conceivable woman kill partner just to get away from abuse - yes but rare
victim and perpetrator? . . generally dv doesn't stay at that level . . .research says men and women violent with each other most cases men get more violent
no evidence of verbal confrontations you don't see JA trying to increase escalation . . she tries to calm escalation - element of fear in that relationship - I don't see fear or behaviors trying to adjust to the relationship - TA appears to be . .
in her prior two relationships . . . not violent aggressive or jealous
kick mother in past could she been seen as perpetrator?
she could be seen . . . when I look @ perps I hm looking @ power differences
people in a relationship
possible ja exaggerating abuse events? . . .anything is possible
look @ escalation seen with TA
listen to what Hughes have said it is difficult to believe that
high conflict and abuse columns but exaggerating they lean more toward battering and terrorism . .
actually not - it is kind of names and put down and that kind of thing - don't fit in high conflict . . . goes way beyond that said in IM's and texts . . . to ALV abhorrent . . . psychological verbal abuse in a battering kind of range not just abusive kind of range - past that
if don't have whole story on both individuals . . . when working on a murder case you don't have . . . for the most part an expert witness doesn't have access to other side of the equation . . . you gather data and all provided to you . . . I try to get as much of the other person that I can I have a big box of material over the last year and half . . my goal is to get as much info as I can I don't want to be biased . . don't want to see one person point of view . . . in your opinion could ja be a Perp of Travis?
don't see evidence of that
JA guilty of psychological abuse of travis - given we are not privy to their private conversations
I have no evidence of that - in prior relationships I didn't get that from Brewer for 4 years nor MM with her for 2 years indicating she was not jealous, manipulative when they broke up . . . they remained friend
defensive instead of abusive?
any of us can get angry, abusive or defensive . . .tear someone carachter apart . . . that is way . . .bit of extreme @ lower levels and when he escalates it is pretty darn extreme
can 2 individuals grow up in violence later become
sure . . you and your siblings can see things differently . . . friends parent, AUNT, uncle, someone there on regular basis - blame self or blame parent or stay clear of situation . . .scouting troop - part of soft ball or baseball team . . some impact .. . brain development is exponential between 0-6 . . .
disposition, how you come out how you takes things in . . make difference - in family of origin - if neglected, without food, parents violent with each other - generally speaking you will need some help in relationships - if you don't hear or see normal relationships
I wish I could get a complete story from TA . . I can't - only get info from women he involved with, his own writing, I don't think I got a complete story I got as a complete story I could get . .
if low self-esteem and they do something for their partner they don't like ...and shy person doesn't share with them - is that abusive?
it wouldn't take much to know that being called
objection . . . verbal
how quick can escalate from first time people meet
usually there is period of time that doesn't happen . . . don't get into those type of relationships . . .it is differenet . . .once see it there is an escalation . .. over time
prior to JA . . do you know who TA girlfriend was?
a woman named Deanna
believed they together on/off 7 years - she went on a mission she was gone 2 years = TA didn't want her to go - they wrote letters to each other - continued to have a relationship of some sort he thought he took the best 7 yearsr of her life and she deserved a partner . . . loaned him money for a business he started - doesn't know if she got $ back but asked for it
testimony has been based on what JA told you - she lied multiple times - how do you know you are not basing it on lie . . . everything she is saying is truthful
I based it on . . .
objection - how can she
I didn't just base it on what ja told me. . everything I read all materials I read from numerous sourves = I don't know everything she told me was true - I have enough back up from collateral to believe she told me the truth about most things . . the fact she lied about the truth about death of TA doesn't make her a liar - she is human being . . . don't get prior to this event that says JA is a liar
any proof TA abused JA
she had a broken finger
possible ja didn't write those things in her journal because they never happened
it is possible TA didn't write in his either
if JA kicked and hit her mom why not she be plaed in high group for violence on the conflict tactic scale -
only for adudlts not kids
patients killed their partner
yes
JA abused TA?
no evidence of it . . . .nothing in her history in other men in her life or exchanges between 2 of them she had . . there is possible anything but no evidence that supports that
classify their relationship as a love/hate?
classify it as abusive relationship
love/hate relationship - on my continuum - high conflict -people stay together . . don't solve conflict well . . . erodes their relationship stopped caring about each other see as friends but there is an inbalance of power but it goes back and forth
victim of abuse would do this . ..
my experiences with females who are victims when they are afraid of their lives they would not know when to stop . . . people who are trained in combat like police officers or military . . . they often go over the top - excessive force . . hard for anyone o know when to stop - when they would be safe
other than JA word - evidence JA received spiderman underwear and tee shirt with TA
has journal continued to write in her journal after JUNE
don"t know
spent forty four hours with her
first visit was oct
