My first Ann Rule book, but won’t be my last! Such an engaging writer and I have burst out laughing so many times at how sarcastically she writes about this nut-job Dianne Downs. What a piece of work that chick was!!! Lol. If you like True Crime, this is a must read. I remember the story when it happened and I saw the Farrah Fawcett movie back in 1989, so this book was really interesting.
"Small Sacrifices" was written over twenty years ago and it remains one of the greatest true crime stories of all time. Ann Rule is a first class writer. She is so well known for her true crime books that it's easy to forget that her writing- her writing style- is very fine indeed, full of elegant descriptions of the Pacific northwest that she knows so well, remarkable insights of the players on her stage and heavily flavored with almost unbearable suspense. The research required to pen "Small Sacrifices," which took three years to write, was staggering. The book is just as topical today as it was when it was written, and the tragic saga of one woman's unspeakable crime will forever tear at the reader's heartstrings.Diane Downs shot all three of her children in the car and then dawdled along on the way to the hospital, giving the children time to die. Her little girl Cheryl died at almost once, "death so close behind her it could whisper in her ear" while Christie and Danny were heroically saved by the medical personnel at the hospital emergency ward, but both children were severely handicapped. Christie was so traumatized she sustained a stroke even though she was only 8 years old. She hovered "as tentatively as a butterfly's wings" at death's door before the team of frantically working doctors brought her back from the abyss. Little Danny at only three years old was shot in the spine and will be paralyzed for life from the waist down, but the heroic efforts of the doctors saved his life.Diane concocted a story of a bushy haired man who suddenly appeared in the street ahead of her car and demanded the car, then shot all three children, a tale that did not convince the police assigned to her case. Diane shot herself in the arm after shooting Cheryl, seven, Christie, eight, and Danny, three, at point blank range. Of course the invented story made no sense at all. Why would a gunman shoot three small children and not kill Diane who could identify him?Diane wanted to get rid of the children because her married boyfriend Lew didn't want kids. The children, of course, are the "small sacrifices". A year after the shooting Diane was finally indicted and brought to trial. As always, Rule is a hands-on writer and she sat perhaps two feet from Diane during much of the trial. She can describe how Diane at one point along with the people in the courtroom was listening to "Hungry Like a Wolf" the song that had been playing in her car when Diane shot her children. Diane sat there at the side of her lawyer, merrily snapping her fingers and juggling her leg in time to the music, apparently oblivious she was on trial for murder.While her little girl, Christie, who barely survived being shot in the chest twice, was on the witness stand the courtroom was eerily silent, hushed, almost frozen with horror. The little girl had one paralyzed arm and her speech was halting but she named her own mother as the shooter and the killer of her little sister. Up there on the witness stand she struggled with her emotions and practically everyone in the courtroom except Diane was in tears. Rule described Diane's strange yellow or green eyes and her inappropriate laughter. There is something extremely discordant about Diane Downs.Rule delves deeply into the psyche of Diane Downs. Diane had lamented over her unhappy childhood and abuse by her father. But most children who are abused do not become killers. Diane is thought to have three serious personality disorders: narcissism, histrionic disorder and she's a sociopath. Like her soul mate Ted Bundy, she is always on stage and the center of that stage. She cares absolutely nothing about anybody, and her obsession with Lew, the married man she shot her children for, is just that: an obsession. Diane believes that people exist to serve her without her giving anything in return. She is and was an empty shell devoid of sympathy, empathy and love. The only love she is capable of is for herself and she has no conscience. Like all sociopaths, she's an accomplished liar. An empty shell.Ann Rule keeps you reading her page -turner, gasping at the horror and you may even shed a tear or two over those children, wounded so long ago by their own mother. The evil in Diane is balanced by the good of people involved in the case: the doctors who struggled to save the childrens' lives, the detectives who labored on the case, the Slaven family who cared for the children during the trial, and especially the prosecuting attorney, Fred Hugi, who adopted Christie and Danny after Diane was convicted and sent to jail, brought them up with love and sent them to college. (Christie is now married and has a baby boy of her own. Danny, although in a wheelchair, is a cheerful, successful computer whiz).Diane, Rule emphasizes, is not insane because a psychosis (insanity) can be treated by therapy and medication and can be reversed. There is hope for an insane person, but the sociopath will never change. He bears the mark of Cain which will brand him for life. You could almost say that the tattoo of a rose Diane has on her shoulder is the mark of Cain.
I remember the movie based on the book. So, I decided to grab the book finally. Well written and researched. I have read other books by Ann Rule.I felt all sort of emotions reading this. I cried for Downs children. What they suffered through. Poor babies. No one was there for them. But was so happy they finally found a loving family. They do deserved it. Cheryl, RIP sweet girl.If you have not read this, I highly suggest you do. You'll get a disturbing view into a psychopath.
I actually read this book on my iPhone during my morning commute using the Kindle app! Another gem of compulsively readable nonfiction from Ann Rule, which, somehow, I had not read when it was published. The story of a horrific crime committed by a deluded, histrionic narcissist personality known as Diane Downs, a woman who shot her 3 young children (one died, two were paralyzed) in the 1980s, purportedly so she could hold onto her married "boyfriend" at the time (or so she ir-rationalized). It was also made into a film, in which Farrah Fawcett played a chilling Diane Downs. I love getting inside the mind of a twisted criminal and Rule does not disappoint. In the book, I learned that Diane Downs was sexually molested by her father, beginning at age 12. I've yet to read a true crime book where the criminal was not somehow abused as a child. The abuse in no way excuses her actions, but it explains a lot about her behavior. This book is as good as "A Stranger Beside Me," Rule's great book about Ted Bundy.
Truly an excellent read for those who are interested in true crime. This true crime story takes place in the Great Northwest (Oregon). Without going into too much detail, this story concerns the murder and attempted murder of three small children...this by their own mother.This book describes the crime in detail along with the follow-up police investigation and criminal trial outcome.The Author, Ann Rule, is a true professional when it comes to writing about true crime. As with all of her books, this book delves into the actual Killer's psyche. The question is, and will always remain, why?..........why was the crime committed? In order to come to a conclusion to the question, the reader will be provided a psychological profile of the Killer herself. The book includes actual photos of some of the police personnel involved and also includes actual photos of the children, their mother, and of the crime scene. Photos are not graphic.
I like to get an idea of what makes them do what they do. And Ann Rule tries to ferret out the truth about that. This book in particular made me conclude that she dissociated, or fooled herself into believing she hadn't shot her kids. But most of all, I blame her father as being the cause of her mental disorder. If I had been his daughter, I would've like to stick a knife through his gizzard for screwing up my brain.
Probably everyone remembers Diane Downs from an '80's movie of the same title starring Farrah Fawcett. BTW, she did a wonderful job. Back to the book - Diane makes for a very interesting character for sure. The author goes way back to her past to try to get the reader to understand how this woman could shoot her three kids but alas Diane defies an explanation. Ann Rule is a very good writer - descriptive and to the point. One gets a good mixture. She is very learned in the human psyche and I like how she explained criminal procedures/investigations, etc . - at least how it was down in 1984. I'm not sure why I bought the book - only that it came up on a search and since I had only seen the movie, I bought it & I'm glad I did although the crimes committed were heinous, despicable, etc.
