As someone familiar with verbal, emotional and psychological abuse, it's so exhausting to read these tweets about PF's defense strategy, which is just a whole lot of gaslighting and DARVO (deny, attack, and reverse victim and offender). Trying to paint the picture that somehow PF is the victim here. Trying to get the jury to think KS basically deserved whatever happened to her, and whatever happened to her surely wasn't at the hands of the whole Flores family.

Eagerly awaiting each trial day, but the mental gymnastics the defense is trying to perform, and trying to get the jury to buy into is so, so tiring. Thanks for keeping us all up to speed @Emi !

IME, the jury doesn’t usually care for this defense strategy and often sees right thru it. I’m praying these juries do the same.
