I was intrigued by the "Preppie Murder" because it happened when I was the age of the victim and murderer. I watched the movie of course and just saw it again recently. I wonder how the parents of Jennifer felt at how she was portrayed as somewhat of a pest and looking as if she almost pushed Robert Chambers to the breaking point. Other than that...it was a good movie and pretty authentic of the time period. January 4, 2006

WhAT I CAN'T UNDERSTAND IS HOW COME THERE WERE SO MUCH DAMING EVIDENCE TO CONVICT ROBERT CHAMBERS OF MURDER AND HE STILL GOT THE CHANCE TO PLEAD GUILTY TO A LESSER CHARGE OF MANSLAUGHTER. STRANGULATION IS A RESULT OF CONTINOUS PRESSURE, SO HOW COULD IT BE AN ACCIDENT?. WAS THE JURY STUPID OR WHAT? I REMEMBER A JUROR SAYING THERE WASEN'T A CLEAR CUT PATH TO SHOW MURDER. WHAT MORE DID THEY WANT? BRUISING ALL OVER JENNIFER LEVIN'S BODY, STRANGULATION MARKS, PROVING SHE WAS BEATED AND STRANGLED. October 9, 2001
