    I kinda was expecting a listener spike from all the publicity, but it doesn't look like anything happened on the chart.

    Am I the only one really sad about all this situation? Seeing someone you admire turns into a monster is freaking heart-breaking. Though the evidences shows he is guilty, we're not suppose do point fingers at him and be like "oh look, he claimed to be a christian all his life and now look at what he did" or "that's where you go when walking away form God! let this heretic burn in hell" and all of this crap. He is just a man who's got sick on his mind and now will pay for what he has done. Let's just hope he came as a better person at the end of this.

    @Scapegoat69, Tim's wife may have been a slut but he still had no right to try and take her life. This is coming from an AILD fan, if Tim did plot to murder his wife and goes down, it's his own fault, but innocent until proven guilty.
