Lots of people have low IQ.
Lots of people are from abusive backgrounds.
But few decide to become prostitutes for money.
Fewer still kill those they’re involved with.

The abusive relationship thing is often a hallmark of people desperately wanting to feel loved by anyone.
And ‘anyone’ is often seen as better than ‘no one’.
But she had to have had some say in her choices.

As far as I’m aware she didn’t seek out help from any quarter.
Police; social workers; battered women’s refuge; charitable institutions; church etc.
And the fact she killed more than once indicates an undiagnosed psychopathy since it’s not as though she showed any remorse for any of the murders she committed.

Sad though her story was portrayed

@Picklebobble2 it was too late for HER to ask for help, by the time she could dial a phone and/or travel to the (proverbial) shelter

It was too late

SHE WAS A VICTIM of people doing this and more people turning away

Maybe her tortureres were too ugly or stupid to take seriously, like battered ugly dogs in the shelter about to be killed for their own bad luck, except her people SURVIVED and abused her more till she had to fight back somehow

yup

WHO DECIDES to act like she did, huh?
