This would make sense, with the mother writing that bizarre ransom note afterwards.
All around SICK family dynamics.
I wonder what their faith life was like.
I didn’t see the special, but that Algore Unabomber note is hard to square with an intruder. Who would take the time to practice a note and then write three pages? And how would an intruder know the amount of his bonus? It’s not impossible but seems far fetched.
I have always felt that Patsy’s sister, Pam, wrote the note. Sisters, in my personal experience, have very similar handwriting. My younger sister’s handwriting and mine are very similar, as well as my 4 sisters-in-law looking like each other’s.
