    • @sitcomsTV

      You say the truth but you don't understand you have no evidence that is true.
      That is a perception. From a bias daughter (that made no known efford to visit her dad in person - by the way). It doesn't even match what happens next after they loose the farm and Daniele moves to her parent's ranch. It sounds to me that it was the father himself that did not pick up the phone or had any idea of calling his daughter. One would easily blame a stepmother but... it does not fit her profile. She didn't start spending money! I think the father, fearing the daughter intentions were to get her hands of some of that million dollar's money - cut her off.
      Knowing that the suspitions would fall not on him, but on the new person - and that pleased him because it isolates the victim a lot more.
      Danielle was isolated from close friends and family. What goes on behing close doors can suprise many. I belive her because everything in her behavior matches the behavior of true trauma victims. SOciety just isn't enough enlighted about this yet, making victims of abuse suffer even more, putting them in jail and hating them.

      So... did the system got it wright?
      Is it that simple?
      She basically pointed the finger to herself, altough innicially not saying it so. If you had police in your home to search for a corpse, would you point out to were the corpse is and say: Don't search there?
      Then police as to return with a document to search there and the body is still there? There was no efford to remove it? Like if it was DENIAL IT had happen. As if it was preferible to believe it was an accident with a.. dog? No one would believe this. This wan't calculated. This happen as an accident. The body put aside as if to deny reality... a reality that was not wished for. Body put in a improvised spot the first the eyes seen as viable.

      @@vanessascott4351 The "he deserved what he got" statement, made me angry, because I think he was the victim here all along and seemed to be controlled and manipulated on a regular basis. And then for the anonymous woman to claim this and then not even willing to tell her real name in public make me doubt her. Who is she scared of; Ray? Well, he is murdered. If you do not want your face on tv, oké, I get that, would not like that either, but not even willing to state a first name, yet making one up? No. I can't say for 100% Ray was néver ever abusive, I was never around, but all the signs by info given in the doc show Ray as at least an okay guy that let his wife play boss over him and he went along with it. It makes it more realistic that he never physically abused her. If she indeed had injuries, that could've come from being thrown off a horse. All in all, before this becomes a book, I agree with your assessments.

Nobody deserves to be murdered in that way. If you work with 12-1500 lb horses every day 6 to 8 hrs a day you’re going to get banged up from time to time that’s just part of the job. Dani was also a sick monster for trying to eliminate Ray’s daughter and grandchildren out of his life. But I guess according to Dani and the sick mail carrier he still deserved to die. It’s women like this who make it harder for women who truly are being abused and actually have to do what they have to to defend themselves.

    Unless this man had a documented history of abusing women, I do not believe her.

She was so focused on his money that she isolated him from his daughter and grandkids. I don’t believe this was self defense. By the end she hated him so much, that’s why not 2 or 3 bullets. She reloaded and emptied the gun a second time. That is cold blooded. The only person in rays whole lifetime they could find to say there was abuse was not a woman he was involved with, it is a mail carrier and the wife’s boyfriend? Does not pass the sniff test. And telling his mother the dog killed him, that’s cruel and sick. She strikes me as a narcissist sociopath…he Ray, was in her way.

Being a survivor of abuse, it starts early after people move into together, and the SO has total control over the victim. They usually don’t start suddenly, after you’ve reached your 60’s. In addition, there is no evidence that he was so controlling in other traits of an abuser, like isolation, allowing participation with her desired activities, etc. She is not only disrespectful to true victims of abuse, she is also causing doubt in people as to whether real victims are believed 🤬🤬🤬.

      I believe she is a true victim of abuse. Your line of tough as holes on it. He did not isolate her? Based on what do you clame it? Have you seen anyone here speaking for her? A close friend? A family member? Did this investigation not even bodered to go and check HER SIDE of the story??
      Not having evidence of first wife abuse does not mean anything. There are many cases of people living their all lives together with constant abused being kept out of knowledge of everyone. Specially if they live in an isolated house without neighbors around.
      Have you noticed - as a surviver of abuse - how her deminure and appearance CHANGED before and after? How she seems drainned of her sould? As a survivor yourself (I don't know the degree) can't you spot in there a red flag? Her all behavior, to me, fits the profile.
      Also, people always smile and joke and try to have fun when in parties or events. Abusers also like to keep a fasade of "good partners" they allow, as long as they go along, to a certain degree of activities. At the beginning at least. That re-enactment thing seems to me to be some sort of very rare occasional event. Did you noticed they only had THAT GROUP to speak about the couple? Were are the other people a couple should meet around their life time? Neighbors? None. OK. Store clearks? None? OK... Some club? Some close friend of the family?
      This investigation had to resort to just this people.... I guess because not many others were available. People that knew the couple not very closely, just in that context. A context that is only available because Danielle liked to do that activity. So... was she the one isolating him or was it the other way around? Were are his activities?
      One of this people even said Danielle WAS NOT materialistic. Then they cut to the daughter - who to me seemed to jump to the conclusion IT WAS NOT HER FATHER that cut her off (maybe fearing she would want a peace of that million) but the "evil" step mom. By the way... he lost no time finding himself a replacement. And aimed to a younfer one. This is so commom in predadors that I... really... so many signs she can easily be a VICTIM...
      Well.... that's how I see it.

    The second I heard she said they can search everywhere except that one box, I was like, well that's were she stashed that poor, dead man. How dumb can she be? She might as well have put a sign saying "dead body inside" if she didn't think the foul odor and the flies would give it away.

    'They were not evidence of trying to hide a crime, they were evidence of trauma". Are you freakin kidding me! How can he say that with a straight face.

    The way she tells the story of his abuse is so matter of fact and doesn’t sound at all like someone who has severe trauma or was in fear for their life. Also what an idiot. “Don’t look in the box”.

    Sketchy Lawyer: She believed he could come back and get her, even after he was obviously dead.
    Interviewer: Like some horror movie…rise from the dead and come after her?!
    😂 You can’t make these defense arguments up.

    She was a top shooter and it didn't occur to her to shoot him in the knee to disable him so she could run to her vehicle? I would look into that mail carrier. I bet they'd find some abuse in her background which would explain why she sided so strongly with Dani. Why is she allowed to condemn Ray on tv with no evidence. I'd look into suing her.
