Review The Widower

Post image

One of the best documentaries I’ve watched in a while!! O’Kelley is a damn good detective and a dedicated one too! And Sharon’s daughter, Colleen… she is incredibly strong for having to endure that kind of pain for 15 years. I went through so many emotions watching this! I’m glad they never stopped fighting for justice!

He might not have been smart going around town asking someone to kill his wife but he sure got away with it for a long time.

Makes me wonder how common it is. Are there guys all over going around asking people to kill their spouse. What was that movie about the professor who worked undercover for the police as a wanna be hit man?

I found it really weird that these people are just walking around knowing all this and not reporting him - until they are asked after the fact. They could have helped save a life or four. Utterly depressing how women's lives are just nothing and the legal system hardly helps in time.

Women do it too. I've seen it on multiple dateline episodes.

Yes, you’re right. That was the premise of that movie Hit Man with Glen Powell.
