No but you’ve made me intrigued….

Hungrycaterpillarsmummy · 05/09/2025 18:49

Yes, it is absolutely shocking. And she's still trying to pull the wool over her eyes.

ilovelamp82 · 05/09/2025 18:51

Insane. That poor girl.

EineReiseDurchDieZeit · 05/09/2025 18:53

Absolutely terrible and her poor child is still stuck in an abusive relationship with her. She was clearly obsessed with that little boy sexually speaking and should certainly have served more time than she did.

It’s a great show that more should watch and possibly worth asking MNHQ to put “spoiler alert” on the title as the OP gives it away

Myhairissopoofy · 05/09/2025 18:54

Well done for ruining the ending for those that haven’t watched it OP @WhereIsMyJumper

Plastictreees · 05/09/2025 18:58

Yes I posted on another thread about this. The doc is a really good example of true narcissism.

DeeKitch · 05/09/2025 18:59

Yes and going to re watch this weekend

incredible

WhereIsMyJumper · 05/09/2025 19:07

So sorry for the spoiler - I wasn’t thinking and have asked MN to amend.
I first learned about the documentary from a spoiler too but it was still worth watching!

I completely agree! The mental gymnastics she was doing at the end to justify what she did was astounding! She managed to explain away all her actions in her own head and seems to believe her own lies!

I think she should have been put on the sex offenders register, I also don’t understand why the police didn’t separate her and L immediately - L is the victim!

A shocking watch. I hope L can heal and break away from the enmeshed relationship.

That poor girl is badly abused and brainwashed that she cannot stop herself from wanting to be in her mothers life.

I felt so uncomfortable the way she was clinging to her daughter when the police officer came with the search warrant.

I think the school superintendent was right … she has a form of Munchausen’s.

cheeseomelette · 05/09/2025 19:44

Yes, I watched. It’s super upsetting. Her poor poor dd

I agree. I found her disturbing to watch. Trying to suggest that she was doing it to somehow catch the original perpetrator (it was obviously her!) or to try and protect her daughter somehow?! By telling her to kill herself? wtf?

Did she send the original texts or didn’t she? I am not soo sure.

Agree with this.

I think that the DD and husband must be living with trauma around this. Even the letters written were designed to emotionally blackmail.

In my opinion, yes.

Yes. Police said they never recovered any IP addresses other than hers

Youllnevergetabetterbitofbutteronyourknife · 05/09/2025 20:20

I just couldn't believe a mother would do that to her own child! It was very disturbing. I too was very uncomfortable, watching the mother clinging to the very child that she had told to go kill herself! It honestly beggars belief!

She did. The police confirmed it.

Dinosaurshoebox · 05/09/2025 20:27

I'm almost at the end.
How is she not being interviewed from jail?

Montereyjaaack · 05/09/2025 20:31

It’s one of the worst scenarios I’ve ever seen. When the police arrived and told them what they were there for I actually thought her daughter looked like she knew already. Like she knows but didn’t want to know. And in the aftermath it’s still like that.
Unbelievable cruelty

I thought this too, so intense and suffocating the way she was clinging on all over her. She was probably like this with her over anything.

Pickingmyselfup · 05/09/2025 20:33

I just can't understand how as a parent you would put your child through this. The sexual texts also 🤢🤢

What was the purpose because it definitely wasn't to protect her daughter. Did she have a thing for the boyfriend? Surely not?!!

I was gobsmacked when the perpetrators was revealed, it was just mind boggling how anybody could do that!

She served time and was released before it was filmed I assume?
