    My sister is a sleep walker and often walked outside in her nightgown and would walk into other people’s houses! Our neighbors would often walk her back to our house gently guiding her without waking her! However, on one occasion she had a cast iron frying pan and attacked a neighbor-Later we discovered he had beaten his wife and child fairly frequently and he bragged about it! Reportedly, it was his job to discipline them and his Bible said so! My sister was close friends with his son! Thank Goodness she did not hurt him but it was enough to scare him and his wife finally left him!

    I used to sleep walk, then drive, shop at a 24hr store etc. Fortunately someone realised I was ‘sleep walking’ and eventually I was referred to a sleep clinic.

    The sleepwalker case really hit home for me. I was found one night smoking at the window. I had no idea, my parents told me the following day. I was lucky they knew not to wake me up, bexause my aunt had it too. My greatest fear was not to harm them in my sleep... It has to do with a high level of stress in our cases 🙈 Horror living 100%...

Fear of rejection? I think we could speculate forever. You could be right though as I said, no one knows what goes through a person’s mind and in this case not even the person in question knew what had gone on in his mind!

    My dad had issues as a kid, he wandered outside and fell out a window which resulted in a nasty scar he has to this day. He doesn't have sleep issues no more but I do. I've acted aggressive in those moments, not being in control of what happened. I keep begging my mum to take me to a doctor in case something serious happens. What if instead of moving around objects or turning stuff on I grab a weapon? The thought always crosses my mind before I fall asleep.

I don’t sleep walk much atm as seem to do it more when I am stressed. I’ve sleep cooked and also smashed my iPad screens dropping my iPads while asleep also. I had to get rid of a glass cabinet I walked into numerous times and was woken up as things on it would fall over and the noise would wake me up. I’ve alarms so when I walk near my front door they will go off to wake my up.

    15:25 It's not "circumstantial". It's physical, forensic evidence. By contrast, circumstantial evidence would be something like a suspect having motive and opportunity without any verifiable alibi. Circumstantial evidence is the opposite of physical evidence. It has to do with the intangible circumstances. So I'll reiterate my initial point... the evidence in this case was the opposite of circumstantial, it was physical evidence or hard proof. And although a defense attorney would try to explain it away, there is no REASONABLE innocent explanation.

    In the first one, his wife made a HUGE mistake when she ran out of the house. The robbers car was running in the driveway...she should've jumped in it & used it to get help. That would leave them no way to escape except on foot. The 2nd one, I feel he got away with murder. What's to stop him from doing it again? After all, he was crafty enough to forge multiple checks with the wife's signature & to hide that he didn't really have a job.
