Throwing stones here is useless. Nothing makes any sense outside of some form of extreme mental illness breaking the most sacred barriers of trust. It's that devastating. It is a very personal story that affected the most vulnerable children also tearing at least one family apart. There are waves of shock, disgust, anger, with few answers as to why in this case. Healing after devastation like this is the hard part which will forever be ongoing. That includes the perpetrator who is obviously mentally so bent, in an almost impossible way that's impossible to come back from without lifelong intense therapy and the miracle of God's Grace. I get some solace seeing the main victim, Lauren, is embracing that Grace.

This is a shocking story with a twist the viewer will never guess without prior knowledge of this insidious stalking crime. A truly bizarre crime story that will leave the viewer puzzled seeking more answers how anything like this can be reality. A good overview told in logical sequence yet frustrating for what we don't know and can't understand.

I won't give anything away, but I'm disgusted by the perpetrator. Recently, my preteen approached me and made me read and listen to messages, which really shocked me. A "good" friend of hers was with another friend, and when they had a disagreement, both girls seriously threatened my daughter via WhatsApp. According to the messages, they were going to murder her with a group. WT*? Luckily, my daughter shared this with me right away. I've been in touch with both girls, and they were more than warned by me. Their parents reacted differently. One girl was grounded. The other girl's mother told me she thought I was exaggerating and that her daughter was crying too, so they felt sorry for her. Uh, what?! I feel terrible that a 12-year-old had to go through this. I'm now reading all her social media contacts, and she understands. Talk to your teens, protect them <3.

This documentary is a striking portrayal of a hardcore narcissistic sociopath-covert, manipulative, and hidden behind a convincing mask. The narrative runs smoothly and keeps a tight pace, never dragging on unnecessarily. Still, with such a powerful story at its core, there was potential to go even deeper into the psychology behind the behavior. This docu. Lacks that.

The story is deeply unsettling and carries a haunting weight. The twist arrives with brutal force, reminding viewers just how deceptive appearances can be. For anyone with an interest in psychology, this is a must-watch. It sheds light on the disturbing realities of what some people are truly capable of, even those who may be closest to us.

Wow! I did not expect the person to be that person until the very second it was confirmed!

What a crazy story, like insanity-level crazy!

I don't want to spoil so i'm not going to say who it is, but let me say this:

The person is a very sick individual. I truly believe that the person should not under any circumstances be around children, ever. The person seems to be a narcissist, possibly on the level of psycopathy. It's a dangerous person, and if I was living in that town, I would avoid the person every single way possible.

The victims in this story, I really feel for them. This consumed a large portion of their youth and clouded days that should have been bright. I'm so glad that it didn't break the victims entirely and caused them to commit suicide or something because that could have become a very real consequence of the almost TWO YEARS of constant harassment and bullying. I hope they can trust people again and that this doesn't cause them to question every person who they get close to. I hope they heal and overcome this crazy ordeal! Thank god for FBI and for them being able to uncover the truth.

The twist at the end was quite something. The person concerned should never be allowed near another in her lifetime, so wicked and evil are their deeds.

The only problem I had was the 'first messages'. We all know who started this and yet the law and the documentary makers let her slide off the hook when it could have been proven beyond all doubt.

Well worth a watch though.
