Damn, I am mad at myself for not drawing that comparison to Marjorie Diehl Armstrong. The only thing I didn't like about that documentary was that they overplayed her "genius". She had a lot of cunning and was absolutely heartless, just like Zoe. Like @Secret Asshole said, these sociopaths are EXPERTS at reading people.The way @Secret Asshole and @Water-T described Zoe sounds exactly like Marjorie Diehl-Armstrong. Marjorie was a bipolar schizophrenic narcissist with a massive case of Dunning-Kruger. The documentary Evil Genius on Netflix covers the 2003 collar bomb case, the death of Brian Wells, and Marjorie's involvement. Hearing Marjorie talk about how smart she is, while claiming to be a victim, while also claiming that she had men wrapped around her finger sounds so much like Zoe it's unsettling. Marjorie is what Zoe will be in around 20 years (hopefully with a lower body count).
Marjorie would have gotten away with it all had someone else not had an eventual conscience. Like Zoe she always has a few men near her that she could manipulate into doing what she wants. Staying out of the spotlight might be good for her health but it's bad for everyone else around her. And as Zoe gets older and more desperate who knows to what ends she will push people to in order to get what she wants.When people are asked to think about Marjorie when she was younger it's all about how pretty and smart she was. Sounding a lot like how Zoe's orbiters would talk about her now. Where Zoe uses Patreon to get money Marjorie did with lawsuits. Mainly negligence and malpractice lawsuits. Eventually that money runs out and she tries to get someone to kill her father. The father understood what his daughter had become and had already written her out of his will. For Marjorie her decent into madness comes mainly from her mental illnesses manifesting in 20 and getting worse as she ages. Illness and drugs really helped Marjorie age like tard cum into the image on the right.
Right now Zoe is about half way through the transformation of young lady to cat lady. In the case of Marjorie this is where the body count starts.
- Beginning at age 35 with the "self defense" murder of her boyfriend.
- Four years later her husband dies of a "head injury". He had fallen and hit his head on the edge of a coffee table IIRC.
- And in 2003 when she kills her then boyfriend James
James is thought to be in on the bank heist and the theory is he wanted to confess and she killed him to keep him quite. She tries to convince her ex-fiancé Willam Rothstein to help her dispose of his body. Instead he calls the police and that is what unravels everything.
There is just one problem with trying to ignore her into oblivion. There will always be someone she can find and manipulate to feed her ego. As the saying goes "there is a sucker born every minute" and Zoe has a nose for candy.
The problem is that Zoe will always be able to call upon a Bill Rothstein or two to do her bidding. So unfortunately she'll probably be able to hurt more people before it's all said and done. But she's also not nearly smart enough to avoid getting criminally hoisted on her own petard some day.
