[edit]

This article may benefit from a POV tweak. I didn't know anything about the case before I started reading the newspaper articles, and I was able to find more information about the defense than the prosecution. --Strangerer (Talk) 05:11, 5 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Hi folks - I added the POV content to this article because it was so one-sided in favor of Holberg. I was a juror on this trial and sat through a full month of gruesome testimony. A defendent facing a capital murder charges can and should use everything in their defense at trial, but these statements should not be repeated out of context and without their rebuttal. Much of what I have written is taken from the Amarillo Globe-News articles from March 1998 and my jury notes from the case. I would like to cite them properly but haven't quite figured out how to use Wikipedia yet. Any help on annotation would be greatly appreciated. Hollyhaines 06:19, 3 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Im wondering how much attention you are still wanting Holly Ive seen you write the Amarillo paper, I am the best friend that testified which by the way your wrong about what I said... You Obviouly did not take very good notes on what I testified about. What happened to Mr. Towrey is wrong and just because you were a juror doesnt mean you know everything that happened or what you and the other jurors were not allowed to see.. You just need to get over it and and know that you being a juror does not make you an expert on Britatany or her case. Let it go, let someone who actually researches both sides write this.. get a life —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.252.53.234 (talk) 17:24, 8 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Notability?

[edit]

Is she really notable enough to have her own page? Darlie Routier is pretty much the only woman on Texas' death row notable enough to warrant a Wikipedia entry. Jyroberson (talk) 03:23, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

So when is her big day set for?

[edit]

A projected date of disposition should be in the article; and will anyone claim the corpse, or will it be buried in the cemetery of the condemned that the state of Texas set up? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.211.195.25 (talk) 20:09, 7 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Does she deserve the death penalty?

[edit]

I haven't read the trial transcript. I wonder if the victim was a client of hers'. Stated Wiki facts: 1) She was a drug addict (apparently due to using pain killers after an injury). 2) She had been brutally beaten and gang raped earlier in her life. 3) She showed an enormous amount of rage towards the victim but no indication is given whether she had any prior assaults. 4) No indication of premeditation and could therefore have been a crime of passion (in the heat of the moment). 99.109.228.24 (talk) 13:10, 8 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
