well at the very beginning how on earth a married couple have a girl to live with them ,there will be no privacy at all between them and for Kelly..the feeling of having another girl living with her of course she will be jealous of her & will hate her
im glad that there was evidence like the tape from walmart,her friend Megan & what she said to the police,the small pieces from that taser gun and so on
but of course that poor girl didnt deserve to die like this & im sad that this happened to her ...i cant imagine how her mother feels or how sad she is
they could have kicked her out of the house after that fight & that would be the end of it but instead they killed her
let them die in prison

Nobody deserves to die like this. If Kelly was so jealous of Melissa why did they invite her to come live with them? I just can't believe how any human being could treat anyone or anything like this.Back to Kelly and meat head. In my mind with all the info that their friends provided and the lies that they told police. This all determined they're nothing by Liar! Kelly told police Melissa stole the car and personal belongings. ***? so Melissa stole her credit card to go purchase supplies to kill herself? There's no way.Com'on now. Drop the steroid and lets face reality. I'm 100% meat head and Kelly worked together to get rid of Mellisa's body and erase all evident s of what they did to her. This is one of the most brutal videos I've seen in a long time.No wonder why they always win trophies. If it wasn't for the steroid they would not even get the trophies they have.I hope they both learn their lesson and never hurt another soul!

If they would have done this in GA or SC, they would have never saw the light of day again and probably would have gotten the death penalty. Let's see...murder, conspiracy, arson, abuse of a corpse, tampering with evidence, lying to officers, perjury and the list goes on. There are no plea deals here for those kind of crimes (6 years???). When someone confesses to using drugs, they should also be slapped with drug charges period. This was first degree murder because the mouth was duct taped. The prosecution was not strong. Why should either one of these people be allowed out of prison ever!

Give me a break! When will people stop using the "I was high on drugs I didn't know or couldn't control what I was doing" defense. It is really pathetic. I am glad justice was served. The woman should have gotten a harsher sentence though!

Let's hope Mr. big shot body builder never gets paroled. His body is already deteriorating and he has acquired male breasts. It is hard to imagine how stupid him and his wife were to casually discuss the killing of Melissa with their best friend, but then both of them had enormous ego's. It is just too bad that Melissa did not get guidance from a family member, or help from someone else before getting attached to the steroid freak and his wife Kelly. I can't figure out how Kelly escaped a conspiracy to commit murder charge, unless it was not to be included in her plead deal. Lets hope she gets no parole and serves the maximum 17 years, which is still a bargain for what she did and helped the steroid monster do. Thank God that the monster's friend told police about she was told that Melissa was choked and tazered to death. Prison is too good of a place for these two pathetic human beings.

All I'm going to say is this male body builder was a narcissistic steroid monster. He didn't want to get old and pass over those trophies to the next generation. He forced his girlfriend to ride along with him all the way down to murder. That poor girl didn't deserve to die that way. All for what?

This is overkill, if you ask me. It is such an insult that the defense solicitor indicated in all of his aspects, this may not be a murder. Can you imagine the stupidity of such a statement. Oh yeah, she duct taped her head, put herself in the trunk of the car and set it on fire. Oh God, how did he ever graduate from law school. And he really thinks he is the golden boy. Oh, that made me sick. Well, the boyfriend was so creepy, he could be a star in a horror movie. I don't know what they saw in him. They certainly fell from their ivory tower. Condolences to the young lady's mom and her best friend, a horrible memory to have of the way she died. And all the lies that were told to cover it up. They are where they belong and should have got the death penalty.
