[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Interestingly, if it wasn't for the murders the trial would have never taken place and thus, none of us would have heard of her and she would have continued to suffer in silence. Half of her legal problems were due to her own actions and if she would have just accepted the facts, she would have had a fair outcome in the divorce. Unfortunately, she wanted more than what she was legally entitled to, was too stubborn to listen, and annoying enough to push her friends away when she needed them the most.[/quote]
We was due more than she received. Most of all a home and full custody of her children. They were cared for by housekeepers because Dan was vindictive.[/quote]
Dan didn’t take away the kids. Betty kept leaving the kids at his house thinking she would punish him. She chose to keep the kids away to play sick games. When they didn’t work she then cried and complained that he kept them from her. [/quote]

+1. If Betty really wanted lots of custody of her kids, she made horrible choices. I suspect she was playing the game just like Dan was; what sucked for her was that Dan was better at it. It came down to the point that the only way she could “win” was to kill him. [/quote]

Dan was notorious for being cold and shark-like in court, why he was so successful. He seemed to see Betty as just another opponent to be crushed, and crush her he did. Given his decision to cheat, gaslight, and end the marriage that formed the core of her identity, he should have been more generous and compassionate toward her. I truly believe he'd be alive today if he had done that. A tragedy, above all for those poor children. All four wept through their family impact statements in her last parole hearing.[/quote]
