TW self harm

(Anonymous) 2020-12-19 03:59 am (UTC)(link)
True crime freaks me out but I read crime news stories and I've seen a couple good docs. The HBO series I Love You Now Die is about that girl who encouraged her bf to commit suicide. It was pretty interesting because I followed that case in the news but there were facets to it that were totally unclear in the stories I read. Mommy Dead and Dearest is interesting because it's complex, as well. The abuse Gypsy went through was horrific but she was already planning on running away. She didn't need her boyfriend to murder her mother. It was exhausting to watch.

DA

I saw that I Love You Now Die documentary, too! I wasn't too familiar with that story outside whatever brief mentions of it had popped up in the news, but yeah, it was quite an interesting, detailed look into a horrifically sad story. I remember there were a couple people being interviewed for the documentary, one a magazine writer, the other a doctor, who had some particularly good insight into the case and the issues involved, and how it all fit into a broader societal context.

I haven't seen the other documentary you mention, but I am familiar with that Gypsy Blanchard case, 'cause it's been covered in so many outlets, and it's just...absolutely wild. The thing I still can't wrap my head around is how they were able to get past so many doctors and nurses with their scam for so long.
