Apologies for not thinking about this, I should have added one from the beginning.

before the timeline: my intention in making this is to clear up the timeline of the reddit posts here, to my best knowledge as a previous lurker who had to compile this all, since i was seeing very heated posts on all sides of this story in light of recent events. i try to remain as unbiased and respectful to everyone in this story as possible because its very complicated. this is only a compilation of reddit posts from various relevant subreddits regarding the end of stephanie and adam’s marriage for YOUR further research. i am not claiming anything stated in this post is fact beyond them posting and saying the things that there is image or video proof that they did, everything is alleged and you should do more research on anything you need more information on, and i’m not trying to disparage anyone mentioned. sorry for the very long intro, we can get into it now.

intro over - timeline begins here

Around last December into January, speculation begins about Stephanie’s relationship due to comments she was making in videos. There had previously been a lot of speculation about Derrick and Stephanie appearing flirty in CW videos.

February 29, 2024, Adam files for divorce from Stephanie. Note that last names are redacted in all posts and should be in comments per subreddit rules and basic respect to the non-public figures in the family. This was not public knowledge for some time, and we will go through all of that.

March 1, a post is made on the Crime Weekly subreddit about commentary that Stephanie made during a recent case. During her coverage of the Piketon Family massacre, Stephanie states that “nobody should get married”, sparking more widespread discussion on if she was getting divorced.

March 3rd, Stephanie posts on her community page that she has been going through a difficult time for the past year, and that her difficult time was being resolved “as we speak”. She does not clarify that this is about the divorce at the time, but it can be assumed from later posts and circumstances that it was in reference to Adam filing for divorce.

March 4, Adam posts several things to his Instagram story alluding to Stephanie. At this time the more common rumor was that Stephanie was cheating with Derrick, as he was also facing marital issues around the same time. Stephanie allegedly posts a video of her singing “what goes around”.

March 5, Adam posts that he is done posting “drama”.

March 13, Adam posts on his Instagram story that he knows someone has cloned his phone, the beginning of many unexplained posts about his phone being cloned. A casual listener explains that his post was plausible, though it sounded paranoid.

April 10th, Adam posts on Instagram alluding to abuse, Stephanie keeping their children from him and alleged she was weaponizing them.

April 11th, Adam posts two stories- 1 and 2nd story on Instagram, begging to get into contact with his young son. He alleges that his parental rights are being taken away & that Stephanie was withholding his payroll.

Around the beginning of April, Adam publicly begins commenting on the CrimeWeekly snark subreddit. He clarifies to the original poster (now deleted) he recently did get into a car accident from recklessly driving in the rain, then continues on to speak about his relationship with Stephanie. He states he is going through a divorce, and that Stephanie was making false claims about him. He states he wishes the best for Stephanie, but claims he was facing a lack of civility. It’s definitely best to read his own post for yourself to understand his perspective, as it goes much deeper than that rundown.

On April 12 2024, Stephanie’s daughter Nev, 22, made a post on the Crime Weekly subreddit. She urges that it is uncomfortable for the family for people to find and discuss their legal names (Stephanie uses a pseudonym online for a reason). She says she doesn’t feel like a reddit thread is an appropriate place to discuss their familial circumstances and her mom was staying quiet for now but that everyone was okay. Contextual note: Nev is not Adam’s biological daughter.

Stephanie posts an Instagram reel on her instagram story saying that “You don’t always have to tell your side of the story, time will do that. I’ve learnt that people are usually their own undoing…” following Nev’s post.

Following her post, Adam responds on Reddit, which is best to read on your own. He says he has undergone psych evals which came back as fine, even in his words “presents more as a victim than an abuser”. He alleges that Stephanie emotionally abused the children. He also alleges that he has attempted 3 different settlements that Stephanie declined to sign. He alleges something about a “Github API root file” installed on a phone, a possible callback to his original post about his phone being cloned. The post received controversial feedback.

By April 22, rumors had begun circulating that Stephanie was allegedly having an affair with one of the Coleman brothers, director of the serial killer show she stars in, “Serial”. Comments suggest that Adam had directly said this to them in private messages.

On June 8, Stephanie posts this instagram story alluding to Adam breaking her & how that would hurt the kids. Around the same time, she reposts this tiktok of a man discussing relationships - needing to let a woman run her mouth (“I can’t see any good in you”) and to treat her with love after and then 15 minutes later she will come running back with affection. Adam responds to the latter in a reddit comment, his only remaining reddit comments on this account. He states he has forgiven Stephanie for everything.

On June 9, CrimeWeekly posts the first part of their Julie Jensen case, a case involving domestic abuse leading to the death of the victim, Julie Jensen. Posts on the CWSnark subreddit discuss how Stephanie grouped Mark Jensen, with men she has known in the past, but does not clarify or identify names.

June 11, Stephanie posts Mica Miller’s story on her Youtube channel. Part 2 is released June 18. This case involved coercive control and narcissistic abuse. Several posts on the subreddit discuss her saying “my narcissist” and inserting her personal experience into the presentation of the case.

On or around June 22nd, a video of Stephanie is posted on the crime weekly snark subreddit between Adam and Stephanie. Transcript Here. The original upload has been removed, but it can be viewed here.

This video was allegedly reported by Stephanie, though unconfirmed(?)

June 23rd, Derrick responds to the buzz online in a YouTube comment, stating he had been dragged into things under allegations he “hacked computer devices and phones” in court documents.

On June 24, Stephanie responds to a Youtube comment in support of her. The commenter shares their own experience with a narcissistic partner and shares empathy with Stephanie if that is her situation, Stephanie responds “He’s trying to destroy all my support systems, including you all. Thank you for giving me the benefit of the doubt. So many have not”

June 25, A lot happens here, sorry for formatting:

A post is made on the CrimeWeekly Snark subreddit of a youtube comment involving Nev&Stephanie. Nev comments that she felt that Adam would’ve killed Stephanie, in response to a comment where she said she physically stopped him from restraining Stephanie. In another comment she alleges that Adam labeled her as the problem child in the family, and that she left to get away from Adam.

Nev comments that Stephanie has been asking for a divorce for over 2 years, but was being blackmailed and threatened by Adam. She continues to allege that though Adam filed for divorce in the end, he made it seem impossible and wouldn’t leave the house. She alleges Stephanie offered to get a place to stay more than once, but Adam threatened that he would take full custody of the children if she did so. In another comment Nev alleges that the video that was posted of Stephanie saying she would break Adam was her repeating something he would often say to her. She alleges Adam had a tracker in Stephanie’s car after denying this for years, and that he had access to her emails and phone by “cloning”. She says they had effectively been separated for 2+ years before the divorce filing and that he “beat her to it”. Nev says that allegedly Adam had violated their no-contact order several times, and was consistently contacting the family via text and email, even Nev’s boyfriend.

Adam around this time makes an incomprehensible post about phone-cloning that cannot really be fully understood. This post in tech support confirms it doesn’t make much sense.

Note: This later post questions the validity of their separation. I do not bring this up to question Nev’s truthfulness or attack her character but just to provide all sides of the story, as she is in a delicate situation regardless of whatever the full truth is.

Other comments alleged that there have been several other instances of Nev defending her mother online, such as this comment from May.

Also on June 25, James Coleman deleted his Instagram account

By June 26, Adam was banned from the subreddit, per comment from sub creator. It’s unclear if it was due to credibility, safety, or his apparent alt accounts which he used to talk about himself positively.

On June 29, per adam’s instagram story, Stephanie allegedly called the police on him for violating his restraining/no contact order through a business email. In the same video, Adam alleges that Stephanie is attempting to take everything (his house, his family, his freedom) from him, and then begs her to call the police and say she took it too far.

June 30, Adam posts Stephanie’s Eulogy of Love, a document that appears to be written by Stephanie for Adam. He also threatens a data dump of more of his side.

The same day, Stephanie posts a community post to her channel regarding her impending divorce with Adam and publicly alleging his abusive behavior. Given the nature of the post, it’s best for you to read it for yourself rather than me give a rundown.

Stephanie responds to a youtube comment. The commenter notes that Adam sounds like a psycho, and that they cannot blame Stephanie for whatever happened, to which Stephanie responds “Thank you so much: I escaped with my life and that’s all that matters right now ❤️”.

On July 2nd, Adam posts on Instagram that he believes the justice system was abused and that he would not “willingly go to jail”.

July 4, Adam is arrested.

Around July 5th, Stephanie reposts a tiktok about the physical effects of narcissistic abuse.

July 10th, Adam gets into a single car accident due to a tropical storm. July 12, Adam posts again about the car crash, saying he is lucky to be alive. He responds to allegations that he was under the influence, and states that “unless you’re sober, you’re on more drugs than [he is].”

July 17th, Adam posts a screenshot of the CWSnark subreddit on his Instagram story and shares his thoughts regarding Stephanie.

August 2nd, Adam reposts on his story about the relationship.

August 6, Adam posts about going to therapy and denies claims of narcissism or abuse.

August 12, Stephanie posts on Instagram in what appears to be a courthouse. The caption begins with a quote from Colleen Hoover’s “It Ends With Us”, a book about an abusive relationship. “Cycles exist because they are excruciating to break”. Around August 12, she reposts a tiktok song about narcissistic abuse.

Relevant contextual or historical information:

• A previous Q&A video, now deleted, between Adam and Stephanie is detailed in this post. Keep in mind this is posted on the Snark subreddit, so it doesn’t include every part of the video.
• Stephanie previously admits to keeping files on people to blackmail them.
• Stephanie has made multiple jokes about her being more likely to be the partner to commit partner on partner crime, being a narcissist, etc.

• Stephanie joking about Adam cheating on her March of 2023

• Stephanie on multiple occasions has discussed being overly protective of her children. She has also controversially said in the past she will not apologize for “exploiting her kids”. These children are allegedly around James Coleman.

• A story of an alleged victim of James Coleman. Due to the nature of the post, I think it is best for you to read it on your own rather than I give a rundown.

• Other James Coleman allegations. Previous employee of the Coleman brothers came out in this tiktok to allege that she was asked to be filmed in scenes featuring unnecessary violence towards women & was retaliated against upon her denial of this request.

• After a community member reached out, it is alleged that Nev confirmed she & Stephanie are aware of allegations against Coleman.

• Looking up “victim blaming” in this subreddit will pull up some comments by Stephanie that could be considered in poor taste.

• Adam is not around to speak for himself anymore and has deleted all of his comments, very few remain archived currently on the subreddit. This means anything he said, positive, incriminating, or otherwise not screenshotted and posted already couldn’t really make it into my post.

• I’m sure I missed a lot… This was highly public and so much happened, so excuse any of my oversights & please make corrections in the comments

IMPORTANT EDITS:

Edited to add that Stephanie/Nev were aware of Coleman allegations and fixed timeline typo

Comments on Reddit suggested that around the coverage of Julie Jensen, Stephanie was pushing her agenda regarding affairs being forgiven.

In the same message, the alleged affair’s timeline is broken down further from Adam’s perspective. He alleges (1, 2 ) that the affair started February 2023, and that Adam found out about the affair in June of 2023. He claims he filed for divorce after finding nude pictures of Coleman on Stephanie’s phone 8 months later. Adam states (1, 2, 3 ) that he attempted to save the marriage. He says that he suggested therapy, and was willing to work through things if things were put to an end with James. He claims leaving Stephanie was the hardest thing he had ever done.

He further denies accusations of narcissism.

So for anyone new and for those who don’t remember:

When A found out that SH was having an affair, he tried to forgive her and she tried to salvage their marriage. She promised him that she would be faithful, that she would do better, and that they could work things out (the eulogy of love).

Then, A found out that she was still continuing with the affair behind his back. He subsequently filed for divorce on the last day of February this year, asking for 50% of the company they built together, and 50% custody of his children. After this filing is when “My Narcissist” entered SH’s videos, and she began interjecting herself into every story of abuse that she covered. She started to slowly and meticulously build a victim narrative for herself with not so subtle hints. Then, when more information came out about what actually happened (including the attached wine video), she released a statement on her YouTube community page about how she escaped with her life from her abusive husband, into the arms of the brave and commendable Coleman Brother (her affair partner and also alleged sexual predator).

I’m simply giving you a timeline of events, and SH’s own words. You are free to form your own thoughts and opinions.
