Thank you so much for all your support!
Katie ❤️ Guuuurl
Payton - you are so wonderful. I hope you are doing okay. I know in Binged you mentioned you were struggling. I’ve been there and it’s an ongoing battle. You are so empathetic! Make sure to take care of yourself.
Love you too, Megan!
Payton you’re incredible, you’re truly an amazing person. We love you x
Peyton, I hope you are ok. You are just precious! Please, please remember to take care of yourself. We love you 😘
Great case, I did love that both parts were available immediately I appreciate the hard work you do Payton (& garret!)
Just finished the episode and l, yes, when Peyton is deeply moved by the cases it shows how much she loves their show and how much she cares about the victims. I’ve seen no other show where the victims are spoken of and lifted up to be remembered the way she does! Love them.
I always cry when peyton cries🥺 ugh
Garrett the jailhouse snitch! Lmao so funny!!!
Both my mom and my sister went to UF. And my aunt went to FSU right around the time Ted Bundy was around there. So scary to think about what could have happened. I just get so emotional thinking about what those poor victims and their families went through. My heart and prayers go out to them ❤️
peyton, you are a such a sweet soul. i get tears in my eyes every time you get emotional about these cases — you clearly care so much about the people in them.
