I'd say 90% of the time that's a super common sense, hard & fast rule- but... Especially since it's poor/ low income ppl that get arrested most often, & are those most likely to have to post bail when they do.. there's some possible exceptions. For instance, an abusive partner may need to the cops called on them if they're outta control, & it's better they stay in jail since they're dangerous- But sadly, Many women (& sometimes men too) are forced to stay physically abusive relationships to keep themselves from homelessness- especially if they're experiencing health issues/ disabled, battling addiction, or have kids w/ health issues, etc. Someone (again, most often women but men too) may need to call 911 in a scary moment to protect themselves, but also be unable to leave. Not everyone has family or good friends they can count on to help in such a situation- if they did , they probably wouldn't stay with an abuser to begin with. They may decide to end the relationship after that,&make a plan to leave, but most ppl in the U.S. have only a few hundred $$ to spare; realistically many need time to save, or contact a DV shelter for assistance. They'd likely plan not to leave right away, afraid their abuser will come for them when once theyre out of jail- maybe if they spnt bail their partner out, a friend or rheir parent will, then they're angry & blame their victim. The victim may know that when an abused partner tries to leave the relationship is when they're most likely to be killed by their abuser. It may be safer to wait for a bed to become available at a DV shelter- which could be weeks or months. Or to save $ to be able to get farther away when they do leave. Most abusers will call their victims to bail them out- & the victim knows what may happen if the abuser is left in jail, getting more angry... or they may not be able to make rent w/ out the partner's help, & so needs to make sure the abuser gets out to be able to stay employed- especially if she will be filing for child support/ alimony. Lots of factors that could make getting someone you had to call the police on to save your self from harm or even possible death, but 80% of women forced to live on the street when homeless get raped. Stats for co-ed shelters are almost as bad. Often ppl that are especially vulnerable- either economically, emotionally, mentally, physically, etc, like women. or men in marginalized groups, can have no good options & figure it's safer to deal- at least temporarily- or until they can escape safely- w/ the Devil they know.

Natalie adopts her deceased brother's ten-year-old son in 2000. Despite being a biological relation and a twenty-two age difference, Gerald demands that the relationship between him and his adoptive mother ( biological aunt /father's sister ) be something "more." Inspite of Gerald's demonstrative criminal behavior, Natalie still grants him access to her inner sanctum. In that "granted access," she is beaten, raped and murdered. Shortly afterward, Gerald disposes his and her bloody clothes in a local dumpster, and her lifeless corpse in the woods three miles away!? If ever there was a case that called out for a sentence of death, this is it! But no. Something has gone very wrong with our criminal justice system long ago.

It's always horrible and disgusting when entitled men rape and kill women they have unrequited crushes on. The only thing that makes this case particularly heinous is the extra violation of trust. Natalie would have been cautious of a co-worker or neighbor who'd expressed such sentiments, and she definitely wouldn't have allowed them into her home, and then gone to sleep with them there. And she certainly wouldn't have dropped the criminal charges for theft for them.

I've had a troubled life that I've always fought to overcome. I've improved myself through hard work and self reflection. Through the years I've had a number of friends who also came from troubled families. My biggest mistake has been that I've believed that these people also truly want to get better. I put up with a lot of disappointment and lack of concern from these friends. I've found that my fear of loneliness blinded me to their persistent negativity and lack of concern for me. The hardest lesson is that everyone, even the worst people, have some good in them. That still doesn't make them good people or good to be around.

He wrote the Human Magnet Syndrome, that explains the dynamics between the co-dependent vs narcissist. The therapy he recommends is based upon training the co-dependent, to self-focus their kindness as a way of disengaging from repetition compulsion, where there is a tendency to attract predatory personalities. Unfortunately narcopaths choose easy targets and victims being kind, is attractive to their predatory nature.

@@Linda72. oh, believe me theres ethical issues with being a prosecutor. The uncomfortable truth is, the world would be a very scary place without DEFENSE ATTORNEYS. Prosecutors, cops, etc they dont actually do what they do for the reasons you think. And prosecutors dont exist in this moral shield like people want to believe. Défense lawyers are not actually trying to get guilty people off. They protect people, all people, from having their rights violated. Prosecutors and juries, courts, convict innocent people everyday, all the time on good/strong evidence AND on bad/weak evidence. Our legal system was created to protect the accused because the true tyranny is a legal system where an accused person cant actually defend themselves. Our system is not perfect but it is the fairest system when compared to every other legal system. It is the ONLY legal system that recognizes the importance of doing everything to protect innocent people from being convicted. When ben Franklin said "its better 12 guilty men go free then one innocent person be hanged ", that is literally the founding principle of the American legal system. Legal justice does not mean what people think it does. And the rules are as they are to ensure EVERYONE can defend and explain themselves. This system has these rules, and its unique. No other legal system is innocent until proven guilty, the burden is on the prosecution to prove guilt. Every other system à defendant must prove innocence without the power, money, resources as the government. Prosecutors dont actually pursue justice for victims and their families. Every crime is considered a crime against society as a whole. Theres so much more to this but I wont keep going. Ill end with that its supposed to be difficult to convict people criminally. But its not that difficult in this country because of feelings like yours. Actual guilt and legal guilt are NOT the same thing. And lawyers arz taught this in law school. Its why lawyers always get disillusioned with the law after law school or after a couple years of practice. Prosecutors play up the gaurdians and fighters for justice because it serves them. But both sides actually really do that. The reason most lawyers can defend anyone accused of the worst crimes? Because they arent trying to get them off. They make sure that a persons right are not violated, that prosecutors and cops (the government by the way) follows the rules and prosecute people the right way. That if a person is convicted its beyond a reasonable doubt. Its very serious on both sides, but never underestimate how much is acting and à show and lawyers trying to charm and persuade with their intellect and charisma. Juries are not lawyers or educated on the law and atent actually supposed to and are not expected to make decisions based on law (though défense lawyers are forbidden to remind juries about this. To ensure that juries atleast use more reason than emotion but juries are NOT supposed to remove all emotion, just balance it with reason, while judges arent supposed to consider emotion at all). Also, the last thing, people would benefit from putting themselves in the accused persons shoes, as well as the victims. Every individual has just as much à chance at being accused of a crime as they are being a victim of crime. And even if someone is guilty, humans are capable of having compassion for the actor of a bad act, without taking any compassion away from the individual hurt by the act. Its another uncomfortable truth that human nature and psychology are very complex things and limiting anyone as "all bad" or "all good" is a simple thing. And just as every human has amazing potential to do good things, reason dictates that it also has to go the other way, and humans are capable of the worst in humanity and a lot of factors and TIME go into what every one of us is capable of. You know, if you read books by holocaust survivors, you would find that all of them, discovered very dark things about themselves after events beyond their control set up the circumstances that allowed them to discover it. There is a dark side to human nature and it lives in every one of us (im not saying that that doesn't mean there shouldn't be consequences or punishment). Anyway, sorry for the novel. Thanks for hearing me out if you read this far. I'm a law student, thr daughter of a lawyer, and my best friend is a deputy district attorney.

He already violated her trust when he stole from her. Unfortunately some of us are not taught boundaries. When someone steals from you, you have to make them earn your trust back not just hand it back freely. I mean I honestly think when someone steals from you, they should probably be removed from your life, but I understand why she would have a hard time completely giving up on her nephew. I can't believe how many people in this world still think having boundaries is being too much or being a bad person when they are the natural dynamic of relationships and how we protect ourselves emotionally. And unfortunately in this case physically. No one who steals both valuable and sentimental things from you should have access to your bedroom.

You know, it bothers me when a criminal defense includes a person's troubled childhood. I realize that growing up in a broken and abusive home could make a person feel hopeless. It could also make a person think "I deserve better" and go on to live a productive life. How do you defend a person that grew up in a loving two-parent home, never did without basic needs, was fully loved by both parents and brothers, did well in school; but grew up to be a total loser? Stole from their parents, stole from their brothers, stole from their niece and nephew, stole from their grand-niece's birthday, physically abused their mother, hasn't worked in 30 years, been arrested more times than one could count; and at 56 years old shows no signs of changing. The only thing they haven't done is kill someone. If I saw Dr Grande one day make a video about her murdering someone, I wouldn't be shocked. I am talking about my sister. None of what I listed above is an exaggeration. We grew up in a very privileged home. I don't mean privileged as in money, my Dad was merely a laborer at a concrete plant. But my folks devoted their lives to taking care of us kids. I can't think of any part of our childhood that was bad. My brother and I have done well as a result. But I don't know what the heck happened with our sister. You would almost think she grew up in the Manson family. So when I hear or read that a person's behavior is a result of a bad childhood, I think it's hogwash. People from a good childhood can turn out just as diabolical.

My grandmother lived to be 94 and she always said “Honey if you can’t have children, don’t adopt”. I know that’s sad but I truly believe some have traits in their DNA to commit crimes.

@@bbe3034 Great advise and honestly it's true. Too many kids that are up for adoption are completely messed up ( not saying it's their fault most of the times) and some of them won't ever recover even if they receive therapy for life. Nikolas Cruz is one of those examples. He was a complete mess since he was born due to his mother's alcohol and drug's use during the pregnancy and he did receive therapy since he was a kid and even with all of the resources that were dedicated to help him with his mental health he still ended up being a piece of shit that did terrible things. So yeah, adoptions are very risky. I will never understand why people would go through something as awful as that voluntarily. If their parents/family didn't want to take care of those kids is most likely because of a good reason.

Adoption can cause this. From Mayo Clinic Overview Reactive attachment disorder is a rare but serious condition in which an infant or young child doesn't establish healthy attachments with parents or caregivers. Reactive attachment disorder may develop if the child's basic needs for comfort, affection and nurturing aren't met and loving, caring, stable attachments with others are not established.

I have heard first hand of adoptive parents who were assaulted by their adopted child. Can you review the data available on violent crimes against adoptive parents? A friend states that 50% of children in inpatient psychiatric care, are children who were adopted.What are the statistics for psychiatric hospitalizations due to serious behaviors of adoptive children? Do adoption agencies "gaslight" couples who long to have a family, about how high risk it is ( risking your life...) to adopt a child of unknown background?
