Let's say they're watching a movie.

And we know that there is violence in all movies, unless it's a comedy.

They will see maybe the sight of blood or somebody being killed or a child looking at a parent.

That evocative memory is going to be triggered.

And then you combine that with PTSD.

One of the symptoms of which is flashbacks.

A flashback is when you're in a similar situation to the earlier trauma, and your brain tells you that you're in the exact same

situation again.

Let's say you're in the war, you are in the middle of an explosion, an IED goes off, years later you're walking down the street and a car backfires, all of a sudden you feel that you're in the war again.

So these kids are going to be exposed to similar flashbacks and evocative memory throughout the rest of their lives.

You know, Nancy, 50, almost 50% of all stalking happens during the course of a marriage, not necessarily afterwards.

So this stalking behavior probably started from the first date, first of all.

Secondly, there's gonna be a lot of behavioral evidence.

He probably made many attempts to contact her.

So there's going to be emails, letters, snail mail.

I think we're gonna find all sorts of things.

And in terms of the risk factors for violence,

Why now?

What pushed him over the edge?
