A woman is murdered off screen but you do hear sounds and see blood. She is pregnant. Later you see the body and it is very graphic. Blood trigger. The murder scene is shown later.

Not specifically abandoned I guess but it was triggering for me. After her mother is killed a baby is left alone in a crib for many many hours. Long enough that when she's found she's dirty from the diaper being too full.

I voted yes just because of the photos in Episode 6 of Betty post mortem, which shows in graphic detail how half of her face was smashed to a pulp. Episode 7 shows part of the killing, including an axe to the skull, but the rest of the head trauma is off screen.

They show the aftermath in ep 4 but not the actual deed. Body is covered with blood, and there’s blood splatters all over the room, but there was no missing limbs or mutilated face of any kind.

I think the narrative is neutral when it comes to law enforcement. The cops do act somewhat unethically but they are called out on it.

There’s a scene in episode 2 of a woman giving birth. It isn’t graphic, but they are in a hospital room and you see their reactions throughout.

Quite a bit. And it could be distressing to some, given the reason the baby is crying, and how long the baby is left crying.

Betty suspects that she might be pregnant shortly before her death, but it was revealed at the very end that she wasn't. Which is strange, because the other mini series about this case says she was.

Not but a character is French kissed for the first time. Although the character is not technically a virgin, there’s a kind of focus on their lack of experience with sexual intimacy.
