@@christineribone9351 you know what? i wasn't thinking about that her movies are all about her getting dumped getting cheated fighting with husbands.....lol not a family person
@@fredrezfield1629 Her movies are not all about getting dumped. I have seen two of hers. One is titled "Kate's Secret". And I can't remember the title of the other one, but I will. She is a fantastic actress. If I read that she stars in a movie, I know it will be a good one. I haven't seen all of her movies yet, but I will.
I believe she sought after the money, the husband could've been anyone that "owed")owed her Her husband was meant to bring home 'her" pay for all the years she suffered taking care of their children & keeping the household running She had a boyfriend at this point. She perceived her ex husband had" won" everything at her expense.- she couldn't let go of that - or wouldn't which is my personal opinion...it's a horrible story
Can hardly believe your comment & you've every right to have it - this wasn't about a man - this was about money, pure greed & narcasissom... How do we explain her refusal to have any of the kids under her roof unless there was a finsancial settlement involved.....
@@MuseLaBet Oh please! The minute these two began engaging in fighting at the expense of their children's well-being, they were both equally responsible for whatever happened after that. What crappy, selfish parents! Their father not only cheated but only thought about what he wanted when he then jumped into another marriage while their children were living in turmoil, being bounced around like inanimate objects because it was all about what HE wanted and what his crappy wife WANTED! Crappy parents!
@@tonysangster7383 A woman will give up everything in life to give everything to their home. The so-called money and greed theory is likely incorrect. Wives rejected after investing their whole existence to a marriage, and traded for a young, easy tart, who incidentally will take all of the other one's achievements by simply spreading the honey, will use whatever tool is at their disposal to remain relevant. Yes, not the right approach, but do not simplify the deep wounds inflicted on discarded older wives. It is enough to drive them mad. The horny pair gambled badly.
Despite being bitter she should have considered the wellbeing of her kids, as a mother you can endure everything so long as your kids are happy....I blame her for all this and at the end she was so unremorseful..I pity the kids they are the victims here.
Agree. What Betty's supporters don't get is that she took two lives, ruined 4 lives (children)all because she wanted revenge out of jealousy! Everyone keeps saying, it was self defense? Its not self defense when two ppl are sleeping! If she couldn't see because it was too dark, how was she able to shoot Linda 2X, Dan once, and walk over to his side of the bed, take the phone away, mash his hand, and yank the phone out of the wall, all in darkness? She's a psychopath!! Dan was an asshole, Linda was a slut puppy but they didn't deserve to die!
She won’t be eligible for parole till 2032. She’ll be about 85. I feel bad for her children. Because of their mothers choices, they had to grow up without either one of their parents. So sad.
@@StrngAzDiamnds huh! there dad didn't kill any1... she took both parents away from her own children! the dad married sum1 and moved on... happens all the time.... u don't kill sum1s father! don't b disgusting
ty for being sum hope for women! I mean reading all these comments is very disheartening ... I just can't believe women are this weak or this bitter that they justify leaving children parentless bcuz a man left them! crazy
She kept saying “he took my children.” No, she even admitted to dropping them off to him one by one so he would know what it was like to have to take care of them. She wanted them back when she realized it didn’t bother him. If she was so smart, she should have realized she set a dangerous precedent.
she went too far and became obsessed. She was a victim of her own making.Why couldn't she have just leaned on Jerry and got on with her life? Not sorry for her She lied over and over, and gullibles believed her.
and people are pinning this on the husband. Its not her fault she got hurt, the but its her responsibility to heal! she gave in to it, that part is all on her.
Meredith was "Betty Broderick" what an actress. She deserved an Oscar for her performance. I think this movie was entertaining but did not follow exactly what happened. Dan and Linda were no angels. They did a lot of disgusting things to Betty. Yes, Dan and Linda were dating before they separated. Dan continued to tell her she was imagining things that were not happening, when in fact they were. After they separated, Linda would send ads for anti-aging cream to Betty in the mail saying she needed this badly. It is true, Dan did buy a house for Betty after the divorce but the house was in his name only, not hers. And she had to pay part of the mortgage with the money he gave her each month. He also did add fines if she would call and say something he didn't like and then deduct it from the monthly allowance he gave her. The oldest daughter was written out of her fathers will, and she did not know it until after his death. She did not live with her father because Linda and she did not get along. I have not only seen the movies but read a couple of books and they included court transcripts. Linda had a history of going after other men that had money. She worked as a flight attendant but was fired for having sex in the lavatory with a passenger. I'm not saying what Betty did was right, murder is never the answer. But I can understand why she felt like no one was on her side. She lost all the friends she had for all those years because they did not want to see her after her and Dan separated because they were still friends with him. She felt like she lost everything. She devoted her life to supporting him, first through medical school, then law school. She worked to support the family so he didn't have to worry about working at all. I can understand why she felt used. And I know that the right thing to do was to take the alimony he paid her which was like $14,000 per month and live her life and be happy. It is a sad situation for their children to loose both parents. They are the true victims in all of this.
@@hanhkelley369it depends on what you read. I also read a book and watched the netflix miniseries. There are discrepancies. A complicated relationship!
@@heidirourke2259 she shouldnt and wasnt worth it…. But u r missing very important point of non existing yet law. He abused her emotionally for years. Simple words like „ you are fat, u r worthless” on daily abuse did more then u can only imagine. You people have to study some law or psychology to understand, otherwise stop talking narrow. We are not only talking about death, gun, killing the abuser…, we should Also talk about other side , about victims. Unfortunately law is narrow too.
I love the lawyer❤ when he said about Dan„ HE TOOK THEIR LIFE” and showing Betty’s picture” HE TURNED HER FROM THIS TO THIS” ❤ great lawyer. People dont realise how beauty is so important for women. And obviously the most important is health.
She is really cold blooded and sure didn't mind taking all his money which showed he still cared for her .she should never ever be released from prison for life ,she didn't even care for her children by taking away their dad.they can't change a nartictic person
Meredith played a spot on role as she deserves an Oscar! Betty and I can say this with confidence growing up with a family of 16 as a narcissistic mother she was bat shit crazy she wanted to control Dan and when she lost control she went nuts. It almost happened to me when I divorced my husband but I am confident why I did as I was more of a “house manager” as before I knew him a high profile Broker for almost 3 decades and all that was taken away. So was I mad when I filed yes I was because I lost apart of me that I was given “false promises” to and now just coming back!!! I feel for Betty but this is all in her for now moving along…!
The story of Betty is so tragic...VEry tragic indeed! I do understand what she suffered for from her ex Husband.,...she was treated wrong...at the end..she got no friends..even her family turned their backs from her...Linda was also a family breaker...whom to be balmed for this... yes..human nature.....she was so jealous because they took her life...they broke her ehart...it is wrong what she di..Murdering these two who broke her heart.... May God forgive her..How I wish to have known Betty personally....as a friend..so to give her love..thats what she needed for...Love and acceptance!!!!
A narcissist doesn’t know how to be a friend. Remember, one lady tried to stay by Betty’s side and be a friend. When the friend gave her good advice, Betty kicked her out of her life because it wasn’t what Betty wanted to hear. Betty ruined her children’s lives for the sake of revenge… Narcissistic people are dangerous and destructive.
She had love and acceptance! She is the one that broke her family up by her actions., in the first movie, you saw how ungrateful she was nothing was ever good enough, and she acted like a little brat. So it was really her fault that her family fell apart. Her husband couldn’t take it anymore and I don’t blame him for walking out. I don’t know what people are talking about in these comments, oh poor Betty give me a break she was a nutcase. She was a narcissist. She needed mental attention and needed to be in a psych ward. That’s how I see it now I’m gonna watch part two which should be interesting. Considering part one was a real mindblower. Who drives their car into somebody’s house really?
@@tinar.a.3542exactly!!! Sucks to loose a man you love but she didn’t love him she loved the life and the money! This is not difficult to say but she didn’t even love her own children as both parents are GONE!!!
I'm team Betty all the way, but she should've listened to the advice her friend gave her in the first part, she did have a lot going for her and she needed to move on.
ur insane if ur ok with what she did! she left 4 kids by themselves! no money and struggling! they were all separated from eachother after this... and u sit here and condone that!

@@isaiahcupil1214 He don’t share in the blame of the killing. That was her choice, and what did she achieve? A life in jail and crap life for her kids , Selfish and wrong.
There is many types of murders and murderers…, betty was a victim of emotional abuse, which is the worst type of abuse, but people stil underestimate this type of abuse…, she was also a victim of ractive abuse composed with blame shifting. There should be more law for abusive, NPD cheaters ( they are very calm, cunning, and so charming for strangers but not for the loved ones)
She dropped her kids off one by one at Dan's house. A really loving mother right!!! She wanted more money. She wanted to keep living in the same lifestyle that she had, and Dan did buy her that beautiful house, gave her a generous amount of money each month, paid for the kids needs etc. She enjoyed the spoils of his labour for many many years. She was used to that, and didn't want to alter her life at all. At one point in the movie it said that she wanted more money, well Betty, you didn't get anything now did you. You should have taken the very generous offer from Dan, and lived a great lifestyle, and carried on with your life.
That it what she should have done, it would most certainly be enough for me to get on with my life. But on the other hand she couldn't accept that she was the foundation for his wealth, by working many years she provided for him to make his dream possible. Also the rejection issue, he just replaced her with younger version. Sure over the years she developed bad reach woman attitude, they all do. Her problem was she couldn't let go,bitterness took over. This is such a tricky one for me,usually it is much easier to take a side.
I’ve been in Dan & Linda’s shoes dealing with an ex-wife and you have no idea how disruptive and horrible and exhausting it is. You try to deal with it one on one and it just makes her mad, so you get lawyers involved and that just makes her madder then you end up having to call the cops because of her behavior and then that makes her even madder. Then there are the check-ins at the psych ward. You cannot win. I’ve been there. I know this… it’s not over until they have nothing else to fight for. Fortunately in my situation when the kids aged out of custody/support her fighting, screaming, cussing and physical assaults stopped. Dan & Betty weren’t in love with one another. They hadn’t been for a long time. Dan went about it the wrong way. He should have told Betty he wasn’t in love with her & left before Linda came into the picture. The marriage was over before Dan met Linda. But I don’t think it would have mattered. She still would have flipped out. Betty was in love with the idea of the marriage she wanted… not Dan. All the acting out was for an emotional reaction from Dan because any emotion from him, even negative was what she craved. She knew once the custody and settlement fight was done so was her fight with Dan…. she didn’t know how to function without fighting with Dan. Dan lied, then he was honest, he tried being nice, he tried being mean, he tried ignoring her .. all got the same histrionic reaction from Betty. She was never going to stop. She couldn’t. She’s right where she belongs and I believe she’d rather stay right when she is for the rest of her life as long as Daniel and Linda are dead. Period. 🤷🏼♀️
@@JackieOlantern stop blaming innocent women who ve been a victims…, who ve been a good mothers and wifes! stop supporting men, who supposed to pay the price for lying, cheating, selling wifes goods, making them crazy, and more. Thats the problem with most women up there. Woman blamed women, how ridiculous is this. Thats why men will never stop abusing women. Whoever u r, i wish u Well, but abuser are always abusers. Sadly, still , there is No Law for cheaters. Every cheater should go to jail, no matter what. 90% of them are men. Unfortunately. Many women i know went sick, mad, angry, crazy just because of cheaters! Cheating on someone is very dangerous when comes to health issues. In what way? Depression my Dear hits hard for most people. Most of them end up with NEW LOOK: isolated, sick, trauma, angry, frustrated, alone, bedriden, with MS, rheumatoid arthritis, and finaly cancer. No joke. This NEW LOOK Its called NEW PERSON. you can only imagine how crazy difficult is that. No words and no law ? I mean wtf! These betrayed people are sick, Ptsd, traumatic forever. I hope you understand what i am trying to say…, this is not a joke. Betty went to far, personally i wouldnt kill men, just because none of them is worth it my attention. I am not feminist, but i know victims who are very sick after cheating, they cant walk anymore, they cant work or dream anymore. Cheaters supposed say that they are not interested anymore in wife( husband) and they should leave for good with dignity and respect. But not selling wifes house, car, jewlery Ot trying to take kids always from them. Cheaters are weak people. Cheaters supposed learn how to leave with respect for everybody. In this movie the husband is most cunning manipulator, horrible father. Any good father wouldnt dare to take always kids from the mother. Kids are damaged by this father too. Just think how much ONE FAKER can do to the whole family. Just think, this man destroyed the whole family, not just Betty. Do you think kids are stupid? Do you think they love him for that? Once they adults, this will be not easy for him. Not easy for kids, the most important…, but did he think how much damage he done? No, NO FAKING WAY. This man is great example of NPD, HE IS PSYCHOPATH HIMSELF. And the most sad is that innocent wife, who went crazy, thanks to this evil man is in jail. For her hard work she done, she was the one who end up in jail. Just because she couldnt take anymore. He abused her for years. I am sure she regret, but Hello, now you see what type of abuse she went through? How much human can take. If he only would say „ i am leaving you, and i want us to be good parents together, and still love you , and lets split our money fairly.” But this evil was playing with her mind, time, money and more…, like i said, there is no law for cheaters. Cheating should be consider by lawyers more seriosuly. Cheating is not just cheating! Cheating Its a Damage to many peoples lifes. Kids, etc. Cheating is not a joke. Its a simple thing to say it , not cheat it. Men wants have all. And stupid, naive women give them all. If not a wife, then mistress. Women should be the ones who should fight for this new law. You see in this movie there is my fav part, when in the court her lawyer showed Betty how elegant she used to look when they met, and how old, depressed she end up, just because he was telling her regularly how fat, ugly she was. If you know a little psychology or law( i know both) you would know how these simple words so powerful.i met many women, who end up truly ugly, just becasue they belived in those words.They used to be succesful and beautiful, and just because they met this wrong man, they end up this way.Its so sad to see who they become. They are almost disable. Yes. Imagine what i am trying to say. People dont realise how much simple words like „ you are fat, worthless” can do to your mind. Some of these women i met used to have businesses. Now they pray not to end up with cancer. Not many people know this awful stages of abuse. But i do. And the most horrifying thing is that this law supposed to be there for ages, and still not there. You Wonder why? Ha. Men are more clever then women…, Its not handy law, i belive. Men abuse women on daily basis. This law would damage men, for the change. But is this going to happen? Maybe one day. In my country i do everything to make this happen, but lets see. Cheating is a very serious matter when comes to victims health. And ask yourself, what is most important in your life? HEALTH. you cant buy „ cancer free life”. I hope you understand more now. Wish u Well.
Dan was a cunning weasel. Betty was an entitled, ungrateful socialite with a bone to pick. Linda was an opportunistic gold-digger on a mission to seal the deal. A delightful bunch, no doubt.
As in silence of the lambs, in her warped mind this was the only way to stop the lambs from screaming. She confessed that 1st night in prison after the atrocity was the best night's sleep she ever had, the murders completely released her from the head hell she was living, day in day out 😢
I’m not going to apologize but this woman was selfish taking away both parents from 4 beautiful intelligent children. I get all the reasons why she did it but to kill peopie because she feels demeaned and not wanted anymore she should’ve accepted. Dan is a jerk BIGTIME she knew what she was marrying she loved the good life and didn’t accept when sadly that I’ll say it sucks to NOT want to be wanted it’s the worst feeling but killing sorry no excuse!!!! RIP to Dan and Linda
1:18:00 In this part of the movie they're talking about Betty being a narcissist. Nowadays, and even this year, the word 'scapegoat' was the Word Of The Year for Merriam Webster dictionary, meaning that was the word that was looked up the most, of all other words. I'm soooo glad we are talking about narcissism now. Is a SHAME this part of the movie wasn't HEAVILY highlighted, Or Focused on back in the early 90s.
Will someone please explain to me why people are on team Betty and feel sorry for her when she murdered her ex husband the father of her children and his wife? I understand he wasn't the perfect husband but that doesn't give her the right to end his life does it?
Imagine if you'd given the best years of your life to build a partnership, worked to support your husband while he built his career, promised "til death do we part". Then one day, you're 40 and he trades you in for a much younger model. He takes everything from you, your children, your social circle, he controls the money. You're left with nothing, not even friends and kids. Your whole world has been taken away from you. He stabbed her in the back (metaphorically speaking, used her, screwed her over). Some women start from scratch, recover as best they can. Some women suicide. Betty chose a bad option. He and his new wife weren't worth the cost of the bullets.
I feel that yes she broke the law by killing them but I dont think she deserves to be in prison the rest of her life. She worked 5 jobs to support him while he was in college and he traded her in for a younger model when he finally made it. I feel sorry for her.
So because she worked five jobs while in college ,it justifies taking people's lives ?did you miss the part where she literally pushed her husband into another woman's arms by being a nagging shrew and acting like a bizzare nightmare ?
i understand her bitterness to a point she helped him get to where he was but she should of got him financially because her actions cost her her kids and their priceless and after all these years she still angry
She did not 'help' him get to where he is it was his parents that supported him. This is why it is a fictionalized movie for a murderess that hired a PR firm rather than an attorney. She would chase the kids and him with a butchers knife while he was still with her. She was the abuser in the relationship and had a number of affairs on him as well. After she dumped the kids on him they chose to remain with him because he was stable where she threatened to kill them also. The actual case shows the monster she was. Any of her work, was just spending $ for her. Not a nice person at all.
They didn't deserve to die, but they really pushed her past the breaking point. This movie doesn't accurately depict the true story. She supported him through his education, she raised their kids and he traded her in for a younger woman.
Agree 👍🏽 Betty Broderick did NOT have the Authority to Take anyone’s life. Only the True God is the GIVER of life, but because we aLL SIN, we aLL Suffer the pangs of death. ROMANS 5:12 reads “…. through ONE Man (Adam) Sin entered into the world and DEATH through Sin, and so Death spread to ALL MEN because they had ALL Sinned”. As for the Movie not Accurately depicting the “true story”, I DISAGREE. It most certainly did Touch on the Fact that Betty was definitely Instrumental to her husband’s Success. However, the movie aLso left me with the impression that Betty Broderick was a DIFFICULT WOMAN to get along with, that she was Self-Centered, Entitled and desperately TRIED to have things go her way most, if not ALL, of the time. Was she deserving of her husband’s Betrayal and being unceremoniously DUMPED and traded in for a younger wife? Indeed she was NOT DESERVING of being Shat on 💩 and treated in such a callous way. But if EVERY mistreated and maltreated wife were to take on the Mindset to UNALIVE their trash can of a husband for abusing and MISHANDLING their heart, indeed the world would be a much scarier place in which to live.
They should have started before the murders to show how she got this angry. Dan did things to her to upset her and unfortunately, this was the end result.
No, she was a school dropped-out and was fired at an airline! Dan went for her youth a good looks! She was NO angel! She went after Dan at the Irish party!
I totally agree! She was a fortune seeker and that night of the Irish party she went there, because she knew Dan would be there!!!! She used her charm and looks to catch his eye!!!!
Thank you for mentioning her. More should be said about her immorality, seems all saw her as lovely and nice,maby she was but she was still a marriage crusher.
I got a bad thing about the Linda gal. She was young , and allegedly a beau, but what did she had to take on a married guy with 4 kids? Of course, milllions were involved, what you talking about LA JOLLA , beach views? in my bloo**dy opinon, no symphathy for the Linda devil.
Absolutely, she should not have taken true lives, because of a failed relationship but this wasn't an ordinary relationship, this was marital vows and he was wrong for the way he treated her and handle the whole, and I am a male and I have compassion for what this woman went through
@@isaiahcupil1214 yes I went through a divorce was hurt terribly,, I didn't put my ex husband through school and made him who was ,,, I lost everything in the divorce, my home my children,, the cars we were not rich but a vehicle is a car ,, I left the situation with the clothes on my back my three children in tow ,, the minute I felt my life was in danger ,, I left before he or I killed each other my ex was a predator,,, and he was cheating on me with the neighbor,, she lived two doors down,,, and he married her after we divorced she divorced my ex she found out he wasn't her ex husband went back to him ,,, I left but I can see where she felt betrayed, humiliated and so much more but I wasn't going to prison for my ex husband he wasn't worth it ,, I clearly could have been Betty,, but had more control of my emotions and feelings,,
poor kids they are the real victims low life father an an unstable mother everyone goes through these problems but she selfish chose to put her anger infront of them now one parent is dead and other in jail!!!!
Betty Broderick was a woman scorned no doubt and Dan and Linda weren't saints themselves and they pushed Betty to brink and she had no choice. I side with Betty and she was crazy but she had a reason for it.
I am for her ex-husband. Betty is an entitled and spoiled woman . She had it all but gave him no appreciation. No person deserves to be married to a spoiled, unappreciative spouse. She should not have killed her former spouse. It’s women like Betty who I have little sympathy for. Betty is wrong. Team Ex husband all the way!
Finally, a voice of reason amidst a sea of ridiculous comments calling her a victim. Dan and Linda are dead, the children may never recover, she is so selfish.
Finally someone with common sense!!! these comments are crazy. How anyone could stick up for the ex-husband is beyond me. He gave her everything and all she did was put him down was ungrateful and I could go on and on but I won’t. Thank you for your comment.
damn wealthy people don't have any emotion these kids just lost their father ? they just went on with their lives like nothing happened they appeared on opera show they were smiling and giggling what is wrong the older daughter all she could say to her mother go turn yourself in? ??
Those that Murder are not the only ones we should fear. We should fear the ones that push people to murder too. People are so naive & self-righteous, truly believing someone can't be pushed to a breaking point, but they can and have, since the beginning of time. The problem is, we have a system built to hold a murderer accountable but no system in place to hold those accountable who push people past their breaking points. The cycle keeps going, crime gets bolder and worse, people continue to act more irrational & selfishly, so nothing changes. Why? Because you can't use surface level resolutions to fix deeply rooted problems. The wife was not the only issue. The husband and the mistress were as well.
Women like u dont realise that being cold blooded person was him first…, then her. And just becasue she hold the gun doesnt mean she was worst. He killed her inner peace and health and beauty and kids and more. If men would simply leave with dignity and respect the story would be different.
poor woman I feel so bad for her Linda ruined this family and so is her husband! people talking about what she did is wrong What about them?! they took everything from her ans kids took his side of course because he had the money. No one can’t know what one might do in this situation if they pushed that far. She should be free !
ur insane! ppl cheat everyday... this man actually married her.... he fell in love with her! I went thru this as a man... my BM cheated, lied , took friends , took everything... can I shoot her? cuz under ur logic I should get ur sympathy!
The facst in the case are wortha google for real. Look up lindas life before this . I m not going to speak ill pf the dead here ... so go see for yourselves if you re interested. Betty truly seems ot have lost it yep but dan was treating her horribly as well , only his way was quieter . No innocents here beside sthe children for sure
I think Betty could’ve made better choices and decisions than she did. She had the power she didn’t know how to handle it I don’t think murder was the answer .
I felt sorry for Betty, she should have went on with her life with Jerry and the kids. And let Dan and Linda have each other. They were no saints themselves and pushed and pushed Betty, he took everything away from her she put him through school but it was a learning experience and she deserved better than Dan! I truly think the woman lost all perspective of reality. Not Making her actions right. Even her friends so called friends turned on her. The saddest part were the children in all this.Their were no adults in this entire situation everyone played a part, no one seemed to do the right thing or try. And then Dan even left one of his children out of his will for getting in trouble and drugs after ever thing these parents put these kids through you wouldn’t think the children or a child would act out! That showed how easily Dan could just discard a person.Betty’s oldest daughter wrote a book and wrote a letter to the patrol board not to release her own mother! The other 3 children still go see their mother and stay in contact and wrote letters for their mothers release to the parole board the middle daughter even said Betty could live with her family. One thing I believe Betty loved her children! I think Betty should have been released she served her time.
I think at this point, she needs to be freed from prison. Other murders have not spent nearly this much time, though I think that’s awful. For gosh sakes, I’ve even let the Manson killers out or I mean some of them.
Truly a sad situation and I also knew killing was a sin ,, so didn't kill my ex husband for that reason what he did to me,, I should have for what he did to me and my kids he destroyed me,, and their lives ,, but I'm not his judge and jury, I'll let him get his hand dealt to him when he dies ,,, sad truly a sad story,,,
I don’t foresee her being paroled anytime soon. I don’t think she has ever accepted responsibility for her actions. It is my personal opinion that she didn’t care if he remarried. She just cared about losing her social status.
22:59 compassionate? How? yes I bet she smiled when she piss(((ed BetsY, .. smile? cracked a a laughter!! the other woman ... always cracks in laughter!!
Linda's only goal in life was to snag a rich husband.Thats why she was a stewardess first,but that plan failed when she got fired (God only knows why)but from my understanding it was for improper behavior.
She has already applied for parole, won't admit what she's done and probably won't get out until 2032 is what I've seen so far. She'll be close to 85 by that time.
You know Betty Broderick was a mess and out of control and she had problems with her family but to have everyone know what you did and she shot Dan and Linda and she was angry b/c the pushed her over the edge and everyone in San Diego was talking about this case even had this thing called "BE NICE TO YOUR EX WIFE WEEK!" I feel sorry for those kids they suffered the most and everyone strangers were talking about them and making fun of them too. It was so unbearable and unreal and those kids had everything and then lost everything all b/c of two selfish people thinking only of themselves and not the kids. Betty Broderick is in prison and is denial of what happened and Linda and Dan are dead. Betty Broderick was on Deadly Women ID Discovery.
ty... as a man I wanna ty for this comment ✌️ reading way 2 many women not thinking abwoman is strong enuff to control they feelings or deal with a man leaving them...
@@shoptalk7415 I am a female and I think this woman is insane. Yes your hurt. But you simply cannot force someone to be with you. Killing him and his new wife? Your fucking crazy. Yes he was a narcissist. Yes you felt alone. But guess what? Your children are also now alone because you couldn’t continue to have it your way. Again. She’s insane.
I don't know the real story ( didn't watch documentaries etc) so just from this movie portrait, watching part one and now two- was disgusted with husband actions ( eyeing young women in Irish party) then spending with her whole day on his bday, that was clear betrayal move - middle age crisis with younger, desirable woman and women desiring status and money, disregarding mother of his children who equally was responsible for their success, status and family...but I was equally disgusted with her fury actions of destroying things, putting her rage in from of children - proving she's more concerned for herself then them - then Linda was clear asshole - I have no sympathy for women who destroy families - married man- stay away - simple. So three of them were very flawed, unlikeable characters really and only real victims here are children caught up in the middle of this triangle madness....my heart goes out to them ❤
PartLy i agree with u, but i could never understand women like u who blamed mistresses😂. Remeber men would go and always go for another woman. Men are the one who u should blame. Remeber men will find any woman, if i wouldnt like to date Dań, then maybe you would date him. Remeber he was looking for his mistress, No other way. 😂think DEEPER sometimes.
@@MuseLaBet oh... well, not really ( in my view) I wont take someone else's property just because it's easily available, I wont steal a thing and I wont reach for someone else's spouse just because they might be tempted, vulnerable, goin' through tough times or just be prone to this sort of behaviour...its just wrong, end off, and woman who respect herself - should never build her life on misery of others, betray other women trust ( in sisterhood) , like a thief and a house wrecker, But I guess everyone have different standards of morality or none, and some women like to blame man for everything...each to their own.
@@karolinaszczudlo9871 u r not for real, can tell. Deep thinking is a luxury today. And i never force women like u to think DEEPER, cos u dont get it. Many women like u dont get it, and thats the problem. U didnt stretched ur brain enough. Thats why men do what they want. I am so sad that women like u stil exists in 2024. Maybe u r older generation, who ve been told how to behave vurnerably in front of men. Maybe u like this thing. Maybe u r people pleaser, or just too polite. How can u be so blind that this man Dan destroyed the whole family? How can u stay on his side? Whats wrong with u? Cant u see that this man and any cheater can destroy not just one person( his wife) but her, kids, mistress and grandkids and parents of them, friendships.., whats wrong with women like u?
@@karolinaszczudlo9871 and u r talking about womens morality here? R u talking about his mistress? Her morality? Hehehe. What about his morality? This man was like a dog who ve lost his chain! And found his mistress. Dont blame his mistress. Cos this dog ve lost his chain and he would find another bitch! Dont u get it the depth of that? Dont u get that this man would destroy his family anyways? With another woman…, Whats wrong with u? Stop blaming mistresses! Just stop! Start to blame men for cheating and maybe one day our daughters wouldnt be abuse that much. Do u think cheating is just cheating? Whats behind cheating? Do u know psychology of that? Too deep to think? The most important is our health. After cheating nobody is the same anymore. Thats the first thing. Most of people are going sick. What way? Depression, isolation, shame, lonliness, low self esteem, No motivation, anger, and finally in many cases they losing their beauty, self esteem, they dont know who they are anymore, MS, rheumatoid arthretis, cancer or even suicide. Now, i hope u understand what cheating can do to many. If u dont blame a cheater, but u blame mistress then u r out of ur mind.
@@karolinaszczudlo9871 and let me tell u this story, story about naive, stupid women…. , one of my friend she is police oficer. She had one case when cheater strangled his mistress almost to death. They arrested him for 24h. After few days he had to come back to police station and give another raport to police. Guess who came with him? His wife to support him! Lol. What kind of stupid woman she was. My question is, do u think that this man love his wife? Do u think that this man will never cheat again with another victims? Ofcos he will. Lol. This wife has poor boundries, she doesnt love herself, she dont respect herself, she is brainwashed! But still supported him. Hehe. Women like her or maybe urself are so so self destructive. No self respect, nothing, No personality. And again, men knows this, and thats why they are cheaters forever. If we women dont change our vurnability, they will cheat forever. If the law dont change about cheating then there is No future for women, Nah. Thanks to women like his wife, we are the victims forever.
WHAT ? WHY ? She refuses to take responsibility, she still plays the victim. NO she should never be out, she could easily kill again if someone got in her way
Rshin a way I felt sorry for better they way Dan shit on her!! But she should have just walked away .what she did was stupid! She had everything going for her but chose to kill ! She didn't only destroy her life she destroyed her kids lives! It was selfish on her part!!!

her movies are all about her getting dumped getting cheated fighting with husbands.....lol
not a family person
@@fredrezfield1629 True. Except there was that family sit com with Michael J. Fox where she was a mom.
@@fredrezfield1629 Her movies are not all about getting dumped. I have seen two of hers. One is titled "Kate's Secret". And I can't remember the title of the other one, but I will. She is a fantastic actress. If I read that she stars in a movie, I know it will be a good one. I haven't seen all of her movies yet, but I will.
Ladies, Let Betty’s story be a lesson. Never seek your validation through a man.
I believe she sought after the money, the husband could've been anyone that "owed")owed her
Her husband was meant to bring home 'her" pay for all the years she suffered taking care of their children & keeping the household running She had a boyfriend at this point. She perceived her ex husband had" won" everything at her expense.- she couldn't let go of that - or wouldn't which is my personal opinion...it's a horrible story
Can hardly believe your comment & you've every right to have it - this wasn't about a man - this was about money, pure greed & narcasissom... How do we explain her refusal to have any of the kids under her roof unless there was a finsancial settlement involved.....
Did she have a boyfriend?@@tonysangster7383
@@MuseLaBet Oh please! The minute these two began engaging in fighting at the expense of their children's well-being, they were both equally responsible for whatever happened after that. What crappy, selfish parents!
Their father not only cheated but only thought about what he wanted when he then jumped into another marriage while their children were living in turmoil, being bounced around like inanimate objects because it was all about what HE wanted and what his crappy wife WANTED! Crappy parents!
@@tonysangster7383 A woman will give up everything in life to give everything to their home. The so-called money and greed theory is likely incorrect. Wives rejected after investing their whole existence to a marriage, and traded for a young, easy tart, who incidentally will take all of the other one's achievements by simply spreading the honey, will use whatever tool is at their disposal to remain relevant. Yes, not the right approach, but do not simplify the deep wounds inflicted on discarded older wives. It is enough to drive them mad. The horny pair gambled badly.
Despite being bitter she should have considered the wellbeing of her kids, as a mother you can endure everything so long as your kids are happy....I blame her for all this and at the end she was so unremorseful..I pity the kids they are the victims here.
Did you see Betty boyfriend when went to kill Dan and Linda?
Agree.
What Betty's supporters don't get is that she took two lives, ruined 4 lives (children)all because she wanted revenge out of jealousy!
Everyone keeps saying, it was self defense?
Its not self defense when two ppl are sleeping!
If she couldn't see because it was too dark, how was she able to shoot Linda 2X, Dan once, and walk over to his side of the bed, take the phone away, mash his hand, and yank the phone out of the wall, all in darkness?
She's a psychopath!!
Dan was an asshole, Linda was a slut puppy but they didn't deserve to die!
She won’t be eligible for parole till 2032. She’ll be about 85.
I feel bad for her children. Because of their mothers choices, they had to grow up without either one of their parents. So sad.
Also because of the dad's choices
@@StrngAzDiamnds huh! there dad didn't kill any1... she took both parents away from her own children! the dad married sum1 and moved on... happens all the time.... u don't kill sum1s father! don't b disgusting
ty for being sum hope for women! I mean reading all these comments is very disheartening ... I just can't believe women are this weak or this bitter that they justify leaving children parentless bcuz a man left them! crazy
Can you imagine the psychological
pts they deal with. They were young kids
@@shoptalk7415 no he just had an affair with another women after Betty worked three jobs to put him through school
She kept saying “he took my children.” No, she even admitted to dropping them off to him one by one so he would know what it was like to have to take care of them. She wanted them back when she realized it didn’t bother him. If she was so smart, she should have realized she set a dangerous precedent.
The lawyer was the mom in “The Devils Advocate “
she went too far and became obsessed. She was a victim of her own making.Why couldn't she have just leaned on Jerry and got on with her life? Not sorry for her She lied over and over, and gullibles believed her.
and people are pinning this on the husband.
Its not her fault she got hurt, the but its her responsibility to heal! she gave in to it, that part is all on her.
Exactly
Trauma bonding and more
Thanks for the great download...Finally a great picture and sound...Just glad this woman is in prison for the rest of her life...!
why didn't she receive death penalty?
@@fredrezfield1629Not all states have it
Meredith was "Betty Broderick" what an actress. She deserved an Oscar for her performance. I think this movie was entertaining but did not follow exactly what happened. Dan and Linda were no angels. They did a lot of disgusting things to Betty. Yes, Dan and Linda were dating before they separated. Dan continued to tell her she was imagining things that were not happening, when in fact they were. After they separated, Linda would send ads for anti-aging cream to Betty in the mail saying she needed this badly. It is true, Dan did buy a house for Betty after the divorce but the house was in his name only, not hers. And she had to pay part of the mortgage with the money he gave her each month. He also did add fines if she would call and say something he didn't like and then deduct it from the monthly allowance he gave her. The oldest daughter was written out of her fathers will, and she did not know it until after his death. She did not live with her father because Linda and she did not get along. I have not only seen the movies but read a couple of books and they included court transcripts. Linda had a history of going after other men that had money. She worked as a flight attendant but was fired for having sex in the lavatory with a passenger. I'm not saying what Betty did was right, murder is never the answer. But I can understand why she felt like no one was on her side. She lost all the friends she had for all those years because they did not want to see her after her and Dan separated because they were still friends with him. She felt like she lost everything. She devoted her life to supporting him, first through medical school, then law school. She worked to support the family so he didn't have to worry about working at all. I can understand why she felt used. And I know that the right thing to do was to take the alimony he paid her which was like $14,000 per month and live her life and be happy. It is a sad situation for their children to loose both parents. They are the true victims in all of this.
Thanks for sharing. Some people said Betty had a boyfriend after the divorce and 2 of her kids dont want her to be out of prison. Are these true?
She Deserved The Emmy Award Because It Was A Made For TV Movie.
Dan Broderick was a douchecanoe
@@hanhkelley369it depends on what you read. I also read a book and watched the netflix miniseries. There are discrepancies. A complicated relationship!
@@hanhkelley369 Yes, Betty did have a boyfriend after the divorce and it’s true her children did not want her to get out of prison.
Jerry was such a good person - Betty should have married him and forget about Dan Broderick!
Y all don't get it .The problem was betty not Dan .she practically pushed him into another woman's arms
Even those Betty husband didn't treat right she still shouldn't kill him
@@heidirourke2259 she shouldnt and wasnt worth it…. But u r missing very important point of non existing yet law. He abused her emotionally for years. Simple words like „ you are fat, u r worthless” on daily abuse did more then u can only imagine. You people have to study some law or psychology to understand, otherwise stop talking narrow. We are not only talking about death, gun, killing the abuser…, we should Also talk about other side , about victims. Unfortunately law is narrow too.
Amen
I love the lawyer❤ when he said about Dan„ HE TOOK THEIR LIFE” and showing Betty’s picture” HE TURNED HER FROM THIS TO THIS” ❤ great lawyer. People dont realise how beauty is so important for women. And obviously the most important is health.
She is really cold blooded and sure didn't mind taking all his money which showed he still cared for her .she should never ever be released
from prison for life ,she didn't even care for her children by taking away their dad.they can't change a nartictic person
It wasn’t about caring, it’s about legalities…
I am sorry but people have affairs and get divorced all the time. You move on with your life you don't commit double murder.
Fast forward to 2024. Betty is still bitter and remains incarcerated. She wasn't a well woman to begin with in my opinion.
She’s a psycho. And most of the women commenting are also Betty’s
I have been treated like dirt by guys before and ones i have had children with too but I love my children and my freedom more than i ever hated them
Very well stated
Meredith played a spot on role as she deserves an Oscar! Betty and I can say this with confidence growing up with a family of 16 as a narcissistic mother she was bat shit crazy she wanted to control Dan and when she lost control she went nuts. It almost happened to me when I divorced my husband but I am confident why I did as I was more of a “house manager” as before I knew him a high profile Broker for almost 3 decades and all that was taken away. So was I mad when I filed yes I was because I lost apart of me that I was given “false promises” to and now just coming back!!! I feel for Betty but this is all in her for now moving along…!
The story of Betty is so tragic...VEry tragic indeed! I do understand what she suffered for from her ex Husband.,...she was treated wrong...at the end..she got no friends..even her family turned their backs from her...Linda was also a family breaker...whom to be balmed for this... yes..human nature.....she was so jealous because they took her life...they broke her ehart...it is wrong what she di..Murdering these two who broke her heart.... May God forgive her..How I wish to have known Betty personally....as a friend..so to give her love..thats what she needed for...Love and acceptance!!!!
A narcissist doesn’t know how to be a friend. Remember, one lady tried to stay by Betty’s side and be a friend. When the friend gave her good advice, Betty kicked her out of her life because it wasn’t what Betty wanted to hear. Betty ruined her children’s lives for the sake of revenge… Narcissistic people are dangerous and destructive.
@@tinar.a.3542 spot on. Anyone showing empathy for her is as mad as her 😾
@@tinar.a.3542 well said.
She had love and acceptance! She is the one that broke her family up by her actions., in the first movie, you saw how ungrateful she was nothing was ever good enough, and she acted like a little brat. So it was really her fault that her family fell apart. Her husband couldn’t take it anymore and I don’t blame him for walking out. I don’t know what people are talking about in these comments, oh poor Betty give me a break she was a nutcase. She was a narcissist. She needed mental attention and needed to be in a psych ward. That’s how I see it now I’m gonna watch part two which should be interesting. Considering part one was a real mindblower. Who drives their car into somebody’s house really?
@@tinar.a.3542exactly!!! Sucks to loose a man you love but she didn’t love him she loved the life and the money! This is not difficult to say but she didn’t even love her own children as both parents are GONE!!!
I'm team Betty all the way, but she should've listened to the advice her friend gave her in the first part, she did have a lot going for her and she needed to move on.
ur insane if ur ok with what she did! she left 4 kids by themselves! no money and struggling! they were all separated from eachother after this... and u sit here and condone that!

She shouldn't have taken two lives, but her ex-husband was totally wrong and he share in the blame
Wow 😮
@@isaiahcupil1214 He don’t share in the blame of the killing. That was her choice, and what did she achieve? A life in jail and crap life for her kids , Selfish and wrong.
There is many types of murders and murderers…, betty was a victim of emotional abuse, which is the worst type of abuse, but people stil underestimate this type of abuse…, she was also a victim of ractive abuse composed with blame shifting. There should be more law for abusive, NPD cheaters ( they are very calm, cunning, and so charming for strangers but not for the loved ones)
She dropped her kids off one by one at Dan's house. A really loving mother right!!! She wanted more money. She wanted to keep living in the same lifestyle that she had, and Dan did buy her that beautiful house, gave her a generous amount of money each month, paid for the kids needs etc. She enjoyed the spoils of his labour for many many years. She was used to that, and didn't want to alter her life at all. At one point in the movie it said that she wanted more money, well Betty, you didn't get anything now did you. You should have taken the very generous offer from Dan, and lived a great lifestyle, and carried on with your life.
That it what she should have done, it would most certainly be enough for me to get on with my life. But on the other hand she couldn't accept that she was the foundation for his wealth, by working many years she provided for him to make his dream possible. Also the rejection issue, he just replaced her with younger version. Sure over the years she developed bad reach woman attitude, they all do. Her problem was she couldn't let go,bitterness took over. This is such a tricky one for me,usually it is much easier to take a side.
Up
I’ve been in Dan & Linda’s shoes dealing with an ex-wife and you have no idea how disruptive and horrible and exhausting it is. You try to deal with it one on one and it just makes her mad, so you get lawyers involved and that just makes her madder then you end up having to call the cops because of her behavior and then that makes her even madder. Then there are the check-ins at the psych ward. You cannot win. I’ve been there. I know this… it’s not over until they have nothing else to fight for. Fortunately in my situation when the kids aged out of custody/support her fighting, screaming, cussing and physical assaults stopped. Dan & Betty weren’t in love with one another. They hadn’t been for a long time. Dan went about it the wrong way. He should have told Betty he wasn’t in love with her & left before Linda came into the picture. The marriage was over before Dan met Linda. But I don’t think it would have mattered. She still would have flipped out. Betty was in love with the idea of the marriage she wanted… not Dan. All the acting out was for an emotional reaction from Dan because any emotion from him, even negative was what she craved. She knew once the custody and settlement fight was done so was her fight with Dan…. she didn’t know how to function without fighting with Dan. Dan lied, then he was honest, he tried being nice, he tried being mean, he tried ignoring her .. all got the same histrionic reaction from Betty. She was never going to stop. She couldn’t. She’s right where she belongs and I believe she’d rather stay right when she is for the rest of her life as long as Daniel and Linda are dead. Period. 🤷🏼♀️
@@JackieOlantern stop blaming innocent women who ve been a victims…, who ve been a good mothers and wifes! stop supporting men, who supposed to pay the price for lying, cheating, selling wifes goods, making them crazy, and more. Thats the problem with most women up there. Woman blamed women, how ridiculous is this. Thats why men will never stop abusing women. Whoever u r, i wish u Well, but abuser are always abusers. Sadly, still , there is No Law for cheaters. Every cheater should go to jail, no matter what. 90% of them are men. Unfortunately. Many women i know went sick, mad, angry, crazy just because of cheaters! Cheating on someone is very dangerous when comes to health issues. In what way? Depression my Dear hits hard for most people. Most of them end up with NEW LOOK: isolated, sick, trauma, angry, frustrated, alone, bedriden, with MS, rheumatoid arthritis, and finaly cancer. No joke. This NEW LOOK Its called NEW PERSON. you can only imagine how crazy difficult is that. No words and no law ? I mean wtf! These betrayed people are sick, Ptsd, traumatic forever. I hope you understand what i am trying to say…, this is not a joke. Betty went to far, personally i wouldnt kill men, just because none of them is worth it my attention. I am not feminist, but i know victims who are very sick after cheating, they cant walk anymore, they cant work or dream anymore. Cheaters supposed say that they are not interested anymore in wife( husband) and they should leave for good with dignity and respect. But not selling wifes house, car, jewlery Ot trying to take kids always from them. Cheaters are weak people. Cheaters supposed learn how to leave with respect for everybody. In this movie the husband is most cunning manipulator, horrible father. Any good father wouldnt dare to take always kids from the mother. Kids are damaged by this father too. Just think how much ONE FAKER can do to the whole family. Just think, this man destroyed the whole family, not just Betty. Do you think kids are stupid? Do you think they love him for that? Once they adults, this will be not easy for him. Not easy for kids, the most important…, but did he think how much damage he done? No, NO FAKING WAY. This man is great example of NPD, HE IS PSYCHOPATH HIMSELF. And the most sad is that innocent wife, who went crazy, thanks to this evil man is in jail. For her hard work she done, she was the one who end up in jail. Just because she couldnt take anymore. He abused her for years. I am sure she regret, but Hello, now you see what type of abuse she went through? How much human can take. If he only would say „ i am leaving you, and i want us to be good parents together, and still love you , and lets split our money fairly.” But this evil was playing with her mind, time, money and more…, like i said, there is no law for cheaters. Cheating should be consider by lawyers more seriosuly. Cheating is not just cheating! Cheating Its a Damage to many peoples lifes. Kids, etc. Cheating is not a joke. Its a simple thing to say it , not cheat it. Men wants have all. And stupid, naive women give them all. If not a wife, then mistress. Women should be the ones who should fight for this new law. You see in this movie there is my fav part, when in the court her lawyer showed Betty how elegant she used to look when they met, and how old, depressed she end up, just because he was telling her regularly how fat, ugly she was. If you know a little psychology or law( i know both) you would know how these simple words so powerful.i met many women, who end up truly ugly, just becasue they belived in those words.They used to be succesful and beautiful, and just because they met this wrong man, they end up this way.Its so sad to see who they become. They are almost disable. Yes. Imagine what i am trying to say. People dont realise how much simple words like „ you are fat, worthless” can do to your mind. Some of these women i met used to have businesses. Now they pray not to end up with cancer. Not many people know this awful stages of abuse. But i do. And the most horrifying thing is that this law supposed to be there for ages, and still not there. You Wonder why? Ha. Men are more clever then women…, Its not handy law, i belive. Men abuse women on daily basis. This law would damage men, for the change. But is this going to happen? Maybe one day. In my country i do everything to make this happen, but lets see. Cheating is a very serious matter when comes to victims health. And ask yourself, what is most important in your life? HEALTH. you cant buy „ cancer free life”. I hope you understand more now. Wish u Well.
This woman is a psychopath. You really think she didn't have these characteristics when she was married?
Dan was a cunning weasel. Betty was an entitled, ungrateful socialite with a bone to pick. Linda was an opportunistic gold-digger on a mission to seal the deal. A delightful bunch, no doubt.

Emotional abuse…., which is very underestimated issue.
As in silence of the lambs, in her warped mind this was the only way to stop the lambs from screaming. She confessed that 1st night in prison after the atrocity was the best night's sleep she ever had, the murders completely released her from the head hell she was living, day in day out 😢
Great movie, thanks
I’m not going to apologize but this woman was selfish taking away both parents from 4 beautiful intelligent children. I get all the reasons why she did it but to kill peopie because she feels demeaned and not wanted anymore she should’ve accepted. Dan is a jerk BIGTIME she knew what she was marrying she loved the good life and didn’t accept when sadly that I’ll say it sucks to NOT want to be wanted it’s the worst feeling but killing sorry no excuse!!!! RIP to Dan and Linda
All the reasons she did it ? She is a selfish, violent, narcissistic horrid person and was all her life
1:18:00 In this part of the movie they're talking about Betty being a narcissist.
Nowadays, and even this year, the word 'scapegoat' was the Word Of The Year for Merriam Webster dictionary, meaning that was the word that was looked up the most, of all other words.
I'm soooo glad we are talking about narcissism now.
Is a SHAME this part of the movie wasn't HEAVILY highlighted, Or
Focused on back in the early 90s.
She’s not a narcissist, her husband was a narcissist. Betty clearly has borderline personality disorder.
This was an ambush. All I can think about are the kids 😞
Will someone please explain to me why people are on team Betty and feel sorry for her when she murdered her ex husband the father of her children and his wife? I understand he wasn't the perfect husband but that doesn't give her the right to end his life does it?
No alot of people would be dead if everyone did that!
I am team Betty!
Bravo!
My guess is they all share the same personality disorder... The comments are truly wild.
Imagine if you'd given the best years of your life to build a partnership, worked to support your husband while he built his career, promised "til death do we part". Then one day, you're 40 and he trades you in for a much younger model. He takes everything from you, your children, your social circle, he controls the money. You're left with nothing, not even friends and kids. Your whole world has been taken away from you. He stabbed her in the back (metaphorically speaking, used her, screwed her over).
Some women start from scratch, recover as best they can. Some women suicide. Betty chose a bad option. He and his new wife weren't worth the cost of the bullets.
Dan Broderick cut his second oldest daughter out of his will with no explanation. JS.
I am not surprised, he was manipulative from the begining. NPD EVIL
Maybe he raped her. Who knows. UsualLy these kind of feathers dont put money on their will for the victim daughter. Very common thing.
Really? He was not a good daddy.
She sided with Betty.
I feel that yes she broke the law by killing them but I dont think she deserves to be in prison the rest of her life. She worked 5 jobs to support him while he was in college and he traded her in for a younger model when he finally made it. I feel sorry for her.
I feel sorry for the deceased.
Oh please.
@@victoriasloan524 The deceased shouldn't have had the affair to begin with.
So because she worked five jobs while in college ,it justifies taking people's lives ?did you miss the part where she literally pushed her husband into another woman's arms by being a nagging shrew and acting like a bizzare nightmare ?
@@davidemerald7690 The children said she wasn’t. That was the Hollywood part of the movie saying she was.

Amazing cross
Lust of the flesh is a sin for a reason.
i understand her bitterness to a point she helped him get to where he was but she should of got him financially because her actions cost her her kids and their priceless and after all these years she still angry
She did not 'help' him get to where he is it was his parents that supported him. This is why it is a fictionalized movie for a murderess that hired a PR firm rather than an attorney. She would chase the kids and him with a butchers knife while he was still with her. She was the abuser in the relationship and had a number of affairs on him as well. After she dumped the kids on him they chose to remain with him because he was stable where she threatened to kill them also. The actual case shows the monster she was. Any of her work, was just spending $ for her. Not a nice person at all.
They didn't deserve to die, but they really pushed her past the breaking point. This movie doesn't accurately depict the true story. She supported him through his education, she raised their kids and he traded her in for a younger woman.
Agree 👍🏽 Betty Broderick did NOT have the Authority to Take anyone’s life. Only the True God is the GIVER of life, but because we aLL SIN, we aLL Suffer the pangs of death. ROMANS 5:12 reads “…. through ONE Man (Adam) Sin entered into the world and DEATH through Sin, and so Death spread to ALL MEN because they had ALL Sinned”. As for the Movie not Accurately depicting the “true story”, I DISAGREE. It most certainly did Touch on the Fact that Betty was definitely Instrumental to her husband’s Success. However, the movie aLso left me with the impression that Betty Broderick was a DIFFICULT WOMAN to get along with, that she was Self-Centered, Entitled and desperately TRIED to have things go her way most, if not ALL, of the time. Was she deserving of her husband’s Betrayal and being unceremoniously DUMPED and traded in for a younger wife? Indeed she was NOT DESERVING of being Shat on 💩 and treated in such a callous way. But if EVERY mistreated and maltreated wife were to take on the Mindset to UNALIVE their trash can of a husband for abusing and MISHANDLING their heart, indeed the world would be a much scarier place in which to live.

They should've let her out on house arrest with an ankle monitor. Why didn't they think of that when they were at the bail hearing?

I totally agree! She was a fortune seeker and that night of the Irish party she went there, because she knew Dan would be there!!!! She used her charm and looks to catch his eye!!!!
It was her intention period
Thank you for mentioning her. More should be said about her immorality, seems all saw her as lovely and nice,maby she was but she was still a marriage crusher.
I got a bad thing about the Linda gal. She was young , and allegedly a beau, but what did she had to take on a married guy with 4 kids? Of course, milllions were involved, what you talking about LA JOLLA , beach views? in my bloo**dy opinon, no symphathy for the Linda devil.
I AGREE!
OH, the pain of betrayal. Yes, he "owed her the rest of his life", he took vows.
Absolutely, she should not have taken true lives, because of a failed relationship but this wasn't an ordinary relationship, this was marital vows and he was wrong for the way he treated her and handle the whole, and I am a male and I have compassion for what this woman went through
@@isaiahcupil1214 yes I went through a divorce was hurt terribly,, I didn't put my ex husband through school and made him who was ,,, I lost everything in the divorce, my home my children,, the cars we were not rich but a vehicle is a car ,, I left the situation with the clothes on my back my three children in tow ,, the minute I felt my life was in danger ,, I left before he or I killed each other my ex was a predator,,, and he was cheating on me with the neighbor,, she lived two doors down,,, and he married her after we divorced she divorced my ex she found out he wasn't her ex husband went back to him ,,, I left but I can see where she felt betrayed, humiliated and so much more but I wasn't going to prison for my ex husband he wasn't worth it ,, I clearly could have been Betty,, but had more control of my emotions and feelings,,
These days vows mean NOTHING!
I totally agree!
Betty is a liar.
Sad that women can be replaced so easy
I am totally team Betty. Question: Why are kids being interviewed by the prosecutor without a professional child advocate and not recorded?
poor kids they are the real victims low life father an an unstable mother everyone goes through these problems but she selfish chose to put her anger infront of them now one parent is dead and other in jail!!!!
Unstable mother? 😂 Nah. She was absolutely fine before. Her husband destroyed every damn thing
Betty Broderick was a woman scorned no doubt and Dan and Linda weren't saints themselves and they pushed Betty to brink and she had no choice. I side with Betty and she was crazy but she had a reason for it.
There was no excuse for what she did.
I’m on Betty side I’m with her 100%
@@nitagirl614 - lt is not an excuse - it is called Psychosis which is Mental llness - Get educated!!
Oh yeah. Getting almost 500k a year in alimony and house pad for is the worst thing in the world
@@Pippa-pw3qw She does not have any mental illness this was pure rage
Hilarious her reaction to her sentencing. 😂😅
I am for her ex-husband. Betty is an entitled and spoiled woman . She had it all but gave him no appreciation. No person deserves to be married to a spoiled, unappreciative spouse.
She should not have killed her former spouse. It’s women like Betty who I have little sympathy for.
Betty is wrong. Team Ex husband all the way!
Finally, a voice of reason amidst a sea of ridiculous comments calling her a victim. Dan and Linda are dead, the children may never recover, she is so selfish.
Finally someone with common sense!!! these comments are crazy. How anyone could stick up for the ex-husband is beyond me. He gave her everything and all she did was put him down was ungrateful and I could go on and on but I won’t. Thank you for your comment.
I saw a small clip of the real Betty..did she look that way when married to Dan?
Dan got an affair first and be treated her
30 years..should she not be freed now?
30 years to life
Yes but she keeps getting denied for parole because she shows no remorse.
damn wealthy people don't have any emotion these kids just lost their father ? they just went on with their lives like nothing happened they appeared on opera show they were smiling and giggling what is wrong the older daughter all she could say to her mother go turn yourself in? ??
Oh Betty.
Hell hath no fury.
Those that Murder are not the only ones we should fear.
We should fear the ones that push people to murder too.
People are so naive & self-righteous, truly believing someone can't be pushed to a breaking point, but they can and have, since the beginning of time.
The problem is, we have a system built to hold a murderer accountable but no system in place to hold those accountable who push people past their breaking points.
The cycle keeps going, crime gets bolder and worse, people continue to act more irrational & selfishly, so nothing changes.
Why? Because you can't use surface level resolutions to fix deeply rooted problems.
The wife was not the only issue. The husband and the mistress were as well.
Funny how Kerri Wells, the real prosecutor is in the front row for a couple minutes…1:11:38
Who cares if she spent money? Dan spent money as well and had a mistress on the side
She is a cold blooded killer ,,,
Women like u dont realise that being cold blooded person was him first…, then her. And just becasue she hold the gun doesnt mean she was worst. He killed her inner peace and health and beauty and kids and more. If men would simply leave with dignity and respect the story would be different.
poor woman I feel so bad for her
Linda ruined this family and so is her husband! people talking about what she did is wrong
What about them?!
they took everything from her ans kids took his side of course because he had the money.
No one can’t know what one might do in this situation if they pushed that far. She should be free !
ur insane! ppl cheat everyday... this man actually married her.... he fell in love with her! I went thru this as a man... my BM cheated, lied , took friends , took everything... can I shoot her? cuz under ur logic I should get ur sympathy!
@@shoptalk7415 take chill pill

@@nadiakonior4672 truth hurts doesn’t it?

She should hold herself for her own sake , in order to remain free to start her life again .
The facst in the case are wortha google for real. Look up lindas life before this . I m not going to speak ill pf the dead here ... so go see for yourselves if you re interested. Betty truly seems ot have lost it yep but dan was treating her horribly as well , only his way was quieter . No innocents here beside sthe children for sure
Team Betty Broderick 🖤
Read Ann Rules Novel and you won't be
@@jeanetteshelby1970 Anne Rule (not Rules) never wrote a book about Brodericks.
ur sick! she took 2 ppls lives and left her kids with nothing! and u cheer that on... disgusting!
You need Jesus
When people say team Betty, they are narcissistic too!
I think Betty could’ve made better choices and decisions than she did. She had the power she didn’t know how to handle it I don’t think murder was the answer .
One of the worst crimes in California history sad as well
The girl who plays the role of Kate shows her teeth when she speaks!
She was. She was so funny only the stuff she said my opinion.
I felt sorry for Betty, she should have went on with her life with Jerry and the kids. And let Dan and Linda have each other. They were no saints themselves and pushed and pushed Betty, he took everything away from her she put him through school but it was a learning experience and she deserved better than Dan! I truly think the woman lost all perspective of reality. Not
Making her actions right. Even her friends so called friends turned on her. The saddest part were the children in all this.Their were no adults in this entire situation everyone played a part, no one seemed to do the right thing or try. And then Dan even left one of his children out of his will for getting in trouble and drugs after ever thing these parents put these kids through you wouldn’t think the children or a child would act out! That showed how easily Dan could just discard a person.Betty’s oldest daughter wrote a book and wrote a letter to the patrol board not to release her own mother! The other 3 children still go see their mother and stay in contact and wrote letters for their mothers release to the parole board the middle daughter even said Betty could live with her family. One thing I believe Betty loved her children! I think Betty should have been released she served her time.
I think at this point, she needs to be freed from prison. Other murders have not spent nearly this much time, though I think that’s awful. For gosh sakes, I’ve even let the Manson killers out or I mean some of them.
Not going to happened.
Truly a sad situation and I also knew killing was a sin ,, so didn't kill my ex husband for that reason what he did to me,, I should have for what he did to me and my kids he destroyed me,, and their lives ,, but I'm not his judge and jury, I'll let him get his hand dealt to him when he dies ,,, sad truly a sad story,,,
Is this wacko still in jail?
yes
I don’t foresee her being paroled anytime soon. I don’t think she has ever accepted responsibility for her actions. It is my personal opinion that she didn’t care if he remarried. She just cared about losing her social status.
Her oldest son recently committed suicide in Colorado after his solar business failed.
This is a very conflicting story. I think both parties could be at fault here...very sad story.
22:59 compassionate? How? yes I bet she smiled when she piss(((ed BetsY, .. smile? cracked a a laughter!! the other woman ... always cracks in laughter!!
I am with Betty.
Betty. ❤
So hurt but murder?
Fell the pain and hurt. But way too hateful.
Betty's team!
Betty was and still is fruit loops
Linda's only goal in life was to snag a rich husband.Thats why she was a stewardess first,but that plan failed when she got fired (God only knows why)but from my understanding it was for improper behavior.
Tell me you’re a blatant bitter female without saying it…Oh look you did already
Well it's 2020. So is she out and how old is she? Has she had a relationship with her children?
She has already applied for parole, won't admit what she's done and probably won't get out until 2032 is what I've seen so far. She'll be close to 85 by that time.
yes, with her grand child too. But I was wondering, what is the true story ? this one ? or Netflix's version ?
@@sweetdevil6385 true story
@@sweetdevil6385 This one it is based on Ann Rule's true crime novel
@@jeanetteshelby1970 ??? What are you talking about?
Free Betty
Keep her forever, she murdered two people when they were sleeping.
You know Betty Broderick was a mess and out of control and she had problems with her family but to have everyone know what you did and she shot Dan and Linda and she was angry b/c the pushed her over the edge and everyone in San Diego was talking about this case even had this thing called "BE NICE TO YOUR EX WIFE WEEK!" I feel sorry for those kids they suffered the most and everyone strangers were talking about them and making fun of them too. It was so unbearable and unreal and those kids had everything and then lost everything all b/c of two selfish people thinking only of themselves and not the kids.
Betty Broderick is in prison and is denial of what happened and Linda and Dan are dead. Betty Broderick was on Deadly Women ID Discovery.
😮teambetty
Betty is unstable and emotionally disturbed.
No! She is NOT! Dan and Linda drove her over the edge!
NOT!

@@shoptalk7415 I am a female and I think this woman is insane. Yes your hurt. But you simply cannot force someone to be with you. Killing him and his new wife? Your fucking crazy. Yes he was a narcissist. Yes you felt alone. But guess what? Your children are also now alone because you couldn’t continue to have it your way. Again. She’s insane.
@@truth9270 ty!! u obviously aren't bitter or just crazy
I don't know the real story ( didn't watch documentaries etc) so just from this movie portrait, watching part one and now two- was disgusted with husband actions ( eyeing young women in Irish party) then spending with her whole day on his bday, that was clear betrayal move - middle age crisis with younger, desirable woman and women desiring status and money, disregarding mother of his children who equally was responsible for their success, status and family...but I was equally disgusted with her fury actions of destroying things, putting her rage in from of children - proving she's more concerned for herself then them - then Linda was clear asshole - I have no sympathy for women who destroy families - married man- stay away - simple. So three of them were very flawed, unlikeable characters really and only real victims here are children caught up in the middle of this triangle madness....my heart goes out to them ❤
PartLy i agree with u, but i could never understand women like u who blamed mistresses😂. Remeber men would go and always go for another woman. Men are the one who u should blame. Remeber men will find any woman, if i wouldnt like to date Dań, then maybe you would date him. Remeber he was looking for his mistress, No other way. 😂think DEEPER sometimes.
@@MuseLaBet oh... well, not really ( in my view) I wont take someone else's property just because it's easily available, I wont steal a thing and I wont reach for someone else's spouse just because they might be tempted, vulnerable, goin' through tough times or just be prone to this sort of behaviour...its just wrong, end off, and woman who respect herself - should never build her life on misery of others, betray other women trust ( in sisterhood) , like a thief and a house wrecker,
But I guess everyone have different standards of morality or none, and some women like to blame man for everything...each to their own.
@@karolinaszczudlo9871 u r not for real, can tell. Deep thinking is a luxury today. And i never force women like u to think DEEPER, cos u dont get it. Many women like u dont get it, and thats the problem. U didnt stretched ur brain enough. Thats why men do what they want. I am so sad that women like u stil exists in 2024. Maybe u r older generation, who ve been told how to behave vurnerably in front of men. Maybe u like this thing. Maybe u r people pleaser, or just too polite. How can u be so blind that this man Dan destroyed the whole family? How can u stay on his side? Whats wrong with u? Cant u see that this man and any cheater can destroy not just one person( his wife) but her, kids, mistress and grandkids and parents of them, friendships.., whats wrong with women like u?
@@karolinaszczudlo9871 and u r talking about womens morality here? R u talking about his mistress? Her morality? Hehehe. What about his morality? This man was like a dog who ve lost his chain! And found his mistress. Dont blame his mistress. Cos this dog ve lost his chain and he would find another bitch! Dont u get it the depth of that? Dont u get that this man would destroy his family anyways? With another woman…, Whats wrong with u? Stop blaming mistresses! Just stop! Start to blame men for cheating and maybe one day our daughters wouldnt be abuse that much. Do u think cheating is just cheating? Whats behind cheating? Do u know psychology of that? Too deep to think? The most important is our health. After cheating nobody is the same anymore. Thats the first thing. Most of people are going sick. What way? Depression, isolation, shame, lonliness, low self esteem, No motivation, anger, and finally in many cases they losing their beauty, self esteem, they dont know who they are anymore, MS, rheumatoid arthretis, cancer or even suicide. Now, i hope u understand what cheating can do to many. If u dont blame a cheater, but u blame mistress then u r out of ur mind.
@@karolinaszczudlo9871 and let me tell u this story, story about naive, stupid women…. , one of my friend she is police oficer. She had one case when cheater strangled his mistress almost to death. They arrested him for 24h. After few days he had to come back to police station and give another raport to police. Guess who came with him? His wife to support him! Lol. What kind of stupid woman she was. My question is, do u think that this man love his wife? Do u think that this man will never cheat again with another victims? Ofcos he will. Lol. This wife has poor boundries, she doesnt love herself, she dont respect herself, she is brainwashed! But still supported him. Hehe. Women like her or maybe urself are so so self destructive. No self respect, nothing, No personality. And again, men knows this, and thats why they are cheaters forever. If we women dont change our vurnability, they will cheat forever. If the law dont change about cheating then there is No future for women, Nah. Thanks to women like his wife, we are the victims forever.
Release Betty!!
WHAT ? WHY ? She refuses to take responsibility, she still plays the victim. NO she should never be out, she could easily kill again if someone got in her way
Rshin a way I felt sorry for better they way Dan shit on her!! But she should have just walked away .what she did was stupid! She had everything going for her but chose to kill ! She didn't only destroy her life she destroyed her kids lives! It was selfish on her part!!!
She chose to do it
Dan and Linda deserved the death penalty - great Betty - you took them out!
That doesn't justify murder. Men and women divorce all the time. This doesn't mean you have to kill them
So you think murder is ok? Hmmm
Out with the old in with the young
10:56 bad attitude
FREE BETTY!
👯
She is a compulsive and shameless liar! How can anybody could agree with her?
U r not Well. 😂
That selfish man drove her crazy.
Would you feel that way if she had done him like that? No you wouldn’t. So be quiet.
