That's what my OH and I were saying last night. She could be just covering up the fact that she murdered him BUT there's the small chance that it could have been a tragic accident....maybe caused by one of the other children or maybe she is suffering PND and in a clouded moment did something awful Either way, by not reporting it and making up the whole story, wasting police time and resources, she has made the outcome for herself much, much worse.
Yes and it seems that he may have been 'missing' for weeks. As I understand it he hasn't been seen since before Christmas.
Heartbreaking .........I really find it hard to read/hear about stuff involving small children but can't help myself.
Sounds a bit like the Casey Anthony case (re the time scale and all that).
