I'm sure this will be a great TV Movie, but I wont have a lot of feeling for the mother in this story. My lover and I was talking about his on the way home from my sister's home today. I told him if I was able to be at an event with Her and the mother of Matthew Shepard, I would rather talk with Judy instead of Mary, For she accepted her son, where Mary basically drove her son to his death, only then after wards she gets a damn heart.
