I think so too, Pat.
Investigators haven't even scratched the surface yet (which is exactly what Detective Stoddard said at the probable cause hearing) and they've already uncovered so much incriminating circumstantial evidence.
I'm interested in the wife, Leanna, and think that she may have unintentionally revealed a lot about herself and the couple at Cooper's funeral on June 28th. Her focus on defending and pumping her ultra creepy bowl-headed husband, rather than her son, bugged me from the get.
Since then, we've learned that Justin Ross Harris visited a site for "Child-Free Living" enthusiasts and advocates, more than once. I tried to visit the site cited by Det. Stoddard at Thursday's hearing, but Reddit has since made it private: http://www.reddit.com/r/childfree
So, I read a bit at http://www.thechildfreelife.com/forum/index.php to learn more about the child-free living community. Weirdos, IMO. Not having kids (for whatever reasons) isn't weird to me. BUT, not having kids and then adopting a philosophy and lifestyle focused on why people who do have kids are selfish, and how irritating it is living in a kid-centric world, is weird to me.
Anyway, now I suspect that Leanna's funeral statements and Ross' childfree internet visits may well be related -- were they both prepared to free themselves of the baby and had she convinced her vacant-eyed gum-chomping self that she was freeing Cooper in the process?
At the funeral, Leanna said that she would not wish to bring Cooper back into this "broken world" if she could. She went on to list the things she was happy her son won't have to endure: his first heartbreak, junior high and high school [the funeral audience laughed as she said she didn't like either one of them], who to sit with at lunch in those awkward middle school years, having to bury his loved ones... In other words, IMO, she's glad he doesn't get/have to live.
