Craig was on disability and I wonder what was his particular disability? Did he have a prescription narcotic addiction? Robyn's next husband was a drug abuser. Drug addicts will do ANYTHING to maintain thier addiction.

Robyn is a real piece of work. Her selfrighteous smugness is infuriating. She so matter-of-factly admits to the destruction of an entire family (including her children) without any remorse. It's as if she is saying I wanted to do it, so I did, and that's that.She seems proud of her notoriety.

The mother and brother claim Craig's character is such that it would be impossible for him to commit this crime. Craig swore on his mother's life to the investigators. I found this statement of his so repugnant and telling. He lied about his affair with Robyn, blatantly stating they did not have a sexual relationship. The entire family was all too aware of the ongoing affair between Robyn and Craig. It was not as if they did anything to hide it. They were spending nights and weekends together. If anyone knows anything about a small, southern town you know EVERYONE knew the husband was being cuckholded by his brother. Robyn acts almost proud of it, so Craig is an inveterate liar. His audacity to swear on his mother's life, and so glibly lie while doing so, is a testament to his lack of character. He is a low man with the character of a con man. He has a criminal nature and that is what Robyn found so attractive. Like a moth to a flame.I have shot a shotgun and I know that bruise. That tells it all.

all evidence point to him pulling the trigger, however i think that Robin planned this from the start and slept with him in the first place to get him to kill his brother so she can get the money.

It must of been hard for Susan sitting across this women,she is more guilty than the actual shooter ,did anyone check her arms? did she have a alibi.I think she planned the whole thing,and even helped him. she is so evil,she should be in prison too. as for Craig maybe Robin framed him,I don't know but my instinct tells me he didn't plan this on his own,what were you thinking sleeping with your brothers wife,come on..
Robin you are really nasty I didn't see a tiny bit of sympathy,empathy or love towards your husbands family when you talked about them,I didn't see any emotion in you,just a selfish .....I am glad Mrs Linda survived to look after the kids,It must be really hard for you,and hope god gives you hope and strength.

I remember this story, at the time I lived in Savannah, Georgia. Everyone was wondering who would try to take out an entire family. I never knew all the details but some years later I was informed that one of the sons did it. I never knew why he did it. What a wicked woman?
