Topic : 05/11 Obsessive Love: On the Run

I can not belive what I'm looking at on television. This woman has to be insane!

Why in the world did she go back to the house, she should have just been a little

smarter and try to out smart this man. First of all, she should have gotten rid of the

cell phone that he kept calling her on. Second, she should have gotten all the help

from Dr. Phip that she could get, such as getting her own place to stay as well as getting

an apartment so that she would not have had to go back to that house. She should have had someone go the the house and completely pack up everything while Jeffery was at the treatment center. Also she should have been more careful with the gift card ahd she should have taken all the money out of the bank account and just started over.

She should have had the baby sitter take the children away from the house to some place safe and when she saw Jeffery sitting at the computer, she should have kept going and went back later when she knew that he was not there and cleaned the place out.

There was a lot of things that I would have done differently if I had been in that situation. Because her children should have been the only thing that was on her mind. Forget about Jeffery!

Morally, you are totally correct. Legally, Dr.Phil is correct. The ;aws/courts are not necessarily moral or just- they are just- - laws and courts. people (?) who think (?) like Jeffrey manipulate , bully  and abuse via the courts too. It is called legal harassment. Then there are the "hired guns" - people who are paid to - say whatever the abuser says.

Morals and ethics do not necessarily reside in the legal systems.

To all of you who are siding with Jeffrey:

You are as sick and twisted as he is!  PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE read up on everything before you post.  Her behavior has nothing to do with his behavior.  She was 19 when they married, He was 30.  He was looking for someone to control.  If she had an affair or not, has nothing to do with his insanity.  My mother married my father when she was 18 and he was 20, back in 1963.  He beat her, abused her, removed her from her family, wouldn't let her have a job, he kept her isolated.  He tried to kill her many, many, many times.  It started out subtle, and then it becomes what it is.  We ran, we hid, but he found us!  My mom tried to stand up to him many times and was beaten and strangled to near death.  In 1975 she finally left him.  My father accused my mother of having affairs many times, and they weren't true.  One guy gave his number to my mother on a match book (she smoked back then).  My father found it and threw a glass at her head, cutting her head so bad that she needed stitches.  She didn't go to the hospital because he told her when she left he would take us and she'd never see her children again.  I saw the entire episode, I was 8 years old then, and I remember it all, I saw my mother's face covered in blood and she begged me to go back to bed.  SO FOR ALL OF YOU WHO THINK JENNIFER DIDN'T CRY ENOUGH, SHE LAUGHED INAPPROPRIATELY, OR THAT SHE EGGED HIM ON - SHE DID NOT!  SHE WENT OUT WITH FRIENDS TO BLOW OFF A LITTLE STEAM, GIVE ME A FREAKING BREAK.  IT IS SO EASY TO JUDGE UNTIL YOU'VE WALKED IN HER SHOES!  I AM 43 YEARS OLD NOW, AND AM DIVORCED BECAUSE I SPENT SO MUCH TIME MAKING SURE I DIDN'T MARRY A PHYSICAL ABUSER, I ENDED UP WITH AN EMOTIONAL ABUSER.  I am now remarried to the sweetest kindest man in the world - and by the way so did my mom (she's married 21 years now to a kind gentle man).

SO JENNIFER, MY PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU AND YOUR CHILDREN, I WAS A CHILD ON THE RUN WITH MY MOM AND I KNOW THE FEAR YOU AND YOUR CHILDREN LIVE WITH!

So, think before you post! 

PS:  To all you women out there in an abusive situation, there is help, reach out in your area, there are safe houses and shelters that will help you.  There are people who care, just not some who think they know it all!

He is in jail, thank god!! LOL For a sec there at the end of the 4th segment, I thought Dr. Phil was going to say that he killed himself and I wasnt going to be too upset but then He ended up in jail with no bond. Thank god. Jennifer wont have to worry about him running around like a freak.

And all those 'I love you" notes all over the house and in her EMPTY underwear dresser?...Totally creepy. If i were her i'd change my phone numbers too and everything.

i was just thinking the same thing ...

some of these pieces don't add up, don't make sense -

I have NEVER heard a story like this. Now that this psycho is in jail, he needs to stay there. I"m sure there are no grounds for him to be kept, and he will continue to stalk Jennifer. My heart goes out to her.  Can't she change her phone numbers, etc?? STOP  POSTING STUFF ON "MY SPACE!!" He will find it somehow!!  Can she get into the witness protection program so he can't find her??

He has such a deep illness.  I'm sure he will follow through with his threats to hurt himself.......maybe that would be better for everyone....she would, at least, get to rest easy knowing that this behavior will stop.........

I hope updates are posted so we can see what happens. TAKE CARE, Jennifer! Know lots of us are pulling for you!
