Any thoughts I may have that he was driven to PLAN the murder-suicide ended when he used a HATCHET on his innocent little boys and poured ACCELERANT on them, apparently blowing them up wasn't enough to satisfy him he had to use CRUELTY.

AND I do not buy he was driven by the media - look at this OWN words where he says he is not a lesser person and he is resilient, which according to him was why the investigation into his wife's disappearance was difficult for law enforcement.

The "sham" house is (to me) a grasp - Josh did do what I believe a parent wanting his children back would do in order to get them back - he made a home for them - whether is had every little thing a home needed - that would be different for every person. Many people do not have tv's yet it is the "norm" to have at least one tv.

I do not have pictures on my children on the walls because I lot them in a fire - I do have current ones of my 10 year old but only the last two years and those are in frames sitting on a poorly built shelving unit. We lost EVERYTHING and my insurance at the time was actual cash value NOT replacement value so I could not replace everything, there was only 50,000 to cover everything in the home and garage and my husbands tools were half of that 50,000 to replace and we HAD to replace those - so I do not have all the nicer things I spent years collecting and it su@ked a lot because we had finally bought new furniture and *POOF* all gone. My fil took care of the insurance for interior belongings and lets just say he failed us but at least we got something. We rebuilt the home on a much smaller scale and tried to get things as needed to fill it up but that takes a LONG time. Anyway he may just not have had time, resources, or know how to make a home "homey" My husband wouldn't know how I don't think he would really even care if there were pictures on the walls or more then a few dishes in the cupboard....
