Yes you are right. It could very well be shock or sedatives prescribed by the doctor but I'll bet on shock. When my son died I was in shock for several weeks and could barely function and I cried very little, then after the shock passed I preferred to grieve in private. I had thoughtless people ask me how I could be so calm. It was very hurtful because I had no idea how I appeared to others, my self image was gone, I was just trying to go thru the motions of my previous life, knowing that my previous life was gone.
This girl may very well have been an accomplice to her parents murderer but the idea I am trying to get across is that a lack of emotion at a time like this does not necessarily indicate guilt.
