Shes harsh. A lot of what she said was true with the exception of the Bobbie Brown comment. She draws parellels between Whitney Houstons death and Bobbie Brown as beneficiary and makes her own conclusion.

Susan Moss the family attorney has no volume control, I can't handle her screeching bizarre voice. Is this the best they can find for her program.

It is strictly all about "The Ratings" Typical of many a prosecutor's mentality it is not about truth, it's about what will sell and who will win...

I hate how she naively blames Bobbie Brown as well. She hadn't been with him for 6 years. How does blaming him help? At the end of the day Whitney was responsible for herself may she RIP!

Great points you all My heart has softened a bit for Ms. Grace catching bits and pieces of her show tonight where she admits taking quite a bit of heat over the last couple of days for her horse before the cart opinions and yes it looks like she has backed down from alleging "someone" pushed Whitney down into the tub. She has steered it around to a little more rational discussion!

The talking head gossip mongers are having to admit that at least Cissy Houston has never said Bobbi Brown can't attend the funeral.

NG doesn't care about the truth, it's all about ratings. I wish she'd just go away. I know i wouldn't miss her.

I heard her go crazy about something about that case. Sounded really nutty. Maybe she needs a vacation.

Fortunately, Nancy Grace is a prosecutor that thinks like a prosecutor, and it is difficult for most people to understand her reasoning, when it comes to legal matters because they are not into it. She was most likely talking about possibilities for WH death. Yes, there is a possibility that someone could have pushed her into the tube, if they stand to gain from her fame and fortune, it happens a lot,
in true-crime stories.


As far as WH ex BB, they had seen each other up to recently I read in one of those magazines. After all, they have a daughter. And yes, he stands to gain, in her death. Remember, let's not forget that WH was a young, church-going, naive girl who fell in love with this HOODLUM, who got her into hard drugs.

And as far as NG is concerned, America would not know what is happening to our little children, if it wasn't for her program. She fights hard for our children, and every parent with common-sense knows that we need someone like that............today more than ever.

I thnik alot of people are making guesses based on history and even information provided by so called friends.Quite common with celebrities and people who watch such programs tho.To tell you the truth ;I was not surprised by the news much less shocked just watching her interview on drug problems and seeng her decline in appearance.

Owe you a rep.
After the Anthony thing last year ( imo a horrible failure of our justice system), I gave up on NG...she started out with possible good intentions, speaking for the victims, but now she is just a shrill sell-out for media ratings.

Its very sad that the deceased are used this way, regardless of what happened to whitney houston she clearly had alot of problems, and now the muckrackers are just making money off another tragedy...it really is sad, ten years ago the media was not this ssick, it really is a gore fest now.

Right which is why I always liked her, but I think even she realized she had to tone it down suggesting there was foul play. She was also sparring with Drew on his show playing prosecutor. She keeps pushing for others to acknowledge there is an investigation. I think it's just protocol and I don't think any doctors will come up on charges. I could be wrong. I get what angle she's coming in on but she was speculating quite a bit. I totally agree with her about prescription pill abuse but sometimes she seems out of touch on pop culture and her researching skills could be better.

I hope Whitney had her will up to date and picked others to handle it. Her daughter is 18 and she could have some kind of trust with Cissy at the helm perhaps or someone responsible Since her and Bobbi are divorced I hope he isn't part of it unless she included him separately somehow.
