@@Lizzie-h3j Never married, but that’s okay. I’m 73 and not looking. I have my two mastiffs, 🐕 🐕 and a 🐈⬛. As for any potential friend, male or female, if my stiffies don’t like you, it’s over before it gets started. I meet you in a public place, not my home or yours.
But, he had said his wife and kid had died. And she’s way smarter than other women in similar cases. Her gut was on point. She also took her time getting to know him. Not like she married him right away. Took her over a year.
"I just found out that my husband could be a wanted murderer, so I snooped around and saw that his documents were false. And when he got home, I SHOWED HIM THE MISTAKES." GIRL WHATTT?? 💀🤦
@@Campfire30 see that’s what my biggest problem was. U can b a dumb ass on your own time but when you have kids.., you’re responsible for their welfare. I wouldn’t even let that man near my dogs (bc he’s sketch and I’m not that big of an idiot and don’t play helpless victim) But yeah she’s definitely lucky nothing happened to her kiddos! She gave that man every ample opportunity to kill them all.
Nailed it! That's why I actually really like stories like these being told because it helps people, women in particular, to realize how important it is to listen to your gut the FIRST time it tells you somethings off.
When someone says their whole family is dead, that usually is a red flag. EDIT: To those replying to my post, please note the key word "USUALLY". It's very rare for someone's (Whole Family) to be dead. There are usually aunt's, uncle, cousins, neices, nephews that are still alive. Hence the term Whole Family.
These were the red flags: Charming. Tragic background story. Lovebombing. “Missing family.” Moving too fast. Too many gifts. Refusing to take no for an answer. Entered house and breaking boundaries made to seem innocent. Hoovering after initial breakups. Daughter “killed.” According to sister, he was “perfect.” Planting the pawn ticket (yes that was a planned manipulation, he guessed correctly that she would snoop in his wallet). Takes over finances-financial abuse. Don’t confront psychopaths. So glad she survived.
Most who love bomb are not devious/murderers. It's not taking no for an answer🚩, calling her after she said it was over🚩, and all the rest that are huge red flags.
And for God's sake once you find out he is the murderer you go back to that house for the night? At the very very least invite a friend over and say that they had nowhere else to go so they were going to spend the night.. my goodness sakes.
@@MayThereBeWorldPeace everyone who love bombs is devious. It is in fact a manipulation tactic used by psychopaths and narcissists, which are both cluster b disorders. There is no love in lovebombing.
I once read a book called The Sociopath Next Door, which was written by a psychologist. She said that it was hard to tell early on whether someone was sociopathic, but she said that if someone tries to gain your sympathy or pity early on, you should take notice.
She sees that he's on America's Most Wanted, she has feelings of evil vibes coming from him, finds out that he is using a false identity..... But she decides to confront him and needs more evidence. Uh, what's wrong with this picture?
She knew something was wrong but she went ahead and married him and put herself and her kids in danger. Awesome insight. This is some special kind of intelligence.
That was my FIRST thought, too! It was like DING DONG! Give the 2 social security numbers to America's most wanted and she would have had a confirmation if he was the killer!
Living in Utah, I wonder if she's Mormon. Having been born and raised til age 15 there, Mormon women are beyond sheltered and raised to NEVER question a man/husband. I think that played a huge role.
Many might think this lady is empathic but the reality is this is what codependency looks like. Codependency kills, sometimes slowly (putting up with an abuser and then u get heart disease or cancer from the stress) or it kills through a psychopath. This lady and her daughters are blessed to be alive, she ignored countless red flags. A good saying is "doubt your doubts." Blessings to all the single ladies out there trying to find "love." Love yourself first.
Yes! Somebody gets it. When you are raised with the ingrained idea that your job is to please everyone else and rate everyone else's opinion above your own, you teach yourself to override your instincts. Your feelings can't be right because you can't possibly be right. That would be betraying your built in pattern. So - it takes repeated and high level red flags to make you act. And even then you feel guilty for going against him. Abusers know one the moment they see one.
@taylorpresley4604 You said: "A good saying is: doubts your doubts". I really have to disagree. I'd say: "A good saying is: never doubt your doubts". Your doubts are your intuition. As women, we need to honour our intuition. It is there to protect us, not always from marrying a killer, but perhaps from getting involved with him in the first place.
As a mom I couldn’t fathom ignoring so much and letting this go on for so long before doing something. This woman is delusional she should have called the police as soon as she saw him on AMW. Honestly there’s no rationalizing her behavior that’s bad parenting. She’s lucky he didn’t harm the girls.
*UPDATE:* During his interview with "Charmed To Death," Sgt. Tim Bailey gave producers a shocking update: “I received a call from Paul Mack’s attorney, who represented him in California,” said Bailey. “And he told me that he wanted me, and he wanted, particularly, the family to know, that Paul Mack confessed to killing Annette Huddle before he died.” *Paul Mack died in prison in 2018. He was 75 years old.* Yay
She went to see him to tell him never to contact her again and to let him know that he didn't break her. You act like she wanted to see him because she was still connected to him or something. Were you listening?
@@donnaknudson7296you never have contact again with a person like this. She proved he mattered to her by going back. When you cut ties, you cut ties 💯.
Seriously cannot believe the police wanted to wait until the following morning before making an arrest when there was NOTHING stopping them from doing so the second he came home from work. That is complete lunacy
Agree. Surely there must be an emergency procedure for acquiring a warrant. If not there should be, like now. Letting this woman walk back into harms way, and leave her daughters in danger as well, was beyond irresponsible. Very lucky for them and of course for everyone concerned that they survived it. All of that drama caused by the police having to chase the guy down was beyond ridiculous. Could they not park their cars out of sight, ring the doorbell or knock normally on the door so as not to raise an alarm. Hopefully the police were willing to admit this to themselves after the fact.
Can't believe she kept living in this situation with her children in order to investigate further. How much information do you need to know that this guy is dangerously toxic?!?
@@yahniqueedwards231 Because she has absolutely NO common sense. Her daughter's description of her bravery is really a sad case of cognitive dissonance. Her mother made countless terrible decisions that just escalated with severity of situation. It was all too mindboggling to hear.
Breaking into someone's house is actually against the law. It's not just "weird," "something you don't do," or "something that makes me uncomfortable."
@Sugar Spring. Yes and what else might he have done whilst he was in the house. Put cameras, snoop through her, underwear drawer, photocopy documents and so on 😎 yikes!!!
I'm surprised she kept seeing him after he's broken into her house. A woman with three girls, and she marries a guy who breaks into her house? Um...Her kids don't seem to hate her, which is the real miracle here. She sure put them in harms way.
true. And even when she knew who he was, she went around "investigating" knowing she'd write a book later and sell her story to TV networks...rather than calling the police. It's a more exciting story to sell.
at the very least breaking into my house is stalking....at maybe a teenage you could be dumb enough to see it as romantic but as an adult you should see it as it is ...dangerous boundary crossing...
Her instincts were telling her all along that there was something wrong with that guy, she is very lucky she didn't get caught by him while investigating him and is alive
Instincts are everything! They are why we are alive. Those of our predecessors whose instincts were wrong didn't make it. When your antenna goes up, start paying attention!!!
I thought he wld grab her for hostage when the cops came for sure. It blows my mind that they wldnt just go to work and arrest him ! They put her life in danger sure enough !
@@lindavanocker1841 yes, I agree. The cops didn’t want to cut their bait. That’s terrible. They should have said get out of there! She could have been a statistic.
@@lindavanocker1841 exactly, having everything on hand, all evidence, the police decided to wait and put in danger one more woman. Why? Why they could not ask her to call him have a lunch,meeting etc and arrest him right away?
The fingerprints thing is exactly what she should have done when she saw him on the most wanted list on tv. She could have spared herself all the things she put herself through for those weeks. She's alive out of sheer dumb luck
@@sirmadam8183 You nailed it, she was attracted to danger and drama and victimhood. She deserved everything bad that happened to her, but I'm so angry on behalf of those innocent kids.
Im Sorry, but something is wrong with this lady. You have kids in your house but choose to play detective. Once you saw him on Americas most wanted, that should be enough reason to call the police as soon as possible!
Woman!! I can’t believe you went through all that instead of going to the police! I’m glad you and the girls are safe. Don’t ever take that kind of chance again! You’ll end up like his past individuals!🙏
I'm confused as to why she kept things going after he broke in and left workout attire in her home. Then she looks into his eyes and "all she saw was evil" and "felt more fear than ever"...and still married this man?! WTF? Was she THAT lonely? My god.
I thought the same thing!!! He kept giving her red flags and she KEPT ON IGNORING THEM. My God, trust your instinct. Why would you keep putting yourself and your daughters in danger? Silly.
She didn't trust her own feelings, is what the problem is, above all. Made her prone to believing him. Also, way too much empathy: empathy gone awry. The perfect victim.
Uuuugh...I hope she sold her home shortly afterwards and mived to a different address at least, and changed her contact info. That would have been my immediate response once he was gone.
Oh yeah, I had a relationship once when I was very young where he gave me tons of gifts, always brought me flowers, bought me expensive leather jackets. It was all very seductive and I fell for it. After a year of being together I found out he was a pathological liar and cheat. Always remember, if it seems to be good to be true, it is.
Heaven and Hell are real..... Is your heart right with God? We can not hide our sins from God. Jesus Christ loves you and He died for our sins. Repent of your sins and put your faith in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior and you will be saved. MARK 1:15 “ the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.” "Salvation Prayer" Dear Heavenly Father, I come to you, to confess that I am a sinner. I have done some things in my life that I am not proud of and I repent of my sins. I believe that Jesus died on the cross for my sins and that He arose from the grave and that He is alive today. I ask that you forgive me of my sins and come into my heart.... I proclaim that Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior. AMEN.....
This woman's decision making process can be seen in the first victim of every horror movie who simply has to investigate the situation even further. Why she did not call the cops the moment her daughters were missing and he would not tell her where they were and stop this silliness is beyond me. She is lucky she is alive.
she said he did not look like he guy on AMW -- I wonder how she saw that -- was there a rerun? She started snooping after he didn't tell her where her daughters were -- I think. If she'd turned him in for having two SSNs, would the police have acted immediately, arresting him and protecting her and her children? It would have been a long process while he'd be free to torment her even if he moved out. The one thing sure -- when you have children you have to know EVERYTHING about any new partner and they don't move in until completely vetted.
She's so desperate that it's hard to feel sympathetic for her. When he broke into the house she should have been done. It's her responsibility to protect her daughters.
For you to even just reply this as if she was looking for ur sympathy is just so... Idk.. if u able to run after the first red flag... I wish I had ur strength dayum
@@natalies4375 I have been a victim you have no idea…. Be careful who you are talking to because you never know who you are speaking to . I will leave it at that.
@@natalies4375 THIS is not a case of victim-shaming. Your comment is irrational. I'm a woman who had been through hell and know very well how evil partners (men and women for others) behave and there are many red flags that victims miss. This unsympathetic "Lifetime for Television" woman's decisions are ludicrous. Playing amateur sleuth and confronting him? 🤦♀️ All she had to do was send some discarded tissues, a used glass, ANYTHING to the authorities with a note that a friend thought that her new husband had a resemblance so here are some fingerprints on a glass he used. That's it! He was caught by fingerprints, FFS! If I was that woman's friend and thought that she couldn't, I would have paid a visit while he was out and picked those up. She could have snuck a peak/taken a picture of his driver's license, gotten info from HER bank about her own account co-signer. Putting him on her bank account at her age and with children is incomprehensible. Taking her to task for very specific decisions past a specific point is more than fair. The only extent of playing sleuth should have been just grabbing quick fingerprint and DNA. She didn't need a private investigator with a retainer with FBI/police at her disposal.
I was shocked that you let him take over your finances and had to ask him for money. That’s a big red flag and signing paperwork you haven’t read. I’m glad that you finally woke up and discovered what he really was. It’s not worth thinking of what he could have done to you and your daughters. I’m so glad you moved on with your lives. Thank you for sharing. 😘
I am so impatient with this victim. Doesn’t she have any common sense? Didn’t she have a gut feeling about this situation? How desperate can women be to ignore truth right in your face?
she's so ignorant she sleeps with him when she knows he's a serial killler. Why not make an excuse to go to your mother's house for the night or SOMETHING. She's probably the dumbest woman I've seen on any crime show. She's not a victim, that's for sure
@lilliansperlingmadsen4662 especially when it involves a master manipulator. They're very good at what they do and they always target vulnerable women.
She sounds like she’s full of lies. She also went and visited him in jail to tell him to leave them alone? Her victim playing is so unbelievable and infuriating I honestly don’t believe it. I was scared of him, so I married him. I was scared of him so I added him to all my bank accounts and never checked the paperwork. Sure, lady! She doesn’t take responsibility for any of her choices. He can’t just add himself to her bank accounts, but she phrases it that way to absolve herself of any accountability.
Exactly! What was she waiting for? the dead women to say he killed us? one comment said what a brave woman! I kept saying what a dumba$$ she risked all their lives or at best risked her daughters not having a mom. Too many chances!
I'm sitting here shaking my head in disbelief. Red flag after red flag, alarm bells ringing and she still confronts him instead of going to the police. Swallows a pill he gives her, goes back home after learning he's a murderer... god almighty.
I do believe this woman is totally out of her mind if what she said is true. No sound person would risk their life, much less her childrens in this situation!
So scary indeed, listening to this makes me more determined to stay single. She should have done all this detective work before she married him. The red flags were there from the beginning.Good thing that Justice was done 👍👍👍
Divorces a man she was 20 years married to because she got bored. Sees new husband on America's Most Wanted, learns he's a killer, but instead of calling the police and making sure her kids stay safe she plays detective for weeks, acts as if this killer wouldn't hurt them. What an idiot. She's blessed to be alive and that her kids were not harmed.
Back then we didn't have ANY technology like we do now - if you saw something on a *not remotely HD* tv you couldn't rewind or watch it again you had to hope for a re-run the next week. She said it DID NOT look like him on the show. So yes, she played detective. She also never once said she "got bored" of her first marriage, just that they married too young.
@@lyndseyfifield married young is code for i used my husband resources to make a business and when i got bored i file for divorce and get the rest of hubby's money. Huge red flag, This is why men do not wanna marry these days and if they do, they brand a prenup
Personally, I liked her playing detective because she was gathering evidence to put him away. She had information that made it certain he was locked up. Now, just move because he's going to find a way to get her killed. You saw it in his eyes and smirk at the end.
I cannot continue to watch this. I totally understand how difficult a situation this lady found herself in but she has three children, a business, a home of her own and all her senses are screaming at her that something is wrong. Bad enough that she married him but once she saw him on TV, why did she not make an anonymous call to the police. She was not only putting herself at risk whilst carrying out her investigations but her daughters were in the house with a murderer. Beyond belief!
Females like her don't get many chances with males like that. She deluded herself out of desperation. You don't even have to watch it in full to see she is "ditzy" in ways.
@@Tweetycew1 I looked this guy up and this story isn't how it really happened. Paul Mack was caught because a woman in Ohio recognized him on America's Most Wanted and then had seen the TV show about him being a chef at the restaurant. She called the tip line and told them he was in Salt Lake City. I'm sure this story is for her to "save face" about how naive she was. She was his 8th wife. The whole part about his capture is made up. She had nothing to do with it. Paul Mack died in prison in 2018 at the age of 75 so he never did get out.
@@djg5950so this story is completely made up about how he got caught. She is pathetic enough that she tried to save face and be the one that saved herself and her girls. So sad.
As women, we need to *stop* ignoring red flags. Edit: before commenting "men too," check out the thread-- it's been addressed many times & I meant what I said.
Women ned to stop believing in the BS that is Prince Charming. A large percentage of males are, at heart, not very nice people who easily put on masks, especially in front of women. After 7 decades on this earth, this is what I have seen, and at times experienced. I worked in a male dominated field back in the 80s while in my 20s. What an eye opener! Male partners overwhelmingly unalive their female partner, or to a lesser extent abuse them once they get that ring on her finger. It seems to be getting worse, every single day, there is at least one story of a male killing a female, whether his partner or a stranger. Better to just have a child or adopt a pet if you need to love something.
I’m having a hard time feeling sorry for her. Humans are given the ability to sense something is wrong and they are in danger. Wild animals don’t ignore these instincts. There is a book called The Gift of Fear. I would suggest everyone reading it.
I think she thought if she was a good person, she would be fine. It's common to think "like attracts like" and other myths. Also she seemed to uncritically feel like role definitions themselves define reality. Like when she said, I didn't want to lie to my husband, or he's my husband, so that's not him on the television. People do this about the word "family" also.
@butterbeanqueen8148, it's not really true that we can just feel when something is wrong. Our instincts can be wrong and we are not actually that good at detecting deception. You need more than just the fear response when a cunning manipulator is operating. It's best to investigate and get concrete, objective evidence. But she did ignore concrete evidence and she left herself and her kids open and vulnerable before she knew if she was safe.
By sharing her story this woman is helping countless women who can learn from her experience, and I thank her for that. We shouldn’t be hard on her for what she didn’t see. She wasn’t used to people so low.
She is't helping anyone, people who are as naive and blind to the obvious as she was won't be capable of learning anything from her experience as the will think they couldn't be that dumb
I’m glad she shared her story. Millions of women think and do what she did, and stay. Most women don’t survive or help catch a man they think they love, they end up dead. I’m glad her family is safe and he’s in prison. He needs to stay there until his last breath.
Im so sorry that you went theough all this. I understand having a gut feeling and talking myself out of it. We are all different and you dont know what youd do unless you were in that situation. So glad your safe.
I’m happy her and her children survived this. Some don’t live to tell the tell. My condolences to all those innocent peoples families. I’m sorry that in this world we have monsters living amongst us.
I love how smart this woman is, and how she does not ignore red flags over warm and fuzzy feelings and gifts. Everybody wants a loving relationship, but she didn’t let that overpower the safety of herself and kids. Like he really had to be creative to manipulate her, breaking down the wall and kept up the act for a good amount of time until she was stuck living with him and married
I'm sorry for her close encounter with this monster & I'm sorry that I seem cold for saying this, but enough with the fake crying big act of shame & sorrow, lady! I can't even finish watching this all the way through because I don't buy her presentation of supreme victimhood! She seems to take no accountability for the extreme danger she put (and kept) her daughters in, just to be with a "hot" guy. Yuck. 😑
There's just something 'off' with this woman. Wiping away tears that aren't there, enjoyed playing detective regardless of the danger she put her young daughters in & she enjoys telling this story. Her eyes almost beam with every recollection. I don't know if she just loves the drama or what🤷♀️ but very odd indeed🤔
This whole production was her attempt to rewrite history, put HER spin on it to cast herself in a more sympathetic light. She's attempting serious damage control. And failing. Like that estranged mother starting her own RUclips channel and proving to the world she's a toxic narcissist. 😆
Easy now. When one bn married young & for a long time. One naturally naive at a level that one looks back at with enormous embarrassment & regret. I commend her for having the courage to tell her cautionary tale. Im not suggesting you should feel sorry for her, but kicking her when she's down, or after the fact, knowing she's learned her lesson...youre advertising alot about YOUR OWN lack of good character.
If you don’t meet ONE SINGLE FAMILY member, a friend, ANYTHING…🚩🚩. If they want to marry you after a few weeks ? 🚩🚩If they BREAK INTO YOUR HOUSE WHILE YOU ARE DATING 🚩🚩 This woman is lucky her daughters survived. And weren’t victimized. Ladies & gentlemen. Please . Learn from these situations .
think twice when you are a 5 and a supposed 10 singles you out esp with 3 daughters. Short bangs, really,? Take off the rose colored glasses and use your brain.
wow her daughters was young and she didn't even think to call the police when her friend said guy looks like husband and you find 2 social security cards. what more evidence? She took to many chances!!!!
I’m on her side, but lawdy. Once you are in the territory of ‘2 dead peoples security cards’, ‘ hired p.i.’ , ’questioning where daughters are at’ this is the rule and I cannot stress this one enough: DO NOT EAT ANY OFFERED PILLS. PRETEND. SPIT THEM OUT. PRETEND TO PUKE AND FLUSH THEM. WHATEVER. DO NOT EAT THE PILLS. And get their name off of your bank accounts
It's pretty easy to forget that we have not been in a position like hers. I always HOPE that I would react in a way that is in keeping with how I view myself, but the bottom line is, I just have no idea what I would do or how I would behave unless I am in that exact situation with that exact history and back story.
@@helianabanes4875 I’ve been in a position like hers. Even when you are in this alternate sphere of crazy thoughts and shifting reality responses, do not eat the pills. If you listened to her keystones of personality- being strong for her daughters, hoping for a lovely life, being a good person, they reflect points of her self autonomy, and definitely her naïveté, which contributed to how far this situation got. Letting that autonomy go will create permanent damage in the harm we do to ourselves in the future, looking back on retrospection. Her justification of ‘I just wanted him to stop asking’ having already set up the cover of not feeling well should have made a very large flag of self preservation come up and she should have just gone with that. If she was concerned enough to play sick, do not take the offered unknown pills. This lady had strength I bet even she didn’t know she had, and that shone through after that horrific incident. In all the crazy, she would have shrunk back to her keystones, but ignored them. Sure maybe you can’t say what you would do, but from my personal experience, when everything was not right and upside down, being extremely vulnerable (I was underage) I didn’t know everything and made a ton of mistakes, but when the coercion to take something physically into myself that didn’t want to take, I found a way not to. This lady was grown. Even with extreme gullibility, do not eat the pills.
The thing with the daughters would have been enough to send me running. Maybe she should work for the police as an undercover agent. As for the pill, I was thinking it could be cyanide. It could have been anything. I would have spit that out.
Didn't happen that way. She was surprised as he was when he was arrested. She wasn't the reason for it so she didn't sleep with him knowing that he was going to be arrested the next morning.
@@jdstep97 I agree with you. This woman was lonely and desperate for a relationship - a man. She was very attracted to him. She did not want to believe he was a murderer but I think deep down, she knew he was. She played with fire there; it could have all gone very wrong - for her and her daughters. She did get him arrested though. Was he out of jail in 2015?
This is why people need to step back and not pressure people to "just get out there and date". This is why you should always listen to your instincts. And above all, if you have loved ones like children, and you go through something horrible, they don't take everything from you. They don't get the power over you forever. And if it comes down to it, be prepared to run, hide or fight.
She's a lucky fool. Three daughters, he's on America's Most Wanted for murder and she's literally playing games. If she wanted to know who he was, ask the police, they seem to know. She was really playing games.
She'd probably be dead and her children if she had handled it any other way. BTW, people are living in domestic abuse situations every day. Unless you are in one, you have no say in what anyone else should do.
@@catserver8577I agree. She is incredibly brave, in my eyes. She is the reason he is behind bars. The cops and commenters all act so dismissively towards her, like what??
@@adrienneschugren9790 look, it's a simple glass with finger prints that helped to match him. She could have quickly fetched a glass to the police after the AMW.
Good on her for doing something. A lot of people would have just turned a blind eye and pretended they didn’t know anything. Good for her for doing something and not letting him get away with it
After my divorce, I ventured out to meet people( at the insistence of friends) . I met a guy one night who told me he was a widower, and I asked what his dead wife’s name and the date of car accident. He did, I didn’t give him my number, he gave me his , said I would call, went home and immediately research his story. I didn’t find anything on the “ accident” where he said his wife died, so I never called him . A few month later , a coworker met him at the same nightclub and she started dating him. Turns out he was married , no job , and had several girlfriends who would give him money. My coworker stopped seeing him after a few months abd $$$ , and supposedly she exposed him on Facebook. Btw.. I don’t have any social media. Idk what happen to him, but I dodged that bullet.
I’m divorced with once kid. No way I’m dating until he is on his own. Taking my age to the account, I’ll die alone , but I rather be lonely than risk safety of my kid. This story is extreme but they’re a freaks out there. Good guys are married….
@@Fedeleness thank God my mom remarried. I love my mom more than anyone in the world, but my stepdad was a better parent to me than anyone else could have been. Even if I didn’t really like him at first lol.
He did not ruin her, she allowed it. First step in these dangerous relationships is acknowledging your part regardless of being trauma bonded, codependent, naive, etc., etc. That is how you finally accept yourself and your decisions. There is no closure.
Wow.. playing with fire is an under statement. Risked her and her children's lives. Clearly Margie doesn't watch crime/murder documentaries, but all the red flags were there. Our ' instincts' are there for a reason, to warn us of impending danger etc, take heed of these instincts they've saved many people's lives. Margie and her daughters are lucky to be alive. Be safe.
She threw her 1st husband back into the pond so quickly & easily without much justification or reasoning, yet was so desperate & lonely within just 1 year's time after that to then find, hook up with, & marry a serial killer. WoW
That was my thought, after only a year?! My baby daddy moved women in after the first day and then there was the next then the next and the next. Some people never heal or take responsibility for their actions. Self righteous & sick! I was desperate and ignored the red flags. Me and my daughter have suffered greatly at his hands. Still he takes no responsibility!
@@janelbullock9141 She was married to her first husband for 20 years. A lot of the "facts' in this version of it aren't true. Didn't happen the way she claims it did.
I get what you meant. She is brave but also the first signs are so obvious. I am like, are you destined to meet this guy so you will be the hero to get him caught. maybe it is destined so you can also save other women. and also part of me was like, hmmm he breaks into her house!
It’s difficult to sympathize with this woman because she placed her daughters in tremendous danger while ignoring sky-high red flags. My God, I thought I was naive!
Sometimes I get really lonely, but when I see stuff like this I’m cured. 😳
Get a dog that helps massively with loneliness and they're very good at telling you who's a good person and who's not.

When the private investigator told her the social security cards belong to 2 deceased people, that would have been enough for me.
Yes me too
But, he had said his wife and kid had died. And she’s way smarter than other women in similar cases. Her gut was on point. She also took her time getting to know him. Not like she married him right away. Took her over a year.

As soon as he refused to tell her where her kids were, that should've been it. Over. Right there
Exactly!!!
It was! She sent her kids away and got him!
Yep! I would have called the police as soon as he wouldn't tell me where my children were.
Absolutely!
she knew it was time to be strong for her kids?????
It is amazing to me that she did not get murdered. I never yelled at the tv so much.
Yep. I wanted to put my hands through the screen and give her a good, good, loving shaking.
😂😂😂 seriously!
This woman wanted to be killed stg!
Me too ! I kept shouting: why are u so dumb af?
@@Campfire30 see that’s what my biggest problem was. U can b a dumb ass on your own time but when you have kids.., you’re responsible for their welfare. I wouldn’t even let that man near my dogs (bc he’s sketch and I’m not that big of an idiot and don’t play helpless victim)

Her intuition is actually really strong, she just wasn't good at listening to it.
Nailed it! That's why I actually really like stories like these being told because it helps people, women in particular, to realize how important it is to listen to your gut the FIRST time it tells you somethings off.
Lack of knowledge. It was in the 80' when everybody was partying.
I disagree wholeheartedly. She's as dumb as a box of rocks.
It’s not even intuition, there was so much literally in front of her and she was just choosing to ignore it.
She was very naive and believed everything he said to her. Ignorance is bliss...
When someone says their whole family is dead, that usually is a red flag.
EDIT: To those replying to my post, please note the key word "USUALLY". It's very rare for someone's (Whole Family) to be dead. There are usually aunt's, uncle, cousins, neices, nephews that are still alive. Hence the term Whole Family.
unless it's true
@ASAMB12 I'm 50, and I have yet to meet ANYONE whose entire family is dead.
@@tanekaday8680 good point LOL!
I absolutely agree.
There are unfortunate people who have no families. E.g. orphans @@tanekaday8680
These were the red flags: Charming. Tragic background story. Lovebombing. “Missing family.” Moving too fast. Too many gifts. Refusing to take no for an answer. Entered house and breaking boundaries made to seem innocent. Hoovering after initial breakups. Daughter “killed.” According to sister, he was “perfect.” Planting the pawn ticket (yes that was a planned manipulation, he guessed correctly that she would snoop in his wallet). Takes over finances-financial abuse. Don’t confront psychopaths. So glad she survived.
Most who love bomb are not devious/murderers. It's not taking no for an answer🚩, calling her after she said it was over🚩, and all the rest that are huge red flags.
And for God's sake once you find out he is the murderer you go back to that house for the night? At the very very least invite a friend over and say that they had nowhere else to go so they were going to spend the night.. my goodness sakes.
@@MayThereBeWorldPeace everyone who love bombs is devious. It is in fact a manipulation tactic used by psychopaths and narcissists, which are both cluster b disorders. There is no love in lovebombing.
I once read a book called The Sociopath Next Door, which was written by a psychologist. She said that it was hard to tell early on whether someone was sociopathic, but she said that if someone tries to gain your sympathy or pity early on, you should take notice.
Absolutely nailed every red flag that could be nailed.
Why didn’t she just go to police after the Americas most wanted? She risked her life and her children’s with all the investigating.
She's was hoping it wasn't true
He was not that simmilar. If he was the friend would call cops.
What mother puts their child in harm’s way so she could investigate further? You’re not Nancy Drew. Ugh.
Love is blind. Have you been so in love and found out he cheated? Devestating. Serial killer? No can’t be.. too nice. Men are always lying.
She doesn't know it's funds to move from things like this but I think she may of like it for a min because who just sit there and see that
She sees that he's on America's Most Wanted, she has feelings of evil vibes coming from him, finds out that he is using a false identity.....
But she decides to confront him and needs more evidence.
Uh, what's wrong with this picture?

She’s very lucky her daughters survived her time playing detective instead of calling Americas Most Wanted when it aired.
@pamelaleigh Yes! You are absolutely correct! I still don't get her reasoning putting those kids in danger that way. 😎
And who knows, there might have a big reward for him, that she would have received if she called immediately
@@anglofrancaiseyvonne9349 Great point!
EXACTLY!
That was my FIRST thought, too! It was like DING DONG! Give the 2 social security numbers to America's most wanted and she would have had a confirmation if he was the killer!
Living in Utah, I wonder if she's Mormon. Having been born and raised til age 15 there, Mormon women are beyond sheltered and raised to NEVER question a man/husband. I think that played a huge role.
If that's true, then why did she ditch the first one?
Yes I am sure she is.
Many might think this lady is empathic but the reality is this is what codependency looks like. Codependency kills, sometimes slowly (putting up with an abuser and then u get heart disease or cancer from the stress) or it kills through a psychopath. This lady and her daughters are blessed to be alive, she ignored countless red flags. A good saying is "doubt your doubts." Blessings to all the single ladies out there trying to find "love." Love yourself first.
Yes! Somebody gets it. When you are raised with the ingrained idea that your job is to please everyone else and rate everyone else's opinion above your own, you teach yourself to override your instincts. Your feelings can't be right because you can't possibly be right. That would be betraying your built in pattern. So - it takes repeated and high level red flags to make you act. And even then you feel guilty for going against him. Abusers know one the moment they see one.
You mean don’t doubt your doubts.
@@G.G.8GG yep! a predator knows its prey!!
@taylorpresley4604
You said: "A good saying is: doubts your doubts". I really have to disagree. I'd say: "A good saying is: never doubt your doubts". Your doubts are your intuition. As women, we need to honour our intuition. It is there to protect us, not always from marrying a killer, but perhaps from getting involved with him in the first place.
It's severe codependency
As a mom I couldn’t fathom ignoring so much and letting this go on for so long before doing something. This woman is delusional she should have called the police as soon as she saw him on AMW. Honestly there’s no rationalizing her behavior that’s bad parenting. She’s lucky he didn’t harm the girls.

*UPDATE:* During his interview with "Charmed To Death," Sgt. Tim Bailey gave producers a shocking update:
“I received a call from Paul Mack’s attorney, who represented him in California,” said Bailey. “And he told me that he wanted me, and he wanted, particularly, the family to know, that Paul Mack confessed to killing Annette Huddle before he died.”
*Paul Mack died in prison in 2018. He was 75 years old.* Yay

Thank you for update.

Thank You for this update it should be pinned to the top of the comments.
Well of course he did, he didnt need to confess for me to know!! But, Thanks for others!
She went to SEE HIM IN JAIL?? What is wrong with this woman?
She went to see him to tell him never to contact her again and to let him know that he didn't break her. You act like she wanted to see him because she was still connected to him or something. Were you listening?
@@donnaknudson7296you never have contact again with a person like this. She proved he mattered to her by going back. When you cut ties, you cut ties 💯.
Put ourself in her shoes.before we judge.😢
If someone hasn't broken you, you typically don't have to advertise it. If you do, then you are probably still in invested in the situation.
She needed closure
Seriously cannot believe the police wanted to wait until the following morning before making an arrest when there was NOTHING stopping them from doing so the second he came home from work.
That is complete lunacy
I know !!! 😳

A judge might the reason the police had to wait until morning. I don't know.
That's what I was thinking. It's madness. What a risk to take with 4 innocent lives.
Agree. Surely there must be an emergency procedure for acquiring a warrant. If not there should be, like now. Letting this woman walk back into harms way, and leave her daughters in danger as well, was beyond irresponsible. Very lucky for them and of course for everyone concerned that they survived it. All of that drama caused by the police having to chase the guy down was beyond ridiculous. Could they not park their cars out of sight, ring the doorbell or knock normally on the door so as not to raise an alarm. Hopefully the police were willing to admit this to themselves after the fact.
Can't believe she kept living in this situation with her children in order to investigate further. How much information do you need to know that this guy is dangerously toxic?!?
Well her first clue was him breaking into her home
Sometimes u play fool toget to the bottom if I show signs u Cld be next and gone
And why did she continue to alert him if her findings?😑
@@yahniqueedwards231 Because she has absolutely NO common sense. Her daughter's description of her bravery is really a sad case of cognitive dissonance. Her mother made countless terrible decisions that just escalated with severity of situation. It was all too mindboggling to hear.
I am mad as hell with her for keeping her kids in that much danger.
Breaking into someone's house is actually against the law. It's not just "weird," "something you don't do," or "something that makes me uncomfortable."
Lol
@Sugar Spring. Yes and what else might he have done whilst he was in the house. Put cameras, snoop through her, underwear drawer, photocopy documents and so on 😎 yikes!!!
I'm a lil uncomfortable with you breaking into my house.. let's go watch a movie in the dark so I can deal with what you didn't mean to do
@@IsraelWillBeFree Hilarious and correct!
I'm surprised she kept seeing him after he's broken into her house. A woman with three girls, and she marries a guy who breaks into her house? Um...Her kids don't seem to hate her, which is the real miracle here. She sure put them in harms way.
They did a great job with the reenactment of the story!
He broke into her house and she still married him!!?? Incredible! Shame on her for putting her own wants above protecting her daughters.
true. And even when she knew who he was, she went around "investigating" knowing she'd write a book later and sell her story to TV networks...rather than calling the police. It's a more exciting story to sell.
This story sounds fake. I can’t imagine a woman being this naive.
Some women are just lonely and will marry any man that shows interest. She should have called police after seeing him in tv but she chose not to.
at the very least breaking into my house is stalking....at maybe a teenage you could be dumb enough to see it as romantic but as an adult you should see it as it is ...dangerous boundary crossing...
Insanity
Her instincts were telling her all along that there was something wrong with that guy, she is very lucky she didn't get caught by him while investigating him and is alive
Instincts are everything! They are why we are alive. Those of our predecessors whose instincts were wrong didn't make it. When your antenna goes up, start paying attention!!!

Also, it sounds like she was under pressure to be in a relationship?
Sadly a lot of people seem to need a relationship to be happy
I thought the same thing!!! He kept giving her red flags and she KEPT ON IGNORING THEM. My God, trust your instinct. Why would you keep putting yourself and your daughters in danger? Silly.
She didn't trust her own feelings, is what the problem is, above all. Made her prone to believing him. Also, way too much empathy: empathy gone awry. The perfect victim.

Uuuugh...I hope she sold her home shortly afterwards and mived to a different address at least, and changed her contact info. That would have been my immediate response once he was gone.
This woman made every poor decision she could possibly make. She put her children in danger so she could go play detective.

I proclaim that Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior. AMEN.....
This woman's decision making process can be seen in the first victim of every horror movie who simply has to investigate the situation even further. Why she did not call the cops the moment her daughters were missing and he would not tell her where they were and stop this silliness is beyond me. She is lucky she is alive.
she said he did not look like he guy on AMW -- I wonder how she saw that -- was there a rerun? She started snooping after he didn't tell her where her daughters were -- I think. If she'd turned him in for having two SSNs, would the police have acted immediately, arresting him and protecting her and her children? It would have been a long process while he'd be free to torment her even if he moved out. The one thing sure -- when you have children you have to know EVERYTHING about any new partner and they don't move in until completely vetted.
Margie is desperate for a man to play her a fool
The police let her go back home and spend the night with the murderer? The lady and the police are definitely not geniuses.
She's so desperate that it's hard to feel sympathetic for her. When he broke into the house she should have been done. It's her responsibility to protect her daughters.
But he didn’t steal anything. He just left gifts. It’s kinda romantic!

Putting him on her bank account at her age and with children is incomprehensible. Taking her to task for very specific decisions past a specific point is more than fair.

As women, we need to *stop* ignoring red flags. Edit: before commenting "men too," check out the thread-- it's been addressed many times & I meant what I said.
Women ned to stop believing in the BS that is Prince Charming. A large percentage of males are, at heart, not very nice people who easily put on masks, especially in front of women. After 7 decades on this earth, this is what I have seen, and at times experienced. I worked in a male dominated field back in the 80s while in my 20s. What an eye opener! Male partners overwhelmingly unalive their female partner, or to a lesser extent abuse them once they get that ring on her finger. It seems to be getting worse, every single day, there is at least one story of a male killing a female, whether his partner or a stranger. Better to just have a child or adopt a pet if you need to love something.

@@keryljensen978 it really is. I recommend it for everyone. It should be required reading!
People call her naive. That's such a kind way of putting it.
I think she thought if she was a good person, she would be fine. It's common to think "like attracts like" and other myths. Also she seemed to uncritically feel like role definitions themselves define reality. Like when she said, I didn't want to lie to my husband, or he's my husband, so that's not him on the television. People do this about the word "family" also.
@butterbeanqueen8148, it's not really true that we can just feel when something is wrong. Our instincts can be wrong and we are not actually that good at detecting deception. You need more than just the fear response when a cunning manipulator is operating. It's best to investigate and get concrete, objective evidence. But she did ignore concrete evidence and she left herself and her kids open and vulnerable before she knew if she was safe.
By sharing her story this woman is helping countless women who can learn from her experience, and I thank her for that. We shouldn’t be hard on her for what she didn’t see. She wasn’t used to people so low.
Oh, but trust me, they won't.
She even said she saw the issues and kept dating him haha
Yes indeed she is helping a lot
She is't helping anyone, people who are as naive and blind to the obvious as she was won't be capable of learning anything from her experience as the will think they couldn't be that dumb
Oh, you think these people would learn?
I’m glad she shared her story. Millions of women think and do what she did, and stay. Most women don’t survive or help catch a man they think they love, they end up dead. I’m glad her family is safe and he’s in prison. He needs to stay there until his last breath.
She’s on the spectrum.
Are you suggesting that most women are this dumb and this lacking in accountability?
@ Unfortunately, yes.
@@adamrandall5163 I’m not sure why you would interpret my comment as that 😂 I was very clear in what I said. You don’t sound too bright kid.
@@Katiee0592 brighter than her by orders of magnitude and I failed high school.
Im so sorry that you went theough all this. I understand having a gut feeling and talking myself out of it. We are all different and you dont know what youd do unless you were in that situation. So glad your safe.
That’s not bravery. That’s just stupidity! Can’t believe she’s on here telling it as if she was a hero. Omg!
Putting all her children in danger 😢
Seriously I seen no bravery just stupidity
I agree with you
I'd be embarrassed to let people know I was that gullible
Desperate woman
She would take him back
Ugh
I’m happy her and her children survived this. Some don’t live to tell the tell. My condolences to all those innocent peoples families. I’m sorry that in this world we have monsters living amongst us.
Tha stepfather
@@robogreek3157 huh?
There’s something seriously wrong with this mother! Who takes chances like that with young Children in the home??
YOU.
Exactly right . Seriously wrong!
Far too many now days. Blind too desire.
Not only that I got sick of her trying to wipe away invisible tears like this was so upsetting recounting the story.
Nothing wrong with her, love can blind you, marriage being the eye opener
I love how smart this woman is, and how she does not ignore red flags over warm and fuzzy feelings and gifts. Everybody wants a loving relationship, but she didn’t let that overpower the safety of herself and kids. Like he really had to be creative to manipulate her, breaking down the wall and kept up the act for a good amount of time until she was stuck living with him and married
😂
lol she's quite the opposite!!!
You forgot the “/s”
She's wiping away tears that aren't there.
This is so feminine 😆
I thought the same!
I'm sorry for her close encounter with this monster & I'm sorry that I seem cold for saying this, but enough with the fake crying big act of shame & sorrow, lady! I can't even finish watching this all the way through because I don't buy her presentation of supreme victimhood! She seems to take no accountability for the extreme danger she put (and kept) her daughters in, just to be with a "hot" guy. Yuck. 😑
There's just something 'off' with this woman. Wiping away tears that aren't there, enjoyed playing detective regardless of the danger she put her young daughters in & she enjoys telling this story. Her eyes almost beam with every recollection. I don't know if she just loves the drama or what🤷♀️ but very odd indeed🤔
This whole production was her attempt to rewrite history, put HER spin on it to cast herself in a more sympathetic light. She's attempting serious damage control. And failing. Like that estranged mother starting her own RUclips channel and proving to the world she's a toxic narcissist. 😆
She was shocked a murdered robbed her. The level of delusion and denial is beyond with this woman.
It's definitely hard to feel sorry for her!
@@monicaavalos9312 Utah
thats what happens when someone is desperate for a man...she is just as sick as he is
Easy now. When one bn married young & for a long time. One naturally naive at a level that one looks back at with enormous embarrassment & regret. I commend her for having the courage to tell her cautionary tale. Im not suggesting you should feel sorry for her, but kicking her when she's down, or after the fact, knowing she's learned her lesson...youre advertising alot about YOUR OWN lack of good character.
She was desperate and pathetic. I couldn't even feel sorry for her.
If you don’t meet ONE SINGLE FAMILY member, a friend, ANYTHING…🚩🚩. If they want to marry you after a few weeks ? 🚩🚩If they BREAK INTO YOUR HOUSE WHILE YOU ARE DATING 🚩🚩 This woman is lucky her daughters survived. And weren’t victimized. Ladies & gentlemen. Please . Learn from these situations .
What the hell she went to the jail…there is something seriously wrong with that woman…why didn’t the police hide in her house that last night??
Yes, learning is the whole point of videos like this. 🙆♀️
10:27 And you STILL MARRIED HIM???!!! 😳🤦
Right?
Definitely liked the adrenaline of seeing a walking 🚩
think twice when you are a 5 and a supposed 10 singles you out esp with 3 daughters. Short bangs, really,? Take off the rose colored glasses and use your brain.
wow her daughters was young and she didn't even think to call the police when her friend said guy looks like husband and you find 2 social security cards. what more evidence? She took to many chances!!!!
And why didn’t her so called friend call the hotline?
I’m on her side, but lawdy. Once you are in the territory of ‘2 dead peoples security cards’, ‘ hired p.i.’ , ’questioning where daughters are at’ this is the rule and I cannot stress this one enough: DO NOT EAT ANY OFFERED PILLS. PRETEND. SPIT THEM OUT. PRETEND TO PUKE AND FLUSH THEM. WHATEVER. DO NOT EAT THE PILLS.
And get their name off of your bank accounts
It's pretty easy to forget that we have not been in a position like hers. I always HOPE that I would react in a way that is in keeping with how I view myself, but the bottom line is, I just have no idea what I would do or how I would behave unless I am in that exact situation with that exact history and back story.
@@helianabanes4875 I’ve been in a position like hers. Even when you are in this alternate sphere of crazy thoughts and shifting reality responses, do not eat the pills. If you listened to her keystones of personality- being strong for her daughters, hoping for a lovely life, being a good person, they reflect points of her self autonomy, and definitely her naïveté, which contributed to how far this situation got. Letting that autonomy go will create permanent damage in the harm we do to ourselves in the future, looking back on retrospection. Her justification of ‘I just wanted him to stop asking’ having already set up the cover of not feeling well should have made a very large flag of self preservation come up and she should have just gone with that. If she was concerned enough to play sick, do not take the offered unknown pills. This lady had strength I bet even she didn’t know she had, and that shone through after that horrific incident. In all the crazy, she would have shrunk back to her keystones, but ignored them. Sure maybe you can’t say what you would do, but from my personal experience, when everything was not right and upside down, being extremely vulnerable (I was underage) I didn’t know everything and made a ton of mistakes, but when the coercion to take something physically into myself that didn’t want to take, I found a way not to. This lady was grown. Even with extreme gullibility, do not eat the pills.
@@moskie325 hate that you have been through something similar, happy you made it through!
@Moskie. I agree with you! I'm astounded when people tell me they have joint bank accounts! It's just craziness and I'd never do it!😎
The thing with the daughters would have been enough to send me running. Maybe she should work for the police as an undercover agent.
As for the pill, I was thinking it could be cyanide. It could have been anything. I would have spit that out.
The police tell her he’s wanted for 2 murders and she goes back to spend the night with him at home with her 3 daughters? Unbelievable 😳
She got the daughters out of the house
The cops dropped the ball bigtime.
She's so dumb! Unbelievable!!
She sent the daughters away but still. I think she knew he would run and maybe come back!
Didn't happen that way. She was surprised as he was when he was arrested. She wasn't the reason for it so she didn't sleep with him knowing that he was going to be arrested the next morning.
One bad decision after another.
It’s women like this that give the rest of us a bad name. As the daughter said ‘ my mums a hopeless romantic’.
That daughter misspelled "an idiot desperate for a relationship."
This woman has rocks for brains.
If she has that much.
Rock for brains?
Nope.
She’s insane, I think.
But I could be wrong and you may be right.
I still say she was desperate. And maybe he was that good a lover.
Lol 🤣
@@jdstep97 I agree with you. This woman was lonely and desperate for a relationship - a man. She was very attracted to him. She did not want to believe he was a murderer but I think deep down, she knew he was. She played with fire there; it could have all gone very wrong - for her and her daughters. She did get him arrested though. Was he out of jail in 2015?
Cops ‘Take your girls and leave, we will arrest him in the morning’
Wife ‘No, let me put myself in danger one more time, its kinda my thing’ 🤦🏻♀️
😂😂😂
😂😂😂
😂
Fantastic!
right? get a hotel room somewhere and put a false name on the room for one night
This is why people need to step back and not pressure people to "just get out there and date". This is why you should always listen to your instincts. And above all, if you have loved ones like children, and you go through something horrible, they don't take everything from you. They don't get the power over you forever. And if it comes down to it, be prepared to run, hide or fight.
She's a lucky fool. Three daughters, he's on America's Most Wanted for murder and she's literally playing games. If she wanted to know who he was, ask the police, they seem to know. She was really playing games.
And police would have told her without 1500$ deposit 😂
She'd probably be dead and her children if she had handled it any other way. BTW, people are living in domestic abuse situations every day. Unless you are in one, you have no say in what anyone else should do.
@@catserver8577I agree. She is incredibly brave, in my eyes. She is the reason he is behind bars. The cops and commenters all act so dismissively towards her, like what??
I thought the same, like ma'am , he was on Americas Most Wanted.
@@adrienneschugren9790 look, it's a simple glass with finger prints that helped to match him. She could have quickly fetched a glass to the police after the AMW.
She took way too many risks... she's fortunate to be alive
Very lucky to be Alive, how could she sleep next to a monster like this?
Aussie here, is she for real???
.
The unnecessary risks that this lady took makes me think that she’s the luckiest person in this planet
It must have been the s*x.
And the dumbest ...
Good on her for doing something. A lot of people would have just turned a blind eye and pretended they didn’t know anything. Good for her for doing something and not letting him get away with it
The comments are so satisfying. This was a frustrating watch.
After my divorce, I ventured out to meet people( at the insistence of friends) . I met a guy one night who told me he was a widower, and I asked what his dead wife’s name and the date of car accident. He did, I didn’t give him my number, he gave me his , said I would call, went home and immediately research his story. I didn’t find anything on the “ accident” where he said his wife died, so I never called him . A few month later , a coworker met him at the same nightclub and she started dating him. Turns out he was married , no job , and had several girlfriends who would give him money. My coworker stopped seeing him after a few months abd $$$ , and supposedly she exposed him on Facebook. Btw.. I don’t have any social media. Idk what happen to him, but I dodged that bullet.
I have 5 kids 2 girls and 3 boys if I ever get divorced God forbid I would never bring a man into my home. I am glad she survived this!
I’m divorced with once kid. No way I’m dating until he is on his own. Taking my age to the account, I’ll die alone , but I rather be lonely than risk safety of my kid. This story is extreme but they’re a freaks out there. Good guys are married….
@@TheMaryAnn75 As a parent, your one of the Number 1's.
@@Fedeleness thank God my mom remarried. I love my mom more than anyone in the world, but my stepdad was a better parent to me than anyone else could have been. Even if I didn’t really like him at first lol.
It’s about using your head over your heart, taking it slow, listening to feedback from friends and family and your own gut.
I had 2 wonderful Step Dads, there are some good ones out there.
He did not ruin her, she allowed it. First step in these dangerous relationships is acknowledging your part regardless of being trauma bonded, codependent, naive, etc., etc. That is how you finally accept yourself and your decisions. There is no closure.
Wow.. playing with fire is an under statement. Risked her and her children's lives. Clearly Margie doesn't watch crime/murder documentaries, but all the red flags were there. Our ' instincts' are there for a reason, to warn us of impending danger etc, take heed of these instincts they've saved many people's lives. Margie and her daughters are lucky to be alive. Be safe.
Margie was focused on making money out of selling her story. Still blinded by money.
She threw her 1st husband back into the pond so quickly & easily without much justification or reasoning, yet was so desperate & lonely within just 1 year's time after that to then find, hook up with, & marry a serial killer. WoW
Evil woman right?
That was my thought, after only a year?! My baby daddy moved women in after the first day and then there was the next then the next and the next. Some people never heal or take responsibility for their actions. Self righteous & sick! I was desperate and ignored the red flags. Me and my daughter have suffered greatly at his hands. Still he takes no responsibility!
@@janelbullock9141 She was married to her first husband for 20 years. A lot of the "facts' in this version of it aren't true. Didn't happen the way she claims it did.
@@djg5950so she cheated on her husband of 20 years with this guy?
He was on the America Most wanted but the Police wanted to wait until the next day to get him?????
Strategy😂
@@Mws556😅
That IS SCARY… The police are more disturbing than she is any day!!!!👎
That's right, instead of HER sitting in that chair waiting for him to come home it should have been the police or FBI waiting for him to step in.
They wanted to get a warrant.
A remarkable story.What a smart and courageous lady.God bless her
I would be ashamed to share on Tv what an irresponsable mother I had been.
I’m sure she was paid handsomely!
Although you’re illiterate
I thought I was gullible but this lovely lady wins hands down!
I’m sorry but there is a fine line between I feel bad for her and wtf is wrong with you , I’m glad her kids are safe .
I get what you meant. She is brave but also the first signs are so obvious. I am like, are you destined to meet this guy so you will be the hero to get him caught. maybe it is destined so you can also save other women. and also part of me was like, hmmm he breaks into her house!
Exactly
There's always red flags we choose to overlook them..use to that is.
I'm speechless...how many clues did this women need?
Ik
Exactly
My thoughts too... he's too pushy and controlling.
Clues dont work with no brain
I think she couldn’t believe it.
Oh God she seems so passive and reluctant to take any form of action against him especially when having 3 daughters 🙆🏻♀️
dumb, dumber. and dumbest
Because it’s normal not to want to be alone and risk losing your man!!!
It’s difficult to sympathize with this woman because she placed her daughters in tremendous danger while ignoring sky-high red flags. My God, I thought I was naive!
No sympathy for her her friend knew it was him on americas most wanted
She was smart enough to know that the police would not protect her.
She needed proof!
She could hardly have handled things more stupidly.
Lol, yes she is beyond nàiive!.
She is like that woman in horror movies opens everything she should not supposed to instead of running away.
