Goodnight, Sugar Babe: The Killing of Vera Jo Reigle

I can't believe the amount of reviews that are going on about teeth!!

Considering the subject matter!!!

It's obvious most are mentally challenged.

As documentries go this was very poorly made and all over the place at times.

But eventually you get the story.

How these people either stood by or contributated to the death of Vera is sickening.

These people are just absolute garbage human beings. I don't think a single person in that family has any redeeming qualities. I am not normally a judgmental person, but oh my god...this entire bloodline needs to be put out of it's misery. The Brooks family make regular white trash look like the Kennedy's. I feel so sad for the poor girl who got caught up in this mess and lost her life, although seeing her background, it's unlikely she had a chance in life anyway. The problem with this show is that Vera seems to play a minor role in the story of her own murder. A lot more focus is put on these "hills have eyes" rejects that barely pass for humans. It so heartbreaking that children are even allowed around a single member of this psychotic, despicable family. If ever there was a case for forced sterilization, this is it! These people continuing to breed is more terrifying than any potential terrorist attack.

Ok after I read others reviews, I didn't feel so bad about stating the truth. Does anyone in that town have teeth or do exercise?? They need to look into that. And also such a frustrating documentary because it's about this messed up family, who should all be in prison, instead of vera who was brutally murdered.

This was one of the most infuriating documentaries I have ever watched. The entire cast of people interviewed in this film appear to be products of incest, rampant drug/sexual abuse, and mental illness. I had no idea people this creepy even existed, especially not in Ohio. I am a social worker with homeless people in a major southern city, and I have never witnesses anyone even remotely as grotesque and ultimately insane as these people. It was hard to look at and listen to these people. What really enraged me was that everyone knew exactly what was going to happen as Vera left the house the night of her death, and yet they just stood by and watched. Not to mention the many other incidents of abuse that they all watched Vera endure. I'm still not sure how all of these people were witnesses to some of the events that occurred and not charged with anything..seriously, how many people lived in that house? They all seem so aloof and most of them seem developmentally delayed. The entire family is revolting, and I don't understand why Cheri "sugar babe" is not in prison. Good film, but trashy people and disturbing events.

I gave this movie a six because I love crime documentaries. However while this is that, it seems less about the very tragic life of Vera, and more about how this jaba the hut of a womans evil puppeteering caused an entire family to become complete animals and brutalize another human being for fun before ultimately murdering her for the sole purpose that they no longer had fun doing it. The police and everyone else in this pathetic town should be held accountable. Every single person let this woman down but that disgusting family should be in prison for the rest of their days. One family member couldn't help but smirk and smile each and EVERY SINGLE TIME he saId ANYTHING about what happened to this womab. They are all guilty and not a single one of them deserve to see the light of day ever again except at yard time in prison. This sugarbear is as vindictive as the crazy woman from Evil Genius. It goes to show you true evil is walking (waddling?) among us and weather you believe in a God or not, it's plain to see real evil exsits. This family is proof. I understand they wanted to do a documentary about this hienous crime but i think the focus was on the wrong subjects. Vera was only the backdrop even in a movie about the crime that was her murder. Its a shame, for her and her poor daughter, the moment she ever laid eyes upon the Brooks family. May she rest in peace.
