She lived through some of the toughest and most wonderful times. She was a living legend and living history. She was so important to our society as a living piece of history.

Maybe. ...or maybe it IS the other kid. ...or maybe it's BOTH kids.

Sometimes I was the bad influence on my friend. Sometimes my friends were a bad influence on me. Sometimes my friends and I were getting in trouble together because we were all "bad". (which was the case most of the time) Not all parents are in denial just because this one particular mom is. ...and when it does happen, it's really not that surprising.

What this guy did is absolutely disgusting, and there's no excuse for it. But I can't help but feel some kind of empathy for someone who doesn't feel the way the rest of us would feel about this kind of thing. It's just a fucking tragedy... Like it's pathetic to watch him sit there crying and squirming because he knows he got caught and he fucked up his life. It's also interesting that he seemed to genuinely find it hard to admit to doing the wrong thing in front of his mum, and didn't seem to want to disappoint them even though he has issues with caring about people. I don't know, it's so bizarre and grotesque.

[@felecitykat1136]

It’s called narcissism. He doesn’t care about people but he cares how they perceive him. They spend their whole lives orchestrating a personality that attracts people to care and not see them for who they are. So no, he doesn’t care even a little. He’s upset peoples perception of him is negative forever and he got caught for his crimes.

[@bradenharris8718]

⁠​⁠@@AndyDrake-FOOKYT He won’t be released after 25 years. Is has absolutely nothing to do with faith in the system but because he was not ONLY just sentenced “to life with a possibility of parole after 25”, he was conhvicted of two other charges, one of which he was sentenced to 60 years for, he has to serve the eternity of that sentence plus the 40 years on his conviction. He was not given the possibility of parole in either one of his other sentences. So, even if he was the best, most well behaved, angel of an inmate, hne’s still not making that 25 year parole date. And so that leaves us with him being 18 when sentenced so, 78 years old when he finally finishes his mandatory sentence. So sure, maybe he’ll win parole then. Although that 16 year old will be long gone and in his place, you have frail, unhealthy geriatrics living in a high stress environment which is where the average age of long term inmates is usually 63-65 years. I wouldn’t worry myself. He’s not getting out anytime soon, probably never. The possibility of parole is JUST that only a possibility and just helps keep long term inmates serving life in line since you have to have a near spotless record to get it. Everything goes together.

"I' ve ruined MY life" after ruining the life of the victim, the victim's family and their own family.

[@bradenharris8718]

Why is this so surprising to anyone? His journal entries and admissions clearly show that he lacks empathy and compassion for others. Self-preservation, such as being upset and worried about ruining his own life, isn’t uncommon, even in people who are sociopaths, psychopaths (which are two different things, despite being used interchangeably), narcissists, or have personality disorders. They don’t feel emotions for others but will feel sorry for themselves and do anything to save themselves. They also care about how they’re perceived by others. For example, Gavin mentions his family being embarrassed and humiliated, which is why he doesn’t want to admit to the acts of sexual assault. I don’t understand why people are upset or stunned that he doesn't know about his victim when he clearly states in his journals that he doesn’t care about his victims but doesn’t want to be in prison forever. Instead of being insulted at how he doesn’t feel bad he committed bad and asking why it happened, ask how it happened. This is much more complex than simply being "born that way," which we know isn't true in this case. It's also harder for children with these tendencies, thoughts, and disorders to hide them. He didn’t show any signs of sociopathic behavior before puberty, and there’s a reason it started after puberty. It wasn't because he was born that way; it was due to his psyche being warped by external influences. And I could get into them but unless it’s complex and complicated so unless people are actually interested in the pathology of perpetrators such as Gavin and not just pulling the “oh no, he’s so evil and etc and I’m so disturbed and blah blah blah” but never want to actually explore how cases like this happened.
