Stampin' Up Scandal: The Shanna Gardner-Fernandez Case | Truth UnCoiled

[@ruthjames715]

it's a shame that the children are having no contact with Jared's parents.

[@lisakaniho786]

I feel said for Jared’s family. I think his family should be able to see the twins. Stampin up daughter needs to pay for her crime.

[@cmsylvester2408]

Shanna pleading innocent sounds like Tonya Harding claiming she had nothing to do with the Nancy Kerrigan assault. I do not blame her parents, however it's completely unjustified and shameful to cut off the paternal grandparents from seeing their grandchildren.

[@JaneB-u1z]

My comment is based on being a customer and demonstrator since 2006. The Gardner family is a huge Mormon clan. They have always represented themselves as a wholesome, devout, and industrious company. Some one commented that the person posting the video is “dragging the company through the mud”. I prefer to spend my money with companies that don’t have scandals like this. It doesn’t surprise me that the Gardners would pay for her legal fees.

I love the SU products but I will not support a company who will use my money to support and defend a murderer. If she is proven innocent, then I’ll consider it.

[@kathyennis2411]

I love paper crafts, but this is why I refuse to buy any stampin' up products. I refuse to support Shana's family while they refuse to allow the Bridegan family access to their grandchildren. This just seems like another Markel-Adelson case. Shana's family may not be as involved as the Adelson's were in Dan Markel's murder, but they are so wealthy they will do anything to prevent her from being prosecuted and found guilty of her involvement in plotting the murder.

[@pattyh2410]

I am with ya. I had purchased SU products for 20 years. When the murder came to light I ended my demo and customer relationship with them.

[@rhondaschaffer1297]

This is where your money is being spent if you purchase Stampin’ Up products. The trial shouldn’t be called that, as that is wrong, but I for won’t won’t be giving them any of my money. I don’t have to support her defense if I know where the money is coming from. Not to mention I’ve heard there are so many people leaving Stampin’ Up because they know Shanna is guilty and can’t support the company either.

[@LydiaMatthews5]

in YOUR opinion. It's not sensible to put the Stampin' Up Company OR her family in any of this.🙄

[@MissMala]

I’m with you on that one!

[@cindystokes8237]

NO one that works at SU anything more than you or I.

[@cathyscraftylife1309]

You can tell who are demonstrators. They are screaming to save their over priced crafting supplies… lol. I used them as well but can’t support a family that acts like this. I feel bad for the demonstrators too because when the trial happens, there will most likely be back lash. I can’t believe close to my heart sold out to them but I have heard that Shelly and the gang are ruthless business owners. Hidden true crime had a huge deep dive on them .

[@pattyh2410]

I learned about the SU mess through Hidden True Crime. They have provided in-depth coverage of this, including hearings to date. I was shocked by the revelations. Shanna took Jared to court many times, trying to change the custody agreement so that she could move the twins out of Florida. Guess who paid for alI of those court proceedings...mommy and daddy. Mommy and daddy bought the Washington house and moved Shanna and the twins there. It amazes me how much they have enabled her. I agree, I feel bad for the demonstrators and the employees who will have to deal with the likely fall out. The trial will probably be all over the internet and TV.

[@fritziskunterbunteschaos9173]

I'm not.❤ Actually i will resign because of this as soon as I don't have a team anymore that needs help. Which will be by next quarter

[@cynthiahogue5762]

How awful, especially for those poor children. My granddaughter was traumatized by her parents' fights and subsequent divorce. She would run into the house and hide behind my bed whenever her parents fought. She developed health issues from all of the stress.

[@judyjones3359]

This is not a Stampin Up ( a corporation) murder. It was a human who committed the murder.

[@NancyD2]

Who was and is being funded by SU money.

[@pattyh2410]

There was a hearing a couple of weeks ago. Jose Baez is trying hard to get Shanna out of jail. Momma’s money is footing the bill, so trial cost is no issue.

[@TinaMcconnaughy]

Same attorney that defended Casey Anthony, and we all know how that went

[@pattyh2410]

@@TinaMcconnaughy I know. We will see if the evidence is there.

[@suemitchell7739]

Not sure why you call it the Stampin' up murder... It had nothing to do with Stampin' up. It was the daughter of the Stampin' up founder, but no one within Stampin' up had anything to do with it. Why isnt it just called the Jared Bridegan murder? Are their Children in danger or in the custody of loving grandparents? I am trying it understand what you are saying.

[@NancyD2]

Stampin' Up money is funding her defense. These "loving grandparents" raised someone who thought murdering the father of her children was a fine idea AND..... and let me be VERY CLEAR that this is the exact OPPOSITE of "loving", they are not giving those children a relationship with THEIR MURDERED FATHER'S FAMILY. Regardless of who did what, those children's father WAS in fact MURDERED. THEY have the right to a relationship with their grandparents.

[@ruthieallen-hamilton3015]

Question ….. if your child did something horrendous would you be held responsible for it ? I hope not! Kids grow into adults who are to be accountable for their own actions. And yes if I had the money the the gardeners have it too would help my child with costs …. Get a grip guys!

[@rubydoty1875]

Wow! Stampin’ Up! as company should not be drug into this, just because of one of the owner’s decisions!

[@fritziskunterbunteschaos9173]

With a main focus on family and values then maybe Shelly should step down as a board member.

[@LydiaMatthews5]

@@fritziskunterbunteschaos9173 why who did she kill?

[@JaneB-u1z]

@@LydiaMatthews5 if you raise a child that turns out to be a killer, there should be some introspection. Too many kids usually means that someone isn’t getting the attention they need. The Gardners have always showed off their huge clan with group photo in the catalog and what devout Mormons they are by praying at the convention. Shanna was probably handed anything she wanted. .

[@Marysstampincafe]

I think any family would want to protect children from any of this. None of us can assume intentions of the grandparents in moving the children.

[@NancyD2]

Protect them from.....having a relationship with their murdered father's family? Explain that to me like I'm five.

[@ninawilliams2608]

She will get off as her attorney got Casey ANthony off. Money will pay for her freedom.

[@NancyD2]

If you have your child(ren)'s other parent killed, YOUR FAMILY does not get custody. That should be the rule. CLEARLY you, the parents of someone who had someone murdered, failed in instilling the idea that YOU DON'T DO THAT. Explains why SU stuff is so damn expensive......

[@KarieBeglauMemoryINKers]

I raised my children to do right. Some did, some did not. Same up bringing. I as the mother and my business have no responsibility for my ADULT children!! Yes, the Garners are rich and can help their grandchildren. That has NOTHING to do with their business. You're an attention grabbing hack!

[@LFC4178]

You can't blame parents because their adult children decided to commit a heinous crime, nor does it mean they are evil and shouldn't have access to their grandchildren. Coincidentally, the mother’s family shouldn't keep the kids away from their father’s family. However, we don't know the inner workings of this family or if there are legitimate reasons for keeping the kids away. The main reason is that they are probably fearful that Jared’s family will disappear with the kids because they feel their former daughter-in-law is a murderer. It's a tragic story all around.

[@chuzelife]

This is inflammatory to drag SU into this video title and story. The whole story is tragic.

[@NancyD2]

But accurate.

[@lisarutherford369]

Tragic?! No kidding!!! For the kids & Jared's family. His kids weren't allowed to attend their Dad's funeral!! Who does that? Guilty people, that's who does that.

[@lisetabercrittersninkdesig7911]

You should be ashamed of yourself for implicating the entire family because of the stupidity of one family member. And saying that Shelli Gardner paid for it? Not a chance

[@cathyscraftylife1309]

You need to catch up on the Dan Markel case. Very similar.

[@SingleMomOfOne]

nice mormons

[@Louisianagirl_1]

I’m NOT a Stampin’ Up demonstrator!!! YOU are saying “I think” a lot, maybe you NEED TO GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT. The company Stampin’ Up HAD NOTHING to do with this incident. YOU ARE JUST AFTER VIEWS and YOU are using the company Stampin’ Up to get views.

[@fritziskunterbunteschaos9173]

Your grasp on the facts is tenuous at best. Did you even follow the case or check the court and police reports or follow the case before sitting down and filming this? This has been the sketchiest and most irreverent video I have seen on this trial and murder since Shanna has been arrested last august.

[@MrsSeaHag]

How is this a Stampin’ Up murder? That is completely false on all levels. This has nothing to do with Stampin’ Up. Disgusting that you want to drag a company thru the mud for headlines.

[@pattyh2410]

@@MrsSeaHag she could have worded it differently (stampin up murder), but she told the facts of the case. It is a Stampin Up scandal for sure. Shelli and Sterling are using Stampin Up profits (yes it’s their money to do with what they will) to fund the trial, relocated Shanna and the twins (post murder) to Washington State (purchased the home), and continue to keep the twins from their siblings. It is very sad and very much a Stampin Up scandal.

[@janedoe6704]

The mom is the owner of stampin up and it is implicated that she provided the money for the murder. She also has been sending miscommunications to her employees about it to make her family look good and using it as a way to sell stuff. The mom is also the one that will not allow her grandkids to see their family.

[@raehenderson]

Amen! She was not part of Stampin'Up! the company. And even had she been you do not defame an entire company and the thousands of wonderful Demonstrators who love to create and share!

[@pattyh2410]

@@janedoe6704 Shelli and Sterling provided a healthy monthly stipend to Shanna, which is where the money came from. The checks were written from Shanna's trust.

[@cathyscraftylife1309]

I wonder if Shelly and sterling knew about it. And of course they won’t let the kids see their half siblings. The owners of stampin up are not nice people. Sounds like Dan Markel’s case.

[@jjellii1228]

This is not a Stampin Up Scandal! It is not right to imply that the Stampin Up business is any way involved just because the owners daughter is being investigated in a murder

[@pattyh2410]

@@jjellii1228 I believe the reason that it is a Stampin Up scandal is because Stampin Up profits are funding the daughter’s trial and keeping the twins away from their siblings-twins in Washington State, siblings in Florida (Stampin Up profits purchased the house in Washington so Shanna could move there with the twins).
