I think she wants the attention & that is a reason for the netflix show. Stress? What about the poor deceased man’s family? How must they feel with her being filmed? She has changed how she looks & has had an upgrade. All for show.
Not one l’ll be watching.

He was as definitely a dealer! 100000%! He was not weighing food on those scales!

Even when it was revealed, like you, I couldn't believe who it was. I kept say to myself, nah this isn't real.

eTA - it is a slightly different take on the case. The focus is different .

Okay. I thought the Crash documentary was very clear that:
- she floored 99mph nonstop in the final few seconds of the crash, which could not happen if you've fallen asleep at the wheel or blacked out
- she didn't lose control, because the road had bends which the car took without fail until there was a building directly ahead that she could crash into and there was no braking at any point (which someone losing control & without intent would intuitively attempt at least)
I wonder if she was male would anyone even spend a second doubting her intent.

I have watched several programmes about this crash. This is the 1st time I have seen her or her parents interviewed though. Her parents are horrendous & as a PP said lots of information about her social media use after the incident & her behaviour before was left out.
What I can't get to the bottom of is how her 20 year old boyfriend was able to buy her all the designer stuff. His dad said he was into crypto currency and he had his own place. I think there was a lot unsaid there.
This is not victim blaming Dominic but surely based on the text messages he was a dealer.

My problem is that I watch EVERYTHING, I have Netflix on my iPad and I watch it all the time when I'm doing jobs around the house e.g. laundry, making beds etc - to get me through the after work chores. But because i watch so much - i forget what I've watched. I'm 100% sure I've watched this but its already fallen out of my head.

Can't believe I forgot this one!
Up there with Cold Justice and Ths First 48 for me (my two absolute favs)Have watched every single episode and it's one of the very few true crime shows that my OH watches with me. Some of it is very badly acted (mainly the lawyers) but man, the way it twists like a twisty turny thing. I've screamed, shouted, ranted, laughed, cried and been left utterly bereft and bewildered by this one at times.
I challenge anyone who thinks the USA justice system is better than ours to watch seven seasons of this and then come back to me,

Just watched the Press & Journal 2021 doc about the case of Shaun Ritchie, who went missing on Halloween night from a remote farm up in Fraserburgh, Scotland, back in 2014.
Such a frustrating case. 8 other people there that night, 5 of which were his close friends, and no one has spoken up about what really happened. I could fully believe it was a simple case of an accident and he ended up in a bog, but it's the fact there's no sign of his body, no one raised the alarm for 2 days and not a single person has said anything publicly, let alone try and drum up support to find him. It really doesn't pass the smell test and I'm genuinely surprised someone hasn't cracked and said something by now.
Seeing his poor sister break down was heartbreaking, can only imagine how much the not knowing has prolonged the pain of losing Shaun. It's so needless, it makes it feel like something awful must have happened for everyone to close ranks and not try and find their mate and give the family some peace and closure.
It can be watched here (for free), if anyone's interested

Watched Catching my stalker. wtaf
. The police were actually horrendous. The way they treated her partner. The patronising “ sir ive never met you before” when he dared to show anger and emotion.

I watched it a few days ago.
Her parents were awful. Their child was not badly behaved… why did the school have you go in so much? Then her mum being pulled up by the judge during the victim impacts. You totally saw where their child got it from.
YouTube has been my recent go to for the bodycam videos, EWU Crime Storytime being one. Real police footage is crazy, the ways people will behave even in the face of evidence.
For deeper analysis I'm a huge fan of Chase Hughes, who gives insight into human behaviours from his skills and abilities. He has videos on how women can avoid narcissistic relationships, but he's not sensational about this, just real and without drama.
There's loads of tips on this thread for my catch ups on Netflix etc, love all sorts of crime stuff.
I did once meet Mick Philpott, unfortunately, in my time at the benefits office - he was bluster and sexist, I had to do hard focus professional with him, horrible man

BBC has a three part docu on Dr Ann Burgess called "To Think Like a Killer". I really enjoyed it

I went in cautiously and even then I switched it off after a couple of minutes, as I could see her gasping in the attention and her demeanour was off-putting. From what I recall of Vanishing Cyclist, she wasn't 100% cooperative of the investigation and was fucking around with the police at some point. I don't know if that made it into the Netflix one.
