Topic : 03/16 Cheerleader Scandal

It is very easy for me to call them evil...because anyone with a heart would have been more apologetic, more concern, and a whole lot nicer. They came across as nasty people that were only concerned about their child...What about the other family...THEY LOST THEIR SON!!! HELLO!!!!! Maybe an apology...instead they attacked that family...they insisted that their son committed suicide by jumping in front of that car...that is heartless and evil!!!...there I said it again...

His name is DANIEL not Don please never make that mistake again

The tire tracks are extremely important to the case. If she drove into the yard and struck him...that is very clear that it was intentional.

It was stated at the begining of the show that Brandi told her parents that Daniel jumped in front of her car waving his hands and she hit him-What I would like to know is was there tire marks from her car trying to stop? Our instincts as human beings are to slam on our brakes or to swerv from whatever is in front of us, if there was no sign of her doing that then that showns that it wasn't an accident. Something else I don't understand is that she was afraid of him because he supposedly threatened her and her brothers life - but why did she go to is house twice that night why didn't she call the police and notify them of the treats? She also said that once she hit him she didn't stop to check on him because she was afraid he would kill her-he would have to be a powerfully strong person to be hit by a car and thrown 58 feet and get up and kill her. Her story doesn't make since at all, she contrdicted herself over and over again and tried to make it out that she was the victim. I hope she does have to serve the whole 12 years, me personally I think she got off pretty easy. Her mom stated that Brandi will have to live with this the rest of her life-exactly she gets to LIVE!!! What about Daniel??? 

  

And to her family - You ought to be thankful that you have your daughter. You can talk to her, you can see her, you can celebrate holidays with her, you can see her continue to grow, you will watch her get maried and have children. You want to compare your situation to that of Daniels family there is no comparsion what so ever, you have your daughter they lost their son. For you to even think that its remotly the same thing proves that you are heartless people. 

You said yourself that she was in a bad position...She was madly in love with him...she was not thinking clearly...She might not have went there with the intent to kill him...but once she got there and became enraged...she did it!!! She was an emotional wreck...she went there, ran him over, and went home and covered it up...Sorry you have such a poor bestfriend...because she deserves jail and her parents need a wake up call...And that is horrible to speak badly of his mother..If she did leave her son...don't you think she is suffering now??? especially if she kicked him out...she is probably living with horrible guilt...And if Brandi was sooo great...why did she get involved with him??..He did not deserve death!!!!

 What are you thinkig are you crazy. My Brother never mentioned in his life that he was going to kill her or her brother let alone him self. He had full scolarships to school and football. You really dont know what you are talking about  cause that is what her family said  All you guys go by is what brandi and her family says and that is bull. We didnt get a chance to tell the truth. IT WAS NOT SUICIDE 

 

 

 

                                                                   CRYSTAL (DANIELS SISTER) 

Life is not fair and it is not fair that this happened to these families but life dose go on and for Daniel's mother to call Brandi's mother a piss poor mother was uncalled for. This could have easily been the other way around.  How would she have felt to be called that by somebody eles.  The fact of the matter is that parents can't be in charge of what an adult child does and at the age of 17 she was pretty much an adult.  I feel like if all the screaming that the sister says was going on was really doing on she would have went out side and saw for her self what was indeed going on.  It is true that Daniel will never come back no matter what Brandi does or how much time she spends in jail and it is also true that not forgiveing her will not bring him back.  So all the hatred that they have in there hearts is just going to sit there and kill them slowly and no matter if it was not intented Daniel would not have wanted his family to waste away like that. To Brandi's parents if you want Brandi to have someone to come home to you'll need to stop feeling sorry for yourself and her ,pull together and PRAY that when she does come home she can forgive herself and have a normal life.  To Brandi's bother WAKE UP and don't let this ruin your life you are still on the outside of jail for your sister don't end up on the inside. I will be preying for all of you. God Bless. 

He might have been a bad guy...but he did not deserve death...and her parents are still unapologetic...She should have either told someone...or called th police...instead, she killed him!! And her parents handled the entire situation without any concern for the other family or Daniel.

What state did this occur in?

My 13 year old son was hit 4 weeks ago on his bike about 3 blocks away.  We live in the country.  He was hit by the corner of a pick up and landed on top of the pickup, cut his chin on the antenna and was then landed 50 feet from the point of impact.  After being life flighted 45 miles, broken jaw and wired shut, broken teeth, stitches, bruises, surgery...  I CAN ONLY PRAISE GOD HE IS STILL ALIVE.  I could have never tried to make the man whom hit my son feel bad in anyway.  I immediately forgave him at the scene and told him not to loose sleep because accidents happen.  The Bible says God will only give us what we can handle... Now I know if my son would have died I could not have handled it.  For the simple fact that I was not loving my son and appreciating him like I should have.  Making him feel like he was the most important thing in my life every single day.  (I try harder now)  Like Dr. Phil's wife told the man the otherday likewise our children are a gift from God as a wife is to a husband.  Life is full of trials and tribulations and God knows I am probably one of the biggest whinners when it comes to why is this happening????  What am I to learn from this???  How can I grow.  You know a lot of people are right when they say there are other people that are still alive and need you.  For the mother with the loss of her son I also have a 17 year old son, 18 in November.  I my gosh I can't even imagine your pain.  But the brush of death with my 13 year old really has woke me to alot of things.  I honestly believe there is a time to live and time to die.  May sound bad but think about all the weird things that happen.  Your pain and anguish is so visable.  Not surprised of course may God Bless all of you.  He is however the cure to our pain.  Seek him and His forgiveness.  Once you expeirence to forgiveness of Jesus you will surely understand how it is so important to forgive and live in peace.  To lean upon His understanding and not our own.  Because we can't.  Start to pray.. Read your Bible and you will begin to understand so much of why the world is the way it is.  Begin to heal in having faith that your son is with God and in a much better place.  Don't have much to say about the girl because I don't want to judge.  Let God be the judge.  As He says Let vengance be His, He will repay...to those who don't repent....But He also says to the things we judge we will also be judged.  Think about that people.  Love you all.....Talk to you soon.....
