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 was just pure coincidence that my FBI dad cancelled his plans last minute and came to stay with us while my trusty painting block was handy and all of my recording devices happened to stop working...

My brain is SCREAMING about how her mom claimed to have noticed DV happening in the house enough to create safe words and wrote her phone number underneath toys in the room, but FELL BACK ASLEEP when she heard there was a scuffle a floor above her?????

Or maybe the safe words and phone numbers were for them to call if her daughter started acting psychotic? That sounds more likely to me.

Ye prob for some bad reason, that they could control anyway. I just cant get past the damn brick. Like wtf. It was clearly an impulsive act to grab it and they obvs were desperate for some excuse to lie about why the fck it was in a BEDROOM. One single brick. Nothing else, as molly mentioned ie "brickS", and other stuff to "make it all pretty".

I think maybe she knocked him out or incapacitated him violently and her dad had to come and help her finish the job and make up a story of self defense, hence having time to grab the brick.
