I don't know about everyone else but I'm not buying him abusing her. She was bored that was obvious. Whether you are having marriage problems are not. You don't do what she did, there is no excuse. Why didn't she just ask for a divorce? She enjoyed the money that's why.

That their wives were friends and your boss wasn’t aware of ‘abuse’ or ‘homosexuality’ definitely knocks down her story quite strongly. Wives talk and wives tell. Men also talk in private.

I read a book about this case. Nancy drugged Robert and as soon as she knew he was out, she bludgeoned him to death. There was no fight between them. The woman who looked after the kids testified that she didn't see Robert after a certain time and she heard odd noises from the bedroom. I don't believe for one second that Robert was abusive to his wife. She could make up almost any story she wanted to about their marriage after he was dead so she went for the abusive spouse lie.

She bangs the Sparky that lives in a trailer and then kills the goose that lays the golden egg.

I wish the phrase "Money can't buy happiness" was never a thing and instead replaced with "Money can't cure all things" or something of the like. In society money can't explicitly buy happiness or any emotion, but it can alleviate the burdens of life that increase stress and depression. It can't cure all of your problems but it can erase some of the things causing them and allow you to address the deeper problems we would otherwise have to ignore because we couldn't afford them before.

This is just so shocking to think how a person that could have 50% of a good amount of money and be able to live her life freely, opted for murdering someone instead. It's beyond me. That goes beyond greed in my opinion, it involves deeper emotions, maybe grudge, revenge, a long and deep desire for commiting the murder for a long time... It can't be a simple "i want all his money so I'll k°ll him" it has to be something deeper within that head of hers.

@tearainey1 Жыл бұрын

I think it had to be hate, if he was offering her 50 percent and a clean break most sane people would agree to that. The issue of the kids would have been contentious probably but it sounded like she just really wanted to live the life of luxury while hooking up with a side piece. I wonder if she even gave any thought to how it would affect her kids, or if she even cared for that matter. I imagine she never expected her busy hard working husband to catch on, and when he did it ruined the fun and excitement. That turned to spite and hate, where nothing mattered not even the money she just wanted him gone.

As someone who lived in HK for years and was on the edges of the high rolling expat community, coke is a huge problem. I had an old roommate who would work insane hours and then go on coke binges with friends that were beyond extreme. Luckily that roommate was not violent. You would just find them curled in a ball of clothes surrounded by bottles of alcohol. With how prevalent it is there, if someone is said to do coke, they very likely do. It is just extremely common.

It’s a shame something like this happened. It just shows that you never know what people/couples are going through in private and more importantly, money doesn’t buy happiness. It’s terrible that the answer to the private problems came down to murder. I hope Robert’s family is ok now.

@FDJUwe Жыл бұрын

It's interesting that the female partner being convicted of abuse only happens if it's murder. Otherwise, it's simply dismissed. "Man up". I have a friend that is physically abused by his girlfriend, and nothing happens, and nowadays it's even dangerous to mention something like this publicly, it's social suicide to accuse a woman of wrongdoings in a relationship. Patriarchy, amiright?

A minor correction; it wasn't in the garage that Nancy stored Robert's body. Parkview has a separate storage facility for each apartment unit. Residents use it to store large furnitures, appliances and wardrobe. It's reckless to store a body in there bec someone will always go there esp whenever the season is about to change, people would empty out their wardrobes and redecorate their apartments and would visit the storage to take out or store stuff. The smell of decay would certainly draw attention.

I don't think you could even remotely argue that self-defense is an option considering the sheer number and amount of drugs she put into the milkshake. It's quite clear that it was premeditated and well thought out considering the fact she was able to calmly sleep with a freshly dead corpse in the house, roll it into a newly purchased rug, store it again for a few days, and then ask for help getting the dead body out of the house. It's like she snapped and didn't care about Robert one bit.

Nancy was a raging sociopath and could never have been a good mother. To be so greedy and evil it's amazing he thought his kids were safe with her. I can't imagine his devastation that Nancy was in an affair across the globe and he loved her so much he took her back! He should have filed for divorce and got full custody. What a freaking miracle the kids are alive. They were probably in the apartment at the time! I feel so bad for the kids and Robert's family. Looking forward to Andrew's story!

There’s a good book on this case titled _Never Enough._ What I find so weird - and this is really pronounced in the book - is that she was apparently extremely extroverted, narcissistic, and abrasive for her entire adult life, yet from the moment she was arrested, she completely changed her appearance and, apparently, her personality. She looks meek and apparently became a very quiet wallflower, including in her letters to her lover. I can understand “wearing a mask,” but she seemed to undergo a complete personality transformation and then kept it up. The only other murderer I’ve seen who did the same was Celeste Beard, and even she came across as hostile during her trial. Nancy Kissel apparently changed from a lion to a mouse.
