when i see those polaroids, it’s very strange. it’s absolutely horrifying, yes.. hard to believe a human being could even do that to another. but as i look at them, the main thing i end up thinking about is just how far gone jeff was. how profoundly sick he must have been in order to do these things at all.. and not only that, but NOT be a sadist. NOT be someone who enjoyed causing suffering. it makes it clear just how much of an unfathomable death grip his addictions must’ve had on his mind for him to go to these lengths.
it’s quite understandable why some people think he must have been sadistic in order to do this shit. and yet he wasn’t, and we have plenty of evidence to show this. so as much as i guess i feel an outside pressure to hate him for it, i still can’t. i’ll never hate jeff, ever. i still feel just as terrible for him as i do for his victims. the tragedy just goes that much deeper in my mind.
this is the face of a broken man.
