    The fake crying, dry sniffles, old grandma outfits and the whole cringe acting on the stand was all for nothing!! Guilty 💯!! RIP Doug and justice for the family. I hope she gets the full 30 years!!
  • Gold digger murderer got off easy. She should have been convicted of murder instead of manslaughter. She'll get at least 15 years to think about it and none of her ex's money so there is some justice.

    Eva apologizes for Ashley's false actions towards abused women ! Eva is a strong woman and you can tell by her words how much respect she has for human life !!❤ I feel for Ashley's child and Eva 😢 No one wins !! Very sad 😔

    I guess Ashley thought she was going to get away with killing her husband 😮😢 I dont think PRISON is going to be a good fit for her !!

    She is a con artist - like amber heard. Her husband helps her start a ballet company and she takes off and leaves him to pick up the pieces. She wanted him to help her move and after she didn’t need him any more she killed him.

    He testified in a depo that he punched the dog and threw the cat. Animal abuse often tied to domestic abuse

    She did get off easy, but she still has lots of years coming her way. Eva keep being the strong, smart, beautiful young lady that your parents are proud of. Stay close to family and ignore the negative people. The majority saw through her,but most importantly, the jury did. 🩷🩷🩷
