Perhaps part of the reason for the extended dialog is the fact that more than three women are murdered every day in acts of domestic violence. We read about these incidents to the point of it being daily news. As tragic, sad, unimaginable as the murder itself is, this story adds a language barrier, a sleepover, a witness who did nothing, two "rentals" on an employer's residential lot, and a confession. People are curious, not necessarily callous. And yes, some are wondering how much money that we never seem to have will be spent on defending this particular scumbag, illegal or not.
