    May I add that when police arrived on the scene, Christina Gaston's body was STILL hanging though she was alive. David Franklin never bothered to cut her down. Hanging, until full death, usually takes around 20 minutes. The timing of his phone call to 911 and her time of death doesn't really add up. She would have had to hang herself just minutes before he walked in. Thanks to Scene for following this. However, I speak from experience when I say that the CHPD doesn't like to conduct investigations (remember how the screwed up a chance to catch Anthony Sowell?) and that they do not press charges for false statements. To get the CHPD to admit a mistake would be impossible, and for them to reopen the case or to go after David Franklin would be them saying they screwed up. The law protects it's ego first.
