In the past year I have heard from a person involved in Morgan’s murder…shocking I know, but not entirely unexpected. \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

This female has been in trouble her whole life, and has always blamed others for her wrongdoing – so why stop now. \u00a0Does anyone think that a person involved in a criminal activities, like stalking and murder, will just admit what they did, and joyfully go to jail? \u00a0I really don’t ever hear of that happening, but I do read many articles about people that starting killing at a young age and were not caught until there were many other victims. \u00a0This female has used one-liners over and over when asked if she killed Morgan, as in her famous statement on the Dr. Phil Show, “Show me the proof.” \u00a0Ask most criminalists and they will tell you that an answer like that, to a direct question of culpability, is a major red flag…<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

In the message I received from this female, she said Morgan was an ‘evil psychopath,” and said, “she had it coming,” \u00a0and “her death was an accident”\u00a0(they deny the injury)<\/span>, and she is happy because “Morgan deserved to die”\u00a0(they deny the responsibility)<\/span>. \u00a0She accused Morgan of “destroying people’s lives and making them kill themselves”\u00a0(they deny the victim)<\/span>. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This is so “text book.” \u00a0This female is delusional. \u00a0She is giving herself, and others, a justification for Morgan’s death. \u00a0None of what she said to me was true, so it really didn’t upset me, but it was a “glimpse” into the mind of Morgan’s murderer. \u00a0Pretty scary stuff, and don’t think for a minute that this person has changed…no, she will only get bolder and harm more people in my opinion.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Syke & Matza (1957) and Matza (1964) wrote their conclusions on the process of delinquent youths becoming criminals as a matter of neutralizing their personal values and attitudes as they drift from conventional behavior and illegitimate behavior.<\/p>\n

They deny responsibility, they deny the injury, they deny the victim.<\/p>\n

They condemn the condemners. \u00a0The say, “It was not my fault,” “No harm was done,” They had it coming.” \u00a0In their minds they really believe they can shift the blame and their guilt of the crime in order to lesson the value of the life they destroyed. \u00a0Sound familiar? \u00a0Well it sure does to me.<\/p>\n

This is a very basic article that explains the techniques of neutralization…i.e. Victim-blaming. \u00a0Excuses made by the person responsible for the crime in order to shift the blame from them to their victim.<\/p>\n
