I'm right there with you AngelWings. You reflect my feelings here more often than not. I had to bring your amazing post forward. I copied it from the last thread. It was closed already by the time I got to it.
THANK YOU FOR THIS

It really seems like you are most interested on trying to interpret other members thoughts and "feelings" on the killer, taking a contrary, condescending tone, and blowing their posts WAY out of proportion. IMO-you really shouldn't take what others say so seriously and to heart. This is a forum, people vent, type their thoughts, not what they would actually do or how they actually feel in real life. Just because someone posts here and expresses opinions on JA, doesn't mean it consumes their every day life. I don't understand what "case facts" you are stating here. The trial is done and over with. She is a convicted killer. Case facts have nothing to do with what others say or type here right now. We are finally on to sentencing, hopefully. What will you do with all your free time come tomorrow? Will you still stop in to continue to tell others they should move on or when/how often to post? Yet, here you are, still posting. Nothing to do with case facts or the prosecution of the case. That ship has sailed a long time ago.
I follow this trial, because I want to follow it. The crime was so horrific and the killers actions afterwards were so out there, nothing would have ever been believed if it were on a movie screen. Yet, it was real life (not to me but the case players.) There were so many things that happened in this super duper secret trial, which were beyond the wildest of imagination. It's understandable why people follow this case. I don't understand why anyone would question it. And, who cares why anyone follows it, especially here at WS? It really seems like others following this case affects you personally. Sometimes, when others are affecting you, especially if just following a case on a public forum bothers you so much, it may be a good time to step back. I'm concerned about the amount of energy you put into what others might think and feel about the killer.
The Alexanders have been put through hell and back by this evil monster. The lies, murder, testimony, characters, acts by counsel and mitigation specialist are nothing that has been seen in prior cases. Not too difficult to understand why people have followed this case. In addition to all of the above and more, you have a man who was slaughtered, nearly decapitated, and a killer who didn't even skip a beat from the very first phone call. This is not normal and truly fascinating. People who came to her defense, writing fake pedo letters, smuggling stuff out of jail, etc...the list goes on and on. This case has been one of a kind, to those who have followed it from the beginning. Truly bizarre and unique.
It seems abnormal to ask anyone why they follow any case and question their motives in doing so. This is a crime forum, people are following all kinds of cases. Oh, and people may actually be following to see the case to the end, when this killer is finally sentenced. Something that should have happened years ago.
Personally, I can't wait for tomorrow. I want to see the killer sentenced and like other cases I have followed, will check in and chime in when I see fit and my schedule allows. None of that should concern any other member on this forum.
Today is the day. May the Alexander family finally have some sense of closure and be able to begin the healing process. Their grief must be unbearable. I can't fathom what they go through on a daily basis. Hopefully, there will be no further delays and they can begin to heal.
Thank you to WS and all the members of this forum who have posted during this trial. It's been a crazy ride, but we are finally here. Justice for Travis.
