Is the elder visit the night before substantiated? I don't recall that being mentioned in the 20/20 piece. If that's true, that would have added even more motive and made for an even weightier circumstantial case. Was the elder who visited them called to the stand to testify?

did anybody see 20/20 investigation discovery earlier this evening?

it was all about kelly jarka who is serving a life sentence for the murder of his wife.

took place in murietta, california.

I saw that piece last week. To be honest, I was somewhat torn about his guilt/innocense. He told the interviewer, "how stupid would I have be to take out an insurance policy 3 weeks before I planned to kill my wife?" as if to say, "I'm smarter than that". Plus, he made the point about having a 6 month old in the house, no way could he do such a thing. But, who else would have motive and commit such an empassioned killing. And, his demeanor was definitely suspect plus all those net lookups so I am leaning toward the jury got it right on this one.

The feeling of having real conviction in something larger than myself. A conviction that was so strong that giving up cigarettes and soap opera's was a piece of cake.

Also, the honeymoon/love bombing phase was fun while it lasted

I heard this same story circulating among JW's decades ago when I was still in. This is a repeat of the same story, maybe just a different location this time.

"We missed you SO much at the meeting...."

Fortunately, I haven't seen many witnesses since leaving 10 years ago. But I have never thought they would bother to try that LIE on me because they knew I knew that they were never that happy to see me to begin with. Even when I was super active, many were snooty and hateful to me and my girls because we were nobodies. It would be laughable for them to even pretend to say they missed us and I think even they know it.
