TV REVIEW: This chilling documentary will put you off dating

If you were a fan of the original podcast or the article series, then you’ll be very interested in this documentary. While the podcast and articles already give you quite the insight into John Meehan’s life, this documentary will just add another layer to the already enthralling story of the man who used various women for their wealth and status while also being addicted to drugs and hiding his criminal past including actually spending time in prison from them.

The documentary features interviews with John’s first wife Tonia, other women he conned and his last wife Debra Newell, as well as interviews with her daughters Jacquelyn and Terra. While the documentary is just another titbit for you chew on in the giant meal that is this story, don’t expect it to be somehow revolutionary if you already know the case. People who are new to the Dirty John case will get a real kick out of it, but those of us who know what happens might be slightly underwhelmed.

Still not time wasted though as it’s still entertaining and you get to hear first-hand from his victims what really happened when he entered their lives and how he tried to burn in it all to the ground before he got what was ultimately coming to him.

Ex-spy spills the beans on state security dirty tricksA plot to destabilise the ANC would be to stage 'fake shooting and bombings' of ex-North West and Free State premiers and then blame Ramaphosa and his supporters. They call the source prophet or whiskey but Zuma calls him an apartheid spy. Just finished reading the article & it falls under the fake news category. It was written by someone who wants to devide the ANC before the up coming elections. It's obvious that O'Sullivan bought Whisky a lot of whisky in order for whisky to lie. Brandy will tell us the truth. The SSA is a Criminal Institution. A number of SSA officials reported maladministration and criminal acts at the IG long before all of this. The IG did nothing!! That's the Problem. Cases are there for years or just never attended to properly.

I don't always understand you guys.' Make up is like an other form of augmenting your looks. It has always been part of human tradition. If you check even people who live primitive lives, they still put some stuff on their hair and faces. If it is not working for you, leave it and shut up.
