I love when the killers find out the victim changed the beneficiary.. Hee hee . 😮😊

[Roy-wof]

It is sad when you try to help people but they won't listen....

[dae]

This is one situation where EVERYONE tried to step in n help the victim. Friends, family, even doctors n detectives. Her own denial n desperation got her killed

[ZintleMgwelo]

Linda was too naive for a 40 something year old. I’m so sorry to speak ill of the dead but you can have all the beauty and money and lack of self love. She loved another person more than she loved herself.

"Wasn't the most handsome man, he was very short, didn't have much to work with."
She did not hold back:)

[melanindescendants]

“ he didn’t have much to work with” made me chuckle honestly. She should’ve divorced him the second he mentioned a life insurance that high

[HAIRHOLIC_]

Linda is the prime example of “ You can’t save someone that doesn’t want to be saved ”

[jamesl]

Married one month and he wants a $1 million dollar insurance policy?! No way !!
Red flag 🚩!!
And then she starts getting sick

[Marthamutsa]

I can't wrap it up in my mind how some people think money is worthy more than someone's life .Rest in peace Linda

[Jezebellum-lu]

You'd think the hospitals would have done a full toxicology report while she was ill ...

[AndrewLewis-kspk]

“He didn’t have much to work with”
that’s what she said 😂

[jenniferjamison]

The first time she was a victim; the second time she was a volunteer. 🤦‍♀️

[TieraOwens]

Lord, let me never be that desperate for "love" that I blatantly ignore the signs and the red and crimson flags! 🥴

[Damy]

One thing about narcissists is that they truly believe they are the smartest person in the room.! 😂

[MashaRistova]

If only Linda knew how lucky she was to have so many genuine, real, good friends who cared about her so much. The deep denial she was in must’ve been SO frustrating for them

[nikos]

Its really weird that no charges were made to anyone for the tampered IV.

[JudeNance]

I was so dumb that I got married at 17 and divorced at 35 and never did that again. I am 84 years old now. I don't miss the abuse, lies and cheating.

[KK-olov]

Sometimes intelligent people can be so dumb.

[irenegaltung]

You're a great friend to Linda. And your kind words at the end of the video: "I'll see her again."

[vonpfrentsch]

He loves me because he makes a bubble bath for me? Ha?
