Which is interesting because Susan never mentioned a single thing to the operator about the kids saying that they were going to kill her or that they were going to go get someone to come and kill her.

Which, if something serious like that is happening in reality, those operators are taking notes.

They're giving those direct details to the investigators so the investigators and the responding officers will know what they're walking into.

So you mean to tell me that Susan just forgot about that part?

That she didn't think about mentioning it?

That the 911 operator just happened to be very bad at their job and didn't note that one very important detail?

Or is it more likely because it never actually happened?

And when the investigators asked her about everything the witnesses were bringing up, from her taking the kids' tablet, to throwing the skates, to swinging the umbrella at the kids, she just denied it.

Denied, denied, denied.

Now, I know I sound like a broken record here, but again, she's the victim.

She would never hurt a kid.

She would never throw something at a kid.

Her, never, not in a million years.

Now, probably the most important part of this interview was that Susan brought up a law that she felt provided her a security blanket.

She brought up Florida's Stand Your Ground law.

Now, I've probably talked about these kinds of laws before in different episodes, but if you don't know exactly what it entails in Florida's case, let me break it down.

Quote, a person is justified in using or threatening to use deadly force if he or she reasonably believes that using or threatening to use such force is necessary to prevent imminent death or great bodily harm, and that the person, quote, does not have a duty to retreat,

and has the right to stand his or her ground.

So basically what this means in layman's terms is that if you're being threatened or you are scared for your life, literally, that you have the means and the opportunity to protect yourself, that you have the right to stand your ground.

But in Susan's case, law enforcement still had to gather whatever information they could to prove that Susan was not in any kind of imminent danger and that what she did was unnecessary.
