Thank You
The Media

I would like to thank the following people and organizations for the support and compassion they have shown us during this time:

  • Foothills Bible Church for taking care of the funeral arrangements.
  • Our Bible Study for all work they have done for us and support they have shown us. Especially for continuing to be concerned about us while life goes on for everyone else.
  • MOPS (Mother's of Preschoolers) for all of meals they provided for us. I really appreciated it especially while Bethe was hospitalized and Moriah was a newborn.
  • Drinkwine Family Mortuary for their services and work with Foothills Bible Church.
  • Evergreen Cemetary for providing the burial plot for the children.
  • Everyone that contributed to the "Fund" that helped pay Bethe's legal expenses. A total of about $35,000 was received and the total of about $57,000 was expended on Bethe's defense.
  • Front Range Bank for taking care of the Fund.
  • The Compassionate Friends (Jefferson County Chapter) for supporting and encouraging me and helping me to accept the loss of my children.
  • Doug Holden for many reasons but mostly for being a friend and an elder.

    I'm sorry that I did not mention everyone (I probably inadvertently forgot a lot of people that I should have listed) but I assure you that I did appreciate everything that you have done for us.

    Wade's Trial Statement

    I would like to take this opportunity to thank the JCSD for the professional and thorough manner in which they ran this investigation.

    I would like to thank the DA?s office for recognizing that my wife is suffering from a mental illness and for letting her remain in the hospital for treatment while being evaluated and for the professional and compassionate manner that they have shown me and my family.

    I would like to thank Doug Holden for recognizing the seriousness of this case and the legal process that would take place, for advising and representing Bethe, for interviewing numerous attorneys, and for recommending Craig Truman to represent Bethe.

    I would like to thank Craig Truman and Dorian Welch for their thorough investigation and professional representation of Bethe and our interests.

    Lastly, I would like to thank the DA?s office and Bethe?s Lawyers for working together, in what normally is thought of as an adversarial relationship.

    Finally, I would like to thank the court for allowing this case to be expediated through the legal process.

    Thank you.
