Dr <mod snip> just said someone like Jodi <mod snip> who was experiencing "acute stress" would not be capable of "extravagant planning" I sure hope Juan Martinez tears him apart about how very strategic her planning was prior to, during and after the brutal and horrific butchering of Travis. Attempt to clean up or alter the crime scene ("cleaning" dna off Travis' body, washing sheets and towels with bleach, flooding bathroom, deleting photos), all efforts made to remove any trace of her being there in the house, removing her bloody clothing etc. Then the leaving her phone off until she got out of the state, removing and disposing of weapons and other evidence in the desert, driving hundreds of miles out of her way to get back to her original Pasadena-to-Utah route instead of driving straight from PHX to Utah. That all sounds like considerable "extravagant planning" or strategic thinking to me, not the actions of someone in a terrorized, traumatized "fog".
Add to that that within hours she was spreading her legs over Ryan, "grinding" and "adjusting" him and who knows what else, acting completely normal for her, hypersexual, needy, upbeat and chipper as could be. According to the accounts of many people, she was just fiiiiine....for Jodi, not one person noted that she seemed upset, scared, sad, nervous, jumpy, weepy or anything of the sort. I am anxiously anticipating Juan asking if someone who has experienced such a "horrible trauma" that causes such "acute stress" could be in the bed of a new man within hours "courting" lol, going out to dinners and other events in such a cheerful and convivial mood.
I, as a person with *real* PTSD, as a survivor of a very violent domestic situation which also included psychological terrorism and marital rape am insulted and enraged by what JA's ridiculous pathological lies about Travis abusing her and her fake PTSD are doing to legitimate DV survivors and those who struggle every single day and night with definitively diagnosed PTSD. She's diminishing and doing a great disservice to real victims and survivors and those struggling and making a mockery of all of us.:furious:
In any case, I don't see how it is relevant that she came down with a case of the old Performing Travis' Death Syndrome AFTER the fact. It wouldn't be relevant if she fell down the stairs on her way out and broke her neck or if she was hit by a car in the street getting into her rental car and broke every bone in her body or if she ran off the road and wrapped her car around a tree or if she stopped at the closest Starbucks on her way out and someone slipped a roofie into her Strawberry Frappe. It doesn't matter!! Arghhh!!
