I saw an evidence picture of the backseat of her van. There was a child's car seat there. Just think she put one of Shad's legs somewhere in that van. I was sickened by that thinking about a child being in the van along with someone's body part. I can barely type this. There is a scale that they can measure psychopathy on. The highest number is 35 I think. Her "hero" Dahmer only scored a 23 I think so I don't know how accurate it is. Some people have scored higher though. Anyway I wonder what her score would be.

Yes exactly. I have the same struggles on top of ADHD and am a recovering poly-substance addict. But I can’t help but have empathy for everyone and everything, I can’t hurt anyone, I have trouble killing flies and spiders and bugs, and it makes my girlfriend mad because she has a huge phobia of bugs and spiders. I hate the sight and even the thought of any being struggling at all, unless said being is a killer/chomo/predator. I’ve never been able to understand people who enjoy making people feel uncomfortable or fear, or who like to hurt people or animals for any reason; even just for fun. If you love doing things like that, then you’ve got no soul, simply put.

I didn't have the teminology to describe it at the time of course, but now I know it's actually pretty common for the human brain to go somewhere far, far away when it can't process what's happening in the moment.

The police interview is the most neutral and accepting interview I've ever seen in my life. The policeman was amazing at just acknowledging her actions, no matter how gruesome like they were normal, which helped making her feel comfortable to continue discussing, as he did not seem appalled or scared or infuriated with her. It was absolutely amazing to watch the whole thing and examine his composure!

[@Lil_lioness]

This cop has probably dealt with some really messed up cases and criminals, so he knows how to communicate with them without berating them. Form a bond so that they will tell you everything. Pretty sure that Shad's case is one he wishes he could forget. Seen some really bad police interviews and investigations, but he handled this perfectly imo

Shad seems to have kind eyes in the photos of him. I’m glad that you took the time to talk about him at the end of the video and his family. He didn’t deserve any of the things that happened to him. He trusted the wrong person and was a victim of drug use. I feel so bad for he and his family. Also, like you mentioned Taylor’s daughter - oh goodness…. Not only will that poor innocent child have to grow up without her mother (which in some ways is probably better off) but her father is also in jail. On top of all that - one day she will find out what her mother did to be put in jail. I pray for healing and guidance for that little girl when that day comes. Also for Shad’s mother and family. I wish I could donate to them and I would if I was able.

Its a disorder where your hypersensitive to stimuli, have problems with comprehension, have ingest informationally differently from others. Nothing about having autism is violent (unless its self inflicted bec sometimes the flap flaps go too hard and i get that) I pisses me off that ppl see Autism as "being too stupid to understand". nah btch we are hyper intelligent we just cant process or explain it to others. Its so misunderstood. You sometimes dont know how strong you are and you apologies when you hurt someone. Its basic instinct. Autism is NOT an overly angry disorder unless to purposely provoke the person. I lived with my bf for 4 years and we never have a fight. Sure i get angry but we dont fight. We talk about the issues.

I think what she did was a combination of drugs,mental instability,and maliciousness. She is just an overall monster who shouldn't see the light of day. I find it hard to sympathize with her regardless of the mental health aspect because she has no remorse

[@RisingRevengeance]

This. I'm sure all the drugs and mental issues had some effect on it but it's still such an evil act that she cannot ever come back from it.

[@VioletJoy]

I tend to agree. It isn't one or the other. People want to simply say that she's a monster, but she has shown mental illness from a very young age and likely experienced abuse herself. All of that mixed with drugs is not a good combination. One thing is for sure - she should never be in the public again.

Hey mate- want to say how much I appreciate your humanising the persons victimised, ensuring they are front & centre in your videos. From titling videos with the victimised persons names; sensitive wording (you do this beautifully); and not hyperfocusing on the gore. It’s beautiful to see that the persons victimised are more than one line in the retelling of their own life and death; a stark contrast to how we typically see in ‘True’ Crime. You reveal persons like Shad as a 3D person, with nuance and depth. A person with passions and hobbies; who made mistakes and had conflicts; and who possessed a deep inner world far beyond _The Victim_ . In a time of utter depravity within True Crime you (and a select number of other creators) are showing how it _should_ and _can_ be done without reducing the success of the channel. Thank you especially for showing photos of Shad in his day to day life- I was disgusted with Court TV etc using his mug shot. Big love & appreciation to you mate from down under

There’s a lot people can blame on drugs but this isn’t one of them. She wasn’t acting out of paranoia or experiencing psychosis. It was definitely a case of the meth just that enabling her to be her true sociopathic self. I say that as someone with plenty of experience with that shit.

The 911 operator asking “could she be hallucinating” sounds like someone who never in their life did they imagine getting a call like that. Meanwhile, the interrogator sounded like he really wanted to talk about the BDSM but had to continuously remind himself that someone was killed.

[@cadavher]

The part where she talks about loving things so much she kills them. I wonder how many animals she killed. No normal person says that. There is "cute agression" but people who have that dont ever think about actually harming the animal/person they find cute. The way she worded it was like shes done it before, and more than once. They just skipped over that in her trial, in my arm chair opinion (lol), i truly think shes a psychopath like the psycholgist on her defense team stated.

[@kathduncan9618]

That's what I was thinking too. About animals or even children she could have harmed. She's a despicable pile of garbage who should never be free.

[@MsKassandraKotaku]

I was wondering if she was still ridiculously high during the interrogation (which makes sense with how long some drugs last) and was confusing cute aggression with actually killing. When people are really high they say some of the craziest things. I also wondered if some of her weird expressions later was lingering psychosis from the drugs. From what I understand (although I'm not very versed on drugs), meth in particular has the ability to cause long term psychosis. None of this is any sort of defense of her...but I think the hard core drug usage impacted a lot of what happened and what we saw in videos of her.

[@mermaid_at_heart213]

@@MsKassandraKotaku Agreed. Just because she was calm, that did not mean she wasn't still under the influence. Paired with her mental issues, I can totally see how she'd be calm recounting what she did. Like her husband mentioned, she did have bipolar disorder and possibly even postpartum depression. Both of those illnesses can sometimes in severe cases make people do unimaginable things. I'm not condoning it, but anyone who could do what she did is obviously mentally deranged.

The most messed up thing about this whole case is that she had a bond. Even if it was $2m (or even if it was $100m), all it would take is some rich psycho to bail her out, and she could have been free to walk around and potentially do this to someone else. The American justice system is fucked.

That's exactly what I thought.........this monster has a CHANCE to walk free, for how-many months or years before her trial? What WAS that judge THINKING? -- (Answer -- nothing whatsoever..)

[@mermaid_at_heart213]

I completely agree. For crimes of this nature, really anything that harms another human being in any severe way, the suspect should not have bail posted for any amount of money! Even with innocent until proven guilty, with this much evidence that it was almost 100% confirmed that the suspect was guilty, they should have no opportunity to step foot back into society to possibly hurt another person/people. I've seen far too many cases where violent, deranged people were granted bail, just to get out and harm/kill more people. That is not justifiable in any capacity. This justice system is absolutely broken.

[@mermaid_at_heart213]

@@JoeBob79569 OH, it absolutely is the judge's fault. That's my point, though. These judges set bail for people like this, allowing them to be let back into society and endangering the lives of other citizens. It shouldn't even be a choice for a judge to make a bad call in instances like this. With a confession of such violence and behavior like that exhibited, the law should clearly be no chance of any bail being set by any incompetent judge.

@@VRwarrior most things that help you sleep fall into one of two categories. Either it makes your dreams surreal and strange, or it stops you having any dreams. There's even a blood pressure medication that helps with PTSD nightmares. Prazosin (brand name Minipress) has been shown in low doses taken prior to bed to help with specifically nightmares induced by trauma (however it doesn't do much of anything for nightmares that are idiopathic). It's important to remember that often drugs have off-label uses. Trazodone was initially designed specifically for depression and anxiety, but not a single doctor worth their salt has prescribed it for this because later drug trials revealed it's way better for fixing sleep issues.
