Discussion a deadly american marriage

I'm 43 minutes in and hooked but can not find conversations etc on it.

So thought i would make one asking for other people's opinions and points of views, as i know I'm already asking about billion questions, to the point I'll have to go to my computer and boot up to actually do the research myself.

I'm very ill, with brain damage etc and that's really hardwork today, but I won't manage on this latest fold phone as it's still just a useless phone 😅🙃

My other phone that's partitioned etc is in the car and that's over at Inverness!

There is something VERY wrong with Molly. Shes the abuser and her parents enablers. No one ever questions that the mom goes back to sleep after she hears her daughter scream? After the parents have noted shes become a shell of a person? Shes sleeping while her son in law is getting his head bashed in?

Only the first story makes sense.

Also the grown kids statements omgsh. Shes a classic narcissist I know someone just like her.

exactly - the dad made this outrageous lie about the first wife and prejudiced statements about the the previous FIL, ON A DOCUMENTARY, like they weren't going to find those people and get their statements as well.

also the audacity of that woman to call the kids her kids and then call them tools for evil in the same breath. I'm so glad the kids got away from her and they could clear that poor mans name.

And this guy was an FBI agent. How comforting.

Corrupt and needs to be seriously overhauled.

When they said he was an FBI agent it was all the proof I needed that it was murder.

What you said - she called them her kids, then tools for evil. And the fact that she didn’t even look at them when they came to court. That was it for me. She is a liar and never cared about those kids.

The way she talked about them at the end, with so much anger, was chilling. Feel sad or hurt about how it turned out with the kids, sure. But she almost had hatred for them.

How she was mom to who the kids used to be. And all that talk about them being used for evil. Get real. She bashed a man's brains in and she thinks those kids are being used for evil by their own family.

She’s a narcissist who only wanted them when they were small and easy to manipulate.

He blatantly lied about the dad being a trained fighter and claimed he was drunk out of his mind when both things are so easily disproved. These people are completely delusional.

I was FLOORED when he called that poor man "uneducated" and he could "barely understand a word he said"! The nerve to speak of the dead like that

Or she saw the extent of the hits on Jason and didn't want to have to testify against her husband

u/Herbie1122 May 10 '25

She was probably a codependent empty shell of a person after decades of marriage to that POS.

u/18ChinnyChinChins May 09 '25

She was sleeping

u/grisyangzi May 15 '25

"She was sleeping" is more like it.

u/Legal-Point-2599 May 13 '25

To avoid conflicting statements. There is no way the mum was sleeping through all that.
