You're right... very interesting.

I find it hard to believe someone can hange themselves and bind their own hands and feet.

Here's a theory, the g/f accidently pushed the son down the stairs, then the mother of the boy finds out and exacts revenge by killing the g/f.  Or maybe it was the father.

Regardless, it's really quite sad.  That house will never be the same.

So maybe there was no discussion on this  but this is "True Crime"    This girl tore up her own bedroom bound herself with duct tape hands & feet and then threw herself naked out the window.. so she would be found that way   ......  hanging naked from a mansion..... oh, please but CA investigators have called it suicide...

[Antilles]

Actually, she was found hanging from a balcony but I'm not sure if that means in side or outside the house.

Interesting case. I think it's apparent the girl friend had something to do with the death of the 6 year old but did she jump, or was she pushed? Because I don't know what the crime scene looks like I don't have a clear idea but it's possible that she committed suicide. Highly unlikely maybe, but it could be possible.

I essentially agree with Antilles...I'd be somewhat suspicious about the 6 year old's manner of death, but I think it appears that the girlfriend's death was suicide.

[Duncansmom]

Sorry that I did not include some links - I'm new and I really thought this had been discussed and there would be a thread

http://coronado.patc...s-fatal-friendshttp://

This is one of the better ones I have found.  The father was some kind of beauty care chemist who had made a fortune.  His alibi for both his son's death and Rebecca's seems to be sound.  I saw something on TV about it and they feel pretty certain the little boy was sliding down the banister maybe even using a skateboard to gain speed.  His skateboard was found near him and the correct distance from the banister.

Rebecca's sister was with her the day before she was found hanging and saw no evidence of severe depressiion.  Her family is trying to exhume her body for more tests.

She was outside the house hanging from the balcony not inside.  Found by the owner's brother who was staying in the guest house.

[Antilles]

Well I was wrong about her being found hanging. Thanks for the link D'smom. I had actually never heard of this before and it is interesting particularly since Ann Rule is writing about it.



Zahau, 32, died two days after Max, her boyfriend's 6-year-old son, suffered what ultimately would be a fatal head injury during a fall from a staircase at the residence. Detectives found her to the rear of the main house, on the lawn, bound by the neck, hands and feet with a shirt raised and looped about her neck.

She wasn't found hanging, she was found on the lawn. That does sound a lot less like suicide, doesn't it but still, I think the child's death had something to do with this. Someone blamed her? The child's father apparently had an airtight alibi but I wonder about the child's mother.

[Leave Britney alone!]

I read this story on the HuffPost when it first came out. Very tragic.

The boyfriend's brother said he found her hanging, and that he cut her down.

[Duncansmom]

Body hanging outside definitely - I believe there was a bit of a question as to how far out from the house her body fell when cut down.

It seems a little strange the father was absent so often.  His son had died just 2 days prior to this and he's gone again all night?

The mother never did really present an alibi that I heard and she did have a domestic violence offense in the past.

Rebecca's family appeared on Dr. Phil trying to advocate exhuming Rebecca's body but I missed that show.
