Slashed on the neck, Darlie Routier swore that an intruder invaded her home in an upscale community outside of Dallas on June 6, 1996, killed her two young sons, attacked her, then fled through the garage while her husband and infant son slept upstairs. But overwhelming evidence soon convinced police that it was Darlie who had committed the heinous crime. It would take a Texas jury just 10 hours to convict the suburban housewife of killing her sons, and only four more hours to deliver a death penalty sentence. Photo insert.

Good Overview of the Case
By Kristena Henderson
I really liked this book. Despite the "poor Darlie" supporters who bashed this book, I picked it up and thought it presented a good overview of the case and some real insight into Darlie's character or lack thereof. She very vividly described the behavior of the Routier/Kee family during the trial. Having seen it on my local news during the trial, Ms. Springer didn't exaggerate a thing. No one in Texas had ever seen a group behave like that at trial. The tacky tatoo which Darin Routier proudly displayed ranked up there with the Silly String video. The family suddenly got religion and beat it to death by constantly singing hymns outside the courtroom. Everyone wanted to be a star. In addition, Ms. Springer obviously had some good sources among neighbors and people who knew the Routiers in Rowlett. I love the Darlie supporters who criticize the editing and minimal typos in this book but highly tout the self-published pro-Darlie Media Tried, Justice Denied which has to include some of the worst English ever published. This book is well worth reading and I highly recommend it.

What Happened to Darlie?
By TawnTawn
This book is rather short and not too complex, but Ms. Springer does get the main points across. What convinced me that Darlie definitely did it, no question, was:
The luminol test after the murders - small bloody handprint and small butt print found on the couch, Darlie's footprints found in kitchen walking back and forth and to kitchen sink. Blood in and around kitchen sink. This was blood that was not visible to the eye. This blood had been wiped up and did not show without the Luminol being sprayed and the lights turned off. Luminol picks up a protein in blood and enables the markings to show up in the dark. What this means is Darlie was busy wiping up blood stains before she called for Darin. If you were attacked by an intruder and your sons lay dying, would you be busy wiping blood off your couch, IF YOU WERE INNOCENT? No, you wouldn't.
Also, the fact that the "intruder" broke in the house by slashing the garage window screen from the INSIDE (the window sill of which the dust had NOT been disturbed), with a knife that was in a wooden block in the KITCHEN. And why would an intruder slash it all since it could easily be popped off from the outside?
And the security lights were off when the police got there. The lights were found to stay on for 18 minutes.
To some of the nitpickers, it makes no difference to the story which lawyer made the opening statement, or whether Darlie had an abortion - permission only given by her husband after she agreed to have breast implants. Permission is not required by husbands in Texas, but anyone can see that she has had implants. For Darin to be bragging about the size of Darlie's breasts to the police when his sons were stabbed to death, shows where his priorities lay.
Why did Darin go back to his and Darlie's old house to check the screens? What was his curiosity about them?
Past history on Darlie included sexual abuse by a step-father, and narcissistic, histrionic behavior - she could not stand it when she lost the spotlight to Daryl at his graduation party, so she left, then came back hysterical, claiming to have been attacked, in order to get some attention for herself.
A few days after her sons were brutally murdered, during an interview at the police station, Darlie pulled down her shorts and pulled aside her panties to show the officer a tattoo on her crotch.
What mother whose children were murdered, when accused of the murder by police, would calmly say, after every accusation: "If I did it, I don't remember." That's pretty much saying that she did it. But after she knew she was being arrested, she said, "I did not hurt my babies."
Darlie needed help, but never got it. She didn't get what she needed from her dysfunctional family, who also need help. Did they really think that screaming "Liars!" at the prosecutors outside the courthouse would do some good? Or were they just venting their feelings? They should have done everything they could to make Darlie look good; instead, they made things worse in public opinion.
What happened in Darlie's young life to make her have such rage? I have a feeling her childhood was not peachy. There was admitted neglect by her mother, she had to take care of her younger sisters, and the alleged sexual abuse by a stepfather (who after marrying Mama Darlie moved his new family away to avoid paying child support on his three children from his previous marriage).
Were the two diet drugs having homicidal side-effects? What would killing the boys do for her? I can't believe that she wanted rid of them because of financial concerns. She might have been angry with them earlier (they had splashed out half the water in the hot tub), but why kill them when they are sleeping? Was she angry at Darin and wanted to get back at him by destroying what he loved most? Did she mean to kill herself and chicken out, or just not cut deeply enough?
The only way Darlie will ever be free in her own mind is to admit her guilt. She probably never will, because she is afraid of losing the support of her family members. Darin has failed a polygraph, so there is probably more to this story.
The author goofs a few times: "perspective" witnesses, Rockwell, Texas instead of Rockwall, Maul for Mauk and repeats herself sometimes in the same paragraph. Overall she gets the story across very well.

Fascinating compared to Don Davis' book
By Winter Maiden
This book is fascinating when read in tandem with Don Davis' book on the same subject. Although both books are poorly written and edited, they provide an excellent example of how perception influences representation and how representation in turn influences perception (as suggested by the reviews of these books). Springer's problems arise from her book's many errors, most of which seem to derive from her not having had access to the family. She is far too inclined to skewer the Routiers with words like "smug" and "boasting." Her attempts to be literary far out-strip her skill (not to mention her spellchecker). Don Davis, on the other hand, writes a dull, just-the-facts-ma'am sort of book. The great flaw of his book is that --while he appears to be factually accurate -- he is highly selective in the facts he chooses to share, conveniently omitting those most damaging to Routier. He seems afraid to show all the evidence, which clearly supports Darlie's guilt, although I would not have considered it a death-penalty crime. It's always the same in these cases: some convenient stranger has done the crime for no discernible reason, the killer's stories change from day to day, and those on the killer's side are clueless about forensics and take refuge in an imaginary system in which every cop and every prosecutor is evil and corrupt, and also incompetent and stupid. Does this sound familiar? No, I don't mean O.J. I mean the case of Diane Downs, the Oregon mother convicted of shooting her three children. She was the subject of Ann Rule's _Small Sacrifices_, a much better book than Springer's or Davis', on a much more complex and moving case. (So moving, in fact, that I have wondered ever since what has become of brave little Christie Downs, and the prosecutor who first convicted the mother and then adopted the child.) Strangely, although both the Routier authors discuss mothers who kill their children, neither mentions Downs or the Rule book -- perhaps because both occasionally appear to be re-writing Rule. Strangely, the one thing I find to support the idea of Darlie Routier's innocence is that the children were stabbed, a far more personal and violent method than shooting or drowning, and an unlikely way for even the most heartless mother to dispose of her children. But perhaps her plan required more time than a noisy shooting could provide. At any rate, these books are worth reading not for what they reveal of the sad values of the Routiers and their tragedy, or any supposed miscarriage of justice, but because they offer the clearest possible example of the Rashomon principle that everyone who experiences an event tells a different story. Perhaps that is why truth seems to hover around physical evidence and around people who can keep their stories straight. (original review 1999)
