Topic : 03/16 Cheerleader Scandal

I was watching the show and thinking the same thing...I do believe that the finger of guilt will point directly at Brandi!!!

First I would like to say how terrible this situation must be for both families.  My heart goes out to all of the parents involved.  The interview with Brandi was very telling for me.  It was the words she used and her facial expressions that lead me to believe that she is in fact guilty of manslaughter.  I think she lost control of her emotions and took his life.    I believe a just sentence was conferred upon her.  I also believe that young good people such as her deserve second chances.  I also believe that the only way she can come to terms with her own situation is to admit to the parole board exactly what happened, including her own guilt.  I believe that after she admits her mistake in full, that she should be paroled to the custody of her family.  I believe in this way that justice can be fully served. 

Weather Brandi is guildty or not is up to the judge and the jury.. at this point she has been found guilty... IF enough evidence is produced to secure a second trial to try and overturn the first then so be it.. the fact will continue prove themselves one way or another. I hold no judgement as i don't have all the fact other then what was witness today... But as another view just posted.. teenagers act irrational when facing critical and sometimes, unknown to them at that time, critical live changing events. At this moment I DO however hold judgement on both familys.. Brandi's family has suffered a loss ... while she is alive and well she is not with them.. she is not a member of the family on holidays and special occasions nor will she be for 8 more years. This is a loss in its own rights. Her family needs to move forward... the pity trip is just gonna further the mothers medical problems till the suffer a second loss.... her death..  Her brother.. he is too young to be dwelling on the fact day after day after day...he needs to seek councilling to deal with his emotions and move on as a young man and grow up learning the most crucial and valuable lifes lesson here in this story. Think before you react.. consequnces are forever! As for the father.. yes i too believe he is being too belittling of the mother of  Daniel... her not being immediately in his life had NO decision or bearing on what happened that night..  Now for the mother of Daniel. I feel for her loss. I have worked numerous years as a paramedic/ firefighter and have dealt with loss of life on many occasions. but her loss is gonne be ever greater is she continues her path of pure hatred and wanting revenge. The courts have decided... there is nothing else she can do about it. Yes hating her make you feel warm inside.... for now. But while you comsume yourself with the hatred of Brandi you will loose sight of the rest of the family who has lossed as well.. i beleive it was a daughter present with them... what are you teaching her by showing pure hatred? No one say welcome them with open arms and start a relationship with each others family BUT you can learn to forgive. This will not only heal yourself but your family as well.. Revenge and hatred are in the news and our news papers every single day. it just breeds more hatred and more evil and soon  it will take another life. then another then another... While i am not trained in psychology i think both family could benefit from councilling to learn to deal with their losses and how to move forward. THEIR lives are still very much before them. Do something with your life. If you don't want to forget Daniel, Start a program in school teaching our teenagers how to cope with stress, how to deal with relationships, how to deal with loss, anything its better then breeding more hatred...

This girl is going to be pushing 30 when she gets out of jail. She could come back into the world even harder and more coniving....with the love and support of her twisted family. 

  

God help the poor man that falls into her arms then. 

A persons perception is a persons reality. We choose our experiences, these eight people have choosen quite tangled tale. If your children are playing in the back yard and you absolutely know they are safe, do you really care what game they are playing? Doctor, I don't think you even cracked the egg today, but you have my deepest respect for trying.
