Could postpartum psychosis be the reason Terri Horman has behaved the way she has? It’s certainly an interesting question. According to Louann Brizendine, a neuropsychiatrist, out of the 10 or 20 women develop postpartum depression, one in a 1000 mothers go on to develop this serious mental illness of psychosis, where they lose touch with reality.
Do you believe you can identify someone’s personality from their words?
Tal Yarkoni, a doctoral graduate from the University of Colorado at Boulder, did an interesting study on bloggers and how their words revealed their personality. You can read a post about this on the Research Digest Blog, from the British Psychological Society, titled, “The links between bloggers’ personalities and their use of words.”
So, what do you know about my personality? What can you tell me about me from my words and my blog?
Dateline NBC ran the story of Billy Wayne Cope, who confessed multiple times to killing his daughter, though the stories he gave never corroborated evidence at the scene.
Dateline shares his confessions here.
What do you see when you look at these?

I just finished watching the story of Billy Wayne Cope on Dateline, which aired last night. All I can say is what a tragedy!! This man has been severely railroaded, and I completely disagree with the verdict in this case. I will definitely add this to cases that I disagree with.
I have a need to reach out to the people who have come to Billy Wayne Cope’s rescue to see if there is anything I can do. I hope they get this verdict thrown out.
People need to realize there are false confessions and from my understanding of human behavior, Bill Wayne Cope fits perfectly with a man who would do this.
I did not see any indications that Billy Wayne Cope murdered his daughter, and DNA supports this.
I will be looking into this case further, time permitting.
It’s amazing how much our body language communicates, isn’t it? Terri’s behavior and body language tells us a lot, and has from the very first press conference we saw her, even though she has never spoken a word publicly.
I am amazed at how strong Terri is acting in the face of all the adversity. She doesn’t show any emotions whatsoever when questioned by the reporter who probes her for information. She tries to hide behind the woman she is with, but that is about it.
For her to be so emotionless after her daughter has been taken away, she has been accused of a murder-for-hire plot, and she has people still squarely looking at her in the disappearance of Kyron Horman, she has to have nerves and a resolve of steel not to leak any emotions or to lash back at the media. You have to wonder at this point, if she even feels emotions at all to be so flat lined. I am blown away by her behavior here.
When we see her walk away to the elevator in the parking garage, she holds her head high as she walks, did you notice? I almost get the feeling she thinks she can beat this, yet when I look for any signs of arrogance, I don’t see any, which is baffling. Could she just think she is smart enough to get herself out of all of this?
Both Kaine Horman and Desiree Young, Kyron’s biological parents, are publicly stating now that Terri Horman has failed two polygraphs. Terri is fascinating to watch, even when she doesn’t say a word.
