- Well this seems to be straight out of a good book by Koontz or King. One I wouldn''t mind reading. But the end seems to have gone astray. There is no doubt in my mind she planned "what she thought to be the perfect murder" But even a smart mind would have problems pulling this off. But a dumb liar, with what seems to be absolutely no sense what-so-ever(just watch the video, it speaks for it''s self). Either way I believe that the co-cheater should be looked at just a little bit more. Because this is what I think happened.
She injected him, probably when he was sleeping. Then goes to work preparing her "perfect" alibi, thinking that no one would ever notice anything else if she just went to work like usual. Then the boyfriend goes to the house, long enough after she has gone to work to make sure she is covered. Now as for her brief absence at work, this may be a stretch but what if she left to meet up with her boyfriend to make sure everything went as planned. Making sure not to leave a telephone trace of her calling him around the time of the fire.
I should become a writer.
No but seriously, the only people I feel sorry for are those children. They probably hear it all the time "your mom''s that lady that killed her husband, huh?"

Sounds like the ex did it.
Oh, but she had a baby. Gimme a break!
It is probably his kid.
It took the professionals 5 times to get the fire tweeked right and it took a chearleader only once?
What a bunch of garbage.
This is one reason I don''t trust the "law".
They twist the law till it fits.- Reply to this comment
- I simply hope that the people involved were thoroughly interogated. I wonder if his ex-wife Stepanie''s alibi really is worth believing. The story strongly showed that Stephanie hates Shelly.

- After reading several of the comments made, I felt that I had to respond. First, Michelle was never considered a suspect based on her "lack of reaction" to the events. If you had paid attention to what the dectective had said, he said that he found her reactions interesting. It wasn''t until later that Shelly was made the prime suspect. Again, as shown on the show, she had made herself suspect by her more than numerous lies. I felt the defense team was making despairate moves by accusing Stephanie and the victim himself for this tragdey.
And to the person who commented that the drug had to be given IV. You must not be a nurse, or you would know that Roc can be given several different routes. It is given IV in the hospital as the preferred administration route.
I thank 48 hours for showing a accurate portrayal of the events. Unfortunately, there are time limits and alot of evidence against Shelley wasn''t shown. - Reply to this comment
- Why do I get the feeling that a pretty cheerleader who behaved more like a harlot princess from England is being framed by someone filled with bitterness or psychotic jealousy? No debt families can be rare in these debt ridden times. Perhaps our flirty cheerleader was discriminated against because of the perceived ease of her perky cheerleader''s life.

- I congratulate the jury for not being taken in by the "cheerleader" mentality she used to hook her husbands and lovers. Not to slam cheerleaders, but most grow up and leave the Glory Days of the 18 yr old and get on with life. Unfortunately for Shelly the jury was not made of her "peers" but made of reasonable, intelligent, thoughtful people. What a selfish, spoiled child who went thru life thinking she could prance and kick and take whatever/whomever she wanted. And she''s dumb enough to think she can work her wiles in prison with the guards and other inmates. Well...I''m sure there''s a big, strong "someone" there looking for a perky, back-flippin'' cheerleading wife...GO SHELLY!!!!!

- The day will come when Michelle''s trial will be found to have been unfair. She''ll either be granted a new trial then or will be released. The fact that it took 5 tries for the prosecutor''s experts to arrange things so that the fire would smoulder for 2 hours and 12 minutes tells me that an amateur like Michelle wouldn''t have been able to do that without a lot more than 17 minutes'' preparation.

- I can not tell if this person is guilty of a horrendous crime or the accident victim of a suicide or the victim of an accidental suicide. I have a few questions about this one.

- I wish the article commented more about what that Teet guy was doing around 10am. Could he have set the fire once Michael was incapacitated? Either way, it is a sad, sad story and so very tragic for all those children who have to live with this reality!

- mjjclark1: The state''s theory was that Michelle killed her husband before leaving for work; when she left work for 17 minutes, it was to start the fire. I live around the corner from where the Michael''s house stood (it has been razed), and I know with certainty that 17 minutes is more than enough time to leave the Ruby Memorial parking lot, drive to this neighborhood, go inside your home for several minutes, and return to the Ruby memorial parking lot. As for how the rocuronium was administered, I am fairly certain that IM administration can be effiacious.
