Alert – Netflix most watched show Worst Ex Ever leaves viewers furious

Social media users who’ve watched Worst Ex Ever have expressed their outrage at the show – which highlights domestic abuse and law enforcements’ reactions.

The new Netflix docuseries features four episodes of horror stories told by survivors who were abused by their former significant others.

Each real-life case is different, and nearly all of the show’s dreaded exes are currently serving prison sentences. But the show has stirred outrage online. 

‘I am furious watching because the Police clearly don’t give a damn about this women. #WorstExEver,’ wrote an X user.

The new Netflix docuseries tells four significant other horror stories, one being about Seemona Sumasar and her then-boyfriend and future rapist Jerry Ramrattan

Worst Ex Ever introduced Netflix users to four unhealthy partners – Benjamin Foster, Jerry Ramrattan, Rosa Hill, and Kevin Lewis.

Foster went from a charming boyfriend to a man who tortured his then-girlfriend for three days after she discovered his violent past.

Ramrattan also seemed like the perfect man until he raped his then-girlfriend and framed her for a series of robberies while out on bond, leading to her arrest and indictment in 2010.

Hill and her husband Eric, had a seemingly happy family life, but that changed after a judge granted him primary physical and legal custody of their child while divorcing.

She retaliated by murdering Eric’s 91-year-old grandmother and teamed up with her mother to attack him when he came home with their child.

Lewis was the ‘monster’ who attacked his ex-wife Amanda Canales several times after she asked for a divorce in 2016.

After Canales finally secured a protection order, Lewis hired his cousin to murder Canales in retaliation, which resulted in the death of her sister, Alisha. 

The only torturer featured on the show not serving a jail sentence is Foster, who evaded police for days before he shot himself in the head.  

Various X users were angered with law enforcement for their actions, many tweets primarily focusing on Benjamin Foster and Kevin Lewis

‘The Netflix show “Worst EX Ever’ is Insane but for everybody who’s ever said to call the police on an abuser the 1st episode is evidence why sometimes it’s just isn’t enough,’ an X user tweeted right after the series debuted in August.

‘I’m two episodes in on Netflix’s “Worst Ex Ever” and the common theme so far is that police are useless and incompetent,’ a person tweeted this morning.

Another X user wrote: ‘This show #WorstExEver is absolutely insane. I thought it was a documentary but turns out it’s a series. The stories just get worse and more absurd. What’s wrong with people?!.’

X users also ferociously targeted the criminals in their tweets, primarily Foster and Lewis.

‘Watching #WorstExEver and I’m so pissed off. Look how useless the police and court system is. Multiple reports, different women, and they still let Ben Foster out into the population,’ an X user wrote.

Another case that social media users had a problem with was the Lewis/Canales ordeal, which led to the death of an abuse victim’s sister.

‘The justice system once again failing women. So much could have been avoided if police had listened to the women and taken them seriously. Amanda’s story breaks my heart. She lost her sister in all of this,’ tweeted an X user.

One person wrote: ‘The one relative who could tell something was off about Kevin was the one who ended up dying because of him. The family dismissed her concerns because “she was always opinionated.” Society hates women who speak up when they should be listening to them.’

Some X users claimed, in general, that law enforcement allegedly don’t take women seriously when it comes to domestic violence.

Other social media users claimed law officials do not take domestic violence complaints seriously when a woman accuses her partner of being the abuser

‘Worst Ex Ever is basically just a cautionary tale for women and the lesson is that police may not listen to or even attempt to protect you, and even if they do, the judges and the DA’s office will still let your abuser off easy almost every single time. Absolutely infuriating,’ wrote an X user.

Another person tweeted: ‘Currently watching this series, which is rough. But the first two episodes should be called “Worst Cops Ever.” Netflix missed the theme: it’s not abusive exes; it’s the justice system that lets them run free or allows them to make their victims’ lives a living hell.’

‘In the Worst Ex Ever docuseries on Netflix, you see how the judicial system can fail domestic violence survivors,’ one person wrote. 

‘Even when the women were able to get away they dealt with some bulls**t. I was shocked.’
