Maybe the troubled youth, maybe a bad upbringing. But her dad did get her tested for mental problems.
I wish sometimes that we could get past people who have had troubled youth and a bad upbringing because I believe that we cripple these people further by allowing it to be used for an excuse for all the sh%t that they caused.
"Why did you rape that woman"
"My dad beat me"
"Why do you shoot heroin"
"Because mommy never told me she loved you"
Human beings have a great capacity for good and bad decision making, but at some point you have to take responsibility for your dishonesty or stupidity or neglegence or whatever.
By giving someone like this girl a pat on the head and a hug because mommy and daddy got divorced and somehow it made her decide to fraud people, and actively plan and execute this fraud and then show no guilt until she was cause is B.S.
I'm just so sick of hearing about criminals making excuses after they're caught.
"I'm sorry your honor that I shot that kid, but daddy beat me up when I was bad"
Bullsh%t
We've all made bad decisions in our life, we've all done things that were outright wrong, but your past should never excuse your current actions.
If it did then Hitler and Stalin would be sympathetic characters instead of the monsters that they were.
