Yes, I agree with you. I was surprised and disappointed they didn't reveal exactly where the homes were located in Westchester County. I wonder why they did that??? Thank you! I know all about Tuckahoe because when we moved from the Bronx, N.Y. when I was a kid, we moved to Tuckahoe!!

Agreed! She said she was an acct mgr?? I couldn't make "heads or tails" out of what he said he did for a living? I also didn't need to know her (their) strong feelings about not wanting to get married or have kids.

I noticed the SAME THING....I got the impression that her "brand" of marketing herself on the social scene was based upon her thin figure with very thin legs and HER BELIEF that she was "forever young" (like a fading movie star).☺️ Her hair was absolutely horrible but I bet she didn't think so. They never made ANY REFERENCE to her having a viable career and the home she bought was $600K so maybe she got a great "severance package" from her former husband. Another remark that she made stuck with me: The realtor made mention of the fact that she was living ALONE and she responded (as an aside); "I won't be living alone for long."😄

I noted that and was wondering at the same time whether they are FILMING for the show at this time????

I also live in Phoenix and worked on the defense side in Maricopa County for MANY years (including the years this case was being worked on and tried). I, also don't recall any mention of a "zombie killer" and was basically unaware of the case because I don't rely on the local media for news.

Agreed! Must have been some sort of creative "expression" she waited to access until recently. Have no understanding of why someone would present as she did; however, readily admit "different strokes for different folks." I guess the husband went along with her "creativity."

The thing that interested me about him was the fact that they ID'd his family as being in a SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS (I think hardware or a cleaning service???) in the Town and that he was working in the business. HUHHHH???? His father is (from what I gathered) a wealthy businessman in town and the son and his wife are in such DESPERATE FINANCIAL STRAITS??? How could that be? How could the family not assist the couple with a loan, or salary increase, to alleviate the cash shortfall? It wasn't as if the couple lived an "affluent" lifestyle. I'm not seeing where the financial issues originated. As an aside, I presume that the father PAID for his son's legal defense that must have been very expensive (private attorneys doing trials run up very high bills) and NOW, presumably, dad will be paying for his son's appeal of the conviction. If dad had used a similar amount of $$$ to correct the cash shortfall that apparently led his son to MURDER, it might have been a better use of his resources. Just sayin'.....

I'm unsure what the seemingly congenial husband ever saw in Meg, but I understand that personal tastes vary in whom people choose to marry. He certainly "has his work cut out for him" in trying to live with such a controlling and manipulative person as he selected. She mentioned being an RN in home health care. I think that's a perfect career for her as those who depend on her care at home will likely conform to whatever directives she gives them with little dispute. The house they chose offered a lot of potential for them to do the reno work necessary to make their investment grow. Good Luck to both of them.

Everything you mentioned plus a stylist so perhaps her outfits might evolve from the "cocktail/garden party" circuit into more of a "reporter's" sphere. Her jewelry, also, could use an upgrade/or downgrade.☺️

His Defense Attorney must have been VERY EXPENSIVE! They mentioned throughout the show that he didn't work as his mother left him a LOT of $$$. At the end of the show in kind of an Epilogue, he mentioned that he was "broke." The cost of that trial would have been out of the financial reach of most defendants. Between his EXPERT WITNESS who was pivotal to his case, and billable hours AND TALENT of his lawyer, he probably spent hundreds of thousands of $$$$. He won his freedom, which, chances are, would never have happened if he couldn't bankroll the services of those 2 remarkable women.

These two areas of practice in the legal profession are usually SEPARATE AND DISTINCT. USUALLY, it takes YEARS of study and TRAINING to excel in either of these two legal areas. It's like trusting an ortho surgeon to do a complicated surgery knowing that until recently he/she was a specialist in Cardiology for many years!!

From my experience (not personal☺️) when dumpy, unattractive MEN have a bevy of women who are interested in them, it's USUALLY because they have $$$$...lots and lots of $$$.

I thought she made an unprofessional appearance, and that would include her tattoos. Juries DO NOTICE those things! He was as "guilty as sin" . HOPEFULLY, he'll go to PUBLIC DEFENSE for his appeal so whatever $$$ he has may be transferred to his SONS!!

I believe I heard the narrator say she was married TWICE BEFORE...I'll refrain from commenting further on how or why she seemed to be a guy "magnet"...as the subject was already touched upon...😛

To me, it's the newly-minted "producers" of the reality crime TV shows we watch who believe these "podcasters/social media experts" lend something "cutting edge" or "trendy" to the story (maybe to attract younger viewers?) I also think that the podcast/media hound "experts" don't demand "contributor status" from the show that to me means they do the "spots" on the episode without getting paid. I note that in the instances when former prosecutors/investigators/reporters are used in an episode they ID them as "contributors" (or similar terms) so I assume they got paid for their services.

My belief is that he practiced criminal defense for a public defense office. He seemed on the young side so his wages (unlike more seasoned defense attys in that field) are more meager than the dollar amt would indicate because of the STEEP RISE IN PRICES across the board. Also, the wife who did Probate/Trust work, also would not necessarily earn a high income unless she was with a prestigious firm. I gathered she was in her own practice.

They (she) might WANT to leave the show; however, I'm not seeing how they could possibly maintain their lifestyle without that income rolling in year after year after year. That, of course, is ASSUMING that the show is renewed.

GREAT PICK! Deborah Roberts is EXCELLENT at what she does!!

There was absolutely, positively NO PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY between those two AND, I suspect the woman's close proximity to her doting parents will only accentuate the awkward dynamics between the couple. This did NOT seem to be a "match made in heaven."

The evidence about the prior explosive weapons conviction was inadmissible although I think the Judge let the defense put in the home camera evidence. As the prosecutor said the ruling by the Judge doesn't mean he didn't commit the crime. It only means that the State didn't have enough (or ANY) evidence that he did commit the crime. I think that a jury would have convicted him due to all the circumstantial evidence; however, then he would have had the appeal and, chances are, the appeals court would have ordered a new trial, blah, blah, blah. He's 75 years old so at a certain point in the not too far distant future he will meet his Maker and this crime will be sorted out properly. That's what I believe, and, yes, he has A LOT to account for when he makes his transition from Earth to his destination.....

These are two professional Asst Principals. I would suspect they are in their late 30's or early 40's. He already has 3 children from a previous marriage. They are buying an expensive home. If she leaves her job to parent a newborn that might impact their ability to manage their finances. Even after she returns to work, they would have to consider the cost of childcare AND he still has financial responsibility for at least one of his children. Wouldn't a reasonable person assume that they would have decided between them BEFORE MAKING WEDDING PLANS whether or not they wanted to have children together??? She referred to "negotiating" the subject. I always feel sorry for children being born under a "coerced" situation where one parent isn't 100% IN for the prospect of being a parent. My belief is DON'T HAVE CHILDREN if you're not 10000% committed to the role of parenthood. That includes THE COST of raising a child. You can divorce a spouse but children are a LIFETIME responsibility that can NEVER be severed (regardless of how dysfunctional the relationship may be there's always a connection)!

ANOTHER LOSER SEASON seems to be upon us...I doubt I'll waste my time to watch. The utter train wreck's of the last few seasons drained any interest I ever had in the show. There were seasons with relatable couples who actually developed functioning marriages; however, the last few years brought about nothing but failures (with a few, very few, notable exceptions. I think the last one was Briana and Vincent). After that it was all DOWNHILL. And...to that I would include the only surviving couple from last season, Nicole and Chris.

The awful brassy hair color with "root rot" on the crown also didn't do her any favors. I was very surprised that the monster Heuermann (sp?) let her off so easily when she rebuked his advances. She's one LUCKY lady!!

Glad you followed your remark with laughing emojis because that summarizes my reaction to the thought of either of them going to "work" every day. With 3 young special-needs kids in tow and a big house to run, I'm not seeing any possibility that either, or both of them are even remotely suitable for "employment." That's why, regardless of their "protestations to the contrary" they will agree to appear on the show. They need the $$$ to maintain their cushy lifestyle.

I believe that ZiT do NOT WANT to participate in the show (if it's renewed). HOWEVER, at a certain point they are going to have to "crunch the numbers" of their financial situation with whomever advises them to see how they are going to remain financially viable without income from the show (again, IF it is renewed). If the show does get renewed and they agree to participate in the filming, I believe they will do so grudgingly and "phone it in" whenever possible. I cannot envision any scenario where Zach could earn a living and Tori is a "content creator" on Instagram but how much $$$ she generates is debatable.
