I haven’t forgot about the case or stopped looking for anything new to discuss concerning the situation.  At the present time I’m gonna sit back and watch what develop s for this happily married couple.   Anything short of major illness or death gives us hope.  Thanks again

Parole hearing and or some hybred form of compassionate/ health  related release is still possible at this point. I believe TeamJmac is waiting for the right time to ask again for parole.   It’s coming

Just him and his wife, so you state? JMac has maintained his marriage upon great challenges. Family man JMac is not the monster some erroneously believe

MacDonald has no family, he is a monster who butchered his family. I won’t suggest you read the evidence, because you won’t.

How has he maintained his marriage? What has he given? Do some research, there are some interesting books about women who marry incarcerated prisoners. They all have serious issues. Mrs McDonald has serious issues and lives a sad life. Read what others on here know about her.

 
Red,

Tell us, how is MacDonald a family man? How has MacDonald “maintained” his marriage? Facts please.

When someone is still legally married then it is safe to say he has maintained his marriage.  It hasn’t ended in divorce as half of marriages have.     This Forum refuses to acknowledge any positive things that JMac has done.     He hadn’t broke out of prison, hasn’t been accused of anything concerning fellow inmates, and has not been convicted of any crime in the last 42 years.    Yes this JMac is a solid citizen.  He hasn’t even got a speeding ticket.  Please correct me if I’m wrong.  Other than stealing a bagel from the connisary he’s clean

 

There is nothing positive about McDonald and he has done nothing positive since he was convicted. I have no idea of his behavior in prison, except for the bagel, and neither do you. Regardless, focus on why he is there; he brutally murdered his family. Colette, his pregnant wife viciously beaten, stabbed and killed. The final, fatal attack was probably as she was trying to protect Kristen. His daughter Kimberley was viciously beaten, stabbed, and killed. His 2 year old daughter Kristen was stabbed  33 times with a knife and 15 times with an icepick. Her internal organs were precisely targeted and Kristen’s murder was premeditated. Her little hands were injured as she tried to protect herself, from her father!

Prison is a controlled environment and he has few choices in what he can do. Tell us the positive things he has done the last forty years!

Once again, do some research about women who marry convicts in prison, especially notorious convicts with some fame. Check out the book "Women Who Love Men Who Kill," author Sheila Isenberg explores this phenomenon. The book contains countless interviews with women, psychiatrists, lawyers, social workers, prison guards in hopes of shedding light on why women are drawn to men behind bars. Isenberg states; “The real crux of the whole thing is that these are all women who are damaged. In their earlier lives they’ve been abused either by their parents, their fathers, their first husbands, their boyfriends, whatever. They’ve been sexually abused, psychologically, emotionally abused. These are women who've been hurt. And when you’re in a relationship with a man in prison. He’s in prison. He’s not going to hurt you. He can’t hurt you. So you’re always in a state of control because you’re the one who’s on the outside. You’re free. You go in and you visit him. You can decide whether to accept his collect phone calls.” Red, check out his wife’s behavior and her lifestyle. MacDonald is not maintaining his marriage, he is sitting in prison, writing an occasional letter.
