Description Summary for the video: Dear Zachary is about the life and death of Andrew Bagby told by the filmmaker and close friend Kurt Kuenne who made this to memorialize him. A deeply personal documentary made with genuine love and pain that you will never forget. It is a film like no other.

My Review:

This review contains spoilers.

I had heard about this for years and mainly heard that there was a twist. I figured the twist would be Shirley wasn't the killer and that the killer was one of the friends being interviewed during production. Course once I heard even the beginning of Shirley's answers, behavior, and the evidence against her I knew she committed the crime.

So I watched it and as I was watching it I suddenly thought to myself "Is Zachary dead" and I said it can't be because how and why would they finish this documentary as that would be very sad. I at first thought maybe he had an unknown disease that cut his life short or died in some tragic accident. Then another thought came to me. Where is Shirley? I got a bad feeling. Then when she was allowed out, I remember saying "Wait, what if she kills him?"

I study Criminology and I've had a long standing beef with Canadian investigations and their justice system. So the fact it's Canada didn't surprise me. Who are these judges anyway? So Shirley had every red flag behavior known to man. The most dangerous type of offender has a history of stalking. Andrew was overkilled. She was obsessive. I even remember saying early on, when she first left the I LOVE YOU message to Zachary is sounded phony, creepy, and with no warmth of any kind or sincerity.

Her psychiatrist posting her bail. I'm just going to point out the obvious. They were sleeping together. Very unprofessional behavior and I've never heard of a shrink bailing out a patient being accused of murder. Appalling.

It was a little hard to follow at the beginning, but it got better as it progressed. Zachary's blood is on that judge's hands and anyone involved with her release. Here in America, she'd have never been released.

What are your thoughts on this documentary?

All opinions are welcome. Just wondering what you think of a situation where a woman meets a guy friend at a motel but not for sex, and gets drugged by him, is she at fault?

I just remember a victim, and other victims or Harvey Weinstein met with him, not for sex, but for business at a hotel. And people supported her due to audio of him being a creep. And the actor who accused Asia Argento met her at a hotel after exchanging graphic images and texts he sent to her, then he claimed rape. He got endless support because he was 17. She said she didn't know how old he was and thought he was around 20. I'm not defending anyone just laying out the facts. These are examples.

So just asking, not everyone meets for intercourse at a motel. Back in the day I had friends that would rent a room and invite multiple people over and listen to music, smoke pot, and watch movies. The law and conservatives though think that a woman gets exactly what she deserved if she is attacked. Even if it's a long time trusted friend or boyfriend or family member. And cuz you were alone with him. In most people's minds, motels are for intercourse only aka booty calls. Do you agree?

Carl Douglas was not on my bad side until episode 3 when he stated nobody would kill two people in such a brutal way and be able to get onto an airplane. Um... what? There was a man who literally brought his CHILDREN to commit a crime where he brutalized a woman, Sexually assaulting her while bound, then killing her. The victim had grand kids or something so toys were out and they had been played with. They fingerprinted the toy, and it matched the killer's child's prints. Douglas then goes on to say "you'd have to be a sociopath" Yes, sir. Has he ever seen the unaired interview called IF I DID IT where O.J. admits to it in a hypothetical way. The laughing, the knowledge only the killer would know, the look in his eye. Watch the behavior panel that analyzed that interview. It was unbelievably creepy. If he can watch that and think that's not a sociopath, then I really don't buy anything he says anymore. The interviewer went on to say, after the segment was done filming, O.J came up to her and said "You started out not liking me didn't you. I bet you like me now right" Her mind was blown. Reminds me of the scene in Tootsie when that misogynistic arrogant director says hey how come you don't like me? I can make any woman like me. This is a classic sociopath.

I'm not really stating whether or not M,J was guilty or innocent here but I'd like to point out when the prosecution asked the ones on the stand who said nothing happened if it happened in their sleep is actually based on reality. Alot of pedophiles do it that way. Watch ABDUCTED IN PLAIN SIGHT on netflix. Robert Berchtold convinced the parents to let him sleep with their daughter, who was a child, and he was repeatedly drugging her. Whether it's booze or pills or both. This is common. Look up Westley Allan Dodd, who became a child killer. He babysat for free at age 13, and molested kids that were 3 in their sleep and documented it in his disgusting journal. This is a very strong possibility and didn't that one kid state on the stand, the brother, he saw his brother Gavin look "unconscious" interesting word there actually. Just sayin'

Debbie Rowe was never going to testify against MJ... I can't believe the DA fell for this. Wow they played dirty in this one. This was all planned to help out MJ. She had too much to lose for one thing. Surprised they didn't see this coming.

This is my personal opinion. What is yours?

When BANSHEE aired, many did not have that channel called Cinemax. And the show was not promoted well. It's very underrated. I honestly enjoyed it more than Sons of Anarchy!

There are really only a handful of excellent true crime movies out there.

Bully 2001 by Larry Clark is one of the rawest most realistic true crime films ever made. I appreciate the extra mile Clark went to make this picture (coming from a student of Criminology)

the actual same courtroom the real perpetrators sat in

Description Summary for the video: Narrates the 1984 McDonald's Massacre, where a man walked into a San Diego fast food restaurant and shot forty men, women, and children. It offers valuable educational content through previously unseen footage and survivor interviews that effectively document this tragedy's historical significance.

My Review:

One of the saddest documentaries I've ever seen. This documentary is only worth the watch for the survivors, who unfortunately had to suffer even further and endure deceptive and unprofessional behavior and odd questions from the director Charlie Minn who has done other shooting documentaries. He is all about drama and being a sensationalist. I was stunned by the statements he made blaming police and his questions kept getting weirder. He was very cold and this was poor filmmaking, if u can even call it that. Unprofessional camerawork, and biased self serving haphazard approach. He actually asked a survivor: "So, if your loved one was here right now, what would you say to them" Is he for real? None of your business dude. I've never heard a director of a documentary ask this before. But hey, he got his dramatic moment right by making them cry?

Minn managed to get those who appear on camera to sign waivers, which is standard practice for television but what he didn't do was act in good faith. Pretty much everyone who is still in the film tried to back out but a contract is a contract. This was raw exploitation of people involved in a tragedy. He lied to the families of survivors and the families of the deceased as well and they basically ran him out of town after one out of two days of filming poorly staged interviews and asking all the wrong questions.

If you're seen it, what are your thoughts? What's crazy is I rarely get offended by documentaries but he made my blood boil and I left a negative review. Something I didn't even do for Goodnight, sugar babe, which was also very unprofessional and amateurish and weird as hell and didn't focus very much on the victim.

I still recommend watching. These people are amazing and deserve to be heard. Both the survivors and victims will always be heroes. I was very moved by their bravery and selflessness.

I've lived a wild and weird life and for whatever reason I use to randomly bump into a celebrity. It happened to me so much I lost track. One celebrity I actually ran into TWICE in the SAME shopping center and the first time it was on Halloween and his movie he's most famous for was a halloween horror film which I saw in theaters lol If you want to know more just ask me. I have many funny stories.

However, the weirdest and most unpleasant: Ron Jeremy, the adult film star. I actually forgot how many cameo's that guy had in films alone, and then there was the song by Sublime that mentions him because they partied together. I've actually seen comments online where fans of Ron are saying his victims were all lying. No they were not. It's all true. I wish people warned me first about him. I had never seen any of his adult films. My friend's cousin knew him and they said hey do you wanna meet and hang out with Ron Jeremy, and I said sure. It was a haunting experience. I still have the pictures but I am reluctant to share them on here. He was also seen leaving Corey Feldman's house parties. He'd be in prison if his dementia hadn't gotten so bad. They couldn't convict him due to his mental decline. My experience was pretty bad and traumatizing but what his other victims went through was far worse and those ladies deserve justice.

So what's the weirdest or most unpleasant celebrity encounter you've had?

Summary of the video (submission statement): The discovery of the mutilated body of a mentally challenged young mother begins a journey into madness that is so unbelievable the mastermind behind the crime ultimately got away with murder. This is the case of Vera Jo Reigle.

I'd like to discuss this extremely disturbing documentary from 2020 called Goodnight, Sugar Babe: The Killing of Vera Jo Reigle. This documentary barely discussed Vera Jo and instead they interviewed very disturbed people who were complicit in the crime. Most of them evaded prosecution so this not only was an extremely distressing documentary but it was infuriating. Has anyone seen this and what did you think of it?

Shannon's interrogation on YT, the uncensored version, is one of the most disturbing interrogations I ever seen. How was she not in prison? She orchestrated the whole thing. This docu gave me nightmares. Very strange case and one of the most vicious crimes you can ever learn about. The documentary should have focused on the victim but it was a secondary topic. I was mortified and horrified by this documentary. I was actually reading reviews of it and this is the true crime community being traumatized. That's when you know you have one twisted film. This is the worst case of human depravity.
