This is Tex McIver. Oh, man, let's see. You're not here to hear me in suspense.
The Binge Crimes: Finding Mom's Killer
Deadly Fortune | 8. Mommy Di
Who's sure we got a play in the playoffs? Another day in the army about two weeks ago, didn't we?

Deadly Fortune | 8. Mommy Di
I tell you, I don't know what happened. When I passed from the 70s into the 80s category for age, man, my friends started to die. Ooh, God. And I've been in this unfortunate situation eight years, and... I'd say every other month somebody pretty close dies. It's not designed to go much further than that, I guess.

I'll be 82 in two weeks. Two weeks.

And I've got some residential arrangements in Marietta.

Expected people would come in jeans and boots and hats and stuff. We had activities for the children, but, you know, calf roping and cowboy stuff.

Deadly Fortune | 8. Mommy Di
Yes, sir. I enjoy the conflict. I'm in a solitary cell and it gets a little lonely sometimes, so.

She intended to update her will, which we know she did not do, but she intended to do that. And there she was going to provide for both the boys.

Deadly Fortune | 8. Mommy Di
Yeah, I was going to take care of my son in a different way. Okay. Okay. I wanted her to be able to do what she wanted. I thought I'd go first. I was 11 years older than she was. And it just worked out that I lowered my objections. She intended to update her will. I candidly thought she had done so. Okay. And that's my answer.

Deadly Fortune | 8. Mommy Di
No, it was quite the contrary. She made quite a point about having no relatives. And she was almost like a waif. And she, again, never knew her father. She had serious conflict with her mother and her brother. And when both of them, the brother died first and the mother died a couple of years later. I virtually insisted to go to the funeral. I thought that was a respectful thing to do.

Deadly Fortune | 8. Mommy Di
Her mother's funeral? Yes, the mother's funeral. And the brother was mentally retarded. That's all I knew from her. But she wouldn't go. And she used to almost laugh about it in social situations that it was just her. And I'd come along and plucked her out of the herd. She didn't have any relatives at all. Candidly, I think she was afraid they would all come asking for money. Really?

And she didn't want that kind of conflict.
