I've been wondering--do socio/psychopaths and disordered thinkers KNOW that something is wrong with them, or do they think only THEY are sane and the rest of the world is nuts? I mean, when confronted with easily disproved lies, is their thinking so "off" that they do not admit to themselves that yes, they lied?
I notice that when she lied to Det. Melich about Universal, she finally admitted it. Yet she gave her "reason" for it. She always qualifies her lies as being for good reason.
I just can't wrap my head around her thinking. All through the trial, I wondered if she thought, "Wow, I can't believe they figured that out!" or "Man, I had no idea that forensics could trip me up like this." On the other hand, she might have been thinking, "But no one understands why Caylee HAD to be killed. Don't they see the problems I had in MY life?" She hates others for exposing her lies, fraud, and behavior, but I bet she'd be the first to scream if someone offended her in some way.
I mean, I don't think she was out of touch with reality in the same way as Andrea Yates, who heard and obeyed voices, or Charles Manson. Either she truly does not understand others' reason and logic, or she understands it but refuses to honor it.
