The Prison Confessions of Gypsy Rose Blanchard

It's tragic what happened to this young lady, her mother definitely abused her and her trust. That being said, she IS a murderer and a manipulator and used that horny, slow boy as a weapon. Now he's serving life and she's making a show about getting married to some Easter-egg of a human? Let's not forget, this guy is the exact same as those sad women who write fan mail to serial killers.

I watched the entire series just to see if there was anything new they would convey. If you're wondering, there's not. It's 6 episodes of "I killed my mother, BUT.." the whole thing puts me in mind of the self-serving Casey Anthony "special" that came out a few years ago. It's a desperate attempt to hold on to the fleeting 15 minutes for a despicable act.

This girl was abused, no argument. But rather than go to the authorities or any number of people on the planet, she chose to USE some rando in the internet to do her dirty work. The only reason the prosecutor cut her the deal is because they knew when she got in the stand and boo-hooed in her little girl voice the jury might have found her not guilty so they figured some prison is better than no prison.

In reality, she deserves to spend her life behind bars, not getting married and doing book signings. Does this little killer realize she's not "free"? She's on PAROLE!

The FOIA documents have been released to the public. These are the legal case files the public needs to read. She previously tried to take her Mother's life, was never reported, and then manipulated an Autistic man who was collecting a permanent disability check to take the fall for her plan. She planned it for years and she should not be free to influence our youth.

Please do your research and read the FOIA documents. Society is not safe with people like her around. The public is praising someone who murdered their own mother & was given a false narrative for a sweet plea deal. Stop glorifying Murderers.

This show I feel is prime example of feeding the decay of our morales of humanity. She is literally making a small fortune off this series portrait of her being a justified killer but yet appears as a victim. If lifetime doesn't see a larger can of trouble coming from this they are as nieve as she is . Now people can play the victim and then justify why they kill and also it belittling real victims who suffered abuse with out their payday all because they didn't commit a brutal murder. They are just numbing people of personal responsibility and destruction of a morale society.i hope the might highlight more positive people overcoming being victimized but doing something positive.

Gypsy Rose Blanchard did not have cancer, or any other disease her mother claimed she had. She was a victim of her mother's cruel manipulations and Munchausen by Proxy (now called "Fictitious Illness Imposed by Another"). But make no mistake - as the documentary reveals - she is still a very sick woman.

Lifetime devotes gallons of hours to interviews of her explaining her life and abuse, as well as a very dull last 2 episodes about her prison dating and marriage. There's no real fact checking, no real lens or questioning, just her framing her narrative. The whole thing is massive manipulation allowed to run wild.

Through no fault of her own, Gypsy Rose was forced to living as a perpetual sick child. But after 8 years in prison, she still spins stories and narratives that serve her needs, not essentially the needs of the truth or mentally healthy thought. She's still the fairytale loving free spirit child, except she's in prison for murder. (shhh, we're supposed to forget that part).

She doesn't need to "tell her story" - she needs intensive psychotherapy and some years in healthy normalcy. She's got a head full of messed up ideas about everything from what love is to what accountability means. Her equally immature "husband" (now ex-husband) is another sad case of a man with no real world experience who is dating a captive girl and fantasizing about a relationship that isn't' really there.

Giving her a platform (compete with manipulative dreamy shots of her walking alone on a prison yard and sitting in a prison doorway as the rain falls around her) isn't the cure she needs. A halfway house, a job, and therapy is the cure she needs.

The real hero of this whole story is Kristy Blanchard, her stepmother, who patiently hopes for her, prays for her and gives her solid advice. She's gone way out of her way for a child who was never hers, and she is the only one in this story who has earned a right to be heard.

This whole series is overly long, incredibly slow and grating, and just really a sad cash grab on a story that is as compelling as it is horrible.

It doesn't come to any kind of conclusion. After episode 6 it just stops. Which is fitting, because this story is never going to end. Gypsy Rose is going to go from show to show, podcast to pulpit telling it over and over, with her sing-song narrative and "Dreams come true" finale. She's gone from her mother's prison, to actual prison, to the prison of media attention. From the day she and her boyfriend killed her mother, she's getting better press. She's just not getting better.

I believe some needs to see this for what it is you are rewarding her for being a murderer and making it ok for her to use people and get over on people. This is a shame..she makes it like she is the victim and wants everyone.to feel sorry for her.you got people on death row do you feel sorry for them. Then she married a man while in prison so she could use him . Now that she is out she does want to be with him why because she no longer needs his money. It's sad that this story is making her out to be a victim when SHE IS A MURDER AND DESERVES TO BE TREATED THE WAY SHE KILLED HER MOTHER. NO MATTER.
