Call 4: The Calls From the Inside Gypsy to Michelle 8-1-2016 BuzzFeed Interview: Escape Attempts and Abuse Reflections(Part 1)
Gypsy Rose In Her Own WordsShow Notes
In her first extensive call with Michelle Dean, Gypsy expresses relief at being outdoors after thirteen months in Green County's windowless jail.
She shares that her mother did not properly school her, leaving her with a second-grade education, but she plans to earn her GED, work, and join the CHAMP dog-training program. Gypsy recounts her 2011 runaway attempt; her mother tracked her down within four hours, smashed her computer and cell phone, and chained her to a bed with a dog leash and handcuffs. Gypsy reflects on researching Munchausen by proxy on jail tablets, realizing her mother fit every symptom, and expresses frustration that only one neurologist raised suspicions. She recalls hugging her attorney in celebration over the ten-year plea agreement.
Insider From Fancy: This is our baseline. The beginning of every lie. The way in which she does it with such ease is really shocking. By the time she got to me she was much more polished but her ability to think and make up things on the fly is astounding. These calls with Michelle Dean & Erin Lee Carr are very telling and I am fascinated to finally hear how the story started to be spun before the ink on DeeDee's autopsy was even dry. To me this feels like a very planned and calculated story that I do not believe that Gypsy had the capacity to come up with on her own. The fact that the Pitre family's statements from the 14th to the 17th included stories stating Gypsy was never sick, and words like we think it's Munchausen By Proxy show me that this wasn't just a case of a murder to escape a controlling mother. It was planned, and the narrative was already set in place long before the blade went into DD's body. I am filled with anger, grief, disappointment, and a wealth of feelings. Please have grace for us as we process all of this and know we will always seek truth. This call is absolutely one Mack and I will be discussing soon.
JUST REMEMBER "THINGS ARE NOT ALWAYS AS THEY APPEAR." SHERRIF ARNOTT PLEASE VERIFY THESE CALLS AGAINST OUR DECADE LONG COVERAGE OF THIS CASE, THE FULL FOIA FILES, GYPSY'S MEDICAL RECORDS (GIVEN TO US BY KRISTY AND GYPSY BLANCHARD). THE ANSWERS EVERYONE HAS ALWAYS WANTED. THE TRUTH IS IN THE DELETION. THE TRUTH HAS ARRIVED.

August 27, 2016 — Gypsy Rose Blanchard to Nick (Rachel’s Cousin) This jaw-dropping call from late August 2016 catches the ultimate breakdown of Gypsy’s "innocent victim" narrative. Speaking freely with Rachel’s ex, Nick, Gypsy behaves as an incredibly street-smart, highly inappropriate, and fame-obsessed inmate—bragging about her international headlines, detailing sexual exploits, and laughing off serious jailhouse incidents. The $50 Mystery Money: Gypsy discovers a random $50 deposit on her prison account. Upon confirming Nick did not send it for her "best friend" Rachel, Gypsy immediately keeps it for herself, celebrating: "Oh, great. Now it's my money... Some random person put money on my account. Woohoo". Cosmetology and Kim Kardashian Hair: Gypsy plans to spend her mystery cash at the prison cosmetology yard to dye her hair, debating whether to go for a Kim Kardashian pitch-black look or a lighter ombre style to hide her roots. A "Cool Dad" and "Daddy's Girl" Tattoos: Gypsy brags about her father Rod's wild side, including his nipple piercings, and plans her post-prison tattoos—specifically wanting a "Daddy's Girl" anchor tattoo on her calf. Plans to "Get Knocked Up": Gypsy shares her explicit post-prison timeline with Nick, stating that the absolute first thing she will do upon release is get pregnant: "The minute I get out, the first thing I'm doing is going to get knocked up... I'm just strapping him to a bed... and you can't tell me no." The Prison "Boob Contest" Victory: Gypsy proudly boasts that she and her roommates held an impromptu physical beauty contest during her receiving and orientation phase. Bragging about her easy victory, she laughs: "Everybody's like, 'Has porn star boobs?' Thank you very much. Born this way. Beautiful". Cashing In on USA Today Fame: Rather than feeling remorse or shame, Gypsy gleefully recounts her national and international headlines, sharing that she is collecting prison pen pals from other facilities who wrote to her after seeing her mugshot on USA Today. Dismantling her Mugshot "Twin": Gypsy complains about her viral arrest mugshot where people said she looked like a 12-year-old boy or her ex Nick Godejohn's twin, snapping: "It really annoyed me. I'm like, I'm not a f*ing dude" JUST REMEMBER "THINGS ARE NOT ALWAYS AS THEY APPEAR."

FAIR USE COPYRIG
We mistakenly identified Nona as Rachell Miller. She is not. Her name is Marsha and she was one of the concierge at Mercy Hospital. August 23, 2016 — Gypsy Rose Blanchard to Nona Marsha "A College Kind of Thing": Gypsy boasts about the sheer luxury of WRDCC compared to county jail, calling prison "a world inside of a world" and comparing it to a college campus with recreation yards, baseball fields, and cable television. The Flat-Screen Upgrade: Glossing over her second-degree murder charge, Gypsy excitedly brags about purchasing a brand new 15-inch flat-screen TV and stocking her room with "real food" and snacks from the commissary. The Prison Glow-Up: Rejecting any image of a suffering inmate, Gypsy proudly tells Nona that she is no longer "transparent" like she was in county, boasting that she has a fresh tan and is wearing "real makeup" behind bars. Cashing In On BuzzFeed: Gypsy celebrates Michelle Dean's BuzzFeed article reaching millions of readers, actively using the public sympathy to plot her next career move: spending her seven and a half years in prison planning and writing a highly profitable book. Is there not one decent person around her to tell her maybe she should do her time, heal, and tell the truth. Not a single one of them. This woman was DD's friend. Building the Network: Gypsy hands out her DOC inmate number (132048) to coordinate an extensive outside mailing list, ensuring fans, religious figures, and family keep her books funded and her mailbox full.
