T-4-2,
Thank you so much. I was wondering how Bobby got away. It wasn't just because he had nothing. Her disorder and fear of abandonment wouldn't have allowed him to simply walk away. But that's right... She was fixated on another target (MM). She always has to have another victim lined up before she can move on from her previous relationship. Even then, she still has a need to keep these men in her life.
She was dead set (please excuse the phrasing) on murdering Travis, but she still had Ryan Burns next in line. Not only for an alibi, but because she's incapable of being alone. Fortunately for society, she will now be alone for the rest of her life, minus the whackjob murder groupies.
How does it feel to be a liar with pants always on fire?
Maybe the reason she kept taking her pants off was that they kept bursting into flames.
I sometimes feel like a bit of a hypocrite -- in my more charitable moments -- for making an issue out of Jodi's sex life. But she made an issue of it herself. Sex and nudity are not the problem, it's the way she uses them, and talks about them,
all the time, in a deliberate attempt to shock, disgust, offend, hurt, embarrass a third of the world's population, arouse another third, and evoke pity/sympathy/protectiveness in the remaining third. In the case of certain jury foremen, she achieved all of the above.
How can Jodi be such an over the top narcissist
and have no real identity of her own? If she's all that and a bag of chips, why does she need a "host male" to feed off of? Even when she was actually in a relationship with Travis, I think she was always aware of potential alternatives. PPL guys. LDS guys. Even Travis' friends. (Sort of like Carrie Fisher's character in "When Harry Met Sally," who carries around a little file box of 3x5 cards on which she makes notes on the current relationship status of every even minimally eligible man an in her extended social circle... neighbor's friend's cousin's ex-dog walker, etc.) I think Jodi was always keeping tabs on all the men she knew.
Is always keeping tabs. She's still doing it to whatever extent she can.
If she's left with only whackjob murder groupies, she'll just make the necessary adjustments in her goals. Murder groupies are a pretty fickle bunch I'd imagine. As more and more of them abandon Jodi, she will again make the necessary adjustments and look for validation from prison staff and her fellow inmates. IMHO. I think she'll always find a way to make the best of her situation and this really irritates me. Certainly I support the humane treatment of prisoners... but in Jodi's case I'd like her to be treated humanely but still be utterly miserable. "Just" murdering Travis would have been bad enough, but combined with her behavior both before and after, and her obvious efforts to cause as much collateral damage to as many people as possible, just makes me want her to be miserable. (Of course, she didn't treat Travis humanely, but she's a psychopathic murderer whereas society in general has to at least try to behave in a civilized fashion.)
There's only one thing that will make her shut up. Unfortunately she's achieved such a high level of infamy that even after she's gone, she will not be forgotten -- which is something else that really irritates me.
