Betty Broderick, convicted of murdering her ex-husband and his new wife in bed, dies at 78

>*She hated him more than she loved her children* That was why I could never be Team Betty. She gave not one single shit about the effect of all that on her kids. I thought Dan, Linda and Betty were all equally-awful people. I only felt bad for her kids.

He wasnt horrible. All of the stuff about Dan comes from what Betty has said which is not reliable. He didnt even leave her after his degree. He supported her for years with a luxury lifestyle before leaving her for Linda. And by her daughters account Betty was abusive and violent during the marriage.

Oh that’s her?!

Dirty Betty. Dirty John is about John Meehan

Here’s the link: https://www.netflix.com/us/title/80241855 It’s season 2 of Dirty John. I was confused as another comment called it Dirty Betty

It’s all the killers side of the story

“Just two weeks after his wedding to Betty, she asked him for a divorce, Dan stated in that 1988 interview. "I swear to God! I couldn't believe it. I was 24 years old. She was upset with me. She would never tell me \[why\]. She would say, 'If you don't know what I'm upset about, then you've got a real problem. I don't want to talk about it. I want to be divorced.' " Later, Dan said, "There were requests, demands, for divorce, hundreds of times. I means hundreds of times! I'm not exaggerating." "She glosses over a lot when she says we were both happy" with this arrangement, Dan declared. "She tells my children that we had a blissful, happy, healthy marriage until | went crazy when I was 40. That's just pure fiction! It's a figment of her imagination that's not even close." In reality, the marriage was tumultuous throughout its course, he said, cursed with "real incompatibility problems." Some were her fault, he said; but "I was far from the kind of good, loving husband I could have been," Dan readily admitted. Not long afterward, according to Dan, Betty began lapsing into violence. "She would come into the house whenever she wanted to, but in June 1985, she started on the rampages. Throwing stuff through the windows and breaking mirrors and spray-painting the walls. I mean, unbelievable things. She would always say that I provoked her, that she was upset with me because I did something or other. At one time, I had taken the kids to get haircuts, and she was expecting them at a soccer game. I didn't know they were supposed to be at a soccer game. I'm not that kind of person, that would take them to get a haircut just to spite her. I came back and there were hundreds, maybe thousands of dollars in damage. I mean, windows broken, and chandeliers cracked, and a stereo smashed. It was unbelievable stuff. "I called the police. 'What can you do about this?' 'Nothing. You don't have a court order. It's her house. She can do whatever she wants.! They wouldn't even take a report." So finally, on September 23, 1985, Dan filed for divorce. Earlier that month, Betty had received some warning of a change in her relationship with her husband. "He came and told me that he wanted me to be paying my own bills.... He sat me down and said, now you should have this for this, and this for that, and this for that." The calculations resulted in Dan's drawing up an agreement to pay Betty an "allowance" of almost $9000 per month - an annual income of more than $105,000 per year, tax-free (he also agreed to continue paying for insurance, taxes, club dues, and boat fees).

The behaviour she 'exhibited' was stalking him, vandalising his property and attacking him. Thats what he was deducting payments for. You conveniently omit that. Her daughter has talked about her physical violence towards the children and Dan. I dont know why you just automatically believe Betty's claims.

what is wrong with these billionaires lol? If I made that kind of money I'd tip every meal. I would be proud to.
