Just watched it. I think he was as thick as two short planks tbh and desperately wanted to believe there was money coming his way!

I think she never expected to be pulled over by a state trooper and planned to get home and be in bed with "her newborn" when Wade would get in.
How she thought she would ever get away with it is unfathomable.
She should have just disappeared around the due date and left a note to say she lied.
Such a cruel and wicked end to both Reagan and her baby's lives.

I watched it today. Wade isn't the sharpest tool in the box to be fair. I think he was probably a bit scared of her. He knew she was a fantasist and he couldn't face it or didnt know what to do i think.
I also think its shocking how many opportunities that passed where she could have been exposed yet everyone danced around it. Even that hospital facility who said they locked their maternity unit down as they thought she might steal a baby.
Why didn't they raise a concern with police about her? At the very least they could have been watching her and known she was hanging about with a girl who was approx at the same gestation in pregnancy.
She claimed to have given birth at the side of the road yet not a hint of a post birth bump or mess on her pyjamas. The state trooper didnt even attempt to resuscitate the baby, he said he couldnt, it needed an EMT. Holy shit, how poor a response was that?
I believe there is a really good youtube video about it all in much more detail. There were a lot of shocking details not in the Netflix programme. I don't mean that in a ghoulish way.
The poor mother really suffered and her family were so graceful.

Him, his Mum and friend all seems quite thick to be, but him exceptionally slow. I noticed how thin his dogs were too. Think he must have neglected them.

Yes, I did someone on Reddit say they thought he was just thick.
Must be why he didn’t question the pregnancy went on for 10 months

Yes, the one dog on its own, not in a crate like the others was just so thin. I know there were terrible things in that programme but that made me have no sympathy for him.

Just finished watching it.
I think he just wanted an easy life and didn't know how to dump her so just went along with it and buried his head in the sand.
She didn't seem to show much remorse, least they didn't say she did anyway

I know it sounds awful, but they came across as trailer trash type of people. They sounded so thick.

They're a different breed in rural Texas!
I actually guessed the whole story after about five minutes in, having absolutely no knowledge of it before. I watch an enormous amount of true crime and, as such, I was aware of this case, which is almost identical

That was all I was thinking about all the way through. I was just a bit hazy on the details but I knew it was a Facebook or Craigslist meet up engineered by the perpetrator and it was to do with baby items.
Anyway, I strongly suspect that, given the timing - the Chicago case happened a year before and we know that all details will have very likely been made public well before the trial, because that the way the American justice system (wrongly) rolls - that this was Taylor's blueprint and she was doing an awful lot of Googling.

Same as the Believe in Magic and Love Trapped cases, more needs to be done to expose and openly/legally deal with Munchausen's & Munchausen's by proxy cases because these people are often very very dangerous as they escalate and shouldn't be handled with kid gloves.
You wouldn't let a paranoid schizophrenic run riot in the streets because "let's wait and see if anything happens" -- no, you'd get them sectioned.

She was driving with her hazards on and she called an ambulance to say she was having her baby and needed to be taken to the hospital. I’ve no idea how she expected to get away with that. U would think that, as u said, she would be at home with the baby when Wade got back.

I assumed she only made that call when she realised a state trooper was behind her. One of the first things she said was that there was a trooper behind her.

I agree they all knew she was going to do something drastic when the due date got nearer. They could at least have reported to the police as an accident waiting to happpen! Why didn’t the police attempt to resuscitate? Anyone know what the you tube doc is called please?
