She got into SUNY Fredonia for art but didn't go. She moved to FL with her loser and worked at Publix.


Oh, she and the boy went to the same high school? Her parents didn’t care that she was moving to Florida for a dead-end job? Did the boy ever work or try college?


They met in high school but started dating later. Her not going to college wasn't linked to him I think, at least not at first. She lived in NC first and was a waitress during that time. I am sure her parents (she has two sets, remarriage and everyone gets along) cared very much and still do. They do domestic violence advocacy now. I have no idea what he did post- high school.

The main cop was an abuser himself

It doesn't appear either of them ever went to college even for a bit. He was older than she was by a few grades I believe. I'm not sure why her parents didn't try to make her go to college or stop her from moving to FL with a boy she barely knew (at that point.)

They all seem like great parents (both parents and step parents) they just seem a little hands off. To hear them describe it, they all expressed shock that she wanted to move to FL but never told her she shouldn't go.

I remember knowing 100% that she was dead when everyone found out he was at home with his parents.

I'm glad her parents sued them and won. Still doesn't seem just especially given the parents involvement in covering up her death and allowing their son to roam free.

Maybe the most shocking part of the documentary to me was the detailed interaction with the cops where they were thinking about charging her with battery when the witness clearly saw him battering her.


Society hates women. That's all!


Flying monkey cops manipulated by a narcissistic murdering liar.

The cop had enormous baggage because he projected his wife onto her, he even said so several times! Is his bias her fault as well? As a woman, if I saw a young woman upset like this and a way too calm man, I would immediately think he is the dangerous one.


Exactly! So gross. And he thought he was being super supportive and enlightened when it was really just "crazy woman go take a shower."

Ugh, bad message.

How about every man should learn not to abuse women?

I noticed how hard he slammed the van door in the Whole Foods footage where she was last seen. My guess is he found out somehow that she was talking to her ex.


This. Every girl should watch that video. So much to learn from every person on that video

I found it odd that the video is still published and that (they) are pushing for YouTube earnings

I thought this mention was really odd, like how great it was that she had gotten so many views! It sends the wrong message.

Didn't really like this doc. Not sure how to describe this but it felt off somehow. I'n not sure what it was about it. Once again though, geez, social media is fake as hell and pursuing a life or identify from it is such a mistake.

I felt very sorry for the parents.



I feel that way about most Netflix docs. Something a little crass and exploitative about them plus not very well-produced.


Great comment

Ugh. I think I’ll skip it. For this case, I feel
like I read and watched everything in real time. And analyzed it with my friends in real time. I even have public policy goals that were crystallized back then. The police video and transcripts are a must see
