He's the term "shipping " to refer to his parents IRL marriage being built on little more than barbs desire to have a meal ticket and a place to live. Even when in jail he can't drop the damn internet speak.

Reading through the transcript again, I noticed that Chris is supposedly still in contact with Caden/Praetor. We still don't have a clear idea of their motives other than exploiting Chris for money, which doesn't seem very practical at the moment. I'd thought they'd have cut and run by now, Caden still sending Chris letters sounds strange. Could it be a ween impersonator?

Seems like Chris got some ideas from his psychologist. Something about generational trauma and his mother being obsessive/possessive-and in his own way, he intelligently uses this to essentially say "well barb be a ho, so...?"

A lot of the things he's saying about her background and attitude ring true-still doesn't excuse raping her though.

They seem to be grifters who want a passive income from Chris, things like knock-off medallions and other merch that don’t need his direct input, basically parasitic middle men.

Yeah, but I thought they ceased their business activities after Chris got arrested? Why would caden feel the need to mail Chris now?

How few old people have you interacted with in your life? When you get past 70 or so, there is a ridiculous range of levels of mental and physical health, often strongly correlated with how well off you were/how well you took care of your mind and body throughout your life. Yes, there are plenty of 80 year olds that live completely independently. I'm sure there's even been 80 year olds who ran marathons or climbed Mount Everest.

But on the opposite end of the spectrum, there are also 80 year olds that are effectively infants, shitting in diapers and not being able to speak or recognize even their own family members. Alzheimers and dementia are horrifying diseases and I kinda envy the charmed life you must be living to have never interacted with an older person in late stages of those conditions.

To me this letter reminds me of Chris Watts claiming his wife killed the children, or Jodi Arias claiming her ex boyfriend was a kiddy diddler/physically abusive. A desperate defendant who has no real strategy so tries to force blame onto the victim because they're too narcissistic to admit they done fucked up

Chris Watts has to be the dumbest murderer of all time. Dumping his kid's bodies in an oil tank at his work has to be one of the stupidest and most despicable things a criminal has ever done and despite that he didn't even get caught by them finding the bodies, he was just such a bad liar that within like 30 seconds of the cops showing up they (and even his neighbors) knew for sure he did it.

Praetor's still around. They restocked their Etsy shop recently including with some art Chris mailed to them from jail.

So Chris is trying to fuck Barb again?

This time he is trying the 'she came onto me first' argument? Fucked up thing is you know the lawyer has been working on him to say and believe this shit. That or the poor therapist is trying to understand wtf is going on here and is trying to apply conventional answers to a seriously retarded problem.

You can often get a good idea of how someone is going to age by looking at their parents and grandparents. Of course there are exceptions, like if your grandpa was an NFL linebacker or worked in a lead smelter, genetics probably didn't cause the dementia. Or if they got killed by something else, like cancer, accidents, or war, before they could reach the dementia age.

Neither of Barb's parents reached 60, but they didn't seem like healthy people.


Meanwhile, Bob's final years give an excellent glimpse into Mild Cognitive Impairment:

Many people use the infamous prank call where someone got Bob to argue with a soundboard of himself as evidence that he was gone. But most people's own voices sound weird to them when played back.

Dementia: forgetting what country you live in.
MCI: being pretty sure that Molvania isn't a place, but mixing it up with Moldova because you don't know how to check Google.
If Bob had just stayed away from Barb, he would've had a pretty good old age, instead of dying covered in mites while his son raged at imaginary people upstairs.

Chris is almost certainly aging like Barb.

Or his lawyer has told him to be quiet because “she was asking for it” is NEVER a good look, especially these days. His lawyer is more likely to ask for time served on the grounds that Chris is retarded, it was a hillbilly crime, and he needs mental help rather than prison time. Something like that, I’m not a lawyer. But not “My client should get time served because Barb was amenable to the merge.” Heilberg is not that kind of lawyer, from what we’ve seen.

Yuichiro Mira did it in 2013 at the age of 80. He had also previously been the oldest person to summit at 70, as well as the first person to ski down Everest, after an expedition in which six other people died.
