> why didn't the parents call 911 if their daughter was seriously injured? they literally had a psychotic breakdown. when pd got on the scene they were just acting like fucking morons. they interview burke privately and he explains that she died when they were playing but that his mom told him that after that happened "men took her" > her body was found in the house's basement about seven hours after she had been reported missing. again this is part of the parent's psychosis. they thought no one would simply believe "she died while playing" and thus they needed a "plan to exonerate themselves".  really from the guy who told me the story's perspective: it's just fucked up and no one really did anything *wrong* per se. the parents should have come clean about what happened with burke but they seemed basically to have gone somewhat insane as a result.
