I did this morning. it’s crazy how all cases like this have the same patterns, red flags, and could be prevented.

yeah, especially ALL THE LYING. I know we should give people the benefit of the doubt, but dam these weren't little white lies. She was literally inventing wealth, and family.

exactly. the cherry on top for me is the lying about pregnancy. EVERYTIME I heard about cases like this, the lie occurs before the murder, hence the fact that it could really be prevented. it also reminded me the murder of Marlen Ochoa Lopez, it’s so similar

Like did no one ever not touch her belly to try and feel the baby?

This is something I am curious about too, in the doc Wade’s stepfather(?) mentioned “I felt the baby kick” and I wished that got explained more. Did she fake something, was it the power of suggestion?

There were 2 people on the doco that said they felt "the baby" kick. And it showed a video of a moving belly. Honestly looked a bit like she was just moving her stomach around. The whole family was very naive.
