BIGGEST LIE EVER ENDS IN TRAGEDY! Case of Dee Dee and Gypsy

[@aidyn881]

She’s going to get out of prison at age 30. With no therapy for her trauma, no career, nothing past a kindergarten education, and nowhere to go. 10 years in prison instead of a facility to help her, is insane, and unfair.

How could nobody see it was puberty and raging harmones the reason Gypsy had Deedee killed. Her 1st time was in a theatre men's bathroom. After the murder they went to a hotel and asked Nick to rape her. She didn't snap from the lie she was a part of. She became a woman. Let's keep it real now. She's not that little girl that jumped in that pile of snow. We all saw Gypsy's act when DT told her your mother is dead. That was an Oscar worthy performance.

@Molly Exactly, I believe that the sentence is to harsh. Her mother basically robbed her life from her, 23 years of it. He isnt thinking about all the procedures and medications that her mother made her endure. That had to be a living hell. I cant even imagine having a feeding tube forced on me and surgery's. That mother stole her entire childhood. I am not saying she gets off free, but a manslaughter charge would of been more appropriate. Plus the fact Tony Micel says it was raging hormones that made her kill her mother is ridiculous. She wasnt a 15 year old boy she was 23 years old. More like she was mentally, physically abused and that is what made her do it.

[@Ren-gt8ov]

She was a hostage, but obviously not completely all there. Neither was Nick, he has no excuse. He straight up murdered the mom because he was told to do so. Both are to blame, yes it was a “hostage” situation, but what both of them did is still very much illegal. They planned the death of a women, a terrible nasty one, and then proceeded with it. They shouldn’t be set free, but she should receive help to rehabilitate her

[@TheAnantaSesa]

+Daniel Santos; you want to blame a girl who was screwed up by the tormenter she eventually had killed. That daughter was not safe for much longer and society had failed her. She had no incentive to follow an ethical code towards people who were unethical to her. If she gets treated like an animal in prison then it would be fair game for her to act like an animal in retaliation towards those abusers. It's shameful that another human as you would denigrate this poor fellow earthling for her desperate choice. Plus the conditions are not the same now. She can finally speak her mind to others and not be so estranged as to see no other choice but to murder a censoring captor who administers poison regularly and was even liable to murder that daughter in time to hide the truth and escape justice. Gypsy is a hero as much as a military veteran. One less terrorist in our midst thanks to her and Nick.

Gypsy should have been sent to a psychiatric hospital to help her cope with her abusive past and learn to live a normal life. She clearly isn't a danger to the general public and it's outrageous that she's locked up alongside hardened criminals.

[@Hi-kl4mu]

@InfusedSediment well yeah just saying that by itself obviously makes her seem 100% guilty but she was tortured for 23 years. personally i can't blame her. what else could she have done? just let her mother treat her like a toy for the rest of her life? murder probably wasn't the best thing to do but her mother definitely needed to be punished somehow. she didn't just plan the murder of her mother, she planned the murder of a crazy, evil, abusive liar.

This is such a difficult case.

[@mickeymouse12678]

I didn't even think about the movie thing, but that's actually a good point. She had hardly any education besides the children's programs she would watch on TV. She didn't have much in the way of learning a more complicated morality system beyond this. In many of those programs, the prince saves the girl. She convinced Nick to be her hero in shining armor and it's really sad that both of their lives end up being wasted due to lack of leniency.

[@brandonxmoody]

That’s a good point. Her mindset about good and evil probably was probably very juvenile.

[@maneckineckbeard1749]

Agree 100% that one of the great tragedies of this case is that Dee Dee never had the chance to be tried & convicted (hopefully very harshly, IMO) for the literal lifetime of abuse & torture to which she subjected her helpless daughter. Her death prevented gypsy from ever truly receiving the justice she so badly deserved. Also, I agree about the Disney-fication of Gypsy's worldview. She was raised to sincerely believe in an ostensible world in which the hero always rescues the captive princess-in-distress and then ultimately triumphs over the villain, whereupon the two of them live happily ever after in an ideal romantic fantasy: the end, roll credits. This relentlessly imposed worldview most likely left her without either a rational, functional moral compass or the capacity to conceptualize any real-world consequences of her actions. I think her entire life with Dee Dee can be summed up by the psychological concept of "learned helplessness." The whole thing is immeasurably unjust & tragic in so many ways, on so many levels.

It isn’t mentioned here but Gypsy DID run away once and her mom tracked her down & I believe handcuffed her to the bed. There was also at least one (maybe multiple, I don’t recall) wellness checks made by the police looking into Gypsy being abused & Deedee charmed them away.

How can you prove 1st degree murder in a case where you can not prove how someone died. And when there is ANY doubt, the jury is required by law to find a person not guilty. The state should have changed Anthony with, disposing of the childs body and possibly neglect that resulted in death. But they over reached due to public opinion and outrage. Had they charged her with what they could prove, she would still be in prison today. Where she belongs. After throwing her baby away like so much trash.

[@taylorXXreanne]

Have two feeding tubes (one into my stomach, one into my intestines) and they are torturous. Placing a tube into the intestines is an extremely hard surgery, and placing one into the stomach isn’t near as difficult but is extremely painful. Feeding tubes are usually held in by a balloon which can be inflated and deflated from the outside. For a stomach tube, they deflate it pull the old tube out, put the new one in, inflate the balloon and send you on your way. This is done every 4-6 months. They usually leak quite a bit and your stomach acid eats your skin. An intestinal tube is much more extensive and difficult to change. Usually done under live x-ray and the doctor uses a guide wire to get the tube down to into the intestines and to lay correctly. Tubes suck. I can’t imagine having to deal with them and all the pain and trouble they cause when you don’t need them and know you don’t.

[@kaylee1769]

I have GJ tube too, the surgery was extremely rough!!! I have a serious stomach disease and it took me years to get doctors to take me seriously about getting one, so I don’t understand why she had that surgery with no proof of actually needing one.

The doctors that knew nothing was wrong with Gypsy and had suspicions about Dee Dee had a responsibility to report their suspicions and they didn't. They did nothing and therefore in my opinion they allowed the medical abuse to continue by being so irresponsible in not reporting their suspicions.

[@ClairePower-sv9mt]

DeeDee was not medically abusing her.

[@hollyhansen8428]

She already served 23 years growing up being tortured and abused. I was a leukemia nurse and I’ve seen what those patients go through. I firstly can’t believe she got those treatments, like what quack physician ordered these tests and meds? I think her punishment is appropriate, if maybe even a little much. That poor girl.

[@eliskawiesnerva7353]

I know people might say that murder was also kinda Gypsy's fault (well obviously, cause she was involved in that murder), but look at it from different angle... this girl was drugged with pills everyday, locked home like in prison and forced to act like she's handicapped. Imagine living like this for years, you would be as frustrated as her. Things like this also stick with you for the rest of your life. So.. I think Gypsy is actually a really sweet girl, but life's been rough with her. All she wanted is to be finally free and live her life.

[@jofretz9817]

This woman was put under such and incredible amount of torture and duress there is absolutely no way that either of them should be doing time...they are both mentally disabled or were at the time of the crime.

[@jermwerm2575]

If you watched any of her interviews, she comes across as such a sweet girl. I felt so bad for her, she doesn't deserve her 10 year sentance

I feel the same

[@kaitlintroyer3736]

Same i agree but also gotten into rehab or gotten counseling so she can heal 😔 it's so sad what happened 💔

[@Chelsea.Stevie]

I always had a feeling that gypsy wasn't sick....and her mother was jus faking everything. before I even found out the real story like a lot of years ago... my moms a nurse amd I just...knew what kids she took care of were just like ghosts mom deacribed... but acted nothing like gypsy...of course I kept and open mind bc it's sad but I deep down just knew that this poor girl was goin through it..

[@-mayceewoodward-1256]

They definitely didn’t deserve to go to jail. Gypsy was trapped and she only saw one way out, killing her mom. She definitely needs to go to rehab because this is truly traumatizing.

[@jeanninebrayall4247]

Obviously it's because she wanted gypsy to believe she was sick

[@kachiggakween]

@@jeanninebrayall4247 she probably thought that either her mom would kill her unless she would kill her mom first

[@feodorawicked5014]

@Honey D Rehab for only having a kindergartner education, being heavily drugged for over half her life, and being severely abused. Gypsy didn't even know her real age, and she had no way to get out of her situation since everyone thought she had brain trauma. No one's saying she isn't guilty of the crime or justifying it in any sense, they just don't want Gypsy to suffer her entire life from a mistake that she wasn't in the right mindset to properly think out.

[@feodorawicked5014]

@Honey D Except for the fact that she was very much physically abused. The one time she tried to escape her mother chained her to a bed for two weeks. She'd beat her, hit her with weapons, and slap her. She was heavily medicated and even went through cancer treatments, which are aggressive and already weaken a person's body. Also, even if she did manage to somewhat educate herself, it was nearly close to the level of which she should've had, and the excuse of "she could've educate herself" is BS because Dee Dee was very protective and kept close watch on her. Not only that, but that's going off the idea that a person with that regressed of a mind state would even be able to educate herself properly in the first place. No matter what your excuse is, Gypsy was basically being held hostage and was not in the right mind state to make rational decisions. No one is saying that Gypsy is innocent of murder. People just want her to receive the education she deserves and the mental help she deserves. None of which can be adequately provided whilst in prison. There are plenty of cases in which people commit murder and are given the treatment that they need instead of just rotting in a prison cell. Society as a whole failed Gypsy, she literally had no other choice at that point, and it was likely that Dee Dee was eventually going to kill her. God the lengths some people go through to victim blame.

[@feodorawicked5014]

@Honey D Taking a bunch of over the counter medication is also extremely bad. Mixing medications can be harmful. There's no evidence that suggests that Gypsy is lying about anything, we're taking her word over the mother who literally starved her mother to death. And, once again, "educating herself pretty well" is a BS statement since you literally can't expect someone who stopped having a proper education in kindergarten to be able to educate herself even close to properly. Also, it's a bit ironic you're telling me to keep to the facts when part of your argument is going off your own intuition and what you think. Unless you have any evidence to prove Dee Dee wasn't abusive, then most people will side with the person claiming it. You're literally downplaying the extreme trauma a situation like this would cause, and downplaying the effects of various OTC medications can do when abused.

[@heatherdubya]

She shouldn’t have gotten a single second in her sentence. She has already suffered a massive portion of her life due to some insanely intense abuse.

[@emilyperon8531]

She tried to escape but got caught, beaten, and tied to her bed for weeks. I cant even believe that Dee Dee would do this to her own daughter. Gypsy does not deserve jail time, she needs therapy.

I see it as self defense. She totally was taken hostage. If someone had a child and kept them in a cage and the child got out and killed had parent it would be self defense. That's how I see this

[@kitkat-yw6dc]

hailey baker - sorry this is kinda late since i recently stumbled upon this video- but self defense is only reasonable when the person is in immediate threat in that moment in time. if she didn't have a knife to her throat or gun to her head it wasn't self defense, and especially not if she sent someone to do the dirty work for her. nonetheless, her sick mother is beyond evil. that word holds no power to all the actions she's done to the people around her.

She did. She definitely, did. The little girl was heavily abused and could’ve been dead if she wouldn’t have gotten away. Of course being stabbed is not the way to go but... to be heavily abused and used for money and treated differently, to then find out that your mother lied to you your whole life and used you for money and could’ve killed you.
