About this listen

 What happens inside a mind during murder? Episode two explores the psychology of extreme violence, examining parricide patterns, the female killer paradox, and why eighteen blows to Abby and ten to Andrew reveal rage beyond killing. Analyze the extraordinary ninety-minute psychological gap between murders when Lizzie allegedly functioned normally with Abby's body cooling upstairs. Investigate dissociative states that enable brutal violence, the different psychological dynamics of killing stepmother versus father, and the face-attack significance. Examine Lizzie's eerily calm demeanor afterward—shock, dissociation, sociopathy, or masterful performance? Explore compartmentalization mechanisms and the psychology of fooling everyone while maintaining innocence. The mental state required to commit savage murder and immediately resume normalcy revealed.
