Kenneth looks like a kind, empathetic young man. Exactly the type of person people like Sheila prey on to abuse. I'm so sorry for him and his mom. I'm certain he was his mother's heart and letting him be independent was probably a daily challenge for her.

[@missmee7210]

As the mother to 2 special needs sons, this is absolutely soul crushing. It's up to all of us to help protect those who can't protect themselves. To leave them suffering should never happen. I hope someone is still investigating who that found toe belongs to and any other potential victims. Sounds like she eventually killed every man she was with so who knows how many victims there are out there. She's evil and right where she belongs.

[@VictoriaKing-ui8mx]

I just watched this on ID. It brought so much fear in me because for eight years I was tortured physically and mentally by my payee. She was over my disability check. I drank antifreeze two years after living with her ended up in the hospital. She wouldn’t let me go. I was diagnosed with ms and she said she wouldn’t hurt me anymore but she still did. So I walked out of the house and told a woman to give me her purse or I’ll kill her. I got put in prison. That’s the only reason I’m alive. I didn’t take anything from the woman. I got arrested two minutes after telling the woman to give me the purse. I thank God for saving me

Why do so many people think that bad things can't happen in a small town????

Wow, what a sad ending for those men and the families that loved them. Had it been one of my sons she killed well lets just say Sheila would not be alive to even consider pleading insanity.

[@flossydonnellon4893]

Why didn’t the police at Walmart take this poor young man to one side and see if he was okay ?

[@wrayewenigmann3696]

I saw another report on this woman which had more details. Apparently, the Police did speak to him and asked if he was OK. He replied he was fine and wanted to stay with her, so as he was an adult, there wasn't anything the Police could legally do at that stage. This is so very sad, what an evil person she is!

[@unglueme]

From other accounts, it seemed that they made SOME attempt, but she manipulated him to say he was okay, and there was nothing they could really do. I think he "fell through the cracks" in that regard due to not being able to be classified as not competent to speak and judge for himself, since he wasn't under anyone's guardianship and had even been in the Army.

[@British1971]

They should have held him. Especially in that condition

[@grantgoldberg1663]

I'm sure she killed the original owner of the farm, too. Who knows how many people she killed. That broad is evil beyond belief.

[@Izastwin]

This freak show of an individual needs to stay behind bars never to be released. I’m so happy the two families got their justice and the children of the doctor got their farm back I just wish they got justice too for their father, as for the poor person who lost those toes. Hopefully one day it will come to light.

[@psmith2714]

Many people who have sustained head injuries from a car accident turn violent. Bobby Joe Long to name one

[@kellygrubbs915]

I was in a very serious car accident at age 2. My 2 month old brother was killed. I had a very severe head injury and had to learn to walk and talk again and was told that my eyes were swollen closed and looked like 2 purple onions and I kept asking for someone to turn the lights on. I have had horrible migraines all my life and severe depression but I’m so very grateful that those are the only issues. It truly scares me to have heard the exact thing you are saying through the years. I worry that even a hard knock to the head may change that about me but I pray it doesn’t. I have always been warned to be careful if hitting my head though because it could make me a very different person! As in becoming for lack of a better term, a vegetable. One thing I didn’t mention earlier in my comment is that the Drs had to do brain surgery to remove bone fragments from my brain. I count myself extremely fortunate to be alive. My Mother too was severely injured. 😏

[@sarahchan-reeves8829]

I've known of this case for a few years & one thing that I've never understood is, why, as a person 'at risk' or 'vulnerable adult' the police didn't do more when they saw Kenneth & Sheila at the hardware store getting the fuel cans. He looked so dangerously (for his health) mistreated. Here (🇦🇺) in any of our states, he would have been taken in on an involuntary hold (max 72hrs) where because he's mentally vulnerable (making him physically & financially vulnerable as well) they'd be making sure that he was in good health, then trying to understand from him, what their situation is (intimate relationship or carer etc), does she provide him the means of life (food, drink, medicine if prescribed & exercise). It nearly feels like the police are partly responsible for what happened to him because they had the chance to remove him from that clearly horrendous situation & they did NOTHING. They forget that all bad men (bad people, it's just the words the adage use) need to win, is for the good men to do nothing 😢

[@CobiewithaK]

Excellent series; top quality production and presentation. New sub from South Africa 🇿🇦

[@Tejah]

And it all started with a child molester. A molester that never paid for his crimes. Child molestation is a crime that has the furthest reaching ramifications for society yet it receives the lightest sentences and is brushed away like a little thing. It's never just one live that is affected or destroyed.

[@Bebedollie]

That's because sexual sin has consequences like no other sin

[@rochcarothers-ts3jx]

​@@Bebedollieyes, Adultery -death.

[@TikiTorcher]

It started with multiple child r*pists not just 1 molester. Her dad passed her around. Unlike mxn who kill, she actually had Schizoaffective disorder, a history of abuse and a history of institutionalizations. She was also sexually abused when institutionalized. She’s a product of her life and mental illness. I don’t like them sensationalizing and making her out to be evil like a male serial killer with sick fantasies. You can hear from the audio recordings she was delusional.

[@sarahwebb3125]

Not an excuse for murder.

So they find human flesh in a burn pile & don’t have enough to hold her? Then this poor guy is seen in that condition in public & no one checked on him? And was the doc’s death not investigated or @ least re-investigated? She prob killed him too. And did she even have legal right to take over the property? Especially if he had kids that possibly stood to inherit? And was the property not thoroughly searched (including digging to search for bodies) for Mike’s body & whoever the toes belonged to? Glad she got life for both men but sad one’s body was never found & @ least 1 other person’s ID never revealed. There has to be a missing person somewhere.

[@amandahirschfeld7382]

I remember watching this on the news here in NH. Crazy and Sad.

[@unglueme]

This is the first time I heard that her father actually passed her around as a sex toy to other men as a small child (I'd read he was very abusive, including sexually, but didn't know it went THAT far). This is very unusual and so traumatizing it's hard to imagine..... Unfortunately she didn't seek help -- well, she may have tried to get some help when she was younger, but after moving to live with the doctor in Maine and getting really isolated, I think her mind got really messed up and she decided to go out for revenge against all men, seeing them all as "pedophiles" because that was HER experience.

[@iriedance70]

I was close friends with someone that was passed around and also video taped for 13+yrs of her life and didn't have counseling wound up having a wonderful child and being was an outstanding friend went to collage. Not everyone who has atrocities done to them becomes a monster. We are all different. My heart breaks for the victims and the victims families. She should never see the light of day again

[@sarahwebb3125]

Child abuse is horrible & unacceptable but no excuse to kill innocent people. And when ppl cover their crimes they know what they’re doing. Sad but simple & true.

why has no one showed compassion for her father passing her around to his friends? How is a little girl without adult support supposed to process that? Making HER the villian when her FATHER destroyed her is the real injustice. WHY does abuse towards females always take a backseat? No those men didnt deserve what she did but think of that LITTLE GIRL WHO HAD NO CONTROL OVER WHAT WAS BEING DONE TO HER. WHY are those men not in jail????? She does not need prison, she needs to have someone PROTECT her and do right by her. Those MEN shouldnt get away with it either. THEY got to go on with their lives not thinking TWICE about HER life or trauma. SHE is not solely responsible here. Sickening

I've never understood the insanity defense because if you're running around killing folks then you are insane....but it shouldn't be used as a defense.

[@Periwinkleblue.]

4:26 There are certain types of evil that are truly beyond human comprehension. These must be otherworldly. One of which is a father who is supposed to love and protect his child but is the one bringing untold torment and evil upon her. Surely this twists the very foundation upon which she bases her perception of right and wrong, good and evil, love and hate. How does someone even survive something like this? While this kind of background never excuses the crimes they commit, it at least offers a glimpse into why.

There was a time when police actually took matters like this seriously. I have to blame them in this case for not acting on duty. As for the Shiela, I have no words!!!! I was molested as a child. I had a horrible childhood, and I was abused by a lot of ppl. Not sexual necessarily, but emotionally. I was never allowed to shine. I tried to do everything to please my parents. I was in a toxic relationship for 32 years. I never killed anyone I dated, but I was unsure about some of those men. I got out quick. I'm sick and tired of ppl getting away with murder, abuse, and pedophilia. This world is sick and full of evil. God had me in His Grace.
