I don't subscribe to the accident theory either. I would ask JWG why he believes drowning? My understanding is that the unusually high levels of chloroform found in KC's trunk were not a result of pool chemicals. Also, my recollection was that cadaver dogs did not hit on the pool, rather on other areas of the backyard. In addition, I believe I saw one report earlier on (on CNN) that if there had been a drowning, there would have been significant evidence (vomiting, other body fluids) in the pool water and that such evidence had not been found.
I believe that KC is a true narcissist and sociopath and could not stand the attention her daughter was receiving from CA. Not to mention the huge inconvenience her daughter played in her social life. Just reading the post that CA left on KC's myspace on July 3 is so telling about their relationship. I think after their fight on 6/15, KC made up her mind to eliminate the perceived "obstacle" in her life.
I came across a link to operationdoubles when reading another WS's post on narcissism and how it relates to KC. I think the information below is spot on:
(from www.narcissism.operationdoubles.com/strategy_of_narcissism.htm)
Remember that a narcissist's goal is attention. His or her whole life is a game of monopoly for it all. Keep in mind that attention comes in many forms, including regard, love, and respect.
The grandiosity is an excuse to justify hogging it all.
The abuse denies it, bringing the victim low, either by slander or treating them like dirt.
The lack of empathy is partly play-acting grandiosity by viewing the deprived victim as a bug and partly to un-conscience the cruelty of narcissistic abuse.
So, at bottom, it's all about attention.
Though a narcissist may be overtly exhibitionistic at times, NPD is different from other attention-getting disorders. A narcissist's attention getting is covert most of the time. There are two reasons for this.
· She can't abuse just anyone without risk of payback. So, (normally) she needs to project an image that reflects well on her. People respond negatively to any but subtle exhibitionism that somehow stays beneath their radar. So, exhibitionism rarely gets a narcissist the reflection she wants to see in people's faces.
· Needing to be the center of attention is a childhood trait. Being childish is not grandiose, so the narcissist must get attention without seeming to seek or want it.
Besides, a god isn't exhibitionistic. God is self-sufficient, needing nothing from anyone. God never cries out for attention. Instead, she is subtle: she needs to project an image of herself as so special that others owe her all their attention without her having to ask for it. Or appreciate it (which would be paying some attention back). In other words, she acts like a queen, who is above noticing all the attention she gets from everyone around her but regards her dignity as slighted by anything less than all of it.
This absurdly haughty attitude is born of another thing that distinguishes narcissistic attention-getting from other personality disorders. Narcissists are infinitely stingy with their own attention and infinitely covetous of everybody else's. In fact, their most characteristic behaviors are behaviors that deny attention to anyone but themselves.
She cannot stand to see anyone else get any. That's stealing from her. She is just like a spoiled brat who won't share her toys.
