This movie was more along the lines of Hitchcock's Psycho than a compassionate biography.
Betty Broderick claimed that her husband used her, abused her, then dumped her for a younger woman. It would make sense for her to file for divorce and try for sole custody. Instead, she inexplicably decides to leave her children with her abuser, and then fight for custody and against the divorce that he filed on her. It makes it difficult for me to believe anything she says.
And nothing Betty Broderick could have experienced justifies tormenting him by setting his clothes on fire, leaving hundreds of obscene messages on his phone, vandalizing his house, and finally going to his house with a gun and "accidentally" killing him.
The fact that Betty Broderick shows no remorse means that she will probably spend the rest of her life in prison, keeping her from becoming a threat to her children.
