But women blowing away multiples with a gun is rare as hen's teeth.

Yes - I had heard that, too. Never thought that much about it but I enjoy reading about crime/mystery and most perpetrators are men.... guess that is why I'm so taken with this event. I imagine when the trial begins we will hear all about her mental condition.

My question is.. how could she function and be this disturbed... It takes a lot to keep a household of 6 running smoothly, 2 working parents, plus the demands of university career AND developing this new research breakthrough..... all while harboring such a dark side!! Truly fascinating in a macabre way.

This just reported in another thread: A family source said Bishop, a mother of four children - the youngest a third-grade boy - was a far-left political extremist who was “obsessed” with President Obama to the point of being off-putting

Is anyone surprised? I am a bit surprised they reported it.... we'll see what the Main Stream Media does with this...

Yes...it IS fascinating, and your question is key. I am no expert in this field, but I believe the psychologists and psychiatrists would tell us that she is a sociopath which allows her no empathy at all for other people. She just does not care about anyone else's suffering...this trait is decoupled from her intelligence.

Ted Bundy was also a sociopath, but more typical of the male type in that he not only was indifferent to the pain of others, he actually enjoyed it. He was a sexual serial murderer, and Bishop is not...she is a mass murderer.
