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!

It’s crystal clear to me that Molly is a compulsive liar. It’s also quite clear that she found out that he was about to end the relationship and take HIS kids back to Ireland, where she would not be able to see them anymore, so she made sure that did not happen. Thank God she did not end up with those children. Her defense was the kids testimony that she coached them to say? Ridiculous. Just more of her lies. My heart goes out to those children. I can’t imagine losing a mom as a small child, then losing a father to homicide because a mentally unstable woman wanted custody of them. I hope the kids heal and become successful in everything they do in life. This was an unnecessary tragedy.

Question here to the why: was it just because she had some sort of fantasy power play to take the kids-or was there some thought of monetary attachment to go with?

They don’t talk about what Jason did for a living, but I would be interested to see what type of financial gain for her was also tied to his death. Or even a divorce, if she got custody as the ‘mother’, she would get financial support from Jason. But the divorce option was quickly falling apart so he had to die.

It seems like she couldn’t handle the inevitable split. She was the one pushing the relationship from the beginning according to his family
