Is it parental alienation, or protecting children from sociopaths?

January 16, 2017 //  by Donna Andersen//  4 Comments

Editor's note: The Lovefraud reader "tootrusting" posted the following as a comment on yesterday's article, Horrifying saga of multiple predators, sexually abused children and murder. She asked an important question. Donna, have you heard about the young 12-year-old girl in Georgia, who took her own life, and streamed it live for all to see? This tragedy occurred December 30, 2016, and I just learned of it yesterday. It seems she had to grow up very young in life, and just could not take it anymore. This story has rocked me, and my heart breaks for the life this young soul endured. It appears many people, whom she should've been able to count on, repeatedly let her down. Mom, Dad, …

Horrifying saga of multiple predators, sexually abused children and murder

January 14, 2017 //  by Donna Andersen//  3 Comments

After all these years of running Lovefraud, at times I am still shocked by some people's level of depravity. Sara Packer, of Bucks County, Pennsylvania, worked as an adoption supervisor and, along with her husband, David Packer, fostered 30 children. In 2004, Sara and David Packer adopted Grace Packer and her brother when Grace was three years old. David Packer was later convicted of sexually abusing Grace and a learning-disabled foster child. He went to prison. Sara Packer took up with a new boyfriend Jacob Sullivan. Grace Packer disappeared in July 2016. She was 14 years old. Now authorities say Sullivan beat, raped and murdered Grace, while Sara Packer watched. There's more. This sto …

If our emotions are triggered, there’s more pain to process

January 4, 2017 //  by Donna Andersen//  4 Comments

Lovefraud recently received the following e-mail from a reader—we'll call her Sally: It's been almost four years since I left my ex psychopath. He almost had me take my own life through guilt, when it was him lying, cheating, committing fraud, you name it—a textbook case. The reason I write to you today, however, is I am so sad and disappointed in myself yet again. Four years and I thought I was over the damage done by the psychopath so I stepped out of my comfort zone to contact an old friend I had not seen since before the psychopath came into my life. I made a decision to visit my male friend and we had a nice time. When I returned I started analysing the situation. Was my friend ju …

Kelly Cochran, possible serial killer, awaits trial in Michigan

January 3, 2017 //  by Donna Andersen//  1 Comment

Kelly Cochran, of Caspian, Michigan, began an affair with a co-worker, Chris Regan. But when Kelly's husband, Jason Cochran, found out, he was furious, and threatened to kill Regan. Instead, the Cochrans allegedly hatched a plot to kill Regan together. Then they dismembered his body. But Kelly Cochran was angry, and 16 months later, she allegedly killed her husband, making the death look like a heroin overdose. Kelly told a police detective that she wouldn't lose sleep over her husband's death. "You feel (emotion)," she said, according to DetroitNews.com, "and I can't." Killings may go beyond U.P. woman's husband, lover, on DetroitNews.com. Link supplied by a Lovefraud reader.   …

For the holidays, give yourself the gift of honoring your experience

December 24, 2016 //  by Donna Andersen//  3 Comments

How do you get through the season of joy and hope when a lying, destructive, individual has wreaked havoc in your life? First, be gentle with yourself. You are a normal, caring, person. Perhaps you wanted to love and be loved, as all normal people do. Perhaps you felt sorry for the individual and wanted to help. Your intentions were honorable, but the exploiter took advantage of your humanity. Second, honor your experience. What does that mean? It means accepting that it happened. Much of the pain and confusion of tangling with a sociopath comes from not wanting to believe that these individuals are what they are, and they do what they do. Accepting that yes, they exist, and yes, you were …

Professor who murdered his wife asks for money to start over, but maybe he shouldn’t have

December 22, 2016 //  by Donna Andersen//  Leave a Comment

Ten years ago, on Dec. 22, 2006, Rafael Robb, of King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, bludgeoned his wife, Ellen Gregory Robb, to death as she wrapped Christmas presents. He pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 10 years in prison. Robb, a former University of Pennsylvania economics professor and an expert in game theory, was supposed to be released in January. A civil suit awarded $124.26 million to the couple's daughter, who was 12 when her mother was killed. Robb listed assets of approximately $3 million in the civil lawsuit. This week, Robb petitioned the court for $100,000 of his  assets to set up a new life after prison. But in a hearing, he mentioned an account in France, which he had not di …

Steven Dean Gordon, already a sex offender, guilty of murdering 4 women while wearing a GPS tracker

December 20, 2016 //  by Donna Andersen//  Leave a Comment

  Prosecutors in Orange County, California, started calling him "Jaws" because he was such a vicious predator. Last week, Steven Dean Gordon, 47, was convicted of abducting and killing four random women in Santa Ana, between 2013 and 2014. Gordon was already a convicted sex offender. His partner in crime, Franc Cano, was also a sex offender. Cano will be tried separately. Both men were under supervision after being convicted in separate cases of lewd and lascivious acts with a child under 14. Both men were wearing GPS tracking devices. In fact, it was the data from the tracking devices that connected them to the disappearances of the four women, who were all prostitutes. After …
