Having been subjected to an abusive spouse I would not have dared to take such a risk. Sometimes it is the mild mannered partner who breaks under jealousy and betrayal. Unfortunately, seeing all these crimes does not deter others from making dangerous choices. In a perfect world no one would harm or take the life of someone they formerly loved. Sadly, it happens all too often.; Reply to this comment

This lawyer, "Mister William D...", is disgusting the way he talks about Nina. Even more knowing that the other psychopath, Hans, killed her. It's shameful for all lawyers.; Reply to this comment

If you are a geek, pervert or crybaby they will never love you. You may be a loser, poor, drunkard, stupid, ugly - doesn't matter most of the time as long as you are a normal MAN. In this story the men belonged to the geek-pervert-crybaby group. And it didn't surprise me that they couldn't handle the situation. I've had two Russian girlfriends.; Reply to this comment


by avalon12 February 11, 2011 9:39 PM EST: Tho sean appeared a bit strange.,its more obvious that he is in desparate desire for ATTENTION....I do not believe for one second that he killed anyone.,no less 81/2 ppl!! Hans however is just completely Bizarre & somethimg in me thinks not only did he have a god complex, he may have been dealing w/ some sexual idenity issues., because you really don't see any affection between the two of them! It seems more that he just wanted a quiet stay ay home russian bride to raise kids., while he does whatever he wants. Unfortunately she had a mind of her own w/ ambition & desires that did'nt match to what he expected!It scares me to know that he could be out at the age of 58,because he is way to bizarre to be roaming the streets w/ his crazy thoughts., they should do a pcyh.evaluation before even considering releasing him!!!!!; Reply to this comment


by skfamiliar October 26, 2010 2:08 PM EDT: wow, what an amazing story. i was thinking that if i were on the jury and knew about sean, i would have a hard time convicting hans. there is something not quite right about sean (and i don't mean his cross-dressing for the wedding or sexual preferences. there is something about his devotion to her and his mannerisms that i find creepy. however, why would he leave her money and then go and kill her?), and even though before the ending was revealed i thought hans killed her, i had reasonable doubt.

so, the ending was a bit of a surprise. what a sick bastard. she's there with the kids all the time and yet he thinks he's some gift from god when he spends a bit of time piddling away on a computer with them? what a misogynistic ****** bag. oh, and a raging psychopath. just listen to the man when he speaks!! he's crazy.; Reply to this comment
