      It seemed to be very toxic for both of them... the abuse was mutual... so my question is this... Had it been the other way around, and MK was killed... with the same exact evidence and no confession... and a self defense claim on his part... do you believe that he would have been found not guilty as well?? 🤔 I think he would be found guilty of first degree murder under the same exact circumstances... so because she is a woman, she is able to claim victim?? Unfortunately, our system is very flawed... I don't believe justice was served here

      I’m pretty sure that it was a debate whether it was murder, or self defense. Cause you have a right to defend yourself if someone if trying to hurt you. So even though she mostly did kill him, it’s not necessarily ridiculous because the ruling (unfortunately) was self defense I’m pretty sure. I hope this helps!

    Now this is just from my personal experience from being in a DV relationship. As a victim we know we can't fight back or anything in private. So in public it looks as if we're the mean one. But really we're just showing all the built up emotions. I also never spoke to anyone about it. But he constantly talked about me to try to make me look bad or like I deserved it. And I also have went looking for him to come home. They break down your soul and who you are as a person, you depend on them to live. Because they make you believe it.

      Yes.. when I was listening to this it hit home. I would react more in public because it is almost safer? And yes they know exactly how to trigger the response they want out of you so you look like you are unstable. And even though you want to leave if you’re trauma bonded then you feel like you’re dying without them. It’s a very hard situation for outside people to understand but psychologically your abuser is also the person who comforts you so it makes you feel like you need to be with them to survive. It is just a very sad situation for all of the families involved.

      I did not know that it was a normal part of the DV timeline of abuse to make the victim seem like the one abusing………….That’s where I’m at in the timeline now. 😢💔
      I have called back to back like that too and blown up texts….I even called his mom (asking for advice and wisdom…not to stalk the man. To be clear.) all of that because the last thing he said to me before he left, whispering under his breath…was something like: You’re daughter is f*+\# bc of you. I feel sorry for her with you as her mom.
      I would never, ever harm him or anyone physically. I’m getting out. I am just thinking, why was he so vocal about her hitting him or being crazy? I AM a victim. It’s humiliating to tell others, it’s hard, it’s not like I vent and complain openly that he’s this psycho. I say to everyone he’s going through some hard stuff, but he’s a good person. He just needs help.
      No ONE, no one should be harmed physically. And it’s heart breaking the young man’s life was stolen from him. Again - it is NOT ok to harm anyone, if there was abuse - he did NOT deserve this. If this wasn’t abuse - he did NOT deserve this. So it’s irrelevant really. Just hurts the family overall. So sorry for the young man @ his family. 🤍

      Agreed. My ex was extremely manipulative and a total narcissist. He had everyone convinced I was horrible and abusive to him "behind closed doors" and he would push me and push me and any reactive abuse I had in public he would be like "SEE SHE'S CRAZY?" And then when we got home he'd verbally and mentally assault me, throw things at me or just past me, punch holes in walls, hurt himself to "not hurt me" and threaten me physically. I got out before it escalated any further. I do not think it was right for her to kill him, but it may have truly been in self-defense. It's definitely not something people outside of DV can understand. Your abuser will 100% turn the world against you so no one will ever believe you and paint you as the villain so you are completely ostracized and alone without them. Like forced co-dependency.

It was weird because I knew we had our problems, but I slowly started to see his friends and relatives treat me very coldly. It wasn’t until I became close with one of his friends that I got told what was being said about me. When I confronted him about it, (around the beginning of Covid), he went to work and took my set of keys and my phone so I couldn’t leave. The doors on our unit locked automatically after they close so he did this knowing that I’d have no way to get back to my belongings or my pets if I chose to leave and no transportation or way to call a friend.
      It was bizarre because for months he pretended I was stalking him, pressuring him to stay with me or being some other shade of unreasonable when in reality I desperately wanted to return to my old apartment complex and live peacefully but feared he would hurt my pets or destroy my belongings in the transition.

      She was at risk or getting beat or something the cops would know she would’ve said that first on the 911 call too.
      I just got further in a video more motive he was gonna leave her ass as he should tbh
      And there’s proof she’s pulled a gun on him before just for a fight this time it just so happened that she killed him. Ik you can’t be re trialed for the same crime buttt shiiitt she needs to be cause she probably gonna do it again .

    The text messages he sent to her are terrifying and some of the people in the comments are sympathizing too much with him. He was a dirt bag. She was also terrible and definitely shouldn’t have killed him but good lord.

      I agree, those messages are incredibly disturbuing, and are not the same as "reacting out of anger/hurt." It's just as disgusting as when the girl said "he pushed her to overreact". They are both abusive.

      @@lf9341 they don’t just bring screenshots in the courtroom and believe it’s real evidence. they check with the cell towers, the times, the dates, the locations, etc. they would’ve been able to tell if the texts were sent from her and if they had been deleted or not. They do a forensic analysis on all technology involved in cases where it’s present, they even brought up her search history when she babysat for someone. I’m seeing your comment under everyone else’s and I’m just letting you know it doesn’t work like that. just how they were able to tell the messages were sent from that “crazy lady” in that case you’re talking about and in so many other cases, they would’ve been able to tell in this case as well. those messages dated back weeks and months from him, they were obviously real. so real that many of the texts couldn’t be released, both of them are guilty for being toxic and abusive, he shouldn’t have died of course, she should’ve let him go and be with his friends. it’s a tough case honestly.

    I’ve been in an abusive marriage with a narcissist that constantly gaslighted me and broke me down but came off as the nicest man in the world. It cause a toxic co-dependency with the abuser, cant stand the abuse but can’t be without the abuser. Also, victims of violent sexual acts often use graphic pornography and fantasies to help dissociate the actual events they suffered.

      I just typed the same thing. So glad someone else pointed this out. I get so sick of hearing stories everywhere claiming a gun "accidentally went off"
      My husband is a marine vertan, my grandpa is an army veteran...both with multiple tours of duty. My grandfather shot a hole in his floor while cleaning, and he knows its bc he made a mistake. He didnt treat the gun like it was loaded and pulled the trigger before checking. If you do 3 simple things then a gun CAN NOT "accidentally discharge"
      1.treat all weapons as if they were loaded
      2.keep your finger off the trigger(unless you ready to shoot)
      3.never point a gun at anything you aren't willing to shoot.

    • @smwilliams83

      Exactly!! And for someone who is suppose to know basic gun safety, she should have been well aware that the gun was loaded and you don’t throw a gun at someone.
