The Case of Drew Peterson

Drew Peterson is quite the character. Rising up the rank of the Bollingbrook Police Department, he was married 4 times. Two of his wives had mysterious ends. And so, with the media focussing on him, Drew began to lap it up and promote himself.

Տςհաҽҽժվ ᏖᎧᎴᎴ She’s not wrong, though. The domestic violence rate regarding cops is disgustingly high. Not to mention there have been plenty of cases where it’s pretty obvious an officer or friend/ family member of an officer has murdered someone (usually their spouse) and it’s then covered up by the police force. While this is not to do with the institutionalised racism that is rampant in the police, it does show you that they consider themselves ‘above the law’, are quick to resort to unnecessary violence and cover up for each other to a criminal degree. Check out the statistics for domestic violence, she’s not wrong.

Yeah, that one sticks out big time. We live in a small town about the same size as Bolingbrook and a local undercover detective for narcotics was caught taking numbers from drug dealers of those they dealed to, in exchange for the detectives silence who then turned around and sold the drugs for a profit. He and a business partner (also a cop) were caught and both sentenced to prison. The detective killed himself, a month, if that into his sentence. But Drew was merely "demoted"?

[@lazybuggg]

My ex did stuff like this. He was my first boyfriend and I was 18. He would pop into my work ( a retail store) and watch me work& he would get upset if ANY male coworkers spoke to or even looked at me. If he wasn’t there, he would ask me to send him pictures of the time clock to prove I was there. He tracked me from Facebook and knew how long it took me to get from work to his house. If I was even a few minutes late ( to get gas or coffee) he would accuse me of cheating on him. Eventually he wouldn’t let me wear makeup, certain underwear, even yoga pants weren’t allowed. After that and after he ruined my reputation and refused to let me talk to my friends and family is when he started beating me. I took pictures of the abuse when he went outside to smoke ( only time I was left alone with my phone) and I sent them to the only friend I had left ( she was a teenager at the time too, I was so brainwashed by him that I begged her to not tell the police) She saved them to her phone and this went on for months. She came to pick me up for class and she saw him push me down the stairs and throw a mirror at me. Once we left for “class” is when she drove me to the cops herself. Without her, I’d either still be with him, or I’d be dead. ( he always threatened to slit my throat and bury me under the basement. That no one would care) i feel very grateful to to get out alive. This is not normal behavior! I hope anyone reading this that is in a similar situation takes this as a sign to leave. Things will never get better. They will NEVER change. The violence will only get worse. Please please please leave. 💕

@Erin Tomasello, I hate that this was the case for you and so many others. I’ve heard variations of your story a dozens of times. People underestimate just how manipulative a significant other is, men or women, but when it’s paired with someone causing physical harm, it’s even harder to handle, especially if not as lucky as you having such a good friend in your corner reminding you not to take it. I’ve heard the craziest ways abusers wiggle out of trouble, only reinforcing their untouchable mindset. It’s sickening. So happy you’re safe because you very well *would* have been killed eventually. If you don’t get out, that’s exactly how the story ends unfortunately. I’ve been lucky to make it a point, after watching a friend brutalized, that NO matter how much I may love a man, the first time he lays a finger on me, it’s over. Happened in college, my boyfriend threw me into the lamp/wall, and also tried controlling my birthday by not “allowing” me to invite my friends. Nope, was not giving him further chances to do more of that, bye bye! It’s amazing to watch the reactions of these cowards if you stand up to them with back up. Threw his abusive controlling ass out with my two best friends standing behind me the very same day! Suddenly not such a tough guy. I hope you never tolerate the same again, because YOU deserve better and are worth so much more. I don’t need to know you at all to know this. XOXO

It's a cocktail of various things. Psychopaths are well known to be charming; They say whatever you want to hear, try to figure out what you need and "help you" with that, etc. They practice Love Bombing at the beginning. Become Mr. Charming and dial it up to 11. It can be very flattering to someone who doesn't know what is going on. All that attention. They do a lot of reconnaissance and the scary part is that it's a natural way for them to handle their prey. Always on the prowl. Tirelessly. Because they don't have a conscience. Empty inside. This means they have a lot of time and energy on their hands, that they use to ruin other people's lives. For fun. Always sussing someone out, always sticking their nose in others people's business, always scheming. They like easy prey. Young, elderly, naive, needy, helpless, low self-esteem kind of people. When the psychopath presents himself as their "savior", "protector" and the guy who "gets them" they jump in with both feet. Over time that "savior" turns into a tyrant. The sweet talking turns into threats. Violence. Then they mix it up, causing cognitive dissonance: Flowers, beatings, flowers, beatings, flowers, beatings. The prey becomes exhausted. Clinging to the memory of the long lost savior - that never existed. The home becomes a prison. Take away their money, push away friends and family. No support. No help. A lot of abusers are very busy having children asap with their prey. It's another lock to keep them in place. If and when the prey tries to get away... there will be hell to pay. This includes involving all of the people the psychopath has "recruited" over the years. All the other people that have been "saved" and "helped" - also known as Flying Monkeys. They are there to reinforce the brainwash and the prison walls. That the prey is a selfish asshole for leaving such a great guy. Even help get rid of the bodies, because flying monkeys are brainwashed and terrorized as well. None of this happens over night.
