In online discussions about dating, there’s a lot of talk about “red flags.” Often, these red flags aren’t something that you’d expect — for example, saying “gnocchi” wrong or ordering a dessert. In some cases, however, things that you might think would absolutely be a red flag are swept under the rug. Things in this category include not tipping and, oh yeah, first-degree murder.

“I just found out that he wasn’t ghosting. He was just on trial for first-degree murder!” our influencer says. As she shows off her outfit, she says, “And, like, he was guilty, but he had a really hard childhood, so, like, I don’t know — let’s see where it goes!”


The person in the video is Sara Ruth Brown, who is a comedian and actor. Given that, it’s likely that the story told in this video is fake, though who knows? Stranger things have happened — people married Charles Manson, after all.


On that topic, the replies and quote tweets to the post that featured this clip indicated that, yes, bigger red flags have been ignored.




Additionally, given the prevalence of true-crime obsessed people who want to bang mass murderers, it really does seem like there’s someone out there for everyone. So if you’re on trial for first-degree murder, just hang in there — the right person is bound to come along. Just try to control yourself this time.
