Episode 1.6 "Love Conquers Al"

[r2k]

This episode was twisted, right? And to think this was based on real events. The real case is pretty much identical to the episode. The real case happened in 1995 and took a while to be solved.

yeah i think they made a tv movie out of the story as well

[Lena]

They did. I think it's called the Texas Cadet Murders or something. It plays on Lifetime every once in a while. The case is almost identical to this episode. In fact I remember telling my boyfriend how similiar it was to the Zamora case. I loved this episode.

they just screned an episode of Snaped abouy diane Zamora in it on the Crime Chanel

[lillyrush1977]

They just profiled this case on E! as a part of the 15 Most Notorious Women

[longislanditalian2]

Diane Zamora was just profiled on " Snapped", it's amazing just how much this case was represented in this episode

Yes, they even got the fact right that someone else had been arrested prior to the couple that was actually convicted. The poor kid spent about a month in jail before being released..(but not before being convicted in the press) and went through hell until Diane & David were arrested.

[rutherienne]

Now Diane is blaming everything on David, claiming he abused her and controlled her, and generally had her so completely under his thumb that she'd do anything he said.

[ninja1088]

Of course she is. It's not uncommon with one or more criminals for them to try and throw their partner under the bus. You see it often in the man-woman teams. She was just too helpless and was beaten so she had to help her bf/husband rape,murder and kidnap people.
Diane isn't the first one to use this excuse... and she won't be the last
