Living with a sociopath psycho can turn a sane person into a basket case who throws hairspray and jumps and hollers in the street.
End of story.
I think this is a two way street.
Pickie...it would be awesome if it was as simple as you explain it, but the fact is there is not enough information to simply state that DS was just a sociopathic psycho who turned a sane person into a basket case who throws hairspray and jumps and hollers in the street...if there is anything we've learned from this case, it's that DS and VS did not have a simple relationship.
My hunch is that she was just as "complex" as he was. Yes, she is the victim. But that doesn't excuse her prior behavior, nor does it mean that it didn't contribute to the final outcome. If that's what happened, it's inexcusable on DS's part, but I believe that each of them came with their own set of quirks and abnormalities and they likely fed off of each other's "issues".
DS was 29 years old and a decorated former marine sniper with no criminal record, that I've heard about. No assault charges, no DV charges, no history of bar fights etc.
His first crime is to murder his wife, and he does so after she basically leaves him high and dry, takes the kids, takes all of their money, and then when she gets back to Michigan, tells LE he's molesting his own child. I think he snapped and finally said enough is enough...I'm done doing this...
If there was a list of ways to make your husband turn violent, I'd guess the scenario she played out in February is probably pretty high on the list...
I just hope that wherever these 2 young girls end up, that they are in a much more stable and loving environment than what they had to endure the first few years of their lives...
MOO
