She turned on the porch light and the men ran off. Okay. The CPR is taking place in the Roman room (family room, den, whatever you want to call it), which is toward the back of the house, past the kitchen area. Q. So then they went to plan B and used a hunting knife to slice open the screen. She was in and out of consciousness, and for the time that she was conscious, she would have been in fight-or-flight mode. In the book, Cruz describes how Darlie received a letter in 1998 from an inmate at another facility. Did you ever tell her to do that after Sergeant Walling arrived? In honor of the boys, the family chose this as one of the songs to be played at their funeral. Paramedics arrived at the scene at about 2:40, and paramedic Jack Kolbye witnessed Damon gasp his last breath immediately after he began attending to him. We all know that Darrin was into kristal meth and many more crimes. Are the others ever held accountable? JustinCase976 (author) on October 29, 2019: Heather Rose, I agree with you completely. It's laughable. A song about violence and death at the funeral of two slain little boys? Over the years, her story would pop up on various television shows, or was featured on the news whenever a new development came up. How short notice? He loved to cut things and show off with his knife. And behind every car dealer is a bigger car dealer .. a more savy heavier car dealer . JustinCase976 (author) on December 17, 2019: I just realized I missed one of your questions. Q. He says "what mother wouldn't run upstairs to see for herself that the baby was unharmed" so that right there settles it, S Clemmons is definitely a man. His reply cannot be heard; he may have answered non-verbally with a nod, but he's in the room with Darlie when she asks the question. Some of these errors were minor; many were not. She effectively communicated within the first few seconds that she and the children were injured and needed help. The 6th of June 1996 2021 8:30:09 GMT -5: Total Posts:. Darlie routier dna results 2020 Transcript for Darley Rathier remains on death row for killing her son: Part 11 Darley has been on death row for 22 years and she still has no date for execution. Rickels, a 34-year-old registered nurse who lived about a half a mile from the Routiers, testified that she heard the sounds of someone trying to get in the front door. The circle indicates this is Devon's blood on the back of Darlie's night shirt. For the love of God, what is your obsession with Dr. Phil? With Darlie's appeal still pending, the results of this forensic evidence could allow her to retry her case. In Darlie's case, she probably subconsciously realized there had been more than one person, but since she only has a memory of seeing one of them, her confusion is understandable. So which one is true? Whatever it is, it must be favorable for Darlie. These fibers are also consistent with the brushes used for fingerprint dusting, and the knives were dusted for prints immediately after the screen, making a great case for cross-contamination. And then were awakenedwhat awakened you the second time, do you know? In fact, why would you call 911 at all unless you were sure they were both dead? Even if he heard something, the dog would not have realized there were strangers in the house; he wasn't close enough to smell them. and like the article you wrote about the case Speaking of Psychics . What was he a suspect for, a whole 2 hours? On the nights when Darlie would sleep on the couch, that wasn't an issue. Darin was on baby duty, so she was able to allow herself to fall into a heavier sleep with the knowledge that she would not have to get up in the night and tend to Drake. An attorney representing Darlie Routier, a former Altoona woman facing the death penalty in Texas for the murder of her two young children 25 years ago, said he is buoyed by an order issued. There were two strange men standing on her front porch. That was their habit for the four years that they had Domain, and there is no reason to believe that they deviated from that habit on the night in question. Darlie's DNA trail is shown in green, Devon's in yellow, and Damon's in red. Hmmmm. Of course, she didn't do that, because she knew full well the baby was fine. Darlie Routier with Damon (left) and Devon (right). So many questions too many coincidences. I see what you're saying, Curious George. Why wouldn't her prints be on it? She had some over-the-counter sleeping pills on hand, but as she was writing the note, she abandoned the idea and did the healthiest thing possible: she reached out for help. This is actually quite common when victims refer to an unknown assailant or assailants. Did she struggle with the intruder? JustinCase976 (author) on March 10, 2020: Yes Adele, I think the two inmates are the most logical suspects here. She was tried for the murder of her youngest son, 5-year-old Damon, found guilty, and, on February 4, 1997, sentenced to death. If the software finds a match, the uploading agency is notified and is then tasked with the dissemination of personal information. As for leaving Darlie alive, the guy that cut her most likely thought he had finished her off. A. I don't know what Sergeant Walling told either one of them. Groggy and confused, Darlie instinctively followed the man through her kitchen toward the utility room that leads out to a garage. So here's my challenge to you: Find me proof of such a crime. She was somehow sophisticated enough to think of stabbing herself in her dominant arm, and slit her own throat with her non-dominant hand while standing in front of the sink. Darlie's plaintive reply is "Now I hang up?". I just figured, you know, what can the police do now?" For the love of God, think of the children! She actually named a couple of different suspects in her letters. Darin and Darlie Routier were a young couple in their 20s with 3 children, 6-year-old Devon, 5-year-old Damon, and 8-month-old Drake. Of course, the "guilters" took that and ran with it. Guilters insist the only way this could happen is from Darlie raising the knife over her shoulder while stabbing Damon. I interpret that as another sign of innocence; it's not definitive, but I doubt a guilty person would have taken that chance. The prosecution team was very good at setting the stage and creating the character of "Darlie the Killer." The implants were a gift from Darin. Patterson would have been forced to admit in open court that no such confession had been made, at which point Mulder should have smiled like a shark, said "Thank you, no further questions" and sat down like the boss he was supposed to be. There was no exact match to any prints that are in the systemincluding Darlie Routier's. Darlie's 911 call came in at 2:31 am. Bruising on her arms prob caused by boys kicking her off. Each witness was able to hear what the others would be saying on the stand. James Cron, a retired "crime scene analyst," arrived at the Routier home around 6:00 am. About 1520 minutes later, Rickels heard noises again, this time coming from her daughter's empty first floor bedroom. Well C. George, in a perfect world, the others would definitely be held accountable. There is no tone, no inflection, no facial expressions or body language. By L.P Phillips, NewsRadio 1080 KRLD April 30, 2021 8:31 am DALLAS (1080 KRLD)- The Rowlett woman convicted of capital murder and sentenced to death over the 1996 deaths of her two sons is getting a powerful ally. At the very end of the call, the operator tells her to go talk to the police officers. Darlie Routier is now 48 years old. At around 2:30 in the morning of June 6, 1996, Rowlett, Texas homemaker Darlie Routier awoke on her family room couch to see the silhouette of a man walking away from her in the dark. Again, Alan Brantley was instructed by the prosecution to not put his professional opinion in writing. It was kind of hard to miss. The sock had to have been placed in the alleyway after the children were stabbed, since spots of blood on the sock were sourced to both of the boys. Ted Bundy exhibited an intense amount of rage when he broke into that sorority house and brutally bashed and strangled those women, but he didn't know a single one of them personally. These worms keep telling lies. Doesn't make sense. Yeah .why wouldnt he inquire the same peeps to help again only 3 years later. 4) What, exactly, do you believe Darlie cleaned the sink with? According to Darlie, she had not had her period since giving birth to Drake and was feeling particularly low on that day. They testified that she did not appear to be grieving appropriately. To believe she is the killer, I would have to believe in one of two scenarios: Even back in 1996 and 1997, I personally was never convinced of Darlie's guilt. They found DNA from a black male on the sock found in the ally. In another, she has no memory of fighting with him. This means that Damon had to have been stabbed within about a minute before the 911 call began. She was calling for help, grabbing towels, running back and forth, etc. If you know Arkansas real name then you know I'm right. As if Rickels' testimony wasn't enough for reasonable doubt, we also have the affidavit filed by Darlene Potter. There was no investigation of Darin. Much has been made of a diary entry in Darlie's journal dated May 3, 1996, a little over a month before the murders. Darlie told police that she heard the sound of breaking glass, and there were glass fragments strewn about the kitchen floor area. Her fans say necklace was embedded, had 2b surgically removed. I don't think any one of us can predict exactly what we would or would not do under those circumstances, and I pray none of us ever has to find out. So riddle me this: How is it possible that Darin can make it all the way through the house, out the front door, into the yard, wait for Waddell to get out of the police car, walk up to him, and ask him to identify himselfin the span of 12 seconds? There is no way that bruising was caused by a 46 pound child kicking at her. I have to echo the same sentiment expressed by Marcia Clark when she described the OJ jury seeing pictures of a bruised and battered Nicole: they saw it, they understood itAND THEY JUST DIDN'T CARE. Imagine the fallout if the public got wind of the fact a child killer literally slipped right under Waddell's nose. In the crime scene photo below, you can clearly see that a shard of glass remains in the holder where the broken glass had been. 5) Yes, the knife came from her house. There was the dna of a black man found at the scene. She must have felt deeply violated. These maggots do not know the facts of the case like me and you. The software will then compare that print to all other prints stored in the database. Wonder what they've been up to all of this time. No, he was referring to someone else entirely. Questioning of Bill Gorsuch by Mr. Toby L. Shook: Q. The state of Texas gave Darlie Routier the trial and verdict they WISHED they could have given Susan Smith. Darlie has always maintained her innocence. If my wife started screaming downstairs Id be haulin arse to get down there. There was no cancelled trip as far as I know. Many people believe that an intruder broke into 26 year old Darlie's Rowlett, Texas home and murdered her young bo Q. Dideverything she told you, did she tell you that before Sergeant Walling arrived? Waddell was transferred out of Rowlett shortly after the murders; he was with the Plano PD when he came back several months later to testify in the trial. When ordered to produce those tapes and turn them in, Sandra complied, but there were still a couple of tapes missing. Arkansas had also requested to see a psychiatrist while in jail, as he claimed he was suffering from nightmares and flashbacks related to one of his past crimes. It fell off when bandage removed. Not to mention the fact that the whole Dr. Phil thing was spearheaded by non-supporters; you know, the people that want to see Mrs. Kee's child put to death. The affidavit is only mentioned again once more, very briefly, and its contents have never been revealed. Darin was proud of his attractive young wife, and he succeeded in turning her into his version of the perfect woman. According to Karen, in early June of 1996, Arkansas, Dwayne, and a third man "got into a fight about drugs" and took a road trip headed for Dallas in a stolen white truck. Wonder where they went? The spectators got a good chuckle at her expense when Shook replied scathingly that it was not. Justice will be served. The Darlie Routier, a homemaker sent to death in the garage a! She will want Justice. The wheels of justice turn excruciatingly slowly, and even slower in the state of Texas. It makes sense, right? Were Darins pants found? Would she really risk that? I really don't think there's any substance to that theory, and I believe this avenue has been explored with no success. And here's a little snippet from his cross-examination during the same hearing: Q. Um-hum. In part 1 we discuss the crime scene, the injuries, and blood evidence. According to Jovell, I believe she said the accomplice was a friend of her daughter's and that they took the car to a farm in Oklahoma to hide it. It was also so popular that if you listened to any pop stations at all, you were bound to hear it no less than 12 times per day. They could not have an unsolved double homicide of two young children and the general public panicking about a lunatic on the loose. JustinCase976 (author) on December 12, 2019: To my knowledge the missing tapes have never turned up. My theory is that there was no direct communication between Darin and the assailants; I feel like he would have preferred not to know the details. Mary Rickels is a college educated Registered Nurse; yet these people gobble up the testimony of the alcoholic, pill popping and mentally unstable Barbara Jovell without question. 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. When Darlie began to scream for Darin, he ducked into the darkness of the formal dining room, where he waited for his chance to make a break for it. Devon scrambles to his feet and starts for the hallway. I just can't buy the idea that Darlie was the one who murdered her kids. Darin was too busy trying to resuscitate Devon, so he's not the one who got them out. I am tired of feeding them. A. I believe the first thing I asked her was, who had done this. JMO. Is this what you do when you are the one who has stabbed your own children, and one of them is still alive and could possibly identify you as the one who attacked him? Is it in transcripts? That jury was never going to vote not guilty, no matter what. Nonsense. If he could, 85-J would have been uploaded into AFIS years ago. She grabbed a butcher knife and just started stabbing her kids in a rage. The defense wanted to put Mr. Harrell on the stand to bring this discrepancy to the attention of the jury. 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. Darlie Routier - Part 1 Posted on May 15, 2022 by brandyanne2 Darlie Routier is sitting on death row for killing her two young boys, although she has only been officially charged with one of their murders. The timeline was presented by the prosecution and was based on the length of the 911 call, and the testimony of Dr. Janis Townsend-Parchman, the doctor who performed the autopsy on Damon. Rickels explained that the lock was difficult to maneuver and would sometimes take several tries before opening. It's not like she was just standing there, chit-chatting with her girlfriends on the phone. If she was really this calculating, cold-blooded murderer, she had plenty of better opportunities to pull this off. Steve Cooper has known about this evidence for many years but that maggot has not got Texas to look at it. The inmate is identified only as "Karl," but the contents of the letter were a bombshell. Q. From what I know about the suspects, they were definitely high on something, most likely crack cocaine. Because of what happened to that woman in Texas. I have to admit though, I loved the judge from that movie. Trollslayer is probably Bryan st john or Slemmons or Arthur. Last but not least, Devon was MOST DEFINITELY on his feet when he was attacked. Well, if there was, I can't find a record of it. She even went on Facebook and ranted that she was refusing his help because it was a non supporter that contacted his people and then they contacted Kee. Even a moron can conclude that Darlie was simply repeating information that was being fed to her. The results from the system are then evaluated by the examiner, requiring a combination of experience, training, and visual inspection. ;). I honestly have no idea. Okay. What's wrong with this woman? The boys were bleeding from their injuries, but the majority of their bleeding was internal and the blood was mainly confined to the areas in which they were attacked. Putting him in the role of the killer feels just as wrong and forced as putting Darlie in that role. Immediately, she "snapped back," came to her senses and had the presence of mind to do all this staging. The majority of the public felt that Susan Smith should have gotten the death penalty and were outraged when she did not. Hardly. Once Darlie is set free:), what is the next step in solving the crime? Guiltersthose who believe Darlie is guiltyhave a number of familiar reasons for doubting her story. According to her arms, she certainly did. She is not concerned about her own prints being on that knife; it's her knife, from her own kitchen. If the DNA matches the suspect or suspects, an arrest should be imminent. Who has time to change when your kids are stabbed to death and your wife could die too? What happens next? You never told him that any time he was in your house? The examiner makes the final judgment as to whether a match has been found. Two of these associates were a married couple identified in the book as "Dwayne" and "Karen." He enters the Routier home and is immediately bombarded by two hysterical parents screaming (Darin: "Look for a rag! The Innocence Project is paying for the shipment of evidence between laboratories, according to the judges orders. Thanks for commenting. The sock had drops of Devon's and Damon's blood on it, but none of Darlie's blood. Just my theory. When it comes to this case, I have never been confident with either the crime scene preservation or the collection of the evidence. Adding: "What mother, whose children are dead or dying, would even be thinking about fingerprints on a weapon if she's innocent?". 3) I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess you've never been to Eagle Drive. Where is Darlie Routier case > the Darlie Routier free /a > Darlie Routier 2021 update - Darlie Routier is the source of the DNA from the national of. So please forgive me for not taking those transcripts as the holy grail of this case. That's the number one thing convinces me she is guilty. Attorneys for convicted killer Darlie Routier having old evidence tested again Routier, Darlie Lynn Photo credit Texas Department of Criminal Justice By L.P. Phillips, NewsRadio 1080 KRLD December 17, 2021 3:53 am Attorneys for convicted killer Darlie Routier are having old evidence tested again in an effort to try and prove Routier is innocent. Still, Rickels did not call 911. One, two, donewitness dispatched. Why even cut yourself at the sink at all? ", At the time, Karl had been in jail for months and knew nothing of the Rowlett murders. If you think he is anything more than an exploitative, hypocritical quack, I truly feel sorry for you. Darlie Routier cannot be excluded as the contributor of the DNA from 10-2589-502. 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. The prosecution asserted that Darlie had enough time to commit the murders, run 75 yards down the alley to deposit the sock daubed with Devon's and Damon's blood, run back to the house, slash her throat, inflict her other injuries, and stage the scene. Darlie Lynn Peck Routier (born January 4, 1970) is an American woman from Rowlett, Texas, who was convicted and sentenced to death for the murder of her five-year-old son Damon in 1996. Your dad loves you all very much and I know in my heart he will take care of my babies. Can you show me ANY picture of him crushed by this major catastrophic event in his life. None of these areas appear clean. Her husband, Darin, according to court documents, was asleep with the couples newborn in an upstairs bedroom. The biggest discrepancy was that the article cited Greg Davis as the attorney who cross-examined Darlie, when in reality, it was actually Toby Shook. Devon kicks out at the man and catches him squarely in the balls, and the man begins viciously stabbing Devon in a violent rage. Seen lotsa ER people looking neat for the unplanned visit. One of Darlie Routiers attorneys, Richard R. Smith of Dallas, said the judges order was welcome news. Office of the DNA from 10-2589-502 may Set death row for more than years. The stroke, the medication, the horror movie: none of this means that two men with a knife didn't try to break into her house that night. I can understand that, except that I'm at the opposite end of the spectrum. The dog and the cats would chase each other around the house, knocking over knickknacks and houseplants, tracking dirt everywhere, etc. But prior to going to the hospital, I thought he was given clothes to wear from Terry Neal across the street. I do not fault him for that; he is human. Consider this: If Waddell truly did see a man come out of the front door and into the yard when he first arrived and lost sight of that man while getting out of the car and walking up to the house, then it is a reasonable assumption that the person Waddell saw was one of the intruders/killers. I'm sorry, but it just doesn't wash. Q. She was first tried in the media, then she was tried in the court of public opinion, and, finally, she was tried in a courtroom. Since when does rage have to be personal? If Devon had caused that kind of bruising, he had to have been kicking at her inner arms for a prolonged period of timea period of time that was longer than his actual attack. If it quacks like a duck. It's situated on a large .214-acre curving corner lot in the established Dalrock neighborhood. Regardless of what juror Charles Samford said, I think they DID see those pictures. Please do not hate me or think in any way that this is your fault. Quinncy was skeptical, to say the least. This diary entry has been referred to as a "suicide note" and some people actually see it as a confession. If a wet towel or cloth came into contact with any blood in that area, it could have easily wiped it away. Thats what Id say hang on a sec while I change. You had to literally walk right up to the spa to set the light off. However, since Harrell was an integral part of the defense team and had been sitting in the courtroom throughout the trial, any testimony from him fell under the "Rule of Evidence," meaning that because he was able to hear what other witnesses had said, he was not permitted to take the stand. Answer: According to my research, witness perjury alone would not be enough to overturn the conviction. If she was struggling and twisting away from the guy wielding the knife and he slashed at her, the cut would not be a perfect slice all the way across. Pleading the 5th amendment seemed to be a recurring theme in this trial. No one was concerned with trying to preserve a crime scene; the priority was to treat the injured. It makes absolutely no sense that she would clean up a few little areas and then stop, especially while she's actively bleeding. That much I believe; I also believe that in the time it took to park the vehicle, step out, draw his gun, and walk from where he parked to where the man had been standing, he lost sight of him. Q. We hear a desperate mother who was in shock, begging for help. The first guy had already made his exit at that point. His little demonstration showing how castoff blood from the knife supposedly dropped onto Darlie's night shirt by stabbing motions was completely over-exaggerated. Okay. The message was clear: We don't like Darlie Routier, and you shouldn't, either. Now, you were first awakened, and like you said, you didn't understand what the noise was, but apparently you drifted back off to sleep? Darlie Routier - Part 1 Posted on May 15, 2022 Darlie Routier is sitting on death row for killing her two young boys, although she has only been officially charged with one of their murders. I think she was a bit of a drama queen that made a big deal out of absolutely nothing. The Routier home, which has 2,740 square feet, is listed for $396,000, or $145 a square foot. How did you know about that??? He stated: "Whoever killed those boys knew them, and knew them well.". If so, its still the murders and attack unsolved. 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. Her mother, Halina, had just been hired as a housekeeper but only worked 3 days before the murders occurred. A third son, eight-month-old Drake and Darlie's husband, Darin, were asleep in the master bedroom upstairs. Please do not try to tell me that the print was Damon's; the DNA blood map clearly shows that the child went nowhere near the glass table where that print was located. If you had, you would know that the motion light was located by the spa, at the BACK of the yard. Responding to Darlie Routier's hysterical 911 call from her Rowlett, Dallas, home on June 6, 1996, police officers found two of her three sons, 6-year-old Devon and 5-year-old Damon, with fatal stab wounds. It would be nice to settle her case one way or the other. I can understand the theory you have although, just like EPSTEIN DIDNT KILL HIMSELF.. there are so many coincidences ???? Do you set yours rightI bet you set yours right on the money, don't you? Devon and Damon's favorite song was "Gangsta's Paradise," a 1995 hip hop smash hit by rapper Coolio. In several of these letters, Darlie stated that she knew who the killer was. I believe I did read somewhere that this psychic told Darlie that a woman had done it, a woman who was supposedly very jealous of Darlie. She was nervous, intimidated, and probably terrified, but she came off as cold and arrogant. Did you listen to the 911 call? She had suffered a stroke during childbirth the previous fall, she had cardiac issues and was treated for three minor heart attacks during the summer of 1996; plus, she had recently lost her brother and had been prescribed the anti-depressant Trazadone. JustinCase976 (author) on December 11, 2019: You know what, Melia? Legally, I believe this fell under the "Hearsay Exception" and Harrell should have been able to take the stand. Next up is an expert who was never called to testify: Dr. Kenneth Dekleva, the state's own forensic psychiatrist. You remember practically every word that Mrs. Routier said to you, but not much that Sergeant Walling said; is that right? I am also in possession of a crime scene photo that clearly shows there is still some broken glass in the holder. Here's a little piece of that cross-examination that didn't receive nearly as much media time as the rest: Q. If anyone doesn't care to take my word for it, they can always feel free to contact Mountain View and request Darlie's visitor logs, which I believe are public record. When questioned on the witness stand, Rickels stated, "Well, it was over at that point, the men were already gone. Rickels would not actually contact police with this information until June 11th, five days after the murders. The exhibit below shows a "DNA map" of blood trails belonging to each of the injured Routiers. This tiny stain from the back of the shirt is a mixture of both Darlie's and Damon's blood. When Shook confronted her with these letters, she became angry and demanded to know where he had gotten them. This time, one of them had what appeared to be a screwdriver or knife. Darlie's blood was found to have dripped onto it, and there were wheel marks where it appeared the vacuum had been rolled through wet blood. As of 2021, testing is still underway. It's kind of hard to disturb mulch that isn't there Ah, the infamous "sink cleanup." Darlie's first words to the dispatcher were: Somebody came herethey broke in! Darlie Routier, a 26-year-old wife and mother, reported that a knife-wielding intruder had broken into their house, attacking her and her two young sons. It's tempting to assume that's what we would have said in her position. Two of them that testified one after the other used the same peculiar word to describe her: whiny. As you can see, the child went nowhere near the coffee table where the print was located. At this point the second guy grabs the butcher knife from the kitchen so now he's armed too. I would LOVE to know what is in the affidavit of Teresa Powers. Keep in mind, Darlie is on the phone with 911 and Darin is attempting to perform CPR on Devon, who is not breathing. They also found a large, bloody kitchen knife on the counter top, the possible murder weapon.This is the same knife Darlie told 9-1-1 that she already picked up when chasing the man out of her house. Glass remained in the wine rack, proving that this glass was not broken by being thrown to the floor. The unfinished thought suddenly became a "suicide note" and was supposed to be proof of Darlie's mental state. Or perhaps the glass on the footprints truly was staged after Darlie was taken to the hospital. This has been debunked by at least three other experts, but you don't need to be an expert to see that it is way too big for a 5-year-old child's finger. Do you think the jury would of still voted guilty if they had saw all of the pics of her injuries? Now, you and Officeryou were there first, Officer Walling arrived in about three or four minutes; is that correct? Perhaps he was offered a choice: Stick to the script and receive a nice transfer and promotion, or tell the truth and stand in line at the unemployment office. Investigators (and guilters) claim that Darlie's bloody footprints under the broken glass on the floor is further evidence of a staged crime scene. Darlie had already ended the call with 911 by that time, so obviously, this is not when Waddell first arrived on the scene. He was treated, evaluated, and it was determined that he was not a serious suicide risk. The guilters will tell you that there isn't any one thing that convinces them of Darlie's guilt; they say it's the "whole picture." Rickels turned on the bedroom light and once again, the men ran off. A 2008 study showed that short-term stress can damage the brain, taking minutesnot monthsto impact neurons responsible for learning and memory. No, I don't feel as if the nurses were part of a conspiracy. There were millions of dollars worth of investments and development tied up in this desirable little crime-free community. Even if you add a couple of minutes to Parchman's opinion that he only lived eight or nine minutes, that still does not give Darlie enough time to accomplish everything the prosecution claims she did. The main focus was on Devon, who was not breathing. At the time, Darlie had two different private investigators working on the case and feeding her (sometimes conflicting) information. I understand the guilters need to dismiss Rickels as a liar or as mentally unstable. I can understand her anger and frustration at yet another violation of privacy. Because they thought the house was empty, and were taken by surprise. Okay. After the birth of their third one, Drake, Darlie began to suffer from post-partum depression. The photos were shown for the sole purpose of eviscerating an emotional response. I am not responsible for what other supporters say, but I at no time ever stated that her necklace was embedded into her wound, nor did I say it had to be surgically removed. This is good for Darlie in the sense that it adds yet another element of doubt regarding her story of an intruder. WowI never really considered the possibility that perhaps Darin arranged it so that the "burglars" would come in when the family was in the house. JustinCase976 (author) on December 05, 2019: I'll tell you exactly what I think, and have always thought: it's downright IRRESPONSIBLE to rely upon the fractured memories of a traumatized crime victim whose entire recall of that night is like a piece of Swiss cheese. Ha-ha! Darin and Neal had planned this for months against Darlie. Many people believe the call itself is a huge indication of Darlie's guilt, but that's strictly a matter of perception and open to interpretation. Thank's Adele. Darlie was home alone with the kids every day. A short time later, he was fully awakened by the sound of Darin yelling. I also think she resented the fact that in Poland, she was a Registered Nurse, while in America, she was reduced to folding someone else's laundry for $50. JustinCase976 (author) on March 11, 2020: I would bet money that the Texas authorities already have someone under investigation. Just my opinion. Then cops found disturbing clues that ultimately put her on death row. Perhaps someone on Darlie's defense team did seek her out and decided her information was not particularly useful; or she may have slipped through the cracks in the shuffle of switching from the court-appointed attorneys. If the California lab, after comparing the many blood samples to the DNA profiles of the Routier family, determines that a foreign eligible profile has turned up, that sample is to be sent to Acadiana Criminalistics Laboratory in Iberia Parish, La., to determine if it matches the profile of anyone in the national DNA database. Okay. Is Darlie Routier innocent? She cut the screen with the bread knife, ran down the alleyway to plant the sock, and ran back to the house. I swear these worms have been eating at me for 3 plus years at this point. Yet, there were towels collected as evidence, and towels are also visible in the crime scene photos. The bloody sock in the alleyway had not even been discovered at this point. However, if there is one thing I would personally love to ask Darlene Potter, it would be this: How is it that, more than six years later, she can be absolutely sure that the date she saw these men was indeed June 6, 1996? That changed when I read Dateline Purgatory: Examining the Case That Sentenced Darlie Routier To Death by Kathy Cruz. That's actually in Kathy Cruz's book. Anywhere. Patterson. And too add it is not impossible what the psychic said they is evil in both male and females in this world and is possible that it could have been a female intruder ? This is the totality of Devon's blood on the back of the shirt. Specifications: Darlie Routier House. . Whether they moved it mindfully or subconsciously, I can't say, but I'm 100% confident that it was moved after police arrived and were inside the house. Shaking my head. The struggle wakes Devon, who isn't sure exactly what's going on, but he knows there's strangers in the house. Conclusion: The fingerprint left in wet blood belonged to one of the killers, not to Damon. Fibers believed to be from a sliced screen were discovered adhering to a bread knife from the kitchen. 5) Her changing stories--they really didn't change all that much, and there is no reason why everything she said couldn't possibly have happened. Darile will be home for Christmas this year, mark my words. Ah that makes a comment I saw on Facebook make sense now. The same reasoning applies to Darlie's interchanging usage of the pronouns "he" and "they." Let's say that Waddell is correct when he says that he saw a man come out of the front door and into the front yard when he first pulled up. ..people who are usually on drugs, violent and dont want any witnesses.. consider that. Devon and Damon were not Davis's children or anyone else's. She said she saw him, and that once they had more information on him, she was sure she'd be found innocent. LOL Fern! However, when it came time for Bevel to testify, his "expert" opinion was drastically different from what he had said to the defense previously. Attorney's for convicted killer Darlie Routier are having old evidence tested again in an effort to try and prove Routier is innocent. He had entered the Potter County Jail in July of 1996, after carjacking a man at knife-point. Darlie's bloody footprints were photographed underneath some of the glass, causing them to believe she broke the glass after the fact to make it look like there had been a struggle. Everyone seems to have a theory as to how it got there. Further, if Darlie was the one who broke the glass, she would have to have been actively bleeding for her footprints to be under the glass. Routier was convicted in 1996 of the stabbing death of her young son. What would happen next? If the two police officers did not see this laying in the middle of the kitchen, it wasn't there. What they heard loud and clear was the subtext of Davis's remarks: a rap song? and a bloodbath of two butchered little boys. According to the prosecution, Darlie cut her own throat while standing at the sink, and then attempted to clean it up. Although the medical examiner found this to be highly suspicious, in the end, his death was classified as a suicide. But Bill Gorsuch across the street worked nights, as I've already mentioned. Maybe one of them jumped on her while she was on the couch and they began fighting. Because they were more than likely caused by two different people, with two different knives. It could have been perfectly innocuous, and a police officer or paramedic may have inadvertently kicked the glass out of the way. I stepped over, to look into the garage, just to see if I could see anybody, and told her to apply some pressure to the first child's wounds. How did the glass get on top of those bloody footprints? Blood spatter analysis was inconsistent with Darlie's version of events. Okay. You either understand the effects of psychological trauma and the memory lapses that accompany it, or you don't. And she told me that she probably should not have done that, because she messed up the fingerprints on the knife. In my opinion, it is neither. There is so much information here! The Routiers had significant financial problems, including a substantial drop in income from the previous year, credit card debt, a late mortgage payment, and back taxes owed to the IRS. He did not have a conversation with her; she was already at the hospital when he got to the house. Nope, try again. The logs will verify that both Bryce and Vanessa have been to see Darlieand I highly doubt they are flying to Texas from New York just for their health. It can be reasonably assumed that his reply is affirmative, since she immediately becomes even more hysterical and screams, "Oh my God!". "; Darlie: "They killed our babies!") It is estimated that there are over 13 million offender profiles, more than 3 million arrestee profiles, and 840,000 forensic profiles in the system as of 2018. Court reporter Sandra Halsey pled the 5th when questioned about the errors in the trial transcripts and the missing audio tapes. The software usually suggests multiple possible matches and sorts them in order of most likely to least likely. Smith pointed out that many of the items being sent for analysis have never undergone DNA testing. And, is that when you looked at the clock? When someone comes up with a cover story, they've usually got their details in order before they start talking. Don't get me wrong: I'm not defending Darin, nor do I believe he's innocent as a newborn lamb. The prosecution took this diary entry and ran with it. It's not spatter, a splash, or even a drop. It wasn't to help Darlie; Rickels contacted the police on June 11th and Darlie was not arrested until the 18th. There are no photos of the Routier sink after Luminol was applied. Attorneys Cynthia Garza and Holly N. Dozier of the Dallas County Integrity Unit also gave their approval to the judges order. Bedrooms: 3. Did the Court get this one right? Routier suffered a near-fatal stab wound to her neck, which just missed the carotid artery. Okay. I'm not saying it's impossible for his kicking to have caused that bruising, but it is improbable. Yet I am supposed to believe that this so-called materialistic woman, who took pride in her home and her belongings and was by all accounts a fastidious housekeeper, willingly chose to spill blood all over that beautiful white carpet? Who decided to cancel? Question: What information does AFIS hold? Ah, I stand corrected - the IP was finally mentioned in msm in October 2021, after the motion linked upthread was granted. If that meant "Gangsta's Paradise" and silly string, so be it. When it came time for this family to lay the boys to rest, it was all about honoring them, their lives, and the things that made them happy. The haters always reference it as one of the best and most informative articles on this subject but I spotted at least a dozen inaccuracies (the article literally says Darlie's fingerprints were found on the knife handle and then later turns around and says she wore a sock on her hand to cover the prints, so which is it?). One sticking point has been the DNA evidence. Barbara was never their maid, she was an employee of their business. Now, at exactly 3:41 into the call, Waddell enters the home; you can actually hear the door as he enters. I submit to you that if there was a vacuum cleaner knocked over in the middle of the kitchen floor, they would have remembered seeing it at first glance. Police discovered that a window screen had been cut in the garage, a possible entry point for the intruder. Still, Karl had nothing to gain by telling this story. As the man made his escape, he dropped a large butcher knife onto the floor. Okay. This time, he looked out the window and saw Darin running from the front yard, past the fountain and to the sidewalk, yelling, "Someone just stabbed my wife and kids!". Out of all the things that non-supporters say, that takes the cake as the stupidest thing I've ever heard. And again, she did not "sleep through" the attack; her mind will not allow her to fully remember the trauma. Where did the information about the ceramic frog planter & the missing key come from? Why hasnt anyone spoken to her? Twelve days later, on June 18, 1996, Darlie was arrested. You will never get me to believe that Darlie threw a glass to simulate a struggle for the simple fact that I know someone rounded a corner and walked smack dab into the wine rack, shattering a glass while it was still in place in its holder.

One replied that he did not; the other replied he remembered seeing it, but wasn't sure if it was there when he first came in or if it was later when he did a walk through. That's funny, Laurie! Cooper cannot "make" the state of Texas do anything. So..1993 they buy the house and hes already doing an insurance scam with BJs daughter . ? She wasn't thinking about it at all; she was answering Waddell's questions about what had occurred. So there you have it; all of the reasons why I do not believe Darlie Lynn Routier is guilty of murdering her children. He did not become fully awake, nor did he look at the clock. Why would she deliberately torture herself by having to hear those soul-crushing words again?
