It’s also strange the “victim” has been posting images of herself smiling on Facebook!
She is oddly detached.
I don’t think text messages can be retrieved. Email can.
Maybe the police are waiting until she reveals her complicity.
Just what I was about to say. Complete w/ a manicure.
From the Yahoo article:
Nora Baladerian, a Los Angeles psychologist who headed trauma teams in the aftermath of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, said Anderson's choice of social media was another example of how her generation turns to the Internet to share deeply personal experiences with strangers. I think what's she's doing is connecting, and that's a good thing," Baladerian said.
A slightly different take:
Lawrence Calhoun, a psychology professor at University of North Carolina at Charlotte, said people react to trauma in widely different ways and warned against deeming any response misguided.
Still, the most important messages of support will come from family and friends, he said. One potential pitfall of turning to the Internet is that strangers may post unhelpful, even harmful, remarks.
Weird, just weird. I can't imagine putting yourself out there like that to strangers. But, no doubt, she'll be ready for interviews with the TV news shows.
(Yes, trauma survivors do handle grief in different ways. One of the wives that lost her husband in the Yarnell Hill fire in Arizona has been all over the airwaves starting that next morning and more recently as an advocate for more benefits for the firefighter's families. Most of the others wanted privacy to grieve with close family and friends.)
