Becky Babcock: My Mother Was a Killer

[@melissawright1979]

I admire her adoptive parents for being so honest with Becky about her adoption and her birth mother x

[@BeautifullyChaotic1992]

Her parents were by far open and honest with her. So much so, and in my opinion feeling she wasnt going to get anymore answers from her parents, that at age 11, she terrifyingly went and found out some answers on her own. She knew she was adopted and that was it until she was 8. Which I agree, was enough info until she started asking questions. At that point, when she questioned her parents, she was only told her bio monster was in prison and there was a book about her. So at age 11, she went out to find out answers, all on her own, all by herself. She tricked her baby sitter into telling her her bio monsters name. Then went to a bookstore and found out just enough about the monster who gave birth to her to scare the b- jeebers out of her, causing a reaction of slamming the book shut and running out of the store. 11 years old, reading a book, all by herself and completely alone. Then at 15, her boyfriend tricked her into watching the movie about what her bio monster did. Her parents were by far open and honest, nor there for her when in my opinion had the duty and obligation to tell her about who and what her bio monster was and did. Not at the age of 8, but certainly before she felt she had to do it on her own.

[@BeautifullyChaotic1992]

And certainly not soon enough to put her in therapy, for God's sake!!!

[@moonnuchamling9875]

They made sure not to be totally honest and open too soon that would ruin her childhood and mental health. She got to enjoy her childhood. Her adoptive parents did great job, they were afraid if she finds out too soon she would get hurt, terrified and have all the mental health problems. Its hard if we put ourselve in adoptive parents shoes. They loved her. When you love ur child you get torn between whether to tell the true story or not to tell. Its really hard thing to do. Whatever adoptive parents did great job by not telling all story in details that would have really messed up her childhood and whole life since the beginning. She wouldn't have enjoyed her childhood because her small mind wouldn't have tolerated the truth about her monstorous mother and they let time and age do its job. So, later the daughter did find out all the truth by her own. Parents told the truth that she was adopted and her bio-mother was in jail which was enough to tell and know for a child at that moment.

[@elliebellie7816]

I don't even know how her adopted family knew who her birth mother was. We adopted two children and we never knew the birth mothers names. Especially bad for them to pass the information on to the babysitter (and probably everyone else) who had no business knowing who was who. IMO, this is what made the child's life so difficult.

[@pungr]

I know Becky and is she is an absolutely amazing woman. She is so inspiring, nurture wins out over nature...

[@EmilyElizabethxox]

I want a full documentary about this woman....

[@nisaalbion7999]

Emily Elizabeth “Small Sacrifices” movie they made about her

[@blueballsexotics8596]

Fuck that bitch....just let her be forgotten. Y give her more spotlight that's what she always thrived on. ....

[@A0.917]

Right. I want to know where her parents went wrong

[@anastasiaisabella7354]

@@A0.917 don't know if this is true but people think that Diane father abused her when she was a child .

[@Maxallfemale]

In the book "Small Sacrifices", it says that she wanted and planned on getting pregnant, and she knew she got pregnant easily. She met a man while she was on a break from walking on her postal route, and he was on a break and relaxing in the park. He KNEW who she was, as this was after she was arrested, yet was surprised and horrified that Diane Downs would play him?

[@anastasiaisabella7354]

In a interview She herself said ' babies are so easy to make ' I couldn't watch that interview much longer

[@jochapman7318]

Becky, if you are reading this, you are nothing like Diane.

[@jamesf3695]

actually Rebecca Babcock is 1/2 Exactly like Diane, but I firmly believe Diane is innocent. I will also say that Rebecca has made bad decisions in her life just as any young woman will, the difference is her family was not attacked by James Haynes

[@CynicalSkeptic1]

James F You told Jo Chapman "...but I firmly believe Diane is innocent." That's because you're her brother, James Ferguson, and your opinion isn't objective. The numerous comments you have posted throughout these videos only serves to exhibit this fact. You simply ignore evidence.

[@jochapman7318]

James F Twelve jurors did NOT believe her to be innocent, and neither did the daughter who saw her shooting her and the other two children. Diane is a stone-cold murderer, and her guilt has been proved. She killed your niece. How sad you can't see it.

[@nancyhunter3293]

James F yup, I agree

[@lonelyheroine]

+James F Are you that moron with a website dedicated to your belief that this monster is innocent. You really need to find another hobby. So you are a proponent of Downs flimsy belief that A bushy haired stranger is the real culprit. You are seriously misguided and not very bright.

[@driver3464]

It may not be easy to escape from prison, but you have to remember, you have alot of people who have nothing to do but sit around and think of ways to beat the system

[@elmerliwan1435]

the adoptive parent is a good parent unlike the biological mother whoo is ivel

“Manhunt.” Ironic.

She is the spitting image of her mother!!!

[@filmnoirfan1975]

I haven't walked in Becy's shoes, but I think she would have been so much better off never knowing anything about her birth mother. Giving birth does not make a parent, and she has loving, kind parents.

[@MySnaz]

She strongly resembled Christie as a child.

[@CYOnTheBeat]

That child needs to be monitored closely

[@PinkGardenia85]

Sick!!

[@MySnaz]

Diane was also surrogate to a daughter in May of 1982.

[@anastasiaisabella7354]

Becky is that same child

[@MySnaz]

@@anastasiaisabella7354 No, Becky was not a surrogate baby. The surrogate baby is one Diane never got to hold at all. Becky was born after the surrogate baby, who Diane named Jennifer.

[@anastasiaisabella7354]

@@MySnaz oh I forget that she was a surrogate she loved to the attention that she gotten when being pregnant in her words : 'Babies are so easy to make ' 😧

[@MySnaz]

@@anastasiaisabella7354 Yep. She was good at making them, just not nurturing them.

[@anastasiaisabella7354]

@@MySnaz and thanks God that she over her childbearing years .I like to thinks there is a special place in hell for her but I don't think that Satan would want that woman there either

[@jeanniefeaster4325]

What I will never understand is why Ann Rule kept the biologocal father information from Becky. No disrespect to Ann, I was a fan & may God continue to rest her soul, but I have the right to wonder why she had that loyalty to Diane when it came to that secrecy. Evil Diane did not deserve that loyalty from Ann! Even with Becky sitting right next to Ann, respectfully & rightfully touching the father subject with heavy heart, Ann still continued to have that loyalty to the secret & later took it to the grave. As much as I loved Ann, that is the one thing about her that I didn't understand.

[@tamathakibler9416]

Ann Rule was probably considering the privacy of Becky. Wasn't she still a small child when she wrote the book Small Sacrifices?

[@TheElixir007]

she must be a really strong woman... planning to use this video for a lesson at school...

[@smcguffries]

Do she have a relationship with her brother and sister?

[@jeanniefeaster4325]

No, they decided it was best not to met Becky because they wanted the adoptive family to be their only family so that nothing can remind them of the past.

[@moonbean15a]

No, she is not. She is not evil.

[@thecov3n]

Kinda sad they don’t wanna meet their sibling

[@sweetdixie8498]

Ok Christy and Danny don't go in the lime life and they were the victims she just what's to be noticed move on your mother never wanted you she was trying to beat a murder charge

[@nowirehangers2815]

Are you OK? ??

[@shelby6571]

She looks a lot like Diane Downs

[@gamorris7646]

❤ you Becky

[@ParDiss-e4i]

She doesn't look like her. 😊 I don't understand how that psychopath isn't ashamed of herself.

[@AaronRodgersIsHot]

That's not necessarily true. And that's a very awful thing to say

[@soniasg8639]

Wow, didn't know Diane escaped prison.

[@Wareaglegirl9960]

She’s been on a few shows. Why would she want to put herself out there except for attention

[@Abelli100]

A further incredible facet of this case was the consequent adoption of these children by Attorney Fred Hugi, who was prosecuting this case, and whose wife could not have children. Moreover, this involves the only eye witness to the crime, Christie Downs, who at the time of the crime was eight years old, and who testified against her mother after what must be assumed to have been brainwashing by the authorities. “The only non-circumstantial evidence in support of the allegation that Ms. Downs shot her children was the testimony of Christie Downs, who was coached for almost a year by former Lane County District Attorney Fred Hugi. [Note: It is not clear why Mr. Hugi continued to prosecute Ms. Downs on behalf of Lane County District Attorney Harcleroad after he decided he wanted to adopt Christie and Danny Downs. The unbelievable conflict of interest that existed when former Lane County Deputy District Attorney Hugi prosecuted the mother of the children he wanted to adopt is beyond the scope of this letter.]" Compare with CONSCIOUSNESS AND COGNITION 3, 388-407 (1994) Source Misattributions among Preschoolers STEPHEN J.

Hmm that's odd because Diane herself has said he has NEVER said a bad word about her to her children....and that's from her own mouth.

[@ZEITGEISTism]

@offwiththefairies77 wow really ? thats what Ive always thought .(.that her daughter was couched to condemn the mother ) In my opinion the cops couldnt find the real killer so they settled for nailing the 27 yr old (and not the sharpest knife in the draw ) mother, for the crime

Exactly

I disagree. I really do. Finding out that her birth mother is a child murderer shattered Becky and to cope she turned to drugs and alcohol. But now she’s sober and living the best life possible for herself and her son. 💯

And you know all this cause you personally know her & have walked in her shoes & you also know what it's like to find out about a shocking bloodline, right? You're an absolute perfect genius if that's the case.

@@adamjustadam that is so her excuse. I know a little girl who was nine months old and watched her. Dad beat her mom to death then kidnap her. Her dad got 65 years and she’s 24 no drugs no alcohol and a college education. Becky wanted an excuse. She wasn’t even raised by her.
