L'affaire Gypsy Rose

A genuinely interesting story whose telling transmogrifies into a painful set of confessionals from the Real World. It's absolutely not a documentary. It is an exhausting, overwrought slog through prison 'romance', in a painful reality television style. Yes - has a really interesting and compelling backstory of the extremes of parental neglect and abuse, tragic consequences, etc. But you end up with so many unanswered questions about the crimes, the people involved and the actual important and relevant facts that it is totally unfulfilling as any sort of storytelling - let alone a documentary. Such a potentially sympathetic person and story squandered.

This show I feel is prime example of feeding the decay of our morales of humanity. She is literally making a small fortune off this series portrait of her being a justified killer but yet appears as a victim. If lifetime doesn't see a larger can of trouble coming from this they are as nieve as she is . Now people can play the victim and then justify why they kill and also it belittling real victims who suffered abuse with out their payday all because they didn't commit a brutal murder. They are just numbing people of personal responsibility and destruction of a morale society.i hope the might highlight more positive people overcoming being victimized but doing something positive.

GR is not deserving of the attention which she is thriving in for personal gain,versus a therapeutic & redemption approach.

Why did they(courts & so forth)allow someone such freedom? She is on parole not probation for early release,which means her sentence wasn't/isn't fully completed.. I've seen those with minor crimes get less liberties,until they prove acclimation into society with time is proven.

To all those letting her act so foolish like the world owes her don't act surprised,when she does anything that puts her back in the system.

If she was volunteering or giving back in some way although it would still take awhile for others to trust her,it would show that she walked away healthier instead we are watching a younger version of her mom unfold.

She actually feels her story is hers alone,she's the only person ever parental abused. If she feels threatened your story could take her spotlight that person/social account,faces being bullied by her or a supporter.

Her mom never was diagnosed officially with MBP it was a defense tactic her lawyer used to help,so GR now uses that only to her advantage.

I'm sure some not all she dealt growing up was bad as claimed,however she played a huge part in killing someone.. It wasn't self-defense versus premeditated,so feel her sentence should of been the same as Nick.

I can't believe her PO allows all they do,makes me think they got paid off or something.. Again she did not serve her full sentence & got early release,therefore why isn't she needing stricter guidelines?

Examples: Continued travel,changing appearance,relationships,social media & more!

She's dangerous & is being given,too much freedom without consequences to harm or perhaps kill again.

Feel worried if she has a child needing attention or makes her feel not free & so forth.. She will approach it negatively,she doesn't have appropriate life skills.

Those giving support calling her queen,etc.. Are not looking at facts,but variety of movie/series "interpretations"instead.

If there was anybody who perfectly fit such a term"Grifter"her/family is that,you can only do shady things or play victim so many times.. Why GRB is a walking time bomb caught in only fantasy wants & desires,anyone dare make her accountable to daily or mundane responsibility she retreats into excuses while hurting anyone along the way.

Shame on you.. Lifetime! Do better give more focus & financial incentives.. For true victims or those,trying to do good for others.. You have given this narcissistic person,way more than 15 minutes-Move on!

The FOIA documents have been released to the public. These are the legal case files the public needs to read. She previously tried to take her Mother's life, was never reported, and then manipulated an Autistic man who was collecting a permanent disability check to take the fall for her plan. She planned it for years and she should not be free to influence our youth.

Please do your research and read the FOIA documents. Society is not safe with people like her around. The public is praising someone who murdered their own mother & was given a false narrative for a sweet plea deal. Stop glorifying Murderers.

It's tragic what happened to this young lady, her mother definitely abused her and her trust. That being said, she IS a murderer and a manipulator and used that horny, slow boy as a weapon. Now he's serving life and she's making a show about getting married to some Easter-egg of a human? Let's not forget, this guy is the exact same as those sad women who write fan mail to serial killers.

I watched the entire series just to see if there was anything new they would convey. If you're wondering, there's not. It's 6 episodes of "I killed my mother, BUT.." the whole thing puts me in mind of the self-serving Casey Anthony "special" that came out a few years ago. It's a desperate attempt to hold on to the fleeting 15 minutes for a despicable act.

This girl was abused, no argument. But rather than go to the authorities or any number of people on the planet, she chose to USE some rando in the internet to do her dirty work. The only reason the prosecutor cut her the deal is because they knew when she got in the stand and boo-hooed in her little girl voice the jury might have found her not guilty so they figured some prison is better than no prison.

In reality, she deserves to spend her life behind bars, not getting married and doing book signings. Does this little killer realize she's not "free"? She's on PAROLE!
