  1. They had already asked him to leave and he agreed so there was zero reason for this.

  2.  @devarient  She didn’t say ANY of that, I think you need to get your hearing checked 👂

  3.  @katiesgamingxx  Yes that cop IS a problem, it said right in the video he knew about the abuse and did nothing about it and told the mom who was making the complaints to cps. He was likely the one tipping them off to clean and hide all of the chains every time someone called in on them too. How could you watch the video and say that he wasn’t part of the problem?😮

  4.  @madezra64  They didn’t know about it yet and she wasn’t charged or sentenced for having a relationship with her dad, she was charged for concealing and covering up a crime. I don’t know why that’s so hard for people to understand. If she hadn’t been abused everyone would be demanding to know why she didn’t get more than 9 years. Being abused does not absolve her of culpability in a crime.

  5. They probably are remembering what a loving mother she USED to be when they were still living at home and Christina was younger and easier to take care of. All of the bad things that were happening seemed to be recent, I think once she got with Larry she started using with him and Christina was getting older/bigger and harder to deal with and was getting in the way of Rita’s partying. I think that they believe that because when they were growing up she probably actually was a good mother, she was obviously a good teacher too and probably a good person before she started using.

  6.  @bretttobin9632  Depends on what part of the state they live in, 32 counties of southeast Ohio are considered appalachian.

  7.  @JokerSmilesGaming  I’m beginning to think that was Officer Bowman who was tipping them off.

  8.  @pixiemom81  Idk where you think you heard the grandfather laughing because he certainly didn’t.
    12
  9.  @CowboyredPedro  They said that they knew the family of some of the OFFICERS in the video, not that they were friends with the victim.

  10.  @AdmiralZinji  Thank you, while I do think that what happened to her was horrible and I hope that she gets the help she needs for that, it doesn’t change the fact that she lied about and helped cover up a crime. If she hadn’t been abused at all people would be screaming that she should’ve gotten a lot more time than she did.

  11. Exactly, that's so sad. For all of the people blaming covid and saying he lived in another state, they STILL could've sent the chaplain from his city's department to stand on his porch, sidewalk or anywhere 6 feet away and notify him in person! There's just some things you shouldn't have to hear over the phone, no matter what! 😢

  12. They didn’t know about it yet at that point. They didn’t find that out until later, you can see in the video when they interviewed her about it that her hair was really short, unlike how it was when she was first arrested and they had her do that.

  13. Obviously the daughter was groomed and SA by her dad for years and is in no way to blame for having a “relationship” with him. She did however lie and help cover up what happened to James, so I think that her sentence was warranted for that, I also think Frank should’ve gotten more time for his knowledge and lies about it too. Hopefully while she’s in prison and when she gets out she’s able to get the therapy she needs to deal with her SA and trauma.

  14.  @trophyscene5015  Nobody said that the original comment was ignorant, they’re saying the political comment that’s been deleted is

  15.  @cupidok2768  She didn’t throw them under the bus, they were immediately removed from the parents custody that day and placed in foster homes so there’s no way for them to be retaliated against. All 3 of the women are in prison now and the kids will be adults by the time they get out.

  16.  @Keiriks93  I know right? It’s just astonishing to me how many people think she should just get off scott free because she was abused yet if that wasn’t in the equation those same people would be screaming about the broken/crooked justice system and wanting her to get life like her dad. It’s always mind boggling to me how people can’t separate emotions from logic.

  17. Well she already got life in prison so what good would it do
    5
  18.  @gracegirl2206  So the employee who rushed to help her and caught on fire herself and the guy who threw the mop water on her to put out the fire which saved her life are lame to you? What would you have done then hero? 🤔

  19.  @Floridaman1780_  She was already on medication for her schizophrenia, she said that she had been taking it because she knew she had to.
    4
  20.  @dannyboy591  Maybe but considering she said she knew she had to take them and go to all of her appointments to keep getting her government check I’m gonna guess that she probably did . They do tests when you go to your appointments to make sure your meds are in your system and if they weren’t they would’ve cut her check off.

  21.  @bryanb3352  If your 13 year old can operate power tools then they obviously doesn’t have cerebral palsy, seizures, non verbal, wears diapers, in a wheelchair and TOTALLY dependent on someone else for ALL their needs like this little girl. THAT’S why this 13 year old shouldn’t have been left in the car alone period. The person you responded to specifically said 13 year olds with developmental delays, not ALL 13 year olds 🙄

  22.  @madezra64  Your dissertation on when a victim is not responsible for their actions is irrelevant here because her dad DIDN’T hold anything to her head and DIDN’T threaten her to keep her mouth shut about it nor did she ever try to claim he did. Yes it’s horrible that her dad groomed her but it doesn’t change the fact that she lied about and covered up a murder. If they had just been a regular couple who got high and killed someone so they could continue living in his house and sell all of his possessions for dope money you would be screaming from the rafters for her to get life too. What amount of abuse or trauma makes it ok for people to go commit crimes with no consequences in your eyes , where do you draw the line? R ape, incest, beatings, emotional abuse? Half of the people in prison for murder or assault are there because they suffered trauma in their lives so should they all be let out and their crimes just forgiven because they were a victim of something in their lives?

  23. Weird that Sarah was willing to take the blame for everything until Jen offed herself. Conveniently after Jen was no longer around to deny anything or claim anything different , it was all Jen's idea and she did everything. That's not suspicious at all 😂

  24. That’s probably one of the reasons she got life in prison instead of getting off by pleading insanity.

  25.  @Ranzoe813  It was a felony warrant, you don’t get a felony warrant for something minor lol.

  26.  @BuFFoTheArtClown  They meant they hope the grandmother is ok after the shock of losing her granddaughter in such a heinous and senseless manner

  27.  @kaylean39  I can confirm that’s absolutely true, it’s a love you just can’t explain. and it’s even greater if you’re also raising that grandchild.

  28. ​ @acedealien8136  For one, an 11 year old girl is not a woman. She obviously wasn't lying because he ADMITTED to it, open your eyes and put on your listening ears. FYI, it's *righteous, maybe learn to spell if you're going to start criticizing others 🙄

  29. What a horrific and agonizing death that poor baby had to suffer, this is absolutely heartbreaking 😢

  30.  @PoppyOnPoppy  Idk what’s more sad, your asinine comment or the fact that so many people liked it 🙄

  31.  @jennidv75  That’s a very slim possibility, I don’t see him getting parole anywhere near that soon after the heinous things he did.

  33.  @bretttobin9632  No problem, I live in Kentucky myself. I don’t live in Eastern Kentucky which is considered our Appalachian region, I live in central Kentucky ( a couple of hours from Cincinnati Ohio) right outside of Lexington so I’m surrounded by horse farms not mountains. I do have friends in eastern Kentucky and have visited Natural Bridge State Park and other places up there many times. Eastern Kentucky is very similar to the Smoky Mountains, I live about 3 hours from there so I’ve visited there many times too. I love visiting but I don’t think I could live in the mountains, I much prefer living right in the middle of Kentucky where everything is just a short car trip away.

  35.  @iamhereblossom1588  He was talking about the Dewey guy that dated their mother and SA’d them, by “put him away” I think he testified against him for the SA to help send him to prison

  36. We don’t even know what her charge was that she was released for, they can’t keep someone locked up forever for a misdemeanor.

  37. It makes perfect sense considering that he went to work, then on a date after work and came home and took painkillers that made him pass out. The guy was killed and the girl was beaten before he even got off work. The victim and the witness both said they never saw him and they have no reason to lie if he was in on it 🤷🏻‍♀️ the only people who MIGHT have heard anything are the kids and they didn’t show an interview with them in the video.

  38.  @bompsychompsy  Her mother was never shown in this video. The old lady was just a family friend that they lived with for awhile.

  39.  @JS-ii4xr  They’re not talking about the old lady in the video, that’s something her mother said when they spoke to her on the phone.

  46.  @Dapper_Doormat  Just hope you never have to find out how you would react in that situation because you don’t know what you would do. It’s easy to sit back and criticize when you’ve never been through the same thing 🙄

  48. ​ @bahamutdragon1754  Yeah, it's not like they couldn't use body cameras to record the exact same reaction and even get his facial/bodily reaction too, right? 🙃

  50. ​ @Kozoku  Weird that literally NOBODY who went to meet the supect, their girlfriend, mother or anyone else, in other states, had on a mask or kept 6 feet away. But sure, notifying his dad was WAY too dangerous 🫠

  51. Absolutely
    1
  52.  @STCatchMeTRACjRo  Sure let’s just forget the fact that there’s sentencing guidelines that judges are required BY LAW to follow and start violating everyone’s civil rights by keeping them locked up for longer than the law allows because of crimes they might commit later. That’s not how it works, she should’ve been civilly committed but she wasn’t because she was given meds and taking them like she was supposed to. ANYONE can commit a crime but they can’t keep everyone in the world locked up just because they might.

  56.  @daddyrabbit835  She got life in prison. She doesn’t qualify for the death penalty because of her mental illness and even if she dead a hate crime is not a death penalty qualifier so as I said, it wouldn’t change a thing.

  67. When I heard those screams of anguish and despair from her son I lost it. I completely agree that she needs to be held responsible for her actions but hopefully that happens in a state institution because it’s clear that this woman has some serious mental health issues and needs to be somewhere where she can be medicated and get treatment while serving her time so that something like this doesn’t happen again when she gets out. I’m so glad that the baby survived and is doing better now and I just hope that she continues to thrive and doesn’t have any lasting medical issues because of this 😢

  70. This kid is an absolute MONSTER 👿 He didn’t have one shred of remorse for anything he did and had the audacity to blame his victim for not locking her door 😱 he couldn’t even spare a bare minimum of remorse for anyone but himself because he “ruined his life” not even caring about the other lives he ruined 😢. I can only hope that there’s no way that a parole board would release him, at least not until he’s a very old man.

  71.  @cupidok2768  The kids were immediately removed from their custody that day and placed in foster homes so the parents didn’t have a chance to retaliate, especially since they’re all in prison now.

  72.  @MelDamgaard  Well her being SA by her dad and the fact that she’s an addict does explain why she was having seggs with a much older man actually but that’s not what she was sentenced to prison for, she was sentenced because she lied about and helped cover up a crime and I think people are losing sight of that in their rush to feel sorry for her because of what happened to her. I do feel bad that she was abused but that doesn’t absolve her from guilt of a crime. As I said to someone else, if she hadn’t been abused people would be talking about how broken our system is because she only got 9 years instead of 20
    1
  73.  @MelDamgaard  Yeah, I didn’t mean that I thought you believed she was unfairly sentenced or anything, I just mentioned it because of all of the other people saying she didn’t deserve to be sentenced at all because of the SA, I guess I just worded it wrong.

  75. He wasn’t posting the videos online or anything so nobody saw them, they were a video diary he made that he left inside his house when he set it on fire, they were only found because the house didn’t explode like he thought it would.
