I agree, I think this is pretty standard. I have seen multiple charges like this against a defendant and then through the course of the trial, the jury decides specifically the extent of the crimes that were committed. It's fairly straightforward to prove that a murder occurred with physical...

I thought it was pretty widely believed that with adrenaline in survival fight or flight mode, humans are capable of great strength? It can't really be scientifically tested, because it has to be a high-stress situation. But there have been plenty of documented incidences of super human...

Aha! That is where I read that they believe she was killed in her home. Thanks!

On the day of his arrest, I am 99% certain I read on a legitimate news site (WIFR? RRSTAR?), a quote from LE that they believed that Katrina was killed in her home and then her body was transported in her own car to the river. Long weekend, now I am searching everywhere and cannot find that...

Looks like her house is an inheritance property. I think that would mean TS has no claim to it? Single Family 8239 Tetterhall Lane N/A | 1.5 | 1373 Jun. 11 $125,000 Buyer: Katrina A Nalevac Seller: RJK (Executor) and IEK (Estate) via...

-- 115 pounds does seem almost anorexic for a grown man of 5'6". Perhaps in the last month he has dropped a few pounds from stress? He could have been 125-130 at the time of the murder. --I live in Illinois and keep track of most of the murders. $1 million is considered a pretty high...

I agree with you, so maybe I wasn't being clear. The people with the most motive are the people with time invested in relationships that have recently ended. That would be Todd and the female Ex of Katrina's new boyfriend. I am sure LE is looking at both of them. New relationships rarely...

Yes. A person who had been in a relationship with a psychopath, would have a higher likelihood of attracting and being attracted to another psychopath in the future. Even when trying to consciously avoid the same type of person again, it just seems to happen. It doesn't help that psychopaths...

The good news is, psychopaths are typically arrogant and believe that they can outsmart everyone else. This is where they make mistakes and slip up, and this is where they get caught. And they will adamantly deny any wrong doing until the day they die. So be prepared for a fight if there is...

Thanks for writing this, it is exactly what I have wanted to say but wasn't sure if this sort of content was allowed here. I have spent the last 20 years studying human behavior and feel pretty confident in observing and identifying sociopaths, narcissists and psychopaths. Psychological...

After watching the family's testimonies, I was thinking that Katrina isn't the only victim here. Her stepdaughters are victims for losing Katrina from their life. As is everyone else who loved her, her family and friends. The ripple effect of her murder is immeasurable. I really wish...

It appears that a video of the entire funeral has been posted at Katrina's funeral home obituary site. It is over an hour long. http://www.gracefh.com/obituaries/Katrina-Smith/#/PhotosVideos/00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000001/WebcastVideo

I respectfully disagree. The only thing about this case that is known for sure is that Katrina was murdered, and in a violent manner. So I do think that mentioning that "some people" choose to abandon their car and fake their own death, is insensitive to the victim and not contributing to a...

If this is obviously not the case in this situation, then why even bring up an alternate theory that maybe Katrina disappeared herself? You are starting to sound like a criminal defense attorney, such that Drew Peterson and Scott Peterson had, setting up a defense for trial. It's the first...
