An ex-sister-in-law had run up about $115,000 in credit card debt. She kept the debt secret from my brother and would get new cards and transferred the debt numerous times. She rented a PO Box so that the statements never came to the house. The only good thing was that except for her last fling of about $6aK, all the debt was in her name alone and the credit card companies couldn’t come after my brother. The best we can figure is that she probably had debt she hid when they were married and then kept building it for the 6 years they were married.

Yes there is! It's called the "Don't Go out with Fuckwits Minnesota Protocol". The problem here isn't detecting bad people. The problem is knowing someone is bad and going out with them anyway. In any case, the judge was correct: Both women were idiots who didn't care enough about their daughter to do the right thing. She could have spent money on a lawyer and finding a new house; instead she went on a Caribbean cruise with her abuser. Nuff said.

Good morning Dr Grande, once again an excellent analysis of a crime. Love the Serial killer joke.
As far as the paint that applies pink, and dries white, within one hour: that would depend on the moisture, material, humidity, and temperature. It’s possible that if the paint were poured onto a liquid (blood), or mixed with the liquid (water, cleaning chemicals), it could take several hours to dry, possibly even much longer. Also, if you applied moisture to the Drying paint, it may return to pink, because it’s been remoisturized. Thus, go from white back to pink, if it were not already entirely dry. Obviously, I have no idea how pouring such paint onto cloth or clothing or wet surfaces, such as a clothed body, and various amounts of blood, would effect the properties of the paint that is supposed to go from pink to white. But it is not reasonable to estimate the time of estimated “dry time” of one hour as relevant to a bloody body, or wet / moist surface. Paint that is supposed to turn from pink to white within approximately one hour, and using that presence or absence of pink color as some sort of a measurement of time, is completely obliterated by the fact that it’s poured onto a wet / moist surface, and also a cloth surface, moist with blood, water, cleaning supplies. The one hour could be utterly irrelevant. In fact, maybe when she returned and saw the paint was still pink she panicked, expecting it should have turned white, dried, but it was still wet? I can see how the jury is not convinced. The one hour issue itself is obviously error ridden.
Love your sense of humor
Afternoon Dr. G, love the way you entwine an analytical analysis of an awful tragedy with subtle humor sprinkled around: “…the Springfield painter struck again, this time they went semi-gloss,” as a local paper purported. Thank you for your keen synopsis of criminal misfortune. And that soothing cadence of reason.
Great analysis Dr.Grande. What a horrible way for a child to be raised. I hope that little girl gets a loving home.
I think that codependency seems to have been the root cause that triggered all of their problems. The couple also seems to have had problems with enmeshment and lack of boundaries and self-discipline - as is evidenced by how much debt they accumulated.

I am wondering how theses two were able to adopt a child so soon after their marriage. Most couples wait for years and come under great scrutiny when adopting through an agency. Possible this adoption was through a private arrangement that short-cut that process. If this ill-advised adoption had not happened the murder would probably not have taken place. They would have simply divorced.

Partner violence in lesbian (and gay) relationships recently has been identified as an important social problem. Partner or domestic violence among lesbians has been defined as including physical, sexual and psychological abuse, although researchers have most often studied physical violence. How common is lesbian partner violence? About 17-45% of lesbians report having been the victim of a least one act of physical violence perpetrated by a lesbian partner (1,5,6,13). Types of physical abuse named by more than 10% of participants in one study included: Disrupting other�s eating or sleeping habits Pushing or shoving, driving recklessly to punish, and slapping, kicking, hitting, or biting (11). Sexual abuse by a woman partner has been reported by up to 50% of lesbians (12). Psychological abuse has been reported as occurring at least one time by 24% to 90% of lesbians (1,5,6,11,14).
