  "I don't feel very lucky, I couldn't tie my laces for about two months, I think my kids were lucky..."  I'll never forget those words.

  Anyone who loses a child and says they can just make another one is clearly disturbed.

  Every time I've seen Diane downs in a prison interview, she's missing a vital quality that makes us human, which is a conscience.

  I lived in Eugene when this happened. Everyone thought she did it. She never missed a chance to get on TV and tell a different version of her story. She was her own worst enemy.

  No evidence of manipulative behavior? She was a mail carrier who targeted one of the people she delivered mail to, waited til she knew she was in the fertile window of her cycle, brought whiskey and weed to his home and got pregnant with her fourth child. This women is pure evil.....Also in an interview she says she needs more kids because of the love they give her, no mention of her loving them.

  The daughter who was born in prison went on to grow in to a beautiful young woman and lives a healthy, happy life with her loving adopted parents. She had got in touch with Diane, I  believe in her late teens. She said Diane wrote many letters to her that rambled on and on about bizarre things. She realized she made a huge mistake, does not recognize her as her bio mom and has never had contact with her ever since.

  Diane Downs confirmed that the tape that she was playing in her car just before and during the murders was: 'Hungry Like The Wolf' by Duran Duran. The prosecutor played a tape of this during the trial, and, to the horror of everyone there, Downs tapped her feet and bobbed her head in time to the music, blissfully unaware of the effect of this behaviour on the jury.

  What an utterly bizarre and tragic case. My heart goes out to her children.

  I'm repulsed by Diane's attempts to ingratiate herself to anyone who will listen to her. Maybe I'm annoyed that she thinks she's fooling anyone?

  I really recommend looking up interviews that Diane Downs did . Downright bizarre.

  I saw an interview with the doctor who took care of her surviving daughter said that she approached him asking him to end the life support. He never said, and he never thought that her daughter wouldn't recover. That shocked me. That was what first really made me think yes, she's guilty. What mother would do that?

  During her interviews you could see duping delight facial expressions.
