They sell cheesecake. The place could be covered with black velvet Elvis posters and Thomas Kinkade paintings and I would still go there.

Uhh, Steve? I think there is an adage about stones and glass houses that applies to you here...

I think that losing the letter is so unforgivable for the police department.

This was SO GOOD. I want Abbie & Gemma to have their own detective show a la Cagney & Lacey.

It had to be. Why else was it mailed after she went missing and why else would the police (some of whom colluded with the pedophile priests) “lose” it? I know Cathy’s father was well-intentioned, but the man was very naive thinking it was best to turn the letter over to the police without at least looking at it first.

I think there may have been something in the letter about Koob and their relationship. (Maybe something about his proposal or maybe her missed period.) And maybe that’s why the cops were very insistent on keeping Koob a suspect.

didn’t they say it was postmarked after she disappeared though? I wonder if someone forced her to write something, or else she gave it to her roommate to mail if something happened to her.

That argument of doing it for attention or money is the most bizarre to me. Let’s accuse someone of rape for that sweet sweet rape fame. The things people do to discredit victims and protect rapists never ceases to amaze/horrify me.

MMMbop is not a a timeless piece of art either...

This documentary is a difficult watch. But what I took away from it and choose to focus on are these incredible women. I’m in awe of every single one of them especially Abbie, Gemma, Jane Doe, and Jane Roe. Their strength, resilience, bravery, determination, I can go on and on. Remarkable people.

I was so struck by Jean’s retelling of what happened to her. It was so matter-of-fact but so painful and sad at the same time. Some of the details really haunt me, I can’t imagine how she must have felt. It takes an incredibly brave woman to speak out like this.

Curious, does anyone who watched it have an opinion on the “vagina” scene? Do you think that really happened?

I look forward to that thread all year, and each year, I start wishing we had it going a little earlier. Like now.

I’m ready for the supernatural story thread that Jezebel posts every Hallloween. Please feel free to share any good ones you may have to satiate my need :-)

If I was single, I’d jump right in there. Survive for longer than the other nannies, get enough material for a book/film deal and cash out.

So on the surface it sleep apnea seems like a strange ruling, but it makes perfect sense. First of all, many outlets reported that she had a heart attack when she had a cardiac arrest. Cardiac arrest is an issue caused by irregular heartbeat (vs blockage). Sleep apnea can cause a lack of oxygen which can overwork the…

Maybe it’s my deep-seated hatred of organized religion per my upbringing, but Nick Gordon’s current GF comparing their relationship to his with Bobbi Kristina’s and then saying “Only the Grace of God saved me” annoys the crap out of me. I think the fact that his mother was in the house with them and she was able to…

Enduring a night at the sleep clinic was miserable (i actually had to do it twice). I nicknamed the technician “The Sleep Nazi” because of his attitude-likely caused by frustration with my near complete inability to sleep. It was worth it, however, to learn that I don’t actually sleep, so much as I lay in bed and doze…

I really hope we’re able print out the entire internet and put it in a vault so one day the aliens can fully grasp how much we deserved our demise.
