  4. You guys are saying thank you?!?! Tracey Defended her family from two people who invaded their home and intended to kill them. Dustin should not have been involved with Micheal Roberts, then this wouldnt have happened. Everyone in early knew the mental state that dustin was in. The truth has already been out about what happened. So the gossip queens in early need to just shut up

  5. The "gossip queens of Early" are not the ones who are charging her with murder, the Sheriff's Department is...obviously they have evidence, otherwise she wouldn't have been arrested. I can't wait for this trial to start to see what this new evidence is, or what they've discovered...it's about time the REAL truth comes out. Ps-why don't you go tell the Sac County Attorney, and all of the police to shut up.
