Buy the book! The book is far better than the movie could EVER think about! Bridget Michaels, is actually Barbara Stager....Ron Michaels is also known as Russell Stager. The book goes into more detail about the crimes, the events surrounding the victims and how Barbara's mind was really working at the time. It starts off by giving the reader an idea of what Barbara's life was like from the start of her first marriage. How her first husband was killed and the events of their marriage that eventually led up to murder. It also gives an acount of her life before meeting her second husband, which his murder is what put her behind bars. If you really want an inside view of what it was like for Barbara, her victims, and how the day-to-day battle went in court that finally landed her a 20 year sentence in a women's correctional institute, GET THE BOOK! She is due to be out in 2006 which is very true. She lived in North Carolina and committed the murders here. I feel that when she comes up for release, we will be seeing more about this case. The families of those victims will fight hard to keep her locked up. She has children also and I feel that she may try to make some contact with them once she is released. The movie on TV is small beans compared to the book. Get the book and you'll see, it is soooo much better than the movie.
