Can someone post the link to the nanny's Gofundme campaign for her funeral costs?

From WUSA 9 Hines is a prosecuter.

I just wonder since she is not involved in this case nor is privy to inside information, how accurate her statement is. It's confusing to me because initially the news reports stated the money was being used for the opening of the Martial Arts Studio. Later reports stated that Mr. Savapoulos had to make multiple calls Thursday am to arrange for the money to be withdrawn. That is really what makes more sense, and would mean that there would not have been anything to tip anyone off about beforehand.
But who knows which story is true.

It's possible the Post is keeping low because their sources in the police dept asked them too...& promised exclusives if they do so

Because if the body was burned beyond recognition, they would have no way of knowing whether he was tortured, right? So the reports were inaccurate.
I just can't believe that a 10 year old boy was tortured. I just can't.

Me too, pp, me too.

I keep hoping the same.

Reminds me of the Wire for a lot pf reasons.

For one, I bet SS / AIW was pretty well integrated onto the Dc political machine to get the contracts they did. You don't just get two major contracts for two of the largest construction jobs in the history of the District without being a favored son. And what is always a major bargaining chip for Marion Barry, Muriel bowser, et al..? Jobs jobs jobs. esp jobs for ex-convicts. SS totally checked those boxes and got his contracts.

Sorry to get hollywoodish on this.

Why would you need large amounts of cash to win contracts?

I hope this is sarcasm.
You don't win contracts by asking nicely....or even by having the lowest bid....

I find disturbing that the step-mom and sister are still keeping their happy go lucky posts on fb after this tragedy. Not saying they are implicated, responsible or in any way related to the murder, but if a close relative had killed 4 people in such a horrible manner, I would -at a minimum- turn full privacy on for all my posts. It disgusts me to see them all smily and happy while another family is grieving because of what their brother/step son did. In bad taste, to say the least.

Is g it kind of sad that it's only raised $17k but the guy whose house was hit by the plane in Gaithersburg got hundreds of thousands?

Thank you! I want to help, and I'm glad to see that they've collected quite a bit. It's really heartbreaking to think about, and she looks so happy with her husband in that picture. Such a needless loss.

I bet lots of non law abiding people are horrified.

There is a large ex-con population in the District and unemployment is a major problem for them.

Per the article, the housekeeper knew about the delivery because she got the information from the assistant. He told her AFTER the delivery. The information he passed along may well have been the cover story that Mr. Savapoulos was forced to use in order to get the money that Thursday. To my mind , this does not confirm that the money drop was arranged ahead of time.

Fair enough.

I never thought anything in this thread would make me chuckle, but this concise (and true) observation did just that.
