NOBODY, AND I MEAN NOBODY wants to wrap their baby in a blanket crocheted by Dianne Downs!
Yeah hey look I just got a blanket for my child made by Dianne Downes..burn it now
Amen! I never thought of it that way! She is the last person I would want to be gifted a blanket from!!
Omg can you imagine it.
Exactly right. I would wrap my baby in paper before I would use anything that evil thing made!
Quite ironic, Isn't it.
The scariest thing about Diane IMO, is that she doesn't deny the crime because she had a mental break or schizophrenia or anything like that. I feel that she won't admit her crimes because she knows how horrible they are and it pisses her off that people think she's a murderer. The thought of her being seen as a child killer is actually WORSE to her than actually trying to kill her children. It is terrifying to think there are people like this in the world.
In the previous part of the hearing she says, "People don't hate me because I'm a " baby killer," they hate me because I'm famous. "
Like, no Diane, they definitely hate you because you're a baby killer
She was “stressed,” she says now. Riiiight.
Yes
Totally agree
Agreed. Hence the fantastical stories.
I feel like she *knows* how horrifying what she did was, and it cracks through indirectly. But as someone commented in the previous segment of this hearing, there's something inside of her (something deeply dysfunctional, disturbed and biologically wired within her) that won't let her admit it. Ever. And that's what makes her dangerous. She will never, ever change.
The sociopath or psychopath does NOT feel for the victim because they have no conscience. You want Downs to admit to the horror of what happened. What was going on was that her children were in her way of an affair she wanted to have with a man. You can compare her with Susan Smith, period.
@Tim Garcia...Agreed!..perfect insight! Great comment Tim!
And I hope they never, ever let that psychopath out!
th-cam.com/video/skrc6qjtBd4/w-d-xo.html
Gets it from her parents. They had cognitive dissonance down pat as well.
Don't you think that by now Christi would have retracted her testimony if Downs was innocent
Yes but Diane doesn't want to trouble her.
Great point, Mary.
🎯🎯🎯
Diane is desperate to get communication with her kids so she can manipulate them. All of this screaming about my kids have the right to yell at me blah, blah, blah.
Christi did retract her testimony already though and said “she does not know who shot her.” Realistically, it would be nearly impossible for Christi to have seen what happened because she was sleep. The problem with this case has always been lack of DNA evidence. DNA evidence proves whether or not who shot those kids. The fingerprints testing showing multiple fingerprints on the car is not enough evidence to conclude anything so DNA is the best way to make a conclusion
After all this time she’s still unable/unwilling to admit to her wrongdoing. She’s exactly where she belongs.
She indirectly admitted! 7:47! She is just too far gone to realize what she is saying. She thinks that the more she talks, the smarter she sounds...
Wow that will probably be the closest she will ever come to accepting or admitting anything close to being wrong in this ,good ear 👂 mirr91
“Wrongdoing” 😂
Omg. All these years later she's still lying . Never ever ever ever let her out. I can't believe this ..this is crazy.
Why does Diane keep coming up for parole, she will NEVER admit her guilt??!!?? Stop wasting the Parole Board’s time.
By law, they have to grant her these parole hearings. If they deny them, she could either file a grievance or set a precedent for other convicts.....which doesn't help maintain the justice-system, especially for the innocents incarcerated.
At the time of her atrocious crimes, LWOP wasn't law yet.
The only correct thing that she said was if she were kept there for another 37 years it wouldn’t balance what her children lost.
What does remorse have to do with your children's "rights"? She's not even making sense. It's astonishing how all these years later, she's still trying to peddle those ridiculous stories.
Agree !!!
Diane was no way in hell a victim of circumstance . She has no remorse and makes no mention of genuinely loving her babies. Diane is cold hearted and I hope she rots in prison.
“Someday” her kids will look back and ask why? Her kids are grown now, they have already lived with her evil for over 39 YEARS, they are not little children whom have yet to develops and mature, they are grown adults who have lived this their WHOLE LIVES knowing! So someday is come and gone. Yes they know The Who and I’m sure they would love to know why? But their mother will never give them that because even today it’s still all about HER! Her voicing any concern for them is feined because that is what she has learned all these years in therapy is that she needed to ACT more concerned for them. She is where she belongs FOREVER!
Exactly. If her children truly knew she was innocent, they would've reached out to her to comfort her LONG ago.
@@veronicawood8295 yes exactly
I feel sad for them that they had to live and accept the fact that this is their mother. I remember as a kid I thought of my dad as an invincible fighter pilot hero. But as an adult I see he is a flawed human, can be domineering, but ultimately a good man.
Generally kids see their parents in a positive light, so for them it must’ve been tough as kids seeing how disturbed this woman was then having to come to terms with all of this and finally coming to the conclusion that this lady is just broken.
She NEVER did any therapy
Fortunately the surviving Downs children spent three years in a highly regarded foster home before they were adopted by Joanne and Fred Hugi, the latter being the prosecutor whose trial work incarcerated Diane Downs for the rest of her life to date. The Downs kids have become adults in a very private and loving environment.
Diane Downs will Never need to learn how to bank or get a driver's license!? 🤦🏽♂️
"If I get threatening letters they'll go straight to the FBI for fingerprint analysis and DNA and if I feel threatened, even if it's wrong or imaginary I'll get a restraining order and keep the police on speed dial". "Diane would you like to tell us what happened or move on"? "I think we'll move on". MY JAW DROPPED TO THE GROUND.
Ma’am, you did it, period.
When she said she wanted to atone my first thought was 'For what'? You said you didn't do it!
let's not forget this woman was convicted of aiming a gun close at range at her 3 children. and shooting them with intent to kill. if she can harm and kill her own children what will she do to strangers to get what she wants. please do not release her in the next parole hearing of 2026!!!!
Yes I think if she got out she’d kill Steve Downs , Fred Hugi and his wife ( the prosecutor and his wife who adopted her surviving children ) , and probably those children who of course now are adults . Especially Christy who testified against her .
The original Jodi Arias. There have been many I suppose prior but she stands out as the exact person as Arias. A forever victim of everyone. An intelligent thinker that thinks she outsmarts all, yet she is seen right though. Although Arias had a couple jurors on her side..she was able to manipulate them. Bc these are children there is no real chance of most people believing this. Arias used the man beating storyline. These people are sincerely psycho.
Jodi Arias is where she should be, but she did not shoot defenseless little children. This woman is a complete monster. A freak of nature
Agreed. Yet like Diane, she either doesn't realize how her behavior looks to others.....or does not care. Arias was filmed in the jailhouse waiting room, talking to herself saying "Geez you could have at least done your makeup, Jodi." & also doing HANDSTANDS, cartwheels, & singing "Ave Maria" in a chillingly lovely voice....while waiting for the detectives to return to continue her questioning!!
Diane is slippery!! If u listen to everything on her you are able to see her lies, how she twist words & projects her child's aphasia onto herself and other awful things
And now Suitcase Sarah Boone
She is still lying after all this time I don't think she should ever get paroled! I truly think she is a narcissist and believes her own lies!
Thank you so much for sharing Part 3
I have listened to the whole parole hearing.
she is a lunatic and a manipulator. nothing good can come out of diane downs being released from prison. only drama will follow and disrupt Christie and Danny's lives and the the lives of Christie's children. please do not let her out ever!!!
STRAIGHT FACTS! She still sounds so delusional, which only makes her even crazier! In a way, she got what she wanted. She doesn't have to worry about having kids. She has zero parental responsibility.
She was interviewed 18 times, not 56, liar!
Exactly! She had a stroke and was unconscious for days , maybe weeks . No way she was interviewed 56 times .
she knows how to bank. and how to go to the DMV. the fundamentals haven't changed .
Exactly. She went to prison in the 1980s, not the 1940s.
And what craziness is she talking about ? There are now refrigerators that tell you when you’re out of bread ???!!!! What ? Maybe I’ve been living under a rock but I’ve never heard of that !
"I need to stop trying to help people, is what I need to stop doing"... BWAAAAH
Thank you again for another great video!
I wish we could see her face when DA Miller was speaking opposing release.
such a narcissist. You, Ms. Downs, do not have the right to question your kids about how they felt about you shooting them and to this date still denying what happened. Everything she says is me me me and I want to confront and ask them. It's not about the kids to her, it's about "she has a right to ask the kids these questions." UUG I'm glad she has no contact and I'm glad they're grown now. I hope they realize their mom's issues are not their faults
She tries hard to deflect the questions asked. She goes on a tangent and talks, whines and cries about unrelated stories. Made up stories!
Wow, the District Attorney nailed it......😕
A sociopath to the bitter end. Still lying, still making excuses, still coming up with a bunch of fraud. Aphasia? Right. 🙄
Wow, idk what else to say! Just unbelievable!!!
I know! She’s never going to give it up 😂🙄
How in the world has she escaped the bash wrath of other prisoners is beyond me.
She's a master manipulator
Losing good time or commissary messing with her.
All these years and she still doesn't get it.
She goes to such extremes to state she is not responsible for shooting her three children. She has been in prison for 37 years and will not admit she shot her three children.
Diane Downs and Jodi Arias are cut from the same clothe. She believes she is a fabulous actress. But clearly,not good enough.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 yep !
A self described obese and arthritic 67 year old tree trimmer and blanket crocheter, electrician, caregiver, FFS🙄I can make bicycles, I could turn tricks, I could be a surrogate mom, got $10,000 for 1....INSANE, INSANE
36:10 Your refrigerator tells your car when it needs bread ?
😅
Because she will never admit her guilt and be sorry for what she did she will NEVER get out of prison, and that suits the people that put her there just fine. She's just where she belongs. She talks about being with three married men like she's proud of herself, she's too ignorant to realize she was being used. Blood smells like iron not copper Diane.
I honestly don't believe they would ever have released her even if she had admitted guilt in this case. Sometimes I think these parole hearings are just for show, and nothing more than going through the motions with the outcome decided in advance.
This is the first time she didn't laugh at inappropriate times while recounting that night ... She just started to cry .not out of regret or remorse but wanting out . She is still hot in the tail ... SMH.. God bless these children..
Just wondering where the first two parole hearing videos went
One of the biggest narcissists I have ever heard speak
As for your kids have rights, if they wanted to ask you anything they would! They want nothing to do with you! You killed their sister and tried to kill them too!
First degree murderers should not get parole anyway. Life for a life. Perhaps even all murder, but potentially there may be circumstances that may warrant parole after some time. I am from Canada and our penal system is very lax.. ppl are out in years after murder.
"I have aphasia, I can't think of words sometimes " AFTER spewing a million words/lies perfectly 😂😂😂😂
I was just thinking that. She has excellent articulation.
@@DrJ-hx7wvshe’s spent ages looking up things to find excuses as to why she behaves like she does. She’s looking for a medical/physical excuse, when really she would be better of looking at a book about mental health issues, a psychological reason why she’s nuts!
Yeah, I caught that, it's never come up before until 37 yrs later, because you know if it was true we would have heard story after story about it every time she opens her stupid mouth.
She is so delusional. Christie had aphasia from her stroke…hmmm Diane probably early dementia is confusing herself with what Christie had. I could go on and on how she has also taken words from another (Nick) and applied them as her own thoughts which just spill out in a torrent of words that suck the oxygen out of any room even if it’s zoom 😂
I have aphasia. It only hits when it feels like it. Mostly day to day I can't find some words, worse if I'm tired. Sometimes I say nonsense. The other day I said 'I bottled her up' instead of 'I filled up the bottle' sometimes it's absolutely unrelated nonsense or I can't think of what I'm trying to say so I just say a few close words. In general speech I sound fine and you probably won't notice unless I'm tired or you'll think I'm just losing track of my thoughts.
There is no helping this woman, she's deeply delusional
Totally agree
Yes not a woman a parasite
Mental illness. She seems far worse than when she was younger and committed the crime, but she has had 37 years to get this sick.
God is the ONLY person that can help her. Jesus Christ is the only way. For everyone on this planet Jesus Christ is the solution because we are ALL sinners in desperate need of a Savior. I pray that Diane will accept responsibility for her crimes.
@@marilynmanord1790she never will admit she did this, because she would have to also admit she has been lying for 37 years. She is preventing her own possibility of Parole, because she will never be truthful.
If she was released she would go after Christie for testifying against her. If she can hang on to a lie for 37 years then she’s certainly capable of hanging onto resentment for 37 years.
Do not ever let her out of prison!
They won't
She is so sick. No way to let her Go.
Haha. You said in one sentence what took me 100 ! ❤
No keep her in jail I agree
I don't really care if they let her out.
She's hardly a danger to the public. And her kids don't even remember what happened. They don't care. And have no interest in her.
Nobody cares except people that want revenge on her.
I say let her out. It would likely be worse for her out of prison. Dumb fck brother will have to look after her. 😆
She didn’t have children so she could love them. She had children so they could love her
Literally everyone who has children does so for selfish reasons. They are millions of children without homes. If people cared about kids more than themselves, that would not be the case.
The parole board deserved a stiff drink after listening to this woman's ramblings.
I want to get drunk and I don’t drink 😅
I’ve listed to all 3 parts. Almost half way into this one and I’m drained. I mean spent. Ready for a nap
“I need too stop helping people” took me out!! right at the start of a parol hearing is a mad move😵💫🥃
It is exhausting just listening to her, with all these so called stories. She never answers the questions they ask. Always has another story to tell.
@@glitter7777exactly! No one wonders why her relationships never last.
What she said about herself having aphasia was actually a condition Christie had after the shooting and her subsequent stroke. The “I might call a pencil a pen” was something taken directly from Small Sacrfices, Ann Rule’s book, describing something Christie was going through. She’s a liar, always was, always will be.
I noticed the same thing and thought that it was one of the creepiest things Diane said in that interview. Appropriating her daughter's condition, a condition *Diane caused herself in her daughter by shooting her* ,as exculpatory evidence is so sick.
Oh I didn’t catch that. She’s an idiot. She must have forgotten where she read that
😯 That's horrible! I didn't read the book, so that would've slipped right by me.
‘I need to stop tryin to help people, THATS what I need to do! ….Wow!” …Wow indeed.
I couldnt believe she said that!😂 Deluional!!😂
She's extremely arrogant, manipulative, and disingenuous but it's clear she will remain incarcerated because she's guilty and won't admit it let alone has any remorse.
Narcissists like her get worse with age not better. I hope she never gets out
Yes, as smart as she is if she’d only take responsibility and show remorse she’d probably have a chance at parole. The same goes for Betty Broadrick.
Personally, I prefer she doesn't care to mime remorse or guilt.
My nephew was brutally murdered at age 2 in the early 00s. His murderer attempted to transparently pantomime some semblance of remorse, until sentencing was over and the judge stamped 25 to life on his admittance slip, that is of course. The sickening display of chicanery made the trial all the more terrible for all concerned.
At least he'll never hurt another child with the same hand that swung that MagLight, as he no longer enjoys its use, or attachment to the rest of his arm that matter.
@@MomMom4Cubs I should have mentioned that I was thinking of genuine remorse so my apologies if I didn't make that clear. These days I focus primarily on survivors of crimes and trauma-based disorders but for a decade I also worked with convicted felons. It was my experience during that decade that parole boards focused far too much on 'good behaviour' in correctional facilities coupled with expressions of apparent remorse* and frequently ignored warnings by clinicians who had assessed them and found they posed a very high risk of recidivism. This led to many dangerous and predatory individuals being released often only having served less than half the original sentences and *many were very adept at manipulation hence feigned remorse which parole board members mistakenly believed was genuine. The results were often catastrophic with many of those released committing even more violent crimes after being released. The behaviour of your nephew's murderer is unfortunately all too familiar to me and I am relieved he remains incarcerated. I'm so very sorry for the loss of your beloved nephew and the pain caused by that brutal murderer. May your nephew's memory be a blessing.
10 min into the parole hearing everyone knew that she’s not going anywhere 😂
Everyone accept Diane. I'm sure every time she's denied parole she feels slighted, and like they're all just against her, and don't want her to be free because they have some personal vendetta against her. Diane may be intelligent in certain ways, but her level of delusion is astronomical.
This is about the 1000th time she’s said”If I have done this I would have done it in a better way!!” Jesus where does she think she’s going with that??
Sounds like Amber Heard and O.J. Simpson. They both said something similar.
If you're done with this watch the first 3 minutes of her on Oprah Winfrey it's incredible the story she tells right from 2 minutes on:
th-cam.com/video/SsMXTsU4eqE/w-d-xo.html
@@honeyowen3163 she’s literally smiling right when Oprah asks her to tell everyone what happened on the night of May 19th. Also she literally shows no emotions through the video. Wow. She’s such a psychopath!!!
I have heard other murderers use this excuse. What they don't understand is innocent people wouldn't be thinking like that.
@@kimthreadgold2755 Exactly. They know exactly what they did & because its a lie....they don't feel it sounds believable. So they fall back on 'I'd do it perfectly if I committed murder'.....instead of of what an innocent person would say "How could anyone think I'd do this?!! I am so p*ssed at all of this!" etc. etc.
I'm 48 and read small sacrifices as a teenager. This woman will never change.
Totally agree
Same
I even feel bad for the criminals that have to live with that mouth that never ceases to flap.
She can't chance, it's in her geens and brain function.
She's a narcissist. She will never take responsibility for what she did to her children. She's right where she belongs and should stay there for the rest of her life.
Her inability to show emotions/remorse for what happened seems to show leanings of another type of personality disorder as well.
She's a lunatic, hopeless, zero remorse,
@@Michelle-u5y No.
she is textbook narcissistic personality disorder. she cares too much about her image & about how she's perceived by others to have antisocial personality disorder.
Idk, i feel a narc would lie just to get out and cause more chaos
@@ellisdee420 She'd be a human breeding sow. I think she'd have just continued having random babies being that they're "so easily concieved".
She doesn’t know what remorse is! Can’t explain it.
She didn’t even know how to fake it. Which is so crazy because surely other woman shes locked up with who know the parole process have told her she needs to show remorse but she’s can’t even fake it
@@idontknowmuch3441 Exactly! She's such a narcissist, she'll never admit she did wrong. She's the star of her show. In some warped way, she is answering questions like they are so interested in her and love hearing her talk.
@@sweettina2 I agree, that is certainly how it seems to be! Diane loves the attention & loves to talk. She may well enjoy these things almost as much as the idea of being paroled. If she got paroled, no one would be very interested in her story.
She literally cannot fake it, because she doesn't know what the emotion even feels like. Her narcissism prevents her from even faking tears! Incredible how evil humans are.
If there is one thing we can say is that Diane does NOT suffer from not being able to find a word to convey what she needs to say….in fact, she uses too many words. I wonder if any of her cell mates have volunteered to go to solitary or even death row vice living side by side with her.
I have been listening for 3 hours, and I want to puncture my own eardrums...
It’s called word salad.. that how narcissist try and trick you up
I certainly like the District Attorney in her summary. Absolutely spot on.
Yes, the most intelligent voice in the arena. The board otherwise, outside of Mr Taylor, is not capable and improperly trained.
Yes. She discribed her cristalclear! She can Not live with the Community.
What mother stops on a dark deserted road with 3 children for a stranger . No way !!!! That’s all I need to know about this crazy lady .
Precisely. For argument's sake, I will agree that carjackings indeed happen. No one says they don't. What I do not agree with is the way she told it in her story. A real carjacker would've most likely shot HER, if anyone. And it would be a mortal wound too, not a flesh wound as in her forearm, since she was the adult, and both the one most physically capable of resisting him, and the one who could identify him later. As for the children, it is highly doubtful he'd have even been aware of their presence in the vehicle, because he'd be so dead set on getting a vehicle. Since it was night, and thus, dark, they'd have been hidden by the darkness, being below the windows. Once he became aware of their presence, he'd most likely have made them get out, since he wouldn't consider them a significant threat to him, and then driven off.
@@jpx8793 Why didn't the carjacker take the car?
@@gracejones2831Because he didn't exist!
Let's not forget that she took that road because "they liked sightseeing." Bitch it's night time and the kids were sleeping!!!
Exactly no woman with 3 sleeping children in a car is gonna stop at night in a deserted road for a random stranger man and get out of the car…. Its ridiculous, and why hell if he wanted the car would he kill the kids and not Diane first ? He doesnt wanna be driving a stolen car with 3 dead children in the back…. Her story made absolutely no sense
She couldn't explain what remorse is.
Her children have the right to never have to lay eyes on her again, to forget she ever existed. Ann Rule's "Small Sacrifices". I highly recommend. You will never forget what she did to her babies. She had 3 dying children in her car. Another car got stuck behind her on the narrow road. She was going under 10 miles an hour as she raced her wounded children to help. The story is shocking and very sad. You will be awed at the strength of her remaining children. And you will want to tear her apart.
You can tell who read the book and who didn’t. Fred Hugi broke Diane [down] piece by piece, lie by lie. Listen to her still lying, denying, flirting at will and forever being a smart ass.
I think you meant 'raced'
Diane Downs is so narcissistic. She doesn’t even know it. I read the book by Ms. Rule. It was so sad. Diane will always hurt any child that is near her. I hope she stays in jail. I pray for her children. 🙏 I just get sick with Diane. 🙄😳🤯🤮
amen
Death Penalty Case
I wanna hear the part where they deny her parole
I read on google it took less than 30 minutes😂
Me too!
Me too!!
Me too!
release when deceased
😂😂
When they asked if she considers herself a victim & she said "no" i was shocked! Is she forgetting she "couldnt tie her shoes for nearly 2 weeks!" This lady is too much.
right? i was shocked too
She’s just learned what is acceptable and not acceptable to say based on the reactions of others.
She read enough books to know what Narcissistic things NOT to say.
If you really think about it, and just work through her excuse logically, and compare it other Narcissists it’s says it all.
Lori Vallow- said Nothing
Tisha Stauch- Insanity
Aileen Wournos- Self Defense
Diane Downs- Stranger did it.
Notice a pattern?
She's learned a little bit about what they want to hear. But her psychopathy always takes over and she can't help but shoot herself in the foot
She’s so delusional she thinks she’s going to earn 200k knitting blankets
Don't forget she'll make extra from her tree surgeon contracts...'$2700 for 6 hours work'... and her hours on the job as an electrician...!!!
BAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Not sure what she thinks she'll earn from tree trimming as a 67 year old self-described 'obese' woman
Right? Also, it takes MONTHS to crochet a queen-size blanket, yet she can do it in one day. Wow.
@@veronicawood8295 At the age of 70, obese with a bad knee. Okay
@@OttawaAndy Exactly...I crochet, and I'm pleased with myself if I can finish a crop top for my nieces in one day, but a BLANKET?? Don't think so Diane...that's humanly impossible and just ludicrous. Gives you an example of what a delusional BS artist she truly is.
She’s obviously still crazy after all these years. They have to keep her in there, for the protection of everybody else in the community.
Great title for a Paul Simon. song.
She will never admit, even with overwhelming evidence, that she committed this crime. She’s blamed everyone else and regardless of whether it would set her free, she is just totally incapable of accepting guilt. There’s always another story. She’s a career victim.
Lord woman.....I can assure you the FBI is NOT out looking for your imaginary enemies.
It's just as likely as "your check's in the mail," or "I won't cum in your mouth."
They probably dread a letter from Princess Diane
She forever destroyed the song hungry like a wolf for me every time I hear that Song I get choked up
Omg me too 😢 I actually have to turn it off if it comes on the radio
I have panic attacks when i hear it and automatically think of her I HATE IT 😢
Thanks so much for posting all this info and especially the parole hearings! It's not easy to find in depth info on Diane Downs.
😊l😅😅😅😅😊
Interesting her “aphasia” never happens at any time during this interview.
Nor in any of her multiple news interviews after the crime.
Nice try Diane.
Nothing is EVER the narcissist's fault...just like Amber Heard. I think in their own sick minds, they actually convince themselves that their BS is actually true.
Diane Downs is projecting Christie's symptoms onto herself. The exact phrase "for example Christie will say pen instead of pencil" is in the book Small Sacrifices by Ann Rule. She is such a horrible person!
@@tootsiequilt exactly what I thought also. That bitch never misses a trick.
I crochet and there is no freaking way she can crochet a queen size blanket in one day. Delusional doesn't even begin to cover her problems!
I didn’t know crochet needles were allowed in prison since it could be used as a weapon
@@abigail7579 I am amazed when I read what is allowed in prisons. Inmates are allowed razors(!!!) to shave with (yet theoretically, they are collected afterwards....but how easily could one be forgotten by accident?!) & matches & lighters...all sorts of things.
Ha Ha!
Same thought, no way!
@@abigail7579 prisons allow crochet needles. They allow inmates to keep razors in their cells. It's only jail where they make you return them after use. Prison has more freedoms than jail.
Please post more archives! It is so nice to hear new stuff on her! I have been so tired of the same old documentaries on DD
She thinks that saying things like, "I want my children to contact me through the DA's Office ," makes her sound rational & compassionate, but in reality, she just sounds like a nut job
I understand that she has a right to have these parole board hearings, but I don’t understand why they are spending so much time on these as we ALL KNOW that she will NEVER be released! NO mother that shoots and kills her own children will EVER get paroled! She shouldn’t even waste her own time or get her hopes up!
Well, she's pretty convinced each time that she's going to be paroled. Part of her delusions
I think you're right in the sense that I believe that some of these parole hearings tend to be for show only, and that the outcome is decided in advance. It seems they're just going through the motions and have no intention of paroling her. I'm not really sure what the point of these parole hearings is, other than for show.
Na stuff it ..muck with that evil bitches head maybe try and get her to admit her crime
Paula Sims got paroled recently. She murdered two of her three children The daughters. However, she did admit it but still….the murders were horrific and she only admitted it so the death penalty was taken off the table. I remember when both those crimes happened as I am around the age of them and had small children. It was a bad time. RIP Ann Rule. I think I’ve read every book you ever wrote.
@@karend.SKYWARN WOW! That is crazy! Thanks for letting me know! Idk if I have heard of that case!
Due to her narcissism she is the poster child for not what to say at a parole hearing.
Clearly her incarceration has contributed to an ever decreasing grasp on reality 🙄.
She has a long answer for every question. Unbelievable = jury doesn't believe a word.
I Love that the D.A. was able to say what EVERYONE is thinking!!
Where not here ? You mean his closing remarks to the jury in ‘Small Sacrifices’. Farah was terrific in it. I read the book by Ann Rule - great except it was the unabridged version whatever that means. It was super short. PS. Oh good. Now there’s a DA to speak at this at 54:05

Who really believes that Diane has written five books? I imagine that her writing would be like her speaking, verbal vomit, ramblings and circular logic, story constantly changing.
One of Diane Downs' books is surprisingly on Thriftbooks. I didn't want to waste my money buying it, even though I knew none of the money would go to her. I called my local library to see if they had it, or if any other library in our county or state had it (I live in Indiana), and no one else did. It's called "Best Kept Secrets".
@@LighthouseLover1989 > that doesn't sound like a very fantasy or sci-fi title!
Omg it’s her laugh for me🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄😩😩😩😩.. after 37 yrs this woman is still crazy and self center 🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️😭😭
She is childish inspite of her amazing intelligence sarcasm
These have been fascinating to listen to, thank you for uploading 😊
This woman is really sick her brain is cooked there is no change please keep her locked away. Heish
She really thought she was getting paroled toward the end of this. Would love to have seen her learn that she wasn’t.
I wish we could have seen her reaction to not being paroled. She deserves to rot in prison
she has a explanation for everything doesn't she.?
Reminds me of amber heard.she would have excuses and explanations for everything and then waffle on about irrelevant things.
@@privatename4786 lol yes ! And Jodi Arias
She wrote sci fi books for each of her kids; dragons, trolls, etc., are the characters. There's a little something about this in itself that makes me uneasy.
I bet she's lying, as usual, she could barely describes the books & said Valkyrie, that has to do with Hitler!! Wth!😂
Circle talking...shes very off. And btw, society doesn't want what you have to "give back"
The fact that she's been in prison for decades at this point and she still can't bring herself to admit what she did, tells me she's never come to terms with her actions, she feels no remorse for her actions and she's right where she belongs - in prison.
That woman was born evil period 💔
Not once has she stated the killer is still out there.....😮 because she is the monster. Nobody has ever went after her mom or brother because she is the shooter. Making bikes for kids? She is insane to think she still thinks about being around kids or that her grown kids would want anything to do with her books. Diane Downs is the shooter of her kids.
In my opinion, Danny knew his mom did it when he got to the hospital. The kids were traumatized by this event and she is lying about what the kids said about her doing it. She also had a visit with Christie at a local park allowed by her ex-husband against the order of the court. She has no remorse for this and has never admitted that she did that. She was not out sightseeing on a dark road after dark. Her claims of putting them first are so bogus that I want to laugh in her face, except it's too serious for that. Christie is right, she did do it.
How the hell did her idiot ex-husband justify what he did? Did he ever speak on the case?
Actually, during the Oprah broadcast at which Ann Rule was present, Oprah says that Diane visited Christie in violation of the court order. Diane says, “Yah,” as though it’s nothing, and babbles from there about saying “mom things” to her surviving daughter.
Her “remorse” is sooooo fake! You are not fooling anyone Diane!
Wow! After many years, she still will not admit to shooting her children. I mean, her daughter who survived identified her as the shooter. Geeze.....I hope she repents of her sins before it's too late for her....and accept Jesus Christ as her Lord and Savior.
Great job at end for dda. She saw right through downs...called her out on everything i was thinking as well that was spoken about.
So, changing her story numerous times is now a form of aphasia?
People die Diane, you are not special in any way other than your crazy. I honestly think she would seek out, harrass, and terrify those kids. She might cook up another scheme to hurt them, just so she can say aha, i told you it wasnt me. NEVER LET HER OUT.
Keep in mind there are people in our government who want to abolish prisons, and get rid of police.
That’s because most of them belong in prison too .
But not that many.
Down's brother is the person who I shake my head at due to the fact that he believes in DD's innocence and has gone broke and has remained poor in pocket over trying to prove her innocence by hiring private Investigators and people in their field of expertise. I listened to one of his podcasts along with one of his experts. I hope he listens to the 3 part podcast objectively and comes to the realization that it is time for him to let go and find piece in his life.
What is his name and what podcast was he on?
He probably thinks she’s going to pay him back with her 200k salary when she gets out 😂😂😂😂
@@TariAkpodiete I can't remember the name, but he is on TH-cam.I tripped over it accidently. The expert was actually pretty good. He went into detail about the bullet angle, height's, blood splatter, blanket etc.
@@mrsv5736Let's not forget that it will be 200k a year for only part time work. Lmao
Amber Turd gave a better performance than her ! She needs some acting lessons from AH... 🎭🤥🤥🤥🤥 Lock her up & throw away the key 🔐
Along with M Markle😆
