Sophie, this is a compelling review of Josh Powell’s psychopathic tendencies. I find it especially interesting that you mentioned his nature as a child. Criminals often display certain signs during their formative years, such as threatening behavior, cruelty to animals, and bed-wetting. I also find it fascinating to hear about the questionable ethics of authority figures as they dealt with the Powell family case. I would love to hear even more of your thoughts on this case!

This is a really interesting topic. I remember hearing about all this go down on the news and every time there was a development, I would feel so heart broken. I agree that the police acted too slow. I think they should’ve intervened as soon as people started noticing things were a little weird. Do you think that what happened with this family will change the way police act on these issues? Do you think they’ll keep making these mistakes? https://academicworks.cuny.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1075&context=cl_pubs

Sophie, I can’t wait to keep up with your analysis on the Powell case! This slightly reminds me of either true crime documentaries (like the “Ted Bundy Tapes” on Netflix) or podcasts (like “Crime Junkie”). It was a super interesting topic to choose and I feel like I could understand the case more. Thank you!

Sophie,
Super interesting stuff! I like how you are not just describing the events that went down, but also making informed inferences based off of that information. You lead the reader down a logical path that not only provides evidence for your reasoning but pushes your reader to come to the same conclusion. Well done! It might be interesting to give more details of what a psychosexual evaluation includes and if you could get to the records of his exact results. Here is a link to what is typically done in the test: https://www.csom.org/pubs/cap/2/2_4.htm . Best of luck with your essay.
This was a well written piece of writing ,I appreciated how you discussed different forms that could have possibly happened. It was easy to follow as well as a logical evaluation of the events that had occurred. I think it would help you if you added a little more detail regarding some of the hints that lead Josh to be the key suspect in the investigation. I think watching this Investigation would help with more details and information regarding to the murder of Josh Powell’s murder . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x5cQ-ZOaFj0
