Exactly what I thought. Be a good obedient girl *pat* *pat*. What a j**k. I realize TLM is the dredge of the earth but can you imagine being that deperate for someone to love you?
He interacted with TLM in a weird way ... I almost have to wonder if his mom patted his head like that; that patting the head represented affection or manipulation to him. For whatever reason, when he wanted to be sure that TLM kept her mouth shut, he patted her head like most people pat a dog.
How could anyone believe that this guy was duped ... his lawyer must be trying to score points for lawyering by defending this guy. There is no way that a real lawyer could actually believe this duped story.
