That's the typical response of a narcissist - nothing is ever their fault, it's always somebody else's fault.

Being eligible for parole doesn't mean it will be granted. I think that even if she is in her eighties (assuming she lives that long) she will still be extremely dangerous. The judge noted her lack of remorse: that won't change no matter how long she's incarcerated. Sorry she got caught? Yes...

But DM left the position with a law firm to become a professor several years before he even met WA. If DA wanted a millionaire for her daughter, it should have become obvious it wasn't going to be DM.

I'm convinced that DA aka Evil Grandma was the one who came up with the plan to kill Dan, and WA, CA and HA went along with it because - well, that's what they had always done, go along with whatever WA wanted.

If DA was so distraught at not seeing her grandsons on a regular basis, why didn't she and HA buy a condo or small house in Tallahassee? They could have divided their time between there and Miami.

Yes, as soon as LE saw the video footage of the parking lot at the gym, it would have been clear what was happening. The camera captured DM's car driving into the lot and another car following not too far behind. You then saw DM getting out of his car, going into the gym, coming out about an...

Are Donna and Harvey really making faces after the judge explicitly told them not to?

Robert seems to be the only decent person in the lot, and he managed to escape Donna's toxic influence and is living far away from his relatives. The others all seem to be despicable people.

IMO she has gone through life manipulating other people, including her children, so I'm not surprised she thinks it would work on the judge, too. Guess what, Donna - the judge has seen a lot of manipulative defendants and he can see right through you. Oh, BTW, you're not that special, despite...

It sounds as if the defense (AKA Donna) is trying to pin the blame for the acrimonious divorce proceedings on DM. The reasoning seems to be, "oh, if only Dan had been reasonable and given Wendi everything she wanted right from the beginning, none of this would have happened! But no, he just had...

I'll bet DA is just itching to get up there and testify. The arrogance that we have seen on display will convince her that if she just tells her side of the story, the jurors will sympathize with her, see that the prosecutors made a terrible mistake charging her and vote to acquit her ASAP. As...
