i have been on the tv news six times. my mother is a well known celebrity.
Sometimes I get sad watching true crime shows I agree.  That happened to me and I had to stop watching them.  I worry too much about it happening to me or, even worse, my kids.
Yes, I definitely empathize with the characters, and imagine the crimes happening to me, but I enjoy them so much also! When I have nothing else to do, I read books, but its the same thing. Wow! I wish I had that much time on my hands. Reading is relaxing. Opposite here, have had to work hard nearly everyday since I was 16, but I used to be in the Marines also I would imagine that is still pretty cool, compared to how I was raised.  My Mom has passed. I would imagine. Different shoes to walk in I suppose.
Yeah I agree. The crimes are mostly murder with serial killer dominating the genre (about 40%). I like books too. I've read 40 so far this year.  I have a lot of free time. I was born into a wealthy family.  Can't choose our parents. Mine is a well known celebrity but she has had a lot of problems.  Sorry to hear that. For me, I'm just tired of appearing on the news talking about my mother.  True. Even wealthy people have problems. But not as bad as others. 
well , aside from reading true crime books , i'm too busy studying . i do not have a lot of time to read , my kid keeps me busy . i hear you . i get busy myself so i try to read before bed . i can imagine . i would like to experience that type of life . i'm sorry to hear that . when did she pass ? yes i agree my friend . it has been nice chatting with you , too !
True crime is awesome. I love watching different shows about the same case. There is always new information and different perspectives. I prefer to read books on my free time because I am grown up Yes it's very relaxing. I was in the Navy, wish I could do it again? oh my god i'm so sorry. i've only got one grandparent left and it's tough to even imagine not having her Yeah it's one of those situations where you would almost rather hear the news even if it was bad.  At least then you could start taking steps to combat it.
Yeah I agree. The crimes are mostly murder with serial killer dominating the genre (about 40%). Ha, I used to think that way when I was younger and then I realized. The Manson Murders is one of the biggest selling crime books in history. I completely agree. I wish I read more. Whenever I do it's such a great escape for my mind. That's too bad. Have you made other friends with your fellow soldiers? It's so sad that she had Alzheimer's disease :( You're right and that is anywhere but we must make the best of it. Even in America, we've had awful plots against us like the Portland Car Bomb in 2010.
