They aren't just "parents of an abuser who murdered his fiance" either. They are active participants in the attempt to cover up the murder and aided and abetted the fugitive.

They deserve this. I hope they feel ten percent of the pain they caused Gabby's parents.

That 'burn after reading' letter his mother wrote tells you about what sort of people they are. They deserve a lot more than shunning.

I couldn’t believe her handwriting when the doc showed the letter! It looks like a 12yos handwriting. The way the doc describes this mom, reminded me a lot of the things you read about on r/justnomil. Their relationship screams enmeshed and all of them come off as narcissistic.

She has signs of what many would call "emotional incest" or "covert incest" - where a parent relies on their child for emotional support in inappropriate ways
