That was 100% my takeaway about AH. She was seeking security and comfort and seems to have found a lot of tranquility and ease in a different city/country where she's not followed by her past there.I agree it's a very unusual case. I've never seen one that had so many potential POI with so many potential motives. I really hope the adult children understand that their lives as adults doesn't have to be full of chaos; they can chose a different path, and it sounds as if they are.
Amateur opinion and speculation
As for CB, I was surprised to learn AH went to live with her. I would have thought her grandmother would have invited her in since BH had just recently kicked CB out of her own home. CB can't have had a great place to live given her fluctuating circumstances. It seems at a certain point she moved to Florida.
AH's dynamic with grandmother and family was not thoroughly explored in the documentary even though AH did go to visit everyone in the family at the grandmother's house eventually. And I remember one of the early episodes, someone in that part of the family, whether it was BH's mom or sister, said something like "AH is so different now." They made some offhand comment that suggested there was a history of the family treating her poorly. I tend to wonder if other members of the family agreed with CB or if CB tried to sway them and it wasn't in the series.
It's so wild that BH helped raise CB's child as his guardian, and then later on CB had to finish out raising AH as her guardian. Did CB volunteer for that role? Did she want to play AH's guardian even though she is accusing her of murder in the series? Or was there something written somewhere that said BH wanted her children to go CB in the event of tragedy? Financially, it's a strange choice all around. I don't know enough about custody matters in these situations where you have a minor and multiple family members with the means to take someone in. But IMO it's odd the person with seemingly the fewest means to care for someone was selected.
