Me talking about grey-morality hyper-competent fictional women driven by their trauma:

When we know who the criminal is, we can understand what set him off. In a homicide situation, we do the inverse. We ask, “What happened? Why did it happen that way?” Which narrows the search for who did it. But what if our killer is someone who’s not rational? Why do we behave the way we do? It’s a question asked by poets, and philosophers, and theologians since time immemorial. The playground of Shakespeare, Dostoyevsky, Freud. The stuff of Crime and Punishment and Beyond the Pleasure Principle. The greatest minds in history have been fascinated by the vagaries of behavior. So, in a case where we can’t immediately divine a motive, we shouldn’t panic. It’s a riddle, but it can be solved. It’s complex, but it’s human.
