I am trying to figure out why this article is here and why I feel compelled to post lol...  its all a bit morbid and voyeuristic...  The story itself is not magnificent in the magnitude of the misdeeds - (yet certainly deplorable and worthy of pubic scorn as well as disbarment if not imprisonment.)   

Its also hard to imagine that any reasonable person would think this type of essay would yield sympathy for themselves. 

Finally i am struck by the photo of the family and of Mr. Beaver...seemingly almost defiant ... I think my own family would privately cower in shame and never pose for a photo, or a story.

I cannot help but conclude the extent of narcissism here outweighs common sense, and certainly morality and ethics.    Sad for all concerned really.
