Thanks for your perspective. Please remember to take care of yourself. I'm sure you know this, but there's a few support groups online for people who care for someone with a severe disability.
Exactly. Given the level of abuse the first wife said she went through - if this woman was treated the same way, and she had some cognitive challenges... I know people who could be completely innocent but manipulated by someone without a conscience. It’s certainly possible, and even probable.
I’m not going to just assume she’s innocent and the idea that she’d claim this to save her own ass (which I doubt, really) makes me sick, but you wouldn’t believe how many innocent people who did NOTHING to deserve it or cause it are affected by things like this, often unidentified.

You know you can just donate money to the Girl Scouts any old time, right? Look, they even take credit cards! http://www.girlscouts.org/en/adults/dona…
YEP.
Thank you. Not “relationship,” either. Predatory behavior and grooming. And fuck that fucking family.
“It’s very rare that someone is involved in a homicide case with someone they just had a baby with. It’s very early to make a conclusion as to what the cause, intent, motive and facts were to this unfortunate tragedy.”
Here’s hoping avoiding using the quote itself will preclude assholes from showing up to passionately argue that it’s just not FAIR to suggest women being tortured, raped and murdered is somehow worse than men’s feelings being hurt.
Gawd, right? It’s like we don’t even need to quote her anymore. Just shorthand her name and we ALL know what’s being said.
