What is the quality of the "relationship" you have with Lori or Brian LaFond? How important is that to you? Lori and Brian have a tendency to think that if they can severe ties between you and anyone, that makes them more important. Is it that way for you? I've never felt that Lori or Brian was important to me...they've tried many methods to make it that way, but in the end, I've never known anyone that was better off because they knew Lori or Brian. Nobody. I'm certainly not going to take advice from two people that are out of control and I would suggest that you not do that either.
Lori calls her friends, "My family", but the truth is that she's simply surrounded herself with people that will tolerate her intolerance. These aren't family members. Family members see the addiction and mental problems and tell them about it, work with it, hospitalize it, therapy it and medicate it. Family, for Lori, is the co-dependent relationship between a drug addict and drug dealer. There isn't any "family" in that. They can live together for years and years but the underlying resentment that these four people have for Lori and Brian will eventually boil over and this little "family" of hers will leave her alone and lonely.
Long before she could ever ruin or decimate my family, hers will fall to pieces letting more loose ends go for her to try to stop later. I'm trying to alleviate that now by telling you here. You have to re-evaluate Lori's importance in your life and the quality of that relationship. When I look at those for myself, I understand that she has very little importance and the quality is so poor that paying any kind of attention to it only makes it rise.
I think because we have an investigation we have a tendency to be sucked into Lori's world of terror. The type of distance it takes to do this kind of criminal investigation into electronic harassment is further away than I thought, but not impossible to achieve. Learning what is evidence of the crime is so much more important than hearing the hateful words of the person implicated by the evidence. The separation has to come there. Lori is constantly looking for sympathy from people investigating her crime, we should know better than to give her any because we are professionals. We have educated mind experts. We have healthier bodies and we have the advantage of experience. Yes, this is unknown in the courtroom but someone has to be the very first, we should be those people by now. If we aren't, we need to be working in that position.
This crime has already seen a derailment because of misleading emotional baggage, brought to us by Lori's roommates. You can see that her manipulation is done second hand as well as first. If Lori can't talk to a person, because they are not implanted, she sends one of her goons to do it for her all the while telling them what to ask and what to do. Any deviation will be dealt with later with a smaller baggie of meth than they would have gotten if they had followed her instructions. The addict/dealer relationship is substituted for the friend/friend relationship that she sees as being in control of. "If you don't do this, I could be arrested and that would be a problem for you," Lori is famous for blackmailing her friends into action. I think that is the kind of meth-induced thinking that a drug dealer has. Lori, as usual, epitomizes what she thinks a rough tough drug dealer would do. I've known lots, but none of them have ever done this. It's a "kill for me" kind of vibe that most dealers avoid, but it does happen.
Life with a serial killer talking to you is much different than most people think. Yes, you prepare as much as you can, but there is always that car chase that begins the day and ends the day. Lori wants you in her controversey because it gets her attention. The kind of attention we pay to it is up to us.
