My husband and I are both retired police officers.Quite by chance we came acrosss the documentary on Sky televison on a cold wet day here in New Zealand. We are both saddened at the loss you have experienced and inspired by the tremendous love you as parents,friends and film maker have been able to demonstrate. Through my tears I am sad to say that here in New Zealand there are sad stories of the Justice or Mental Health systems also failing families. We wish you well and thank you for sharing your story.

Just finished watching this incredible film. What an amazing and wonderful tribute to a beautiful family. Like everyone I was speechless and stunned to learn that not only was a truly wonderful person like Andrew Bagby taken before his time, but then his darling, precious little baby's life was stolen as well.
Mr. and Mrs. Bagby are two amazing people to be able to go on and not let the legacy of their son's life die along with him. My family has suffered a murder too - my 23 year old brother was stabbed to death almost 30 years ago. May God bless the Bagby's and all the other people on the film who were willing to tell of their deepest sorrow and expose their pain so openly.
Andrew and Zachary did not live in vain, and although their physical bodies are forever gone from this world, their memory will always go on living, they are alive in eternity, and the time they spent here will prove to serve true justice for others. God bless all of you who made this film possible.

My tears throughout this documentary cannot possibly begin to express the strength of character I have witnessed or the depth of sorrow for your loss. I am left in awe of the Bagby family and those whose heartfelt commentary WILL change the course of Canadian law.

Kurt, Mr. and Mrs. Bagby, all the family and friends who participated in this film you have shown incredible strength, courage, and wisdom in times that couldn't possibly have been any darker. I cannot find the words to express my awe, my admiration, and my respect that I feel towards you all. I will do my part in helping you wonderful people find the closure, the justice, and the peace that you deserve and seek. You will be in my thoughts and prayers. I love you all.

You've done an amazing job. Not only did you bring Andrew to life, but through you real change has come to the world. Hopefully there will be fewer children put in harm's way. You have improved the world :) Thank you for a very beautiful tribute to a wonderful family.

I had this docu-movie in my Netflix lineup for about two week's now. Today I decided to watch. I cannot count how many times I gasped - openly wept - smiled and grimaced while taking in all the steps.
I wish that every one of us on earth could experience the type of friend you were to David. How rich we would all be.
Thank you for this incredible treat.

I have gone on too long: THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS FILM. As a parent it scares the shit out of me and my kids are far from dating age. But I am better for having watched it. I thank GOD for people like Andrew's parents-we need more people like them. They decided to change the system that allowed these horrible crimes to occur. They are protecting all the other Andrew's and Zachary's-everyone's Andrew's and Zachary's... Please do not misunderstand, it is not that I did not think it would be good; to the contrary, I love documentaries. When I read the premise I was really worried I would carry this around with me. Well I AM carrying this around with me but I never thought there would be so much that was positive impressed upon me.
I am a wife to a wonderful loving and amazing husband and mother to 3 fantastic young children. For whatever reason possessed me I decided to start watching this film on Mother's Day while my DH put the kids to bed. It just felt like the right time so I had to watch it.
This film was AMAZING! It was poignant, heartfelt, funny, beautiful, heartbreaking, enraging, raw, primal, and it was one of the most affectionate tributes to a life I have ever seen! I have great admiration for Andrew's parents and Zachary's Grandparents. I absolutely supported their complete emotions being shown-esp. the father's anger at the woman who murdered his son and grandson. These are powerful and true emotions and they needed to be shared. When he recounted a plan he had gone over in his head to stop the murderer of his son by killing her to protect Zachary I was right there with him thinking the same thing. Protect the innocent child-his grandchild-his son's son.
His gut instinct was right on-he knew in his gut what he wanted to do-what he had to do-it was a primal intuition to protect life- but he was too moral unlike the murderer. I can not think of anyone who would not have had the same reaction to such a ...

Well, I really kept putting off watching this film. I added it to the cue on Netflix months ago but I could not watch it. I felt I had to be ready to be angry and sad and everything in-between. Obviously, I seriously underestimated the filmmaker.

This film is still haunting me to a certain degree, but I'm glad. I'm very glad I watched this film, and I hope everyone in Andrew's family is doing ok.
My mother in law went through a tough time with some of her kids and their significant others, including scares about child custody, as well as losing her oldest son and dealing with animosity from his wife's family. I always thought she'd gone through some horrible times, but I'm eternally grateful it wasn't as bad as your story. Your film made me thankful for everything I have today.

Thank You, the film was on netflix. I watched it tonight. Thank God that this family has taken action for change, even through this incredible pain and loss. I will tell every one from Canada that visits my town about this cause and pray that the Senate will enact legislation soon. This film will touch the hearts of many and bring about good changes. Blessings to everyone involved, and thanks for being so strong.

I wanted to send my prayers to the family and wanted to let you know that your actions have inspired me to continue in the same steps as you have. My sister was murdered by my brother in law, he never went to jail and was never charged. My sister was killed in Wisconsin and it was left as a suspicious death. My brother in law remarried with 30 days of my sisters death and took custody of my neices. My brother in law had tried to rape my cousin when she was a minor, and we had to threaten to send him for jail for that crime to gain custody of my neices. My mom and dad remind me so much of both of you, showing kindness and love even without the most horrible of pain.
I had put my book on hold about my sister which is called, "BlueBerry Farm" because my grief is so strong that I cant even stop crying about what we have been through, just as your own family.
Thank you for inspiring me to continue my family's fight!!
