Link includes open letter from Mr. Foreman Jr.:
"And thats okay. No one needs to know my dad. I think before this all happened, my dad would have liked to be famous. Im not speaking for him but Im pretty sure thats not the case anymore"
Having read that blog - whilst I have a great deal of sympathy for what he has written as heartfelt as it is, the problem is that Mr Foreman Junior has absolutely no comment to make on some of the things his father has said in the various interviews he has given.
Things that were best left unsaid (even if he thought them privately) - particularly in regard to Travis and his 'certainty' that Jodi was 'mentally and emotionally abused', not to mention his criticism of the prosecutor treating them 'like idiots' and so on, and going as far as criticising the judicial system as being 'flawed' ... a system that he agreed to participate in and then complains about afterward.
If he had just waited ... taken time to consider, to allow things to settle and for the family to absorb what had happened and regroup.
But he didn't. He just leapt right in and told us how he believed part of her story of abuse, how he would like to communicate with her. How she didn't look like a murderer and all that kind of thing.
I think that's where a lot of the criticism of Mr Foreman is aimed. Not so much at his decision, which is his alone to make of course, but rather his insensitive comments so soon after the event.
I abhor the fact that this man has been threatened and received hate mail and so on. There is always a small minority that is prepared to take things way too far. However, did Mr Foreman genuinely think that his comments were not going to invite some response?
Just my opinion of course.
