[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]why is this thread alive?[/quote]

Someone dug it up but it is quite a story about how you never really know who you’re dealing with and what someone is truly capable of. The husband and AP probably had no idea how the wife would really respond and placed bets on her smashing some wedding china but eventually accepting a divorce without argument. Also points to how divorce is so stigmatized that she truly believed her life was over without a marriage defining it. [/quote]

It was brought up because of the newly released podcast and audio tapes[/quote]

I listened to the podcast after reading about it here. I disagree that her situation was anything like Betty Broderick’s - Betty was harassed, emotionally tortured, strategized against, and her labor as mother of 4, and working for decades for their life was totally disregarded. She is also a dynamo who worked hard for her life, and rarely wallowed. She was sent harassing clippings, recorded, and manipulated.

None of that happened to Jennair. They lied about an affair, and her husband is a punk who dithered. But she was a complete lunatic. He did eventually clarify his plans to file, none of it was a surprise. Jennair was a manipulator and controlling for their whole relationship and in childhood. He was enabling and weak. The adulterers didn’t “conspire” against her or “torture” her - she recorded them after she had all the info, she recorded herself melting down, she was just not willing to let him go. He wanted to go. She did not own anyone other than herself. Spouses aren’t chattel property. And murder wasn’t justified, because honesty, if you listen honesty, they didn’t break her. She broke herself.[/quote]
