    "They said I was too pretty"
    It's kinda funny how she doesn't seem to grasp how real world works. Let's say that even if she's really pretty... even miss universe pretty, bullies would say "she's not that pretty anyway" or "she's ugly" or "she got work done on her face". They wouldn't say nice things about her, let alone compliment her. 😅

I don’t mind them thinking that’s me.

    Can you imagine being Tracy? Knowing that your attempt to reach out and befriend awkward, sickly sheltered woman, make her feel more welcome in town and find your cousin a girlfriend ended up alienating said cousin from the rest of the family, eventually murdering your brother and his fiancee (leaving their six month old baby unharmed, sure, but what could have happened to him in the time it took for them to be found?). And all over a hate campaign that said said woman very, very obviously faked?
    Jenelle's older sister Christie has had some very interesting things to say about Jennelle and the case; she has argued that Jenelle, while possessing a lower IQ and having auditory processing issues, is much more capable than either of their parents gave her credit for and believes their coddling of her to be part of the reason that Jenelle has always had such a hard time making friends.
    Upsettingly for Christie (thought I get the impression it was probably more a shock than a surprise for her), evidence was found in the piles of printed off emails to show that Barbra and "Chris" talked about her, with "Chirs" talking about how he was sure that she was friends with these horrible women that were harassing Jenelle, she was whoring herself out (neither of which were true) and how it made him so angry he just wanted to kill her. To which her mother replied; "you're welcome to kill any of them, but if you kill Christie, make sure her body is found. We have a life insurance policy on her". Just in case you needed a reason to hate Babs any ore than you already do...

      @@rose-yd9mn I am on the spectrum too. IQ was a poor term to indicate what I was trying to say, since I am well aware of the flaws in IQ as a measure. What I was trying to say is that the parents were defensive of her because they said she was….I don’t know exactly how to express this but they believed she wasn’t smart enough to not be in danger of exploitation , yet she was apparently more than capable of stringing them along.

      I agree but when you think about it, it wouldn't be hard to do. She catfished them and there are still some older adults who are not as familiar with the online trickery of social media as their younger counterparts. Just being able to send emails probably made them feel technologically advanced. I just wish I could have seen the father's face when he found out his daughter had tricked him, and he had killed those innocent people (and was now serving two life sentences) for nothing.

      It always baffles me at almost everyone ever murdered was bubbly,loved everyone, everyone loved them and would do anything for anybody. I have already written my own obituary. It says "she was such a bitch,I don't know how she wasn't killed years ago. Not one thing nice to say about her". I swear only nice lovely people are murdered so I don't think I will be a murder victim. LOL.

      Jokes anyway cause things happen everywhere all the time. Never got why people say that sort of thing. What they mean is "things happen but we either don't know about it, ignore it, or hide it"

    The baby boy was found Alive and Found in his dead mother’s arms? She was only concerned with protecting her baby ..a good mother to the very end. SHE was the unsung hero here. Smh
    These killers are the picture of ignorance and hatred.
    Pointless. Awful.

      Actually the baby was not found in her arms! @8:19 in the 911 call the friend said the woman was lying near the playpen "it kinda looks like she was trying to get to her baby" . A mother protecting her child is not a hero. She is doing what her instinct is to do, it comes natuarlly, it's nature, same in the wild, would you call a mother bear a hero?
