I also submit to you that if the vacuum was there and neither of these police officers noticed it, they're not very observant and perhaps should re-think their career choice. He was treated, evaluated, and it was determined that he was not a serious suicide risk. There is a chapter in that book that struck me like lightning, and I couldn't get it out of my mind. In 1997, a court found Darlie Lynn Routier guilty of probably the worst of human crimes: killing two of her natural children in cold-blood. Former cheerleader Darlie Routier had always been proud of her good looks. So what's the deal with the Innocence Project? It would have to be proven that: the witness knowingly gave false testimony; this testimony had a direct influence on the court decisions and/or verdict; and that the prosecution was aware of the false nature of the testimony--which even I have to concede that they may not have been. All right. Below is a link to another 911 call from a woman who found an abandoned newborn in her outside trash can. If she was just seeking attention, it would make more sense to call the police the very next day upon hearing about the murders. Darlie was convicted in 1996 for the murder of two of her sons. Barbara was never their maid, she was an employee of their business. I honestly have no idea. But, Darlie has just been confronted with the worst possible scene imaginable. She actually named a couple of different suspects in her letters. None of these areas appear clean. Mr. Harrell was never on any witness list and did not plan on testifying at all. Worldwide attn & any further dna testing? If the software finds a match, the uploading agency is notified and is then tasked with the dissemination of personal information. Guilters gleefully point out that Darlie used the phrase "I don't know" or "I don't remember" 72 times during her cross examination. [34][35], Unsolved Mysteries with Robert Stack covered the case in Season 12 Episode 6. It certainly isn't impossible, but I formed my opinion based on verifiable facts, and I just haven't seen anything that points to a woman's involvement. Guilters insist the only way this could happen is from Darlie raising the knife over her shoulder while stabbing Damon. During the trial, the prosecution argued that Routier's injuries were self-inflicted, that the crime scene had been staged, and that she murdered her sons because of the family's financial difficulties; the defense argued that there was no reason Routier would have killed her children, and that the case did not have a motive, a confession, or any witnesses. Seems as if Darin is the Ghislaine Maxwell of this case. How will that look? I do not doubt Gorsuch's testimony; to me, it proves that when he saw Darin and Waddell go into the house, it was several minutes after Waddell first arrived. CODIS, or Combined DNA Index System, is a little more complex. Every word spoken between Darlie and Waddell is recorded on the 911 call, and she never once says anything to him about a struggle. However, Matt Walling, the second officer on the scene, actually parked his vehicle in the alleyway behind the Routier's house; Gorsuch would not have been able to see the car from his vantage point. This means that Damon had to have been stabbed within about a minute before the 911 call began. Police officers and experts had no notes for the defense to review. It's laughable. The kids woke up, and all hell broke loose.". In order for blood to be under the glass, Darlie would have to be bleeding before she tossed the glass onto the ground, right? On the night of the murders, around 1:30 am, Mary Angelia Rickels and her 15-year-old daughter were up late watching a horror film. Why, it's all RELATIVE, of course. Okay. [7] After picking up the knife and chasing him away, Routier said she realized that she and her children had been wounded and that she called 9-1-1. Even the best of the best make mistakes, sometimes grievous mistakes. In early 1998, Karl was in jail reading The New Yorker magazine when he came upon an article about the impending execution of Karla Faye Tucker. Did you ever tell her to do that after Sergeant Walling arrived? and we do tend to presume it is a male unconsciously i though male intruder up until you mentioned what the psychic said about been a female. If I had to narrow it down to any one thing, though, it would have to be that sock that was found in an alleyway a good 75 yards from the house. Later in the call, she repeats that she touched the knife and says, "We could have got the prints, maybe." The defense contended that this amounted to only $10,000, not enough to cover their funeral expenses. ;). My belief is that the intruder did not go out the garage window. First he grills her about her diary entry, and then he confronts her with personal letters that were not meant to be read by anyone other than the recipient. She said she saw him, and that once they had more information on him, she was sure she'd be found innocent. I hope it’s the garage door to a new life for her. JustinCase976 (author) on October 29, 2019: Heather Rose, I agree with you completely. The first thing that woke Darlie up was the breaking glass. I do not fault him for that; he is human. I’ve read a lot about this case. I can hear Greg Davis now: "No one would have inflicted those kinds of wounds upon themself.". Q. This is the same officer, by the way, who neglected to collect several bloody towels as evidence, but for some reason retrieved as evidence paperwork on a funeral and headstone for a cat that had died the previous summer. Two of them that testified one after the other used the same peculiar word to describe her: whiny. Would she really risk that? Even a moron can conclude that Darlie was simply repeating information that was being fed to her. Did Sergeant Walling ever tell her to administer first aid? But prior to going to the hospital, I thought he was given clothes to wear from Terry Neal across the street. There were young children, in the room, and a fight broke out. I did point this out in a comment, but the author chose not to publish the comment. The great news is that Darlie will finally be free. JustinCase976 (author) on March 05, 2020: I'm here, sorry, have had a lot going on. Q. I love you three more than anything else in this world…I don’t want you to see a miserable person every time you look at me. SMH. So many questions...... too many coincidences. ALTOONA, Pa. (AP) — When Altoona native Darlie Lynn Routier was convicted by a Texas jury in February 1997 of stabbing to death her young son, Damon, 5, and by implication, her other son, Devon, 6, she reportedly cried out, "I did not kill my babies." I don't believe that Darin actually communicated with any of the intruders directly; I think there was a middle man who set this all up and somewhere along the line there was a miscommunication with regard to the dates the house would be empty. Guilters will say that Darlie attacked the boys, and then ran down the alleyway to plant the sock before running back to the house, seeing Damon was still alive and moving around, and then stabbing him again before inflicting her own injuries. I think she was a bit of a drama queen that made a big deal out of absolutely nothing. I'm stunned that Darlie's lead defense attorney Doug Mulder did not immediately jump on this discrepancy...but I have long suspected that Mulder may have purposely "thrown" this case, for reasons known only to him. If you had, you would know that the motion light was located by the spa, at the BACK of the yard. I just can't buy the idea that Darlie was the one who murdered her kids. A large amount of blood was found in front of the sink, indicating she stood there bleeding for some time. The public Facebook page for Darlie just locked down - accepting no new members. As the man made his escape, he dropped a large butcher knife onto the floor. Although the Medical Examiner found this to be highly suspicious, in the end, his death was classified as a suicide. You either understand the effects of psychological trauma and the memory lapses that accompany it, or you don't. If this is where Darlie cut her throat and stabbed herself in the arm, where is all the castoff blood? She stated that as she approached him, the man fled, dropping the knife in a utility room as he ran. Darlie’s legal defense is free, but investigating the facts and testing the evidence is not. Since her husband worked nights and often came home during his break to check on her, she was not unduly concerned even when the "jiggling" at the door continued. Everyone seems to have a theory as to how it got there.
