Darlie Lynn Routier (born January 4, 1970) is an American woman from Rowlett, Texas, who was convicted of murdering her five-year-old son, Damon. Both of her sons, 5-year-old Damon and 6-year-old Devon, were killed in the attack, but she was only tried for the murder of Damon. == Murder == On June 6, 1996, at 2:31 am, 911 dispatchers in Rowlett received a call from 5801 Eagle Dr, the home of Darlie Routier. Routier told the operator that her home had been broken into and that an intruder had stabbed two of her sons, Damon (age 5) and Devon (age 6), and attacked her. The youngest of her three boys, Drake (age 7 months), was asleep upstairs with his father and was unharmed. Routier received several stab wounds, deep, widespread bruising on her arms and other parts of her body, and a prominent slash to her throat. Newscasts showed Darlie Routier and other family members holding a birthday party at the children's grave to posthumously celebrate Devon's 7th birthday, just eight days after the murders. Darlie was shown smiling and laughing as she sprayed Silly String on the graves in celebration of Devon's birthday, singing "Happy Birthday". Family members point out that the newscasts did not show an earlier portion of the video which depicted a solemn ceremony honoring the children.〔 Four days later, Darlie Routier was charged with capital murder. Routier later commented on the Silly String video, saying, "He wanted to be seven. I did the only thing I knew to do to honor him and give him all his wishes because he wasn't here anymore. But how do you know what you're going to do when you lose two children? How do you know how you're going to act? 〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/story?id=125984 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Darlie Routier」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
