Det är möjligt.
Kanske det faktum att hon var en vit kvinna i fertil ålder kan ha stimulerat brotts impulsen till mord.
Citat:
“Droll thing life is -- that mysterious arrangement of merciless logic for a futile purpose. The most you can hope from it is some knowledge of yourself -- that comes too late -- a crop of inextinguishable regrets.”
― Joseph Conrad, Heart of Darkness
Citat:
"She was without memory. . . She was without consistency or even without coherence. She knew only what she was and what she had been born to; to this knowledge she was tethered; it was her stability, enabling her to adventure in security. Adventuring, she was indifferent, perhaps blind, to the contradiction between what she said and what she was so secure of being; and this indifference or blindness, this absence of the sense of the absurd, was part of her unassailability."
― V. S. Naipaul, Guerrillas
Den "hon" i Naipauls roman var Jane, en vit kvinna som sympatiserade med den svarta revolutionäras kamp. Ledare av gerillasoldaterna sodomized henne när hon kom ensam till deras läger. Och efter att han våldtog henne hans anhängare hackade henne till döds.
