Even if she is weird, factors like that should have zero bearing on criminal prosecution. An increasing body of research in the behavioral sciences shows that future emotional states are quite unpredictable.

Not to mention they weren't even THAT close. They lived together but had very different social lives.

They knew each other what, a handful of weeks? I mean yea its fricked up but I'm not going to react THAT emotionally about someone I hardly knew. I'm sure she was sad etc but cmon, the kind of reaction they were saying should be expected was just ridiculous.

She had a very very very brief "summer abroad fling" - they are obviously more closely connected to being prosecuted than making out.

I wouldn't think she'd want anything to do with the guy - for obvious tabloid reasons and for bringing back the worst years of her life.

Oh yea, I wasn't even talking about Rafael. I was talking about Meredith. She hardly knew that girl, just lived in a house with her.

I lived abroad and it was the same type of house mate thing. You'd be messed up if one got murdered but never really got close enough to anyone where I'd be MAJORLY f-ed up emotionally. And again, no way to tell how people respond, its kind of like War. Toughest SOB over here may completely crap himself when real bullets start flying.
