Customer Reviews
Excellent production quality
Season 1 is a good reminder that if your boyfriend f----s off with not a thought for you, do not spend one more minute on him. "The not knowing could take your sanity" isnt true; knowing the scale of his betrayal will be MUCH worse.
Oh My!
Wow, this is unbelievable! Thank you for educating me about this.
WILD
This story was WILD. I loved every second of it and I feel so much for those women affected by this great miscarriage of justice. I mean wow.
