But letters from Chad never stopped coming.

Every few weeks, there'd be that distinctive envelope in their mailbox.

She never replied, hoping his letters would finally stop coming.

But one day, she got a letter that was different from the others.

While Chad sat in jail, Danielle was trying to rebuild her life.

That's when she began to get strange letters in the mail.

The return address just said the name Eloisa May.

This is what the letters were about.

Finally, Chad, or Eloisa May, got to the point.

The letters were four, five, six pages long, written in a tiny, neat handwriting that didn't look like Chad's at all.

She assumed that either he was disguising his handwriting or got someone in the jail to write it for him while he dictated.

Either way, the character Chad was putting on was so transparently manipulative.

She suspects that he made the character Southern to try to pull on Danielle's heartstrings because her grandmother was from the South.

A little bit later, he goes...

Chad also used his extensive knowledge of the Bible to try and make Danielle question her decisions.

The Eloisa May letters almost amused her, but they also felt like an insult.

Did he really think she would fall for this?

She kept the Eloisa May letters to remind herself of just how delusional and scheming Chad really was.

A year after his arrest, Chad pled guilty.

But before he faced a sentencing hearing for the kidnapping, they had their divorce trial.
