Jealousy drove Homolka in sister's death: Expert
'This personality cannot tolerate humiliation' she says of rivalry over Paul
From Canadian Press
A renowned criminal profiler suspects Karla Homolka is a ''malignant
narcissist'' who had a much more sinister involvement in her sister's death
than she's let on, Elm Street magazine reports in its April edition.
''This personality cannot tolerate humiliation,'' Candice Skrapec, a Canadian
lauded for her work in New York's Zodiac killer case, recently told the
magazine.
''It is capable of destroying others in the service of meeting its ego needs.''
Skrapec told the magazine's Trish Wood that Homolka's 15-year-old sister,
Tammy, represented a threat to her because her then-boyfriend, Paul Bernardo,
was taking an interest in the girl.
That jealously may possibly provide a motive in Tammy's death.
Homolka was given a 12-year manslaughter sentence in exchange for testifying
against Bernardo, who is serving a life sentence for the sex slayings of
Kristen French and Leslie Mahaffy.
The widely despised deal also gave Homolka immunity from prosecution in Tammy's
rape and death on Christmas Eve, 1990. Homolka has always insisted her baby
sister's death was a terrible accident.
Skrapec has scrutinized hours of videotaped statements Homolka made to police
following the arrest of Bernardo in the French and Mahaffy slayings.
Both Skrapec and a renowned American expert, Dr. Vincent Di Maio, theorize that
Homolka's involvement in Tammy's death went far beyond just ensuring the teen
was knocked out while she and Bernardo raped her.
Both suspect a nasty chemical burn that marred Tammy's face suggests Homolka
held a halothane-soaked cloth tightly over the girl's face, likely more than
once, knowing full well such actions could easily kill her.
Homolka said the mark was a rug burn caused when she and Bernardo dragged the
girl across her parents' rec room floor in St. Catharines, Ont., in an attempt
to revive her.
Di Maio scoffed at Homolka's insistence she applied the halothane sparingly, on
a cloth held near Tammy's face. The burn itself proves the cloth was held
against the girl's skin for some time, he said, and it was halothane, not
choking on her own vomit, that likely killed her.
''Anyone who puts an anesthetic on a cloth and holds it over a person's face
long enough knows that person is going to die,'' he told the magazine.
''You don't have to be a mental giant to figure that out.''
Skrapec suggests that Homolka had become jealous of the attention being paid to
Tammy by Bernardo.
The two had clashed openly about Bernardo, Elm Street reports, once when Tammy
cuddled up to him in front of other family members and was warned by Homolka to
leave him alone.
''That's the kind of public humiliation'' that Karla's ego could not tolerate,
Skrapec said.
''There's going to be some kind of rage directed toward her sister because her
sister is going to be the one who succeeds in getting Paul.''
Tammy was buried with an invitation to Homolka and Bernardo's upcoming wedding
in her casket, the magazine says.
Skapec said the array of wedding paraphernalia in the casket represents a
macabre game of one-upmanship for Karla.
''It's like she was pissing in her grave,'' Skrapec says. ''She's saying: `I
won, you lost. I'm marrying Paul, not you.' ''
The magazine also spoke to Dorothy Homolka, Karla's mother, who has been
publicly supportive of her daughter.
Privately she has struggled, even undergoing electroshock therapy to battle her
lingering depression.
''There is that mother's thing that says, `They all came from you, they were
all brought up the same way,' '' she tells the magazine.
''Maybe I did something wrong. I know that I shouldn't think it, but it is
always there.''

Ooohhh! The experts speak and have renowned reputations! This will set
off Art for sure! Don't worry though, he won't rest until he besmirches
their good names.

The jealousy thing seems pretty believable to me. However, I have a
hard time swallowing the part where they say she purposely killed her.
Joe,
Hates it when he's so open minded!

but the part about Tammy's death not being caused by vomiting is
preposterous. The cause of death was well-known, in spite of the failings of
the original autopsy. The drugs were the cause of vomiting, which is what
they missed the first time. The red stain was never explained, because it
wasn't thought to have been caused by the Halothane - that was the puzzle
that remained after the second autopsy. The burn mark extended around onto
her left shoulder.

to be near Tammy and when she died that's why he was so upset and treated KArla
so badly... he was really in love with Tammy.

It's so hard to say Paul. He had his chance with tammy when they went down to the
states and came back late. Rumor was it they were fooling around. Maybe Tammy drew
the line at just fooling around.
When Paul saw a pretty young thing, I think he just had to have her. Just for the
conquest. I wonder sometimes if he really enjoyed himself. You have brutal sex with
a woman, and then look back on it after. It would be hard to like yourself for what
you did. It is a tough way to have women, always by force.

psychopaths. That's one reason why they don't respond to treatment, which is
directed at the pathetic losers who so often wind up in prison because of a
bad background. Often improved self-esteem is an objective of the treatment,
which of course makes the psychopaths worse, since they already worship
themselves.
So I guess I'm saying that Paul Bernardo feels that he's a great guy.

Your right Murray. What a pathetic way to be intimate with a woman. Paul is one
sick fuck.

The article wasn't about Paul's self esteem but about Karla's. I feel that the
article offers some interesting points that make a lot of sense in regard to
Karla's personality disorders in relationship to Karla's participation.
