Here's a perfect example of "we don't all act the same emotionally" Despite all the horrors she went through, the physical and mental anguish, and the future hardships she's going to have, she was distraught but wasn't hysterical; she calmly explained what went down and she was laser focused.

So sad. Her story is Really authentic. A friend of mine got shot at a party and ran a half mile before he realized it. His adrenaline took over and he felt nothing. He ended up losing his spleen and survived. Thank God. Just so people know, not everybody realizes the moment they are shot. Adrenaline is a hell of a drug that helps us survive. I hope this sweet girl is okay.

[@Jenseduca]

Yeah, its true. I was stabbed once and I didn't realise that for an hour or so. I went home and got on a chair as usual and It's only when I felt something wet and sticky underneath and realised that its not some spilled water Im sitting on but my own blood that's when the pain swept over me. I find it fascinating how our brain can play tricks on us that seems to be impossible when you think about it, like how can you miss than you got stubbed? I hit a toe and immideately I scream and jump like a monkey and yet I got few inches of steel in my body and felt nothing at all. Weird.

The level of detail and insight she has is really impressive for a regular citizen (vs a cop). Not many people would note and remember little details like how Cortez parked his car or think to mention nearby places that could have CCTV for them to check. She's clearly a smart woman. Your insight about her fiance being murdered (over *$200*) also rendering her homeless really made my heart go out to her, I hope her and Pork Chop are doing better.

[@TimApple.]

No doubt. Talks with the sound of a timid 12 year old carrying the intelligence that dances circles around these investigators in some respects. Can't discount people, and never put Baby in the corner.

[@catfood233]

Cops are not trained the way you believe they are. Most cases police officers are not trained in anyway for speaking to people or how to handle touch situations. Cops are poorly trained and many of them end up being murderers. The woman has insight because she already naturally does. She most likely handles herself well outside in a very well way. She’s most likely well educated and is able to speak well to the police. Before answering questions she asks questions for her understanding. She’s not only listening she’s active listening. Any single person can act this way and has nothing to do with training more to do with mentality and fight or flight in the mind. We give police too much credit when in reality they are the largest paid gang in the USA

[@MrDeelightful]

Even without the rest of the trauma she just went through, fighting through the haze you end up dealing with on painkillers to give useful information on something this important is hard enough. The emotion in her voice is heartbreaking. I hope her and Pork Chop are doing better now.

[@OnlyJalenPhd]

That’s probably it! When she first started speaking, I thought she was 18-19 years old, when she said 36, my jaw dropped! But I think you nailed it, she sounds very much like someone who’s taken pain pills, that doesn’t take pain pills. Poor girl.

Poor girl, I wish I could take the hell she’s going to go through for the next couple weeks/months/years.

[@tomwi_since2015]

I think that the behavior you describe as "like a child" is in large part due to the painkillers she was given. She sits there a few hours after being shot in the leg with no apparent pain. That means there's a lot of painkillers involved. also her voice and behavior is like 3-4 hours after waking up from an anesthetic. I hope she gets better soon. both mentally and physically. and of course her dog too

That is why so many military vets suffering from severe PTSD are given a companion dog. Data shows for some reason their suicide rates and drug dependency is significantly lower.. So yes her dog will be important to her recovery.

[@chasingthefish9042]

@River Run but not to the extent people are more upset the dog got shot over the fiancé who lost his life. Its fucken horse shit. Show how absolutely low our current understanding of morals is. I never said dogs don't help with traumatic healing. I have my own service dog who is normally never more then 30 feet away from me. Bring her everywhere with me. I as a vet understand why I personally like having her around. She's a tool in which I find a deep connection and love with. She watches my back. However I get far more in every way with my wife. She isn't a tool she's my life partner. There's a vast difference between the two.

My ex friend got into a heated argument with a random stranger, my friend pulled out his 45 and shot and killed the dude. He is serving 37 years in prison for murder. If you have an anger problem you shouldn’t have guns, just my opinion.

@HanFace89 I have a firm grasp of the importance of human life. I also have a firm grasp on firearm safety and firearm training. Just because I get angry doesn't mean I have to lose my discipline and act irrationally. I also have forethought and reason. My firearms are for self-defense of my family and those around me. In addition to that, my firearms are a tool for putting food on my kids' table. We haven't eaten beef in years because of them. At no point will there be a time when I use my tools in a negative way. People like you seem to think all people are a danger with firearms yet are perfectly comfortable with the government owning guns.

[@brimstonethewolf2020]

@@chasingthefish9042 when did I say all people who own firearms shouldn’t have them? I support the right to bare arms, I have firearms myself. What I’m saying is there are people who should not have a firearm, but do. Folks with anger issues have more of a chance to lose their temper and use their weapons.

I'm so sick of there not being harsher laws regarding the killing or abuse of animals. They deserve the same justice as humans do.

[@kindtimetraveler]

I gotta say…the comments on this channel have really surprised me. I watched this exact interrogation on a different channel recently & so many of the comments were unnecessarily mean-spirited & critical of this poor woman. Most of them made fun of her voice & her unique way of speaking; others called her “slow” or implied that she was purposely trying to sound like a child for some nefarious or manipulative reason. Totally lacking any empathy or compassion, despite the traumatic experience & horrific loss she’d just been through. On the other hand, the majority of the comments here are very different…refreshingly kind & compassionate. Says a lot about the kind of subscribers this channel has versus others.

[@sailorofthesoul1945]

It has hardly anything to do with subscriber demographics. This is the internet. Anything and anyone is on here.

[@stephaniepower9437]

This woman is actually pretty smart. She picks up on a lot of stuff I’m not trying to be mean, but she does act like a child. I think it might be from the shock but it’s crazy because she’s acting like a child but he’s actually so witty and smart and picked up on a lot of stuff.

She would have been on quite a few painkillers because of her leg. That might have influenced her demeanor.

Is that her real adult voice? Or is she just completely traumatized?

I was traumatized and being interviewed by police officers at age 31, and I'm betting this is her traumatized voice.

Some commenters need to go back and listen to what she says., not the voice she says it in. After a traumatic event, she's able to give helpful, compelling information, empathy for others, and remains as graceful under fire as anyone w/a more "appropriate" tonal range. Every bit of her body language speaks volumes. The police have seen enough to see through an act. After the interview, the officers treat her w/all due respect because this woman's ordeal is about as real as it gets.
