When we found out she was charged (we all thought she was guilty before the trial because we know how unhinged she is), one of her friends tried to bully us all into supporting Erin. They also tried to character assassinate some of us in court. Can you believe that? None of us are charged with murder? They are the most immature people.
It's like a cult - and Erin was the leader.
The facts of the case, EP's own statements, and this sort of insight strengthen my suspicion that she has a personality disorder like vulnerable narcissism. Flying monkeys and everything! The fan club won't stick around long, she'll turn on them the moment they're useless to her.
These are the sorts of traits I'm talking about:
- defensive
- avoidant
- hypersensitive to others’ opinions
- vigilant for criticism
- neurotic
- negative about the past
- fatalistic
I believed she was guilty from day dot, but now that the verdict is in, it's galling how much effort went into protecting herself from the consequences of her own actions.
If it was just a terrible mistake, a typical person would be working with legal counsel to find a way to own up to these stupid, deadly actions and avoid the harshest penalties. But this is a woman who couldn't even pretend to do that.
She cannot seem to accept the idea that someone else suffered more than she did, or that she is the cause of her own problems. Not even if it means the rest of her life is in prison.
EP had no lawful justification for her actions. She intended to lure them there under false pretences to administer a meal laced with undetectable toxic mushrooms. She was fully aware what a "death cap" is, how to find them, how to hide them in meals and what the consequences could be. Her actions were conscious, deliberate and voluntary. She was directly responsible for three deaths.
