      My guess is Christine's depression was due to overbearing and interfering in-laws and family who completely overwhelmed Christine to the point of psychological suffocation.

      Well, clinically depressed people have trouble adequately taking care of themselves, let alone caring for the multiple needs of children. I understand true depression to be a chemical imbalance in the brain that affects a person's day to day life. If Christine were medically stabilized, she should be okay as a mom. If not, this is not an ideal situation. Clinical depression is far different than just being stressed or feeling sad.

    I saw an Oxygen program about this. The oldest child was 5 years old when she "went to Disneyland", and 8 years old when she and her siblings were found in Nicaragua. (Their older half-sister lived with her father, Christine's first husband.) This child weighed THIRTY POUNDS LESS when she was found than she did when she left! She had to be treated for malnutrition, among other things.
    The sister's dad applied for custody of the children, but was denied, and they went into foster care. Because they still aren't all adults, their whereabouts cannot be revealed.

    If you think about it, without allowing in the cyberstalking evidence, it would be hard to get "all of them were in on it". The cyberstalking was a common thing they had.

I wanted all three of them to get life without parole. Too bad Lenore didn’t get to serve much time but I’m sure she’s in a very hot place now. I feel bad for Laura because she gets forgotten in this case because she’s not directly related to the custody and was only there to help her friend. RIP to Christine and Laura.

I had a student who's sister was stalked and bullied so much, she took her own life. These people were adults who were acting like mean teenagers toward David's ex wife. He kidnapped the children to prevent their mother from having custody. I really think Christine and David would have been able, with help, to work out a joint custody plan. David's mother certainly was an agitator and instigator. I am very glad the new law was used in this case.
