Who Really Knows ??


Well, sure, I'll be the first to get things rolling. It would be too easy to voice a most certain opinion as to guilt or innocence. So, I'm not even going to go there ; everyone who has an opinion believes they can offer some unique insight and that their points are urgently valid and those the type of comments I expect are going to follow in this thread. My thoughts on this case are simply that no one knows. Maybe he abused her. Maybe he didn't. Maybe she's a manipulative narcissist and maybe she's truthful. Maybe Lorena's brutal act was justified but more likely, nothing that severe is justified. All in all, it makes for stimulating viewing! It's hard to find watchable material on Prime but 'Lorena' is an intriguing mini series worth seeing.

No matter what he did, her act was not justified. Especially in his sleep. Lol.

So what justified what he did?

reply

Nothing.

All I ever got from this story back then and still today is that it's perfectly OK to make fun, jest and "you go girl!" about a man having his penis sliced off, but NOBODY would ever act that way if the gender were reversed. I mean, could you ever imagine a talk show with men making fun of a woman who had her vagina butchered by her husband?

reply

Agreed. All the humor and sympathy was disturbing.
