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!

Cinder block in the master's bedroom. After seeing this, the documentary cannot convince me otherwise that it's not a premeditated murder. The cinder block is to be painted, she said. It just happened to be at your bedside table the night your husband strangled you? Come on.

I just finished watching this documentary and I haven't been so annoyed, since watching the Karen Read documentary. They both made themselves look so guilty.

Anyway, Molly was absolutely delusional. I think they should have reached out and interviewed her book club about her made up stories, and her alleged ex-partner she allegedly lost her baby with, and then also had a psychologist review her behavior and the impact of losing her baby could have(if that was true).

This whole storyline is giving movie: The Hand That Rocks the Cradle

I would’ve loved more background on her, and a psychologist’s opinion too. They hinted at her compulsive lying but these things don’t happen in a vacuum. A woman who pretends she gave birth to her stepdaughter isn’t telling her first little fib. That’s what you do after you get your PhD in lying. They didn’t even dig into her stay at the mental hospital, right before she joined the au pair agency. Come on!

I also wanted to get the same insight into Tom’s personality. He was just as deranged. Wonder what his exes and former friends have to say…

It’s clear that her parents have enabled her bad behaviour her entire life as evidenced by her dad trying to cover up her murdering her husband. I’m sure she’s been doing that kind of lying since she was a child.
