La vérité sur l'affaire Dirty John

The movie "Dirty John: The Dirty Truth" is a documentary that delves into the true story of Debra Newell, a successful interior designer who becomes involved with a con artist named John Meehan. The documentary unravels the tactics he used to deceive and manipulate several women. It is indeed surprising to see that many victims, like Debra Newell, are drawn to men who possess a combination of strong personality, machismo, education, and romanticism, and who often pretend to have prestigious professions such as doctors or lawyers. Do they ever ask themselves: Why would this kind of man be still single and available?

The documentary is monotonous, repetitive and does not provide any fresh information about con artists targeting vulnerable women.

I get that Debbie was manipulated and used etc... But after the third or fourth time that Debbie read police reports, threatening texts from John, mugshots, cars being set on fire and so on, enough is enough Debbie. But she keeps going back to him? What a moron Debbie must be. Debbie hides for 23 days, lives in hotel rooms, moves, drives a different car, all to hide from John. Then John texts Debbie and she goes to visit him in the hospital and feels sorry for him? I think she got what she deserved, if she's that naive. When a man threatens to make one of your children disappear and you're still with him, you've got some major issues of your own Deb.

Its a hilarious story of womanhunting,greed,manipulaton, and as it seems from this documentary,a very toothless american judicial system, and a lack of will and manpower by law enforcers to deal with internet predators like john.

its the dum and stupid v.s. the bad and ruthless, in oxygen style and at oxygen level. you get what you pay for. watch it and behold and beware,you may be the next.

Ever wonder why women don't "just leave" abusive relationships? Watch this series and find out. Three women per *day* are murdered in the United States by someone they know. Often their killer is a former intimate partner and the murder takes place within a month to a year after the victim leaves the relationship. This series explains how people like John use coercive control tactics (Google it) to manipulate and abuse victims using methods that are immoral but do not break the law. This film also illustrates how it's difficult for victims of coercive control to obtain meaningful help from the police, why a restraining order can escalate violence, and most frighteningly, why it's difficult for victims to obtain legal help; It's not due to lack of financial resources-something much more terrifying. This happens every day right under our noses. This could be happening to you, your sister, a co-worker, or a next-door neighbor. Enlighten yourself.

Gripping from start to finish. It's a story that's scary and intriguing.
