Yes. Or that you must have been mistaken in some way, or misunderstood what happened, or are exaggerating, or changed your mind after the fact, and so on.

I thought his name was pronounced Dead Mow Five?? I’m so embarrassed. I’m turning into my mother already.

Oh they always claim a friend of a cousin or whatever totally had it happen to him.

Jesus. Why are there so many fucking scumbags abusing children and women? For real, this is nuts. I was having a conversation with a bunch of men at my office and they were talking about crazy women making false rape allegations. I advised that false allegations are rare and that the vast majority of rape victims have …

I get it. And I’m so sorry. I was also sexually abused as a small child (I can’t remember when it started, but I was 3 or 4). I was also raped a couple times in my early 20s. My mother’s response was “we’ll never speak of this again.” Another relative told me I needed to pray and repent and then I would feel better.…

I had a sexual assault incident when I was a teenager. I was on vacation with my family in Florida. I walked on a beach at night eating a candy bar. I was 15 looking for a party I was invited to earlier that day while sitting on the beach. No one was on the beach except a man was sitting at the edge of the water. He…

So this Nanny didn’t sext or proposition her husband so much send a text meant for her friend extolling his hotness to him by mistake?

She demonstrated knowledge that what she was doing was wrong, would cause his family to hate her and for the police to come after her. Even in the presence of serious psychological issues which I would argue are not evident here, this ability to discern right from wrong prevents her from using the insanity defense.

ETA: holy shit, the teenage psyche is just so complicated and crazy and I don’t know how any of us made it out and became semi-functioning sort-of adults.

She’s a fucking asshole. I’m sorry for her own mental health, but that doesn’t excuse all the horrible things she did.

It seems like she understands that what she was doing was fucked up and that it had legal consequences, so I’m not sure how her mental state is relevant here from a legal perspective.

When one person bullies another into suicide using social media and other means, people in general agree they should be culpable. This woman’s actions would seem to be pretty the same, the only issue is whether she has an insanity defense. From an intent perspective, she clearly intended her boyfriend to harm himself,…

She’s straight up evil. It was horrifying to read when the story first came out.

CONRAD: Like, why am I so hesitant lately. Like two weeks ago I was willing to try everything and now I’m worse, really bad and I’m LOL not following through. It’s eating me inside.

“He sent the message at 6:25 p.m., then told his mother he was leaving the house to visit a friend and not to expect him home for dinner. He made a short drive to a remote corner of the Fairhaven Kmart parking lot. At 6:28 p.m., he called Carter and talked to her for 43 minutes. At 7:12, she called him. The call…

Living in Massachusetts, I have been following the case since her arrest and what she did was seriously messed up.

Can the hottie reporter play himself?

Omg. That (Brendan Dassey parts, especially his “ confession” and phone call to his mom) was the most heart wrenching thing I’ve ever seen :(

Cela est une quantité suffisante d’ Internet pour aujourd’hui. Je vais prendre un verre de vin rouge.

They should have just handed her the award when she was done. I felt like my heart was being ripped out through my chest. (I’m proud of my fellow survivors for standing up and speaking out and wish I’d had that much courage 30 years ago)
