"Anger Management Class". About as useless as a Restraining Order. But it makes a judge feel warm and fuzzy.

Impressed by her brother and his wife who immediately stepped up to raise her three children. That's good family right there. They must be all grown up by now, I hope they're doing well and have healed from the tragedy and pain of losing their mother 🙏🏻

Wow! This is a “rare” one where the violent ex husband is not the killer/convicted killer . I thought it would be Dickson . Glad they found the right person !

I saw this infamous case from Crime Watch Daily before. The daughter's outcry for her mother to come back was so real that it still resonates till today. Despite leading a double life, no one deserves to die the way Paige did. Its been almost two decades, yet Paige's case still haunts us to the core until today. Rest in peace Ms. Birgfeld, gone too soon but never forgotten!!

How come such loving and dedicated family never asked her over the years how she could afford such expensive house by herself?
