    This was featured in the Netflix doc and he discussed the padlocks on his bedroom wall were for hanging on the piercing while the producer was watching him dress.

    Unfortunately, I remembered the part of one episode when he says he doesn't wear underwear. And, then there is a scene when he's putting on his jeans and says "gotta get Prince Albert in there." makes winky face to producer and then proceeds to explain the padlocks.

    Was Oklahoma where that Sheriff started the "faces of meth" mugshots? I know several places have since, but I was thinking it originated there.

    We must've missed that part. I remember asking my wife why he wears a knee brace and she thought it was because of the car accident/suicide attempt as a teen.

    It might have been, but you could just make up anything, and nobody would blink.

    saw that a bit ago, it kinda rubbed me the wrong way. Both the questions and the answers.

    People think it’s a binary choice: either the lady is crazy, or they do good stuff. You’re either with me or against em. I’m sure the documentary had a lot of spin on her too. It’s entertainment, and they needed her to be entertaining. If you were to follow any one of us with cameras and video for years, then edit that footage down to a little over an hour of sound bytes, you could paint us to be anything you wanted as well.

    That being said, I do think it was interesting what she said about how many pounds of meat the largest cats eat. And when you think of how many tigers it would actually take to completely eat a person, then ensuring nothing remained.

    forget where I first saw it, but I like the theory that the husband was doing drug runs on those undocumented flights and pissed off the wrong cartel, who may or may not have had Carol’s help in it. Seems the most plausible as far as disappearing him.

    **edit** and now the Sheriff is asking for any new leads on the cold case

    Well yeah, it’s fun to think she killed him or whatever, but I’m all seriousness it’s entirely possible the dude just up and left her too, especially if he was a poon hound. The narrative definitely wants us to believe she did in a lead up to Joe trying to get her killed. Keep in mind the person most pushing that theory throughout the doc is Joe. So is it suspicious? Yeah. But the times she’s kind of joking about putting him through a meat grinder or feeding him to her cats could have easily have been the work of editing and taken out of context. For all we know she was just responding to the wild accusations the producers were asking her about off camera. Who the hell knows, people bounce on their spouse and families all the time.

    They don’t usually bounce on their entire twenty million dollar fortune just to escape to a shitty country, though.

    When a spouse goes missing without a trace, unless they’ve pissed off the Cali Cartel you arrest the person they married. Because 99% of the time, they did it.
