"Hold your horses dude, putting the kid to bed."
The above is a text message written by Joshua Komisarjevsky on the night of the Petit home invasion, mere hours before he sexually assaulted eleven year old Michaela Petit, taking pictures of the child in varying stages of nudity, tied to her bed amidst her stuffed animals, with a pillowcase over her head in some of the cell phone photographs found on Komisarjevsky when he was arrested.
Komisarjevsky would admit that at one point he "allowed the girl to take the pillowcase off" when he quote "allowed" Michaela to take a shower" after he claimed to have "only" ejaculated upon the eleven year old.
I propose that the pillowcase being off signalled that Komisrajevsky had already decided that Michaela and her family were going to die. Even though the convicted child rapist claimed to the Cheshire Police detective that he still wore his mask when Michaela Petit's pillowcase was off, it is quite clear that from his body type and voice, identification would have been very very easy for Michaela and her mother Jennifer Petit, who Joshua Komisrajevsky admitted speaking with at length throughout the home invasion.
Considering Komisarjevsky's reputation in Cheshire Connecticut, he had been in trouble with that Police department since he was a boy - among his "troubles" setting fire to an abandoned gas station at 13 - one can easily see that it was Komisrajevsky more-so than Steven Hayes, that would have been quickly taken in for questioning had he not been caught fleeing the murder scene.
As it turned out, when Cheshire Police arrived at the Petit home consumed in flames and a report of hostage taking for money, one of the lead detectives actually said "if Joshua Komisarjevsky is out of prison he is definitely involved with this"
Komisrajevsky would later more or less admit within that same taped statement that he made Michaela shower in an attempt to rid her body of his DNA.
The shower incident changing turned out to be just one of a many versions and lies that Komisrajevsky told the detective during his hours long taped statement to Police.. Forensics proved that Komisrajevsky has sodomized the eleven year old, which is why he spent months concocting a similar thing happening to him as a child, knowing that having had the identical abuse as he wielded upon a 11 year old child, would serve him well with a jury as well as the public eye and even more importantly, the eyes of his parents, who he simply had to manipulate, as they were his only allies besides his attorneys, after he was caught fleeing these horrific crimes.
It makes one ponder what Joshua Komisrajevsky might have had in store for his own daughter, whom at the time of the Petit murders he'd just fought bitterly for and won primary custody rights. He won custody, despite having begun the process while wearing an ankle tracking bracelet c/o the State of Connecticut department of corrections.
Yes, you read it correctly.
Komisarjevsky, a parolee with over 30 felony criminal convictions, won primary custody of his then five year old daughter, a daughter whom he was so cavalierly referring to in this now infamous text as "the kid"
Just warms your heart doesn't it? Brings his role as loving dad" right into sharp focus,
"Hold your horses dude - putting the kid to bed"
"The kid"
That kid" was recently primed and forced to testify on behalf of her now estranged biological father Joshua Komisrajevsky, a man who obviously could care less about what's best for his now nine year old daughter.
His biological daughter has been reportedly living with an anonymous maternal relative since Komisarjevsky's parents received a death threat letter against the child within months of the Petit family Kidnappings, assaults and murders. His parents, who Komisarjevsky lived with at the time of the murders, had applied for and were awarded primary custody of the child until the time that the threatening letter was received.
Apparently, the child's natural mother had once suffered from substance abuse issues and was reportedly experiencing some difficulties in out patient drug treatment when Komisrajevsky won a temporary bid for the child's primary custody. That custody surely never would have been granted back in 2007 if Komisarjevsky had not been living at his parents home in Cheshire, cost free, with built in baby-sitters -( his folks-) this, for the nights where Komisarjevsky was out creepy crawling through other peoples homes, after stalking the homeowners to insure that they were home, rather than the other way around, as most thieves or Robbers would do.
Joshua Komisrajevsky resumed his life ;long habit of breaking into other peoples houses the very same night that his Dept of corrections ankle tracking bracelet was officially removed as part of his parole conditions.
The very same evening he left his "beloved" daughter with his now aging and beleaguered parents who had helped him get custody ill advisedly thinking that the "responsibility would be good for Joshua".
These were the words of Ben Komisarjevsky on the witness stand while testifying for his sons defense attorneys at the start of this penalty phase charade designed to create as big of a smokescreen as possible in hopes of attaining a life sentence from this Jury instead of the death sentence that this man so richly deserves.
He made these crimes happen. He has shown absolutely no remorse, Shown, not spoken.
He even laughed at several points throughout his taped statements to the Cheshire Police. Despite after being taken into custody fleeing the murder scene in the Petit's car. He attempted to say all the right things at different times, no doubt trying to emulate what he thought a person with a conscience, who inadvertently got dragged into a multi murder against his will" would behave.
He failed miserably.
Laughing and chuckling while speaking to the Cheshire detective interviewing him Komisrajevsky spoke about the entire set of crimes in extremely detailed terms, using a flat unemotional voice that betrayed an absolute lack of care that he had just been party to stealing three lives off the face of this earth, having intended to kill four. Those three lives, unlike Komisarjesvky's, were going to continue to be charitable, giving and kind in spirit heart and self.
Sociopaths speak a lot, their words are very very cheap; most of what comes out of their mouths have a specific purpose, which is almost always to deceive and or manipulate others to do their bidding. In this case, this man is afraid of paying for his crimes with his life, as the law dictates in the State of Connecticut for Capital murders, with a certain amount of aggravating factors of which Komisarjevsky is guilty of many. Translated, he committed pre-meditated capital murders including one child and he committed those murders in a particularly cruel, tortuous manner. There was a great deal of suffering for his victims, they endured hours of captivity, only to be tortured and murdered what must be one of the most frightening ways to die.
And lest the jury forget, among all of these purposeful and deceptive distractions, Komisrajevsky is the man responsible for choosing these victims, based entirely upon his attraction to eleven year old Michaela Petit whom he spotted at that Stop and Shop supermarket the very day he broke into the Petit home.
He admitted to writer Brian MacDonald that he quote" liked the way the younger Petit girl looked"
For some reason the entire subject of MacDonald's book In the middle of the night" which was in effect, authored basically by Komisrajevsky while he met with the writer in prison, agreeing to interviews and letters to be used for purposes of publication of a book, supposedly describing the facts of the murders.
Albeit the "facts" were a utterly false rendition of what happened in the Petit home whereby Komisrajevsky tried predictably to shift all the blame for the murders onto his hand picked accomplice Steven Hayes, a man considerably less intelligent, less cunning, far less shrewd and I believe, less evil than his younger counterpart.
He had the audacity to taunt the sole survivor in this book, as well he did within his Journals and other writings found within his prison cell - papers he knew would be confiscated and thus eventually make their way to the media. After bashing a mans head in at least 8 -12 times with a bat, just so he could get at a child whom he wished to rape, Komisrajevsky co-writes a book breaking a gag order in an effort to BS the Jury pool as well as taunt the one survivor who as a sociopath, he sees as the one loose end he wasn't able to control within these crimes, and therefore his animosity towards William Petit is extremely clear and further proof of his absolute evil nature.
This is where people must learn to suspend their natural inclination to imagine that the bad guy must be the one who looks mean and has no one standing by him throughout the Judicial processes. This was merely fortuitous luck for Komisrajevsky, that his face had a certain arrangement of features, And it is most unfortunate, because our country, collectively speaking, would seem to be suckers when it comes to refusing to accept that a relatively normal looking, clean cut person, who came from a "decent" set of parents they appearing to play by all the rules of life... well then, it must have been the other mean looking guy.
Remember Casey Anthony? The outcome of this trial, including Casey's own attorneys zealous defense, is a perfect example of" bias based upon lookism" and in this case - genderism/sexism and classism for that matter. As well, just like Komisarjevsky, Anthony also had the advantage of of a good dose of parental enabling, particularly,Casey's mother, who actually lied on the stand over and over in attempt to spare her daughter from a murder conviction and subsequent death penalty for murdering her own child. And that mother, like Komisarjevsky's parents, refused to believe that her adult child could kill in cold blood. It must have been an accident" Mrs Casey convinced herself that the accident scenario was much more palatable to her parental conscience.
Right after the Petit murders, I recall a public statement being released by the Komisrajevsky family. As soon as I heard the choice of wording, I said to myself....Well, there you have it Denial at it's worst.
While of course being long time Cheshire residents and Christians, they were compelled to say something; What Jude Komisrajevsky said was something to the effect of " We are so sorry for the Petit family's loss and this whole terrible situation, we are at a complete loss -- we simply don't understand what made this happen"
Now right there, the Komiarjevsky's were separating the crimes, the murders and the rapes of the Petit family from their son. " What made this happen"
The inference is that some outside force, either Steven Hayes, or perhaps those demons that their son was always trying to blame his actions on,
(knowing full well that his evangelical parents believed in such things) perhaps the demons and Steven Hayes" made these crimes happen"
OK, your son has a life long history of breaking into peoples homes when they are occupied by the homeowners. He has an even earlier history of stealing women's sexual trophy's such as panties and other lingerie. He sexually assaulted his own sister and mentioned NOTHING about having suffered years of severe sexual assault by his foster brother at that point. He was caught setting a gas station on fire at age 13---which he since claimed to his defense hired psychiatrist was " an accident" . He has been having sex with underage girls since he was of a legal age.
But you" don't understand how this, the Petit crimes, home invasion, rape of a minor, extortion, his beating a sleeping man almost to death so he could rape the mans child HAPPENED?
And finally, the arson murder and attempted destruction of the crime scene.
None of this seems familiar Mrs Komisrajevsky? You don't understand what made this happen?"
Your son Joshua made it happen.
I recall thinking all of these things when I read the official Komisarjevsky family statement soon after these terrible crimes.
Komisrajevsky was not a thief or a robber, as is evidenced by his very early habit of peeping into women and girls windows, climbing trees at times, hiding in bushes and stealing panties and other such trophy's" at the tender age of 8-10 years of age.
I cannot believe that this prosecution has not brought in a forensic psychiatrist of their own to point out that Komisarjevsky's problem wasn't"an untreated mood disorder"IE bipolar disorder, which Komisrajevsky's defense team dreamed up and steered their hired psychiatrists and psychologist to attest to once given a tidbit of information from an anti-death penalty group in Europe whose sole job is to find mitigating factors for Americans with European descent,currently on death row or as in Komisarjevsky's case, charged with capital murder charges that could result in a death penalty sentence.
I read about this group months ago researching Komisarjevsky's adoptive past, and looking for mitigating factors" since he was adopted.
If Komisarjevsky had been adopted later, they would have searched for any information supporting possible abuse or even volatility in his birth mothers life while carrying! As it was, he was adopted in fact at 2 weeks old by Jude and Ben Komisarjevsky as this was the case they could only work with things like mental illness in his genetic family which they then proffer up to the attorneys to use for the defendant or convicted persons defense.
Whether the person committed the murders and or rapes and or other atrocities that they have been either charged with convicted of and or sentenced for, is of no consideration the this European based anti-death penalty group. They simply help anyone anyone who is of European descent in America that is facing a death sentence- period. They believe that the American death penalty is wrong, but they will aid and abet murderous child rapists and insidiously feed child killers attorneys monies derived from various sources such as wealthy people in Europe and abroad who do not believe in the death penalty, despite the fact that this country has been using lethal injection for many years, an incredibly kind way of removing extremely dangerous and evil murderers from our midst, people who may very well escape and commit more murders given half a chance.
Additionally this latest excuse for a mitigating factor, that Komisrajevsky was suffering from an undiagnosed mood disorder throughout his entire adolescence must be addressed and nipped in the bud for the Jury, and no one is doing, so as of yet. If, incidentally he did have bi-polar disorder which hundreds of thousands of people live untreated with as teens and adults, this was of little to no consequence in light of clearly more dominant "disorders" that komisarjevsky had.
I am speaking of personality disorders which includes anti-social personality disorder, which when one is under the age of seventeen is technically called oppositional defiant disorder, ODD, which in fact Komisrajevsky was diagnosed with right after setting the fire at the gas station at age 12 or 13.
This was when Jude Komisrajevsky, his mother, decided that if she followed the psychiatrists suggestion of putting Komisrajevsky on anti-psychotics, he would likely abuse and misuse them and it would then turn into another problem with her problematic son, and she was right.:
Komisarjevsky would never had adhered to a drug regimen-one can ascertain this simply by looking at all of his childhood behaviors up until that point. At the core of oppositional defiant disorder is a hatred for authority; No one is going to tell a oppositional defiant kid to take his medicine at such and such a time. That "kid"was already sneaking out of his window at night for years.He was stalking girls and stealing panties, breaking into homes, sexually abusing his sister and trying to make bombs.
And not that it has one ounce of relevancy except for me it speaks volumes of his propensity to fabricate and manipulate in order to not escape detection and thus culpability and punishment, I also do not believe Komisarjevky's story about rolling around in the thickets for a minute, so that he could quote"feel the pain in order to feel alive"
He probably read this somewhere as it relates to cutting and other behaviors of "Troubled teens and children and he latched right onto it. This man has proven via the Brian MacDonald letters and interviews, and even his own lie packed "journals" that were confiscated in his prison cell while awaiting his trial, that he lies
Nor do I believe that Komisrajevsky was continually sexually abused by his foster brother Scott, who molested their other foster child. I do believe that perhaps one incident might have happened and I know in my heart that if Komisrajevsky had been sodomized and left bleeding by his so called "brother" he certainly would have been telling the world this much sooner, trying to use it as a means of getting lesser punishments for his many many other criminal charges and convictions. He has had months and then years and years to dream this stuff up and that is what Sociopaths do. Komisrajevsky is intelligent in a certain sense; he is a master manipulator and he gravitates towards naive people people who have kind and decent natures as they are most likely to want to believe that no one who looks like him who is that young could be so very evil;
Unfortunately for us and Jennifer Petit Komisarjevsky does not have a prototypical face that most people, including Judge Blue, ascribe to killers and rapists, compared with Steven Hayes face and even his body type at the time of the murders. This is a country that foolishly continues to rely on peoples appearance when ascertaining whether they are likely to be a threat.
Poor Jennifer Petit likely fell prey to the fact that Komisrajevsky didn't "look like a man who would sodomize her 11 year old and murder her family after getting the money he so pleasantly asked for. Remember, Mrs Petit told the bank teller " they're being really nice" as she referred to the men that invaded her house and at that point hadn't killed anyone yet simply because they hadn't gotten the 15,000 from Mrs Petit at that point which was the very last part of their" plan"
Thus, the men, led by Komisrajevsky, who did almost all the talking to Jennifer Petit, were "playing nice" in order to gain her compliance, knowing full well the gasoline had been purchased already in order to burn down her house and kill her family - the plan was laid out.
While Steven Hayes was dispatched by komisarjevsky to accompany Mrs Petit to the bank, thereby putting him in the position of risk if she were to run or tell authorities, he was safely ensconced at the Petit home, with Dr Petit beaten by his hands and a wooden bat tied to a pole in the cellar, and Komisrajevsky was upstairs in Michaela room, sodomizing the eleven year old whom he had waited patiently to do, as he could not afford to risk Jennifer Petit knowing what a monster he was before he got everything he wanted from her, including the ever important 15,000.
This is a man who is twice as evil as his accomplice Steven Hayes. Joshua Komsarjevsky played Jennifer Petit like a violin, because he knew she was a nice trusting person christian and like his own mother could easily be manipulated not wanting to believe that someone so young and relatively "normal looking" who spoke intelligently, was capable of being "nice" to her and her daughters- so she thought as she was tied up on a separate floor from Michaela's room and didn't know of the quiet sexual molestations that were going on throughout the early morning hours before she even left the house to get the money, as per Komisrajevsky's instructions.
Every member of this jury needs to look at Komisrajevsky and simply remember how he has manipulated so many people, all of his life, and this should in turn put anything that he has told anyone ( much less his lawyer funded shrink who has been paid to give a skewed regurgitation of Komisarjevsky's most recent claims about his childhood) none of which can be directly verified. All of the so called abusers in Komisrajevskys life were interviewed by these defense paid Psychologists and Psychiatrists. None of them have taken the stand as they would then have to be cross examined by the prosecutor, which the defense knows would equal their testimony falling apart; So this defense, ever the slippery eels, thinking this Jury wont know the difference, pull in Scott Reese, the learning disabled foster child, now an adult, who happens to be near retarded and possibly schizophrenic,And according to the therapist when asked about abuse of Komisarjevsky, Reese said simply something like that might have happened"
Besides the fact that we as well as the jury have no idea if this man even said that or to exactly what he was referring when he said it if he said it! Anything from did you two mutually masturbate, to did you play with his private parts might have been asked, we don't know what words Scott Reese was asked, as we only have the testimony of these two therapists who again are being paid big money by the defense to meet with komisarjevsky and briefly Mr Reese, and testify in a manner that will make komisrajevsky appear as abused as possible as a child.
There are no tape recordings of these sessions that these shrinks had with komisarjevskys supposed childhood abuser that turned him into an abuser. as well I have read for years that Komisarjevsky claimed one one sexual abuse at the age of 14, by someone he quote trusted." Now this has transformed magically into years and years, of not only abuse, but were now being expected to believe that Komisrajevsky was penetrated anally over and over and left bleeding.
Please.
Such as this supposed now five years of sexual abuse, which just a few years ago komisarjevsky claimed was one sexual assault at the age of 14 - In fact again, this is what he told writer Brian MacDonald and what he told his own mother while he was in prison for a string of burglaries. Burglaries of course being a misnomer as they were not burglaries at all, but in fact home invasion's,stalking, sexual predation crimes
Komisarjevsky, remember, only broke into homes when the residents were in them.
He called it a form of "extreme sport" His defense paid shrink would have us believe that poor Joshua Komisarjevsky had to break into our homes while we lay sleeping or watching TV or eating their dinner, not because he is a Sociopath, and has been since he was a young teen, but because of some made up for the occasion sexual abuse that he now is claiming to have endured silently. Only after having years to sit in prison dreaming up plausible scenarios for why he would sodomize an 11 year old child, set the poor child on fire, tied to her bed, along with her sister to destroy his DNA evidence and the witnesses in one act;
Both girls had gasoline poured on their bed linens, and their bodies, while they were alive.
Komisrajevsky, according to Steven Hayes and later admitting it himself, tied up Jennifer Petit after she returned from the bank with the 15,000 that he Komisrajevsky had asked for.
According to Hayes Komisrajevsky told him " take care of her" meaning to murder Mrs Petit.
Komisarjevsky had planned this all along; Jennifer Petit was now a serious threat to Komisrajevsky, an eyewitness to both men; she spoke to Komisarjevsky at length, according to both his interviews with MacDonald as well as Cheshire Police. Of course both versions contradicted each other but it is easy to see where the truth lay, and later Komisrajevsky would say, ' I shouldn't have talked to her, I liked her" meaning I didn't want to like her because she was going to be killed no matter what - she was a huge threat to Joshua Komisarjevsky, as was her daughter Michaela. Besides the DNA all over Michaela's bed in Michaela's body and her room both she and her mother had seen and heard way too much of him.
He was, after all, the Town of Cheshire's most well known thief home invader, arsonist stalker of young girls and general trouble maker. He had just gotten his GPS ankle tracker removed three days prior to these crimes.On the first and second night he took Steven Hayes to other homes in Cheshire, to perform break-ins, with small items stolen, merely to show Hayes " how easy it would be to get inside a home and take it over"

I read about this group months ago researching Komisarjevsky's adoptive past, and looking for mitigating factors" since he was adopted.
If Komisarjevsky had been adopted later, they would have searched for any information supporting possible abuse or even volatility in his birth mothers life while carrying! As it was, he was adopted in fact at 2 weeks old by Jude and Ben Komisarjevsky as this was the case they could only work with things like mental illness in his genetic family which they then proffer up to the attorneys to use for the defendant or convicted persons defense.
Whether the person committed the murders and or rapes and or other atrocities that they have been either charged with convicted of and or sentenced for, is of no consideration the this European based anti-death penalty group. They simply help anyone anyone who is of European descent in America that is facing a death sentence- period. They believe that the American death penalty is wrong, but they will aid and abet murderous child rapists and insidiously feed child killers attorneys monies derived from various sources such as wealthy people in Europe and abroad who do not believe in the death penalty, despite the fact that this country has been using lethal injection for many years, an incredibly kind way of removing extremely dangerous and evil murderers from our midst, people who may very well escape and commit more murders given half a chance.
Additionally this latest excuse for a mitigating factor, that Komisrajevsky was suffering from an undiagnosed mood disorder throughout his entire adolescence must be addressed and nipped in the bud for the Jury, and no one is doing, so as of yet. If, incidentally he did have bi-polar disorder which hundreds of thousands of people live untreated with as teens and adults, this was of little to no consequence in light of clearly more dominant "disorders" that komisarjevsky had.
I am speaking of personality disorders which includes anti-social personality disorder, which when one is under the age of seventeen is technically called oppositional defiant disorder, ODD, which in fact Komisrajevsky was diagnosed with right after setting the fire at the gas station at age 12 or 13.
This was when Jude Komisrajevsky, his mother, decided that if she followed the psychiatrists suggestion of putting Komisrajevsky on anti-psychotics, he would likely abuse and misuse them and it would then turn into another problem with her problematic son, and she was right.:
Komisarjevsky would never had adhered to a drug regimen-one can ascertain this simply by looking at all of his childhood behaviors up until that point. At the core of oppositional defiant disorder is a hatred for authority; No one is going to tell a oppositional defiant kid to take his medicine at such and such a time. That "kid"was already sneaking out of his window at night for years.He was stalking girls and stealing panties, breaking into homes, sexually abusing his sister and trying to make bombs.
And not that it has one ounce of relevancy except for me it speaks volumes of his propensity to fabricate and manipulate in order to not escape detection and thus culpability and punishment, I also do not believe Komisarjevky's story about rolling around in the thickets for a minute, so that he could quote"feel the pain in order to feel alive"
He probably read this somewhere as it relates to cutting and other behaviors of "Troubled teens and children and he latched right onto it. This man has proven via the Brian MacDonald letters and interviews, and even his own lie packed "journals" that were confiscated in his prison cell while awaiting his trial, that he lies
Nor do I believe that Komisrajevsky was continually sexually abused by his foster brother Scott, who molested their other foster child. I do believe that perhaps one incident might have happened and I know in my heart that if Komisrajevsky had been sodomized and left bleeding by his so called "brother" he certainly would have been telling the world this much sooner, trying to use it as a means of getting lesser punishments for his many many other criminal charges and convictions. He has had months and then years and years to dream this stuff up and that is what Sociopaths do. Komisrajevsky is intelligent in a certain sense; he is a master manipulator and he gravitates towards naive people people who have kind and decent natures as they are most likely to want to believe that no one who looks like him who is that young could be so very evil;
Unfortunately for us and Jennifer Petit Komisarjevsky does not have a prototypical face that most people, including Judge Blue, ascribe to killers and rapists, compared with Steven Hayes face and even his body type at the time of the murders. This is a country that foolishly continues to rely on peoples appearance when ascertaining whether they are likely to be a threat.
Poor Jennifer Petit likely fell prey to the fact that Komisrajevsky didn't "look like a man who would sodomize her 11 year old and murder her family after getting the money he so pleasantly asked for. Remember, Mrs Petit told the bank teller " they're being really nice" as she referred to the men that invaded her house and at that point hadn't killed anyone yet simply because they hadn't gotten the 15,000 from Mrs Petit at that point which was the very last part of their" plan"
Thus, the men, led by Komisrajevsky, who did almost all the talking to Jennifer Petit, were "playing nice" in order to gain her compliance, knowing full well the gasoline had been purchased already in order to burn down her house and kill her family - the plan was laid out.
While Steven Hayes was dispatched by komisarjevsky to accompany Mrs Petit to the bank, thereby putting him in the position of risk if she were to run or tell authorities, he was safely ensconced at the Petit home, with Dr Petit beaten by his hands and a wooden bat tied to a pole in the cellar, and Komisrajevsky was upstairs in Michaela room, sodomizing the eleven year old whom he had waited patiently to do, as he could not afford to risk Jennifer Petit knowing what a monster he was before he got everything he wanted from her, including the ever important 15,000.
This is a man who is twice as evil as his accomplice Steven Hayes. Joshua Komsarjevsky played Jennifer Petit like a violin, because he knew she was a nice trusting person christian and like his own mother could easily be manipulated not wanting to believe that someone so young and relatively "normal looking" who spoke intelligently, was capable of being "nice" to her and her daughters- so she thought as she was tied up on a separate floor from Michaela's room and didn't know of the quiet sexual molestations that were going on throughout the early morning hours before she even left the house to get the money, as per Komisrajevsky's instructions.
Every member of this jury needs to look at Komisrajevsky and simply remember how he has manipulated so many people, all of his life, and this should in turn put anything that he has told anyone ( much less his lawyer funded shrink who has been paid to give a skewed regurgitation of Komisarjevsky's most recent claims about his childhood) none of which can be directly verified. All of the so called abusers in Komisrajevskys life were interviewed by these defense paid Psychologists and Psychiatrists. None of them have taken the stand as they would then have to be cross examined by the prosecutor, which the defense knows would equal their testimony falling apart; So this defense, ever the slippery eels, thinking this Jury wont know the difference, pull in Scott Reese, the learning disabled foster child, now an adult, who happens to be near retarded and possibly schizophrenic,And according to the therapist when asked about abuse of Komisarjevsky, Reese said simply something like that might have happened"
Besides the fact that we as well as the jury have no idea if this man even said that or to exactly what he was referring when he said it if he said it! Anything from did you two mutually masturbate, to did you play with his private parts might have been asked, we don't know what words Scott Reese was asked, as we only have the testimony of these two therapists who again are being paid big money by the defense to meet with komisarjevsky and briefly Mr Reese, and testify in a manner that will make komisrajevsky appear as abused as possible as a child.
There are no tape recordings of these sessions that these shrinks had with komisarjevskys supposed childhood abuser that turned him into an abuser. as well I have read for years that Komisarjevsky claimed one one sexual abuse at the age of 14, by someone he quote trusted." Now this has transformed magically into years and years, of not only abuse, but were now being expected to believe that Komisrajevsky was penetrated anally over and over and left bleeding.
Please.
Such as this supposed now five years of sexual abuse, which just a few years ago komisarjevsky claimed was one sexual assault at the age of 14 - In fact again, this is what he told writer Brian MacDonald and what he told his own mother while he was in prison for a string of burglaries. Burglaries of course being a misnomer as they were not burglaries at all, but in fact home invasion's,stalking, sexual predation crimes
Komisarjevsky, remember, only broke into homes when the residents were in them.
He called it a form of "extreme sport" His defense paid shrink would have us believe that poor Joshua Komisarjevsky had to break into our homes while we lay sleeping or watching TV or eating their dinner, not because he is a Sociopath, and has been since he was a young teen, but because of some made up for the occasion sexual abuse that he now is claiming to have endured silently. Only after having years to sit in prison dreaming up plausible scenarios for why he would sodomize an 11 year old child, set the poor child on fire, tied to her bed, along with her sister to destroy his DNA evidence and the witnesses in one act;
Both girls had gasoline poured on their bed linens, and their bodies, while they were alive.
Komisrajevsky, according to Steven Hayes and later admitting it himself, tied up Jennifer Petit after she returned from the bank with the 15,000 that he Komisrajevsky had asked for.
According to Hayes Komisrajevsky told him " take care of her" meaning to murder Mrs Petit.
Komisarjevsky had planned this all along; Jennifer Petit was now a serious threat to Komisrajevsky, an eyewitness to both men; she spoke to Komisarjevsky at length, according to both his interviews with MacDonald as well as Cheshire Police. Of course both versions contradicted each other but it is easy to see where the truth lay, and later Komisrajevsky would say, ' I shouldn't have talked to her, I liked her" meaning I didn't want to like her because she was going to be killed no matter what - she was a huge threat to Joshua Komisarjevsky, as was her daughter Michaela. Besides the DNA all over Michaela's bed in Michaela's body and her room both she and her mother had seen and heard way too much of him.
He was, after all, the Town of Cheshire's most well known thief home invader, arsonist stalker of young girls and general trouble maker. He had just gotten his GPS ankle tracker removed three days prior to these crimes.On the first and second night he took Steven Hayes to other homes in Cheshire, to perform break-ins, with small items stolen, merely to show Hayes " how easy it would be to get inside a home and take it over"
