Direction

Now that I have done basic research on my topic, I have decided that I want to strictly focus on the cases that involve people getting married after one of them was convicted of murder. I hope that going this direction allows me to look more into the psychology of it all. I am so curious about the different thoughts that go into allowing ones self to justify how marrying someone who killed someone is okay; this is the contingent issue that surrounds this controversy. There is situated kairos in that whenever one of the notorious criminals get married or has a love interest, the media gets people talking.

I have chosen to look further in depth at the psychology of the situation because it answers or attempts to answer the question that everyone is thinking- WHY?

Although it is a simple question, there will not be a simple answer.


I think that this question is important because there is a stigma, I guess you could call it, that surrounds this controversy of women marrying murderers. My goal is to try to understand what these women are thinking to better understand why they would marry a dangerous man. Audiences that would be interested in my research could be  Women's Studies professors and students analyzing different relationships among different kinds of women. As well as family members of women who have married one of these men and are looking for an answer to why their loved one would do this.
