If he could come through something like that and find happiness and love again, then good for him. I'm happy for him and it sounds like his late wife's family is, too.

I think you shoud save your cynicism for something that actually affects your life.
This.
For all you know that poor man has been tormenting himself with "Is it too soon?" & "What will people think?". And this is why. Because people like you, that will never understand what he has been through, think they have the right to an opinion. You are a jerk.
The whole tone in the OP just reeks of superiority and judgyness. If he's happy, then why the hell is it any of our business. Actually, why is it any of our business in the first damn place.
Well I for one would love to watch him to continue to suffer after all that he went through so I agree with you. I mean geez it isn't like he is lonely or anything after losing his whole family. ^o)

I can't begin to imagine why a person would judge an innocent man who had his entire life ripped from his hands in the most horiffic way imaginable suddenly finding happiness again. He is not guilty of a crime, or of murder, or of any wrongdoing. Why should he suffer a life of lonliness???
Five years is a very long time. If he has been able to get through that and still be able to open his heart again, more power to him - teamyourebeingadouche
Yeah, I can't believe he brought a date to his wife and kid's funeral and then ran away to Vegas to be married the next week.
Oh wait, he didn't.
He went through the publicity, the trial and pain. And now, after five years of grieving (which will always be part of his life), he is trying for a new chance at happiness.
I read an article on this a year or so ago, and it indicated that he was living with his parents, tortured, isolated, not sleeping, etc. Man, I just lay in bed that night thinking about the horror of it, and wondering if/how anyone could find any normalcy or happiness after that. I'm SO happy to hear that he has found someone to love and to be a part of his healing.

Eh, your whole post is a judgement. Wtf?! I cannot even begin to imagine how you could feel "cynical" about a man who's been through such an unimaginable trauma, surviving and finding happiness.
I will only judge the bowtie. But good for him for finding someone amidst all the pain and strife of losing his first family. I hope he's well and happy.
