It wouldn’t surprise me if this killer had bought positive pregnancy tests online. Yes you can get positive tests, some women sell their positive tests online, it happens a lot. Some women have bought them as a joke for their husbands which is cruel and not funny. if one got into this evil woman’s hands then she could show her husband she’s pregnant to trap him. Hope she gets the death penalty like TP just got. TP also put the placenta down her pants. Maybe were this killer got her idea from.

That's literally disturbing.

That's literally disturbing.

I can’t even imagine who even came up with this business idea…..who saw the need for positive pregnancy tests? This world!

I can’t find anything on the husbands court today yet

This was mentioned in the timeline under Nov 9 in post #9.

At Jamie Waterman’s detention hearing on Nov. 10, the court granted the government’s motion to hold him in federal detention without bond.

Two counts! Baby Valkyrie gets justice.

I'm glad the state charged her too. I'm really curious how it works with both the feds and the state charging someone. I can't remember another case where this has happened, except maybe for hate crime charges.

Wondering how quickly the trials will happen. I'm watching a Florida DP trial that started a few days ago. The murder was in May of this year which really is kind of crazy fast.

Just curious - where you trial watch and where you search for a case that interests you?

I watch trials on Law & Crime YT channel and I watch the archived trials on CourtTV. I try not to watch CourtTV live because they cut out parts of the trials and they have too many commercials, but their archived trials are great. Here are links

The stuff you can buy online will never cease to amaze me. The hormone-laden urine of a pregnant woman and breast milk are two great examples.

I am no fan of the death penalty, but it truly seems right in this case. I hope she is terrified of what awaits her.

Edit to add, I hope her children get the help they need to overcome the issues they'll no doubt have because of her. I hope they are being cared for and protected from detailed knowledge of exactly what their mother is.
