The daughter is delusional
What’s wrong with this daughter? Total denial smh Daughter had to know something terrible was going to happen but I understand she couldn’t do it thing !!!
This daughter is in some serious denial! 😮😮
I hope daughter goes to AL-ANON…
What a sad sad story 😢
Its really not about one person liking something but the other person doesn't, so they need to talk. Its that he kept her isolated, & that will erode almost anyone. Its really only people like me, who prefer isolation, & for me, its all due to my mental illnesses.
My god that daughter is in La la land. His thinly veiled monstrous behavior went RIGHT OVER her head. 🤦♀️
To the daughter: Denial isn't a river in Eygpt. I hope youre talking to your therapist about this, or chances are you'll end up with someone like your dad.
Man i cant imagine being stuck in a foreign land with no connections and your husband hates you now and your daughter is in denial that hes doing anything wrong because your behavior is more annoying than his. This lady was doomed.
The daughter needs some serious mental support
Why does the frizzy blonde Criminologist call Ildiko by her first name and Bettison by his last name?
Shows bias. Unprofessional.
The daughter’s denial is something else. Your father murdered your mother and you still want to say this was a one time thing, that when he hit her it was “just” one hit and then he’d walk away. 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
Daughter says dads drinking was okay then goes on to say he drank from the time he got home from work till he went to bed. Um he's also probably drinking at work & stuff too. That's why someone on the show says he's a functioning alcoholic. Then the daughter goes on to smash her mom on her drinking & mental health. Like wtf!? You can tell she's a spoiled daddys girl & is in some deep deep denial about her dad, his drinking, & his abusive nature towards her mom. No wonder poor mom was depressed & drank. She probably felt her family hated her.
I feel like the only person who even cared about Ildiko was the neighbor lady.
Umm.. is the daughter ok cause Chile…🤔
Soo, lemme get this right! It’s ok for her dad to have excuses for his drinking but her mom was a monster?! She’s super brainwashed. The daughter been picked a side.
Daughters always defend violent abusive husband fathers and Mothers always defend violent abusive husband sons. Everyone wake up and see the creepy patterns.
I didn't like the daughter from the first 30 seconds of this video. She's in total, complete & absolute denial. Good grief.
I can't even finish this video only due to the delusional behavior of the daughter. Thanks A&E for the video tho.
Wow. Daughter is a "daddy's girl" through & through. I know mother/daughter relationships can be difficult but she's completely biased & hyper-critical towards her mom. Seems to me that dad was pretty good at Parental Alienation & convinced his daughter that mom was the problem. She's so brainwashed that despite of his own words & the fact that he strangled her mom, she actually believes he didn't assault 3 other women.
Bless her heart. I hope she gets some counseling.
He's a narcissistic personality, probably, it's all her fault and why should he quit drinking just because she's the crazy alcoholic 😢.
To the daughter, my husband doesn't hit me either but his words over the last 30 years are like knifes slashing my soul.
My daughter looks down on me in disgust but the only reason why I stayed was for her
I believe the daughter respected her father as the breadwinner and if it was him to go to jail, that would financially hurt the family.
With mom in jail, it would sober her up and give the mom and dad some time apart.
I believe that's why the daughter would side with dad.
He sounds like a controlling bully. “The big man”. Oh brother. He’s an alcoholic bus driver.
The poor mother. She was submissive and trapped in a foreign land. I am sure she felt disconnected w her daughter too bc of the language and cultural barrier. She really needed to divorce her husband and go bk to Hungary to start a new life. Much better than staying w that man. Hindsight is 20/20.
Sounds like both Father and daughter were putting her down, not helping. Poor women😢
Daughter always supporting he father no matter HIS BEHAVIOR⁉ DID SHE EVEN CARE about her MOTHER⁉
S A women & children➡ she makes excuses for even that. The girl needs help⚠
Wow. What a betrayal of a narrative that this daughter is giving. She's ACTUALLY TRYING TO EXCUSE HIS BEHAVIOR AFTER HE MURDERS HER OWN MOTHER. If EVERYONE ELSE knows his behavior is deplorable, this means the police, emergency/ambulance EMTs, neighbors, spectators, etc. are commenting on his UNBELIEVABLY cold, MOCKING, CONDESCENDING, unrepentant, uncaring, behavior, I THINK they're just a little bit more, WELL A LOT MORE actually, experienced than her! This was her Mom, the woman that carried her for NINE MONTHS and then DEDICATED HER LIFE to this daughter that's taking up for her MOTHER'S MURDERER! I CAN'T EVEN COMPREHEND HER ATTITUDE TOWARDS HER MOTHER AND ATTEMPTS TO EXCUSE HER FATHER'S DESPICABLE CULPABILITY! I guess SHE knows it all, DESPITE the neighbors that are there all day/everyday attesting to something way different about her abusive father! …the ones that saw her all the time!
The daughter is justifying his actions
Mom didn’t need to get better, unless you mean the drinking. Your father also drank to much! Didn’t I hear that he wreaked a bus and was fired?
Oh wow…she is delusional! She still stuck up for her father even when other women came forward and he sexually assaulted a child!!! Oh my 😮😢
I am so grateful that sorry excuse for a daughter isn’t mine!😊
Drinking definitely played a huge part. But the mother who is dead is the victim. I believe this has been an abusive relationship for a very long time. The daughter was just blind and brainwashed by her father. He had all control. This is just sad. Prayers for her soul. 🙏🏼
Unfortunately the daughter is in total denial. She says the right thing, she knows the right thing BUT she was so close to it that she did see her mother be just as aggressive. I feel so bad for her being an only child. So many relationships just crumbled during Covid lockdown. Ildi was depressed and needed mental health services so she self-medicated. It was bad when he was working and then being together 24/7 meant drinking and fighting even more.
