I'm not one to besmirch the names of the dead, so RIP to them both. You got to read between the lines guys: he may have been a bit violent, but did she throw her success in his face and was she antagonizing him? If so, how often?
She was being intimate with many, many people other than him, how long would you be able to tolerate that? No, he shouldn't have done it, he should've just walked away, but did she say or do anything that might've pushed him too far?
Anybody trying to "both sides" a man brutally murdering a woman is trash. You are clearly an incel.
Live in your own make believe world then. Ignore what the majority of people think. It's the very definition of delusional.
Yes, I believe in God and his ways. If that makes me delusional, then I'm delusional to the world here. The definition of worldly with your thinking. I agree that most people would not like Amy's look. I don't differ at all there. I would not say masculine, but you did. The sport itself has huge issues with that and has gone down the toilet for that reason and the fact it is flat out boring.
Wait for the coroner's inquest and find out what really happened and why.
The coroner will tell you how she died. I don't think that is the whole picture here. This was a troubled person. We may never know the real cause. I'd bet we learn little that is more than cause of death. We never found a true motive for the Vegas shooter who killed so many with promises for years we would learn more.
There is a whole lot of arguing in here.
How about you all just knock it off and just pray / mourn / or do whatever you do, for someone that has died.

Finally a smart person with a brain here! Exactly!
I split this off from the RIP thread to contain the hot takes and arguing from those who want to mourn.
She made the money. He didn't. In ANY male-female relationship anywhere in the world outside of Scandinavia, that's emasculating and for MOST (not all) men, that emasculation is a generally negative thing. He loved what she could provide for them both, but would have preferred to be the primary bread-winner. He loved her money, but hated her for it. Maybe a friend made a sideways comment to him in jest, maybe she occasionally reminded him of his place, and/or maybe it was all internal. It could have been any number of things, but in my opinion - based on hours and hours and hours of true crime TV/podcast listening and research about the nature of people - there was an element of this which led to his motivation for murder. And TO BE CLEAR: this motivation would have been present even if they had a middle-class or just-above-poverty income and lifestyle.
I'm not arguing what's right or wrong. I'm just arguing what is. Immature, unsophisticated, and insecure misogynists struggle with a woman doing anything better than them, especially earning. Hell, even HIGHLY-educated and seemingly sophisticated men struggle with this, too.
There are so many fucking layers here (from my Western perspective), but once he killed her, he had no choice but to kill himself. Some will argue he wanted to escape accountability and that's probably true. But also, he had just killed the golden goose. His lifestyle was gone.
Agreed with Tre's take.
And this kind of dynamic is sadly common in bodybuilding.
Lots of FBB's experience DV and rape in their youth. Bodybuilding is a way to compensate for that, and they're vulnerable to predators.
Lots of MBB's have deep insecurity and use external physical strength to make up for the weakness that they have inside.
Put these two together. And introduce the dynamic of vastly higher earnings and recognition for the woman, and the relationship quickly becomes toxic and abusive.

Nailed it. Some of the hardest stories to hear about are those of women who overcame DV and other traumas because of bodybuilding only to land in the same bullshit again, only now it's worse because they thought they'd achieved freedom from that reality.
I'm reading post and some are blaming her death on money or steroids hinting that it was her fault those post are disgusting and you are some sick individuals stuck in a fantasy world so far gone from reality, i see now why many women these places R.I.P Amy and i hope that sicko that murdered her burns in hell
That is what I want to be in a crazy hate filled world. Normal. Lets all be normal. Good luck with that.
