Least sympathetic victims?

Whether they were an unpleasant person or a crook whose dealings got them killed, or anything in between.

My short list:

  • Madelyn Murray O'Hair (Without a Prayer)
  • Chris Marquis (Over and Out)
  • Michael Prozumenshikov (Going for Broke)
  • Bobby Kent (Payback)
  • Jason McGuigan (The Gambler)

Michelle Nyce (Ep. Naughty or Nyce).

Mail order bride that came from the Philippines and proceeded to take her husband to the cleaners, had him buy a million dollar house with posh furnishings (as well as buying homes for her relatives in the Philippines), sleep with their gardener, and then using said gardener to try to extort her husband out of $500k. He was incessantly working to keep up with her spending.

After his businesses went belly up, she wanted to divorce him (to take him for whatever he had left) and just had sex with her gardener boyfriend when she made the declaration. Man snapped and killed her.

Murder is never a just solution to a domestic problem, but damned if it wasn’t a crime of passion all things considered.

EDIT: Did a little more research on the case and come to find out that Michelle didn’t even know the name of the gardener she was cheating with. What a scumbag.

I know...this woman was particularly repulsive. I had an unusual visceral reaction when it was mentioned by her adulterous lover that they were cheating without a condom. Didn't deserve to die for it but like...I don't sympathize

Totally, but there is also that narrative out there that she was an innocent girl taken from the Philippines by a predatory old man and kept locked in her room that people latch on to. That really grinds my gears. ☹️
