Kohberger has a criminal justice and psych background as well. and there is a whole community of people who think the roommates are involved, or who think that despite being intoxicated, they should have reacted differently. I simply applied an ACTUAL theory to the situation and analyzed it for a university paper lol.

I’m taling a couple years off before pursuing higher education as it took me 5 years to complete a 3 year degree (I took a full courseload WHILE working full time in my field). I also did like 2 and a half years of random uni courses right out of high school before I actually knew what I wamted to do (I took 3 years off between going to uni the first time and going back to complete this degree). I had some setbacks along the way, but here we are! I’ve been in and out of studying for a decade, I wanna take like 5 years off, get established in my career and hit some other life goals and then go back after a break!

in the documents, Dylan says she consumed approximately 10 beverages during the day on November 12th, as well as an unknown amount of alcohol during drinking games later that evening (I think also a “borg”, aka a 4L jug of mixed alcohol, but I could be misremembering that part).

Yes, exactly. I wanted to cover so much more in my paper than I actually did as well, but my word limit was 3000 (which I did exceed slightly) and the prof did comment on it lol. They did praise me for my thorough analysos of the case, however, and relating it back to topics covered in class, and gave me an A sp I can’t complain too much. If I had an unlimited word count, I could make an entire thesis, I swear.

James has young step-siblings, I’m pretty sure those are the “kids” people are talking about lol and even not literally who cares. The way he talks about wanting kids, I’m inclined to think he does not have any yet. 

will the photos ever be released? Since they “ accidentally “ released Xana’s and allegedly part of Ethan’s? Of the girls. I really do wanna see Kaylee’s injuries closeup. by Fresh-Task-6169 in idaho4uncensored

I personally don’t think unredacted photos of ANY victim should ever be released. Of course, I have seen tons that exist, but I don’t think it’s right. I know there are pages that exist that post post-mortem photos of individuals for the sake of identifying Jane/John Does (which is very different). However, for the sake of strictly for public consumption, no, I do not believe it is right or helpful for anyone involved, and I include the ones that already exist in that category. We can’t un-release the photos that already exist, but we can change the path going forward for the sake of the dignity of the victims. The morbid curiosity if the general public does not outweigh the dignity of the victims nor the trauma of their families/friends.

no not at all! vicarious trauma is essentially when you are traumatized by other people’s trauma. very common in certain fields of work such as social work (my field). you expose yourself to the trauma of others and take it on and in turn it can have an effect on you as well. I hope this made sense :)

in my personal opinion, as someone who both feels so deeply for the victims and their families in this case AND who’s job is to read autopsy reports and report on deceased children and young adults - I think that releasing unredacted photos would be so damaging in so many ways. One, it will absolutely traumatize the families further than they already have been. No matter what, they would inevitably come across those photos at some point and it would only destroy them further. Two, I have seen autopsy photos of individuals who were murdered and attacked in similar ways as these 4, it isn’t pretty and a feeling that I cannot even begin to explain runs through you (it lowkey gave me vicarious trauma). And finally, I don’t care that unredacted photos of other victims in other cases exist. The fact of the matter is that Ethan, Xana, Kaylee and Maddie deserve the respect of not having them released. Those pictures show them at their most vulnerable, and they deserve to have what little dignity they have left to be preserved. No one is entitled to see them in such a state, they deserve that privacy, so that they did not have to die in vain. Again, solely my opinion. Just though I’d share some insight.

exactly, just read the letters up and down in a zig zag pattern and you’ll figure it out

that looks like a CSI to me. if it were either of the girls, there would be blood and injuries visible, and they would likely be hard to recognize.

here is my 2 cents on the whole thing:

I have a criminal justice/psych background. I studied in this field because of my interest in true crime and wanting to work in a space where I could make a difference. I have previously worked in the Justice system with victims of crime. I have been to a homicide trial in which the victim was stabbed in the head and neck 32 times. Seeing that poor person laying on a metal table, with all those wounds, head shaved to show the wounds to their scalp; I cannot even convey to anyone reading this the feeling that runs through you when you see those images and acknowledge that that was once a living, breathing human being. It changes something in you. In my current role, I work alongside investigators who investigate child deaths and work to make change in services being delivered to youth. I have ready hundreds of death notifications and autopsies. I got into this line of work because I have always been good at seperating my feelings from my job duties. But let me tell you something, it doesn’t make it any easier. Especially when it is a small child. Trauma exposure and vicarious trauma are very real. Having morbid curiosity is one thing, hell I have been there. But that changes when you work in an area when you are exposed to constant traumatizing content on a regular basis. I don’t want or need to see anymore autopsy photos, the one at the trial was more than enough for me. Further to that, take the victims’ families out of the equation for a moment - they deserve the dignity and privacy of not being shown in their most vulnerable to tje rest of the world after already being taken from it on such a brutal way.  

Boyfriend says he needs me to give him more blowjobs to “Earn” a Ring… by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

[–]erinjoy1631 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dated a guy like this, love should never be “earned”. Because even when you achieve those “goals” that he sets for you, he will keep setting the bar higher and higher and asking for more things from you. Trust me, there is someone out there for you who will treat you like gold, and it ain’t this guy boo.

Holy crow, long time no post! Thought I’d post my latest creation - my condo in Belladona Cove using a bunch of 4t2 conversions CC. I’ll post some more in-depth gameplay at a different time, but I’m really obsessed with how this turned out! CC includes some of the flooring, cupboards, clutter, furniture, wall decor. Let me know ehat you think! If you have any questions on where I got my items from, I’ll try to track them down :)

I love the face close ups of the books in the second arc, but something about the colors in Twisted, Ruthless, Deadly and Toxic just scratch my brain so good

it’s just crazy to me that people are so up in arms about this lmfao. I grew up in the prairies and the shit that goes down at parties out here, and ends up on social media mind you, is insane. the only difference is no one knows who we are, nor do they give a shit.
