taking, grandiose behaviors and even hypersexuality. (The latter is more apparent in adolescents; young children DO experience sexual stimulation, and are intrigued by it, but do not typically engage in sexual activity with other children or with adults unless they have been victims of sexual abuse.)

Typically, the adolescent period ends when the myenlination of the frontal cortex(which controls executive functioning) is complete. This usually occurs between the ages of 18 and 20, and sometimes as late as 24 years. (Which is not uncommon, but not typical)

People with ADHD experience a myenlination rate about 30% slower than that of typical children. (I don't think this is hard science, just recent data). Therefore, they may mature slower in social and emotional areas, and may show lack of impulse control far beyond the expected age.

I do not believe that ADHD is co morbid with sociopathy. I see statements like that quite often, and can attest to MANY ADHD people who are very caring, empathetic and concerned with other people and their needs. I am not suggesting RH is ADHD/ADD. Just making a note of his immature behavior and his lack of conscience.

However, I do see that whatever RH's issues were, they were evident in his blatant immaturity and FGS, that stupid Beiber haircut.

Sorry. Had to say it.

Wow! Yes.

My comment was about how disgusting it was for a grown, married father to be sending pictures of his junk to a minor.

I won't ever be convinced that is not a total pig move.

And I say that with misgivings about slurring the good name of our porcine brethren.
 
Glad we got THAT all cleared up:happydance:

Although living in Tuscaloosa, for some reason, attending the University alluded Ross straight out of high school. I give credit to Leanna for the sacrifices she made so that he could earn his college degree. Oh, but immature Ross partied with the college boys even though he was much older than the current students. He never stopped partying, imo.
And who takes a selfie of themselves while standing in front of a urinal? That it occurs at what appears to be a very nice establishment does not change my opinion of his maturity level. That's just nasty and that's jmo.

Let's take a look at the many faces of Ross Harris, shall we?

moo and all that jazz
 
I thought of a question while reading this thread, but this may not be the right place to ask it. Please move if necessary!

It's my understanding that the sexting with a 16/17 yr old is not illegal in GA, but it is a federal crime. Would charges for that be determined by the GA Grand Jury or would that be a separate process entirely? And when are they going to be presenting this to the GJ?
