I sure hope my husband would have more to say about me than I’m “thin”
The amount of sick people in this world that think their partner is property that belongs to them is astounding.
The husband is alarmingly unconvincing
The fact her mom was the one filing the missing person report says it all.
" Theresa, this is Sam, it's Friday night, three O'Clock... "
Yeah, sure...she decided to get a new place and started moving her things, because she actually planned to run away to Mexico with Elvis halfway through the process. Leaving her family completely in the dark. Obviously we MUST believe this astounding logic, because the murderer and his brother says so! 🤦♀️
I see I'm not the only one who heard, "She knows exactly what button to push when she wants to fight" and instantly recognized that as the super common excuse of an abuser!
The voicemails from the loved ones broke my heart. She was so loved 💔
Brother sounds abusive just the same, that’s exactly why he’s so delulu
