  • How To Deal With Murder Grief
    By: Maurice Turmel PhD | - Murder grief may be somewhat less difficult to deal with than suicide grief, simply because the answer to "why" always points to a third party rather than the deceased individual. Otherwise, the difference is akin to being hit in the head with a 5 pound sledge as opposed to a 10 pound sledge. Either of these will cause a lot of damage. The question of "why", in this case, leads us to try and understand the killer's motivation which rarely delivers a satisfactory answer.

There are more than shades of Molly Bloom here, as Veronica recounts intimate details of her own and her relatives' ultimately inconsequential lives. And despite its obvious and necessary preoccupation wi ...
