Discussion Unknown Number High-school Catfish Spoiler

What the hell did I just watch? And what the hell was this person thinking?

I'm in shock that someone would do such a thing to their own child. And that she doesn't seem to have any focus on what she actually did.

The daughter didn't seem to grasp what her mother did when they told her but the father acted on it right away.

Was she totally jealous of her own daughter?

Sherriff Main was a bloody moron. As the months ticked over I was like, why the fuck aren't there warrants for everyone's phones, ip addresses, data from the phone companies... this is serious harassment and sexual in nature?

Then finally, fuck, 20 months later... the FBI is finally involved and I nearly fell out of my chair realising who did it all.

Poor Lauryn. She's such a sweet, beautiful girl. I hope she gets a lot of therapy, she will need it to be OK after this 💔

It should have happened after the 3rd or 4th month in my opinion, or at least when the messages turned super nasty telling the kids sexual things and telling Lauryn to kill herself.

I understand why it didn't go to warrants sooner - Sheriff Main is not too smart and the girl's MOTHER was the one doing it. Of course she's not going to push for them to escalate and get ip addresses, etc. Maybe she even stalled them on it in some way.

They didn't tell us she works in IT until it was all revealed - my question would have been, why aren't you asking for warrants for IP addresses, you know about this stuff 🤔

That is sus alone. That's why they hid that fact from us until it was all revealed.

I thought it was really weird that they didnt look to other family members after Chloe when they inestigated the picture at the family Xmas party, should have been the next step immediately.

Right? That should have narrowed things down significantly. No one should have been immune from suspicion - which would have seemed harsh, but is correct since look who tf it turned out to be! 🤯
