LOL. As for Steve trying to catch the wave of my anger towards my family,

and trying to use that to his advantage,

no. There was nothing in the house that can give an excuse as to what he's done, since the beginning, all these years, in its variations, lethal harm.

The emails obviously prove that interaction.

There were momentary anger, which was long resolved.

 

This was entirely about him.

 

So... No. You can't correlate one thing to another.

It's just exploiting.

 

There is no excuses for his actions.
