Additional Comments: I have been watching the show regularly, just as I read this board regularly and enjoy both. I have read many a post about Janet (whom I loathe) keeping the information about Uncle Ralphie from Liberty, which in turn has left Liberty hating Jack because of him killing her father. Now, we all know Janet is a snake, but there were a lot of other people involved and in the picture when Brad was shot, not to mention Katie who seems hell bent on blaming Henry, when it was Katie and Katie alone that got herself involved in the mess and whom I hold directly responsible for getting her husband killed. No one told her to go and have a face off with Ralph. Not Henry, not anyone. Katie seems to have a decent relationship with Liberty. Has she told LIberty that Ralph kidnapped her? Has Henry told Liberty that Ralph is a scumbag. Has Dusty told Liberty that Ralph is a scumbag. Has anyone told Liberty that Katie was the one that got the wheels turning, which led to this unfortunate incident. Everyone is hoping that Janet tells Liberty about Ralphie, but we know that Janet is a selfish beast. It might not happen. But why cant any of these other people tell her what scum Ralphie is. I mean, my god, Barbara knew. Paul and Emily knew. Who else knows?

I think what people are objecting to is that we haven't heard anyone tell Libby the entire story. She knows Brad went to rescue Katie and the baby. She knows Jack drank some beer before going to the warehouse and shooting Brad. And she knows Jack kept that fact from Margo.
We also know Libby's been told the shooting was an accident. I think where Libby's attitude comes in is that Jan didn't immediately tell Libby it was Jack who shot Brad, and that he then omitted having those beers---so to her, it looks like a cover up. Added to Jack's guilt--he can't even go to his brother's funeral, he didn't defend himself to her at all when she mouthed off about the beers and now the fact that he's left town--she'd lashing out at the most convienent target---Jack.
Libby needs someone to blame. Jack (in his own way) wants to be blamed. And I think Jan is adding fuel to the fire, "comforting" Libby ineffectually and sending signals she blames Jack herself for Brad's death.

Message: Janet likes to put her own spin own things. She blames Terri for Uncle Ralphie but she had no qualms when he went to see Paul and Emily on her behalf. She waited what, 15 years to tell Liberty about her father because she wasn't sure he would be good for her? Why doesn't one person call that woman down? And why doesn't her daughter resent the years she didn't have with her father because of Janet?

Message: Here's the problem. Janet won't let Parker get within 10 feet of the girl. Liberty insists on arguing with Parker that Jack is to blame anyway. Teri isn't even allowed to bring the girl food FCOL because The Rack is refusing to let Teri anywhere near her. Jack is already blaming himself. Katie is a little busy with her own grief right now. Carly doesn't know enough to really know what to tell Liberty but I am pretty sure Janet's head would explode if she tried. Dusty's probably going to be the one to tell Liberty at this point.
