    She thought that she had the upper hand,and she was calling all the shots.which was a serious error on her part. Fred was prepared to take all the blame. When she rebuffed him in the court room. I believe he went back into his cell and said"fuck you Rose" and killed himself. She was definitely the more sadistic,the coldest,and it's a shame she doesn't follow her husband straight to hell.

      @Ad Yo . It's called giving an opinion on the video you have watched. Did you watch it? Or was it to advanced for your low functioning brain? There are a lot of cartoons on youtube you could watch.

    Fred signed himself up for a prison job where he worked on repairing clothing. It seems he was able to stash enough cutoff scraps over a long enough period to fashion himself a ligature.
    That is a massive security failure. Why wasn't he searched going to and from work? He should have been, can't speak for 1994/5 but that is absolutely standard procedure nowadays.
