You’d think a true crime addict would know what to do to be a little more discreet

After the teacher let her in, she attacked the woman, stabbing her more than 100 times - continuing the frenzied attack even after the victim had died.

I guess we'll never know!

I agree with you. Like violent videogames don't turn people into murderers too. Though indulging in it might've amplified the murder tendencies?

Maybe she wanted to get caught to have her own episode? It wouldn't be the first time something like that happened.

Aren't psycopaths often quite arrogant of others abilities?

From the sound of things, she wouldn't have gotten caught if she hadn't tried to dispose of the body. If she had just left after murdering the woman, it would have been much harder to solve the case.

That was probably why she did the things that would get her caught. It wouldn't be true crime if the criminal got away with it.

He's fucking HIS YOUNG HOT SECRETARY behind the mrs BACK with a scandalous entanglement. Mmm soon to be single wifey plots revenge by plunging a kitchen knife through mr. Infidelites cold dead heart.... Ohhhhh yes how will she get away with killing the man she once called LOVER?..... tonight at 11:00

You mean that kind of exploitation?

I agree. But I still was fascinated with how people that do interrogations for a big part of their life deal with that experience. I mean, I got super grumpy with all people while doing pager/phone duty as a sysadmin.

I can't imagine how I would feel about reality if I was dealing with people in those extremes.

I do watch true crime and I know what you mean, and I personally do struggle with whether it's even ethical to watch it. No matter how respectfully they approach it and no matter how good their intentions may or may not be, even if the wanted to raise awareness for unsolved cold cases just in case people watching may have information, it still doesn't change the reality that they are making a spectacle out of and directly profiting from someone else's tragedy without their consent or knowledge.

Then you have truly disgusting people in the true crime space like this: https://nypost.com/2023/07/12/youtuber-slammed-for-charging-to-see-autopsy-photos-of-boy-11/

And then you have CBC, Canada's national, State owned broadcasting service. They also have multiple true crime shows/podcasts, where they have reporters employed by the Canadian government interviewing police and investigators who are also employed by the Canadian government. There's nothing wrong with that on its own, BUT, it gets infuriating sometimes because there have been cases where the reporters get really suspicious that a certain person did it and has dug up a ton of seemingly new evidence that supports it, and the police wouldn't even comment on it, sound super apathetic when being told all this, and seem to have absolutely no intention to investigate further after the reporters brought their findings to them and gave them a bunch of (seemingly) new leads. Like if another government agency has already done half the work for you why would you not follow up? Is the goal of the government only to talk about horrific monsters that take the lives of their citizens and not to actually punish them and remove them from society? I suppose it's possible that the police already investigated that avenue and ruled it out and are just not telling the reporters (and by extension the public), but if that's the case why not just come out and say that so not only the suspected person's name is cleared and also let the public know that they are indeed on top of the investigation?

It's a different culture for sure.

Being alone in general is not a good idea with people you haven't established trust with.

Humans are just too fickle and prone to acting on urges without thinking about the consequences. It's getting worse as more people spend less time with eachother.

In Korea, or maybe other easter Asian countries, people photoshop the shit out of their CV Pictures.
