My guess is that if that were actually the case, they wouldn't have said that they felt it was her as soon as they did.

That’s true. Crimes of passion is used for premeditation purposes.

But as far as changing it from crimes of passion to crimes of rage, I think rage is already inherent in these titles. I think the passion part does let you know that it’s based on a relationship.

You could become enraged against your mother/father, brother/sister in the heat of the moment and they wouldn't call it a crime of passion. I don't know what they'd call it. So I think crime of passion does let you know that it involves some sort of love crime.


I get what you mean but that’s not what the definition means. Totally different use of the word passion.


You're right. I looked it up. It's not limited to romantic crimes:

Quote:
In 2003 in Tampa, Lawrence Storer was sitting in his car outside of his restaurant when Shantavious Wilson pointed a gun at him and demanded money. Storer thought Wilson was going to kill him and begged for his life as he went into the restaurant and gave Wilson $15.23 in change. Wilson ran off and Storer called 911, then he got back into his car and chased Wilson.

The chase ended when Storer hit Wilson with his car, killing him.Storer's lawyer argued that his client "was confronted with a sudden, horrific situation and acted out of character" – a perfect description of an excusable homicide and a crime of passion. The jury agreed and Storer became a free man in 2006.

It is odd that they call her the "van life girl" when apparently the trip had only started in July and it wasn't like she was a full time van dweller.

She had a social media presence where she was trying to turn the trip into a media career. There are a ton of them out there doing that. Vanlife is a subculture.

Yeah, I don't know why one of them popped up on my Youtube feed but some girl had millions of subscribers. I just...I don't get it. Same thi9ng which game streamers. I don't understand watching something when you can do that something yourself. I watch the NBA or MMA or NFL because I sure as f' can't do what those guys do.

I think it is extremely rare for a black bear to eat human meat.

You overestimate zoomers, fam. "Something you can do yourself"...these braindead fetuses fancy themselves tech savvy but don't know how to use a can opener or change a tire. Being in a vehicle away from home for hours at a time is science fiction for them.

Wow! We have finally witnessed the day where you drew the line on tasteless and ugly. Been a long time coming. But to be honest, I'm not sure if I am pleased or disappointed.

Only because it's now evident that she was a victim of murder and domestic abuse. If it turns out she was shredded by a bear or fell off a cliff in pursuit of like share subscribes, I'll revise again.

I was thinking the exact same thing.

Now compare this to the Maya Millette case which had been dragging on forever.

In my opinion, there is no doubt the media runs with stories similar to this....and yes, they would appear to be blonde white females from middle class families under 25 years of age. Is it the chicken or the egg.....as in is this driven by Americans being more interested in stories that fit these parameters, or are Americans simply taking interest in the stories presented to them by the media?

Probably too much to dissect, but based on what I know about the Maya Millette story (and excuse my ignorance if there are details I am unaware of), she was 40ish years old and there was no real media hook....she just vanished and the husband is suspicious? The "hook" in the Gabby Petito case was the boyfriend returning over 2K miles without the girlfriend he left with on the trip. I do not think this story blows up if not for that element. Natalee Holloway had some "hooks" also in that it was in a foreign tropical location on a spring break/graduation type trip where she vanished after being seen with a local. I mean that is every parent of a young females nightmare. Not that it is any more painful than her going missing in her hometown.....but a parent does not really carry that fear of their child vanishing locally, while every parent that has ever sent their teenage child away on that first unsupervised trip where they can not get to them quickly has the Natalee Holloway nightmare. Still, there is no doubt if Natalee Holloway was overweight and had bad skin....I doubt it gets the media coverage.

Again, I am not disagreeing that there is a type of young female missing that the media makes a bigger story of....and one characteristic is usually being white. None of that should lessen out sympathy for Petito's family.

I mentioned this situation earlier in the thread. The fixation of the disappearances of attractive young white women goes way back. In the meantime, there are over 700 missing native American women in Wyoming, where Petito was found.

Agreed, which is why I didn't want to bring it up initially for respect to her situation and her family's. But, since someone else opened up this can of worms...

Human remains found in Wyoming have been confirmed as those of Gabby Petito, and the 22-year-old's death was ruled a homicide, the FBI says. Petito disappeared while on a cross-country trip with a boyfriend who is now being sought by Florida authorities.

She's white, blonde and attractive, it's that simple. Think of her as a humanized snow leopard. The public only loves the cute endangered animals.
