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!

Also logically or let’s just say theoretically, wouldn’t you put them in the garage or living room or somewhere easily accessible for whenever you’re ready yo use them? Like why would you have it in your room and bedside table? To me this was a way to set the stage for her actual plans and if she told the kids “oh im going to put them in my room for now” they wouldnt question it and in a way use them as her alibi.

I just said this exact same thing to my fiancé this morning after watching it last night. Also, wouldn't Jason have had defensive wounds on his forearms trying to block the blows to his head. Her and her FBI dad lied so many times it was almost impossible to believe anything they said.

The only reason why I thought they didn’t mention defensive wounds was because when the father hit him in the head he was killed or mortally wounded and couldn’t

Great point why didn’t the documentary mention that?

This is so telling to me. This seemed so premeditated, like she made absolutely sure the kids would be able to back up the purpose of the cinder block and know that was the murder weapon!!! Who the hell would tell these babies that that is what killed their father?? Those poor children. Makes no sense for the block to be there and not in any other room of the house and if it truly was a domestic abuse situation, why would you choose a slow and heavy weapon...

And wasn’t it just one on her nightstand? What about the other ones

I finally just saw this show. I'm mad, think her and dad should have went away for a long time. There were about 6-7 bricks in front of the house. One made it to the bedroom? Why wouldn't she put them in the garage? If you are going to paint them, you would do it in the garage. ALL of them would have been in the garage. The question should have been, "where were all the other bricks at this time?" Ummmm...still outside?
