      I still find it strange all of the people saying, all she had to do was get a divorce. She's a psychopath and clearly a sociopath, she dealt with her venom true to type, I believe "a divorce" wasn't an option for this disgusting woman. I Actually think that her hatred for Greg (Rest In Peace) stemmed from him cutting his long hair and changing his appearance. That petty!

That they could be so forgiving, kind, and loving toward their son's/brother's killer--so understanding of his youth and the way he was manipulated--is inspirational (and makes the whole story even sadder, because it only shows even more what a wonderful person Gregg must have been, too).

      Gregg’s mom passed away from cancer like 7-8 years after his murder, and one of his brothers later said how her final years were absolutely destroyed by pain and grief, even before she got sick. He said there was a sense of peace when she passed because she was no longer suffering from either, and their family felt that she was reunited with Gregg and in a better place. I bawled by eyes out reading that. 😢

      Any empathy from Billy Flynn was a charade to sway the jury toward a guilty verdict, and it was all orchestrated by the prosecution. Billy had to pander for some leniency, and what better way than to feign emotions to garner sympathy. Billy only wanted money and wheels, not to mention thrills. Pam only wanted the life insurance, the condo, and the dog. Billy and Pam were actually 2 peas in a pod, despite the creep factor.

  • @jenniferreinoehl7883

    For everyone defending Pam, please explain how Bill knew exactly how much the life insurance policies on Greg were. Why would he have that information unless Pam told him, and why would she talk about how much her husband 's life insurance policies were with him? Why would Pam say that if Cecilia went to the police or was questioned by them (on the tape) that she-Pam-would be busted if Cecilia tells what she knows. Why would she threaten Cecilia and tell her that if Cecilia tells the police she knew in advance of the murder that Cecilia would go to jail? (You are not legally required to report if you hear someone talking about committing a crime: Pam lied). Pam also says that Greg usually left the light on for her when she was late. He's an insurance salesman; she works in a high school as a resource person. Why is she regularly home later than him? Especially since she is supposedly the devoted wife. We are also talking about three kids who couldn't keep themselves from confessing to a murder they committed-something they most certainly would have lied about if they had any ability to do so believably- vs. a woman who hid a months long affair with her underaged student from others including her husband and then tried to keep that information from police after he was killed. Apparently, all the people defending Pam are unaware how much influence people in superior positions such as counselors and teachers can have over the children they teach. Unlike the rest of us, they probably also never did anything stupid as teenagers they later regretted. I also don't understand how people think these kids were trying to shirk responsibility. They all admitted what they did. Is it so hard to believe that a 22-year old woman whose husband went from being a carefree rocker to an overworking businessman overnight fell out of love with him and wanted his newfound business money and that lifestyle but also wanted to still have fun? Sorry, in America if you plan to have someone killed, you are just as responsible as the killers. Further, these kids all did well in prison and didn't cause trouble. Pam, on the other hand has been constantly in trouble- and was moved to a maximum security prison because they were worried she would try to escape. Finally, she was only tried for murder. She also should be tried for being a pedophile and that should have been tacked onto her sentence-since she blatantly admits it. People do not send kids to school expecting staff to develop sexual relationships with them just as they don't send their infirm elderly parents to nursing homes and expect staff to have sex with them. Being an adult means you need to control your urges and learn how to draw lines you don't cross- including spending extra time with any single person in your charge. If she hadn't gone to his house or invited him to hers, it certainly would have limited her opportunity to get sexually involved with him.

      I was thinking that too. However, we live in a different time nowadays. Back in the 90’s, when I was in school, these “Hot women teachers” and boys wanting them and things happening was kinda acceptable in that society. However back then, it was also a lot easier for these types of women to get away w doing this due to no electronics that could be used as evidence like we have now. Heck, this same thing happened in my high school. A Senior had a crush on a pretty young teacher and after he graduated, he was 18 and they married but it was well known they had “relations” up to a year before that. And that was 2003, so it was still somewhat accepted then. But I do feel bad that these kids got manipulated by that awful woman, but they absolutely deserved every single second they all spent in prison. I’m glad to know Billy is now out and behaving and is doing ok, but Pamela KNEW BETTER!!!!! The kids knew better too. But if it weren’t her insistence on killing her poor innocent husband, then mainly & most importantly Greg would’ve just dealt w a divorce and moved onto find a real lady to marry, unlike the wh*re Pam is. And those teens would’ve not been involved in this either. She was the puppet master behind it all. She still to this day after 30 years is saying she had no part, and trying to get released. She even goes as far as to whine about how “Unfair” her life sentence is. It’s NOT unfair! She hasn’t even taken responsibility for her role in this. She’s garbage and hopefully she never leaves prison alive. Meaning.. she just stays until she dies like she’s ordered to do.

      This very thing ran through my mind a million times. So did the question....did GOD tell Gregg, your wife did this, I'm sure you've heard of near death experiences where people speak with Jesus. I believe Gregg loved Pam so much. He actually moved to Florida to be near her before they were even married. I learned that Gregg's parents tried to sway him away from her, telling him, she's not for you. They saw that she treated them coldly and someone in a serious relationship WILL be very open and warm to their future in-laws but she was not. They saw her main goal was a career but you know the drill. Young and in love....I think Gregg was a lovely boy. Inherently good. I'm so glad the family got justice. I mean, they were literally slapped in the face with their son's death, actually seeing him on the floor dead. They SAW the very pits of hell. You're post just caught my eye. Yes, Gregg even faced with a serious situation tried to hold on to his wedding band which I'm sure he treasured. So sorry that this is long. I know how it feels to be hit with a death like that. The pain never goes away. So many lives were destroyed but the Smart family suffered terribly. Thank you for listening. XXOO GOD bless you.

      @@margl6635 The only thing she's "embarrassed" about is that she got caught. She has zero shame. And the point of my comment isn't that she claims to have thought "The cops know about the affair!" when Billy was arrested, the point is that she claims to have thought, "The cops know about the affair!" and then didn't go to the police because "If [she] did, the cops would find out about the affair."
      They'd "find out" about the affair she claims to have thought the police already knew about.
      What utter BS. She didn't go to the cops when Billy was arrested because she thought he'd be tried as a juvenile and so would be able to keep his mouth shut, and she was trying to send him messages through his mother to manipulate him into doing just that (keeping his mouth shut).
      What Pame doesn't seem to realize is that with her "I was embarrassed" crap, she's admitting that hiding her affair was more important to her than finding her husband's killer. She claims to have been "obsessed" with finding Gregg's murderer, but withheld information from the police--which doesn't sound at all like a person doing everything she could to find the killer, does it? (And that's not even mentioning all the other clear and obvious proof of her involvement and attempts at witness tampering.)

      YES!! I was actually just about to type out a comment about that. Gregg had a drunken one-night stand with someone he didn't know, that he immediately confessed. Pame is the one who had an actual affair. But she calls Gregg's one-night-stand "an affair" to try to make it appear that he was the bad one and that what he did was just as bad as what she did. She's trying to manipulate us (and the jury back then) into seeing her grooming and abuse of a fifteen-year-old in the same light as what Gregg did, when it is absolutely not.
      Especially when you consider how Pame reacted to Gregg's haircut and lifestyle change(s), how much they argued, and how cold she reportedly was toward him. I'm not saying his having a drunk one-nighter was okay, but it's certainly at least understandable in context. And the fact that he immediately confessed tells us how much remorse he felt. Pame, on the other hand...

    I'll never forget when Pam slammed the door in that reporter's face when he tried to interview her after the suspects' identities were broadcast all over the media. Up to that point, Pam seized every opportunity possible to gain any sort of media attention. Pam kept picking at an open wound until she eventually incriminated herself. Pam would even doll herself up in full hair and make-up, but she never shed a single tear. Pam's matter-of-fact demeanor and delivery didn't sit well with anyone.

      Billy Flynn had to cooperate with the prosecution in order to garner some leniency. Pam was the prosecution's main target, so any sympathy toward Billy would help sway the jury toward a guilty verdict, the ultimate goal. Billy has since been released while Pam, on the other hand, continues to languish in prison, a punishment she deserves. Billy only wanted money and wheels, not to mention thrills. Pam only wanted the life insurance, the condo, and the dog. The gang, Cecelia Pierce included, loosened their lips after Pam failed to honor her part of the bargain, which was money in exchange for murder. Their fury gave way to gossip and carelessness.

Because of testosterone, and the fact that the brain goes through a massive change between the ages of 12-25. The prefrontal cortex rearranges itself. It often makes young women unpredictable in their emotions, and young men unpredictable in their behaviours.

One Juror admitted that after seeing the movie that she had already decided that she was guilty. Remember that Pam did not kill anyone. The three kids were in adjoining cells where Prison Officers allowed them to chat freely about the case. Pam was in solitary.

Something doesn't sound right here. I also think on the tapes, that Pam was trying to help Cecilia stay out of it and that is all. There is nothing said where she actually incriminates herself. Bill was incredibly obsessed with Pam and Pam was trying to let him down gently but he couldn't handle this so he thought if he got rid of Greg Pam would stay with him. He had even threatened to kill himself if she didn't stay with her. This is typical behaviour of a truely obsessed kid traumatized by an impending breakup.
