    She sounds like a crazy person. Anyone who posts inspirational quotes about yoga is mentally unstable.

      I realize that the blurriness makes the picture look a lot more questionable than it really is.

    They have to be holding on to some evidence because I dont think “facebook posts inconsistent with normal greiving” is admissible in court.

    Where my lawyer Jezzies at?!

      That should be admissible in court. It gets past the hearsay objection because it’s not being admitted to show that she did actually go to an animal sanctuary but what her state of mind was.

      That’s of course not enough for a murder conviction, but I assume they have other evidence.

      I second lunchcoma. There’s no reason it wouldn’t be admissible, along with hopefully a ton of other evidence that could actually convict her.

    i live nearby. Apparently they were searching near her/their? Apartment last night with helicopters and people on land. Also, I’m trying to find the article, but her journal said that she wanted threesomes and rough sex, and she wanted to kill him because he didn’t want to do it. Sounds a bit extreme to me though, more like a “OMG, he doesn’t want to do this and I could kill him!” Kind of thing. I can’t wait until more details come out.

      The opposite! HE was pressuring her for threesomes and rough sex, and she said she wished he was dead!

      From your linked story, looks like the opposite - he wanted the rough sex and threesomes, and she did not.

      In a follow-up interview from the Orange County Jail, Graswald told News 12 that she was arrested after police found her diary. In it, she said she wrote about Viafore’s preference for rough sex and about him pressuring her to take part in threesomes. She wrote that sometimes she wished he was dead. But, she told the station that she wrote down those thoughts during tumultuous times and that she never actually planned to kill him.

    When did they make inappropriate emotional response illegal? The kayaking at 7:30pm without a life vest seems odd, but not indicative of anything.

      I do it up at my family’s lake house without a life jacket. Granted, it is a pretty small lake without heavy traffic, and I carry a life jacket with me, just not on me. I'd never do it on a river though- vest or no vest.

    ...photos of her cat, cheery posts about visiting an animal sanctuary, inspirational quotes about yoga, pictures of her parrot, and a jaunty new profile photo...

    Please tell me there was more to go on than posts that were deemed inconsistent with grieving spouse status? Cause all that shit (while it’s typically annoying Facebook behavior) does not add up to “murder” to me.

      Yeah, they’re saying she’s said inconsistent and incriminating things in interviews, and they also have her diary in which she said more than once that she wished he was dead.

      I don’t think Facebook had much to do her being charged, if anything at all. That’s just something the media are reporting on because they think it looks juicy.

      Internet opinion should totally count for at least 10% of any judicial ruling. Let’s make this happen.

    So someone who used to work with my partner ended up in jail for killing his second wife. His first wife died “tragically” falling off a mountain on a hike. The second drowned “tragically” not long after they were married. In both cases, he had taken out large life insurance policies on his wives. The police managed to put two and two together after he murdered the second wife.

    Basically the moral of the story is check the insurance policies.

    Slate just published an article about how appearing happy on social media can work against you in a court of law http://www.slate.com/articles/techn... and why this is absurd besause basically we’re all a bunch of phoneys on social media. Don’t believe any of it. Certainly don’t use how someone tries to portray themselves on social media as proof of anything about that person’s character

      Seriously. When people are too lovey dovey on facebook, it’s because they are overcompensating. They will be facebook unofficial in no time. Some people go way extreme with their emotions on facebook. They either want everyone to think their life is roses and they are an eternal optimist or they get awkwardly depressing. Your blue, things aren’t going well, maybe don’t advertise that information to every person you’ve ever met that’s on facebook.

      It’s almost impossible to know a person actual emotional state by looking at facebook.

      Those heart emojis, wtf? I’m not here to tell people how to grieve but, dang. She doesn’t seem even a little bit upset. I would hope that if I died my husband would at least perfunctorily bemoan his loss.
