  • She was a successful financial analyst who fell in love with a New York City attorney. From a distance, Angela Bledsoe and James Ray seemed like a perfect match. But behind the scenes, the relationship was stormy.
    Angela Bledsoe and James Ray III were a New Jersey "power couple" who lived in a million dollar home in Montclair. But behind the scenes, Angela's family worried about Ray's possessive behavior. In a text, Bledsoe's sister said, "Angie, you need to get out of there." Ten days later, Bledsoe was dead. With no witnesses, prosecutors had to depend on forensic evidence to unravel the mystery.

    People can't always see what's going on in a family. Especially if the person is too ashamed to let the family know. Angela was a very independent person, so that's why she kept the emotional abuse to herself. Feeling she can handle the situation, but you can't be too independent to not realize you also need help sometimes. I pray that with the love of her family, and hopefully her uncle, she live a good life and isn't dwarf by what her father did. May she be guided by the light of God! I wish her success in all she does. God bless her. May Angela RIP. This was a very sad story.

That man was exceptionally cold. He had no soul!!! Completely and utterly empty. He was jealous of Angela. He had no idea what Love is. A man cannot love anyone until he knows who God is and builds a relationship with God.

    Let me tell you some women if you get successful, get your own business and have yourself together don’t put no man in your business just go out a day or something like that. If you need a man that don’t have no husband don’t have no boyfriend don’t have none of that because me, and are very jealous of women with, they got they all they really don’t need you being they are jealous of those type of women they try to bring them down. They try to store them so they won’t have nothing so they have to depend on them and they get the control so women are urge. You is best to be by yourself these days, I’m telling you.
