    Just a 10 minute Q and A session with them. Did they really think they could get away with this?

    They knew the woman..
    Were care taking..
    They left bloody clothes at their home..
    They pawned her coins...

    Is that what Vegas does to you? I showed the pic to my dog and asked what about the older lady in the photo, I said what does she look like? He said "RUFF" I have to agree. Good Boy, My dog is smart!

    The only thing that I do not believe from this article is that the mother is 46 and the daughter is 27. No way. No freaking way.
