This episode nearly killed us. ….Or was it the Oreos, Pringles and alcohol that nearly killed us? 

When we sat down to record this episode a *second time,* we about lost our minds at the thought of talking about these two shit bags again. But ya girls persevered, technology issues and tummy troubles be damned! 

Brandi started us off with the story of Jacque Waller. Jacque worked her ass off. As a mom of triplets, she also juggled a demanding career. But her husband, Clay Waller, didn’t pull his weight. He couldn’t hold a steady job, and he rarely lifted a finger with the kids. If that imbalance wasn’t bad enough, Clay then became abusive. When Jacque told him she’d had enough, he threatened her life. 

Then Kristin tells us about Donnah Winger, who was coming home from a trip to Florida with her infant daughter, Bailey. Donnah’s parents had arranged for Donnah and Bailey to be picked up from the airport and driven the two hours back to their home. It seemed like a perfect plan, but as soon as the driver started talking, Donnah knew she was in for a rough time. The man said he had a demon in his head. Then he invited Donnah to an orgy. She was deeply disturbed. When she got home, she told her husband Mark Winger about the driver, and he insisted that she file a complaint. 

And now for a note about our process. For each episode, Kristin reads a bunch of articles, then spits them back out in her very limited vocabulary. Brandi copies and pastes from the best sources on the web. And sometimes Wikipedia. (No shade, Wikipedia. We love you.) We owe a huge debt of gratitude to the real experts who covered these cases.
