In her interrogation tapes, Jodi says that she didn't have anger issues, but then says "Oh,
I kicked a dog once. I was a Freshman in high school and I love love love animals and we had this dog, his name was Doggy Boy and my parents...until this dog that they have now...have never been able to...and I don't mean just them...we as a family have never been able to care for a dog properly as far as give it attention and take it for walks and be consistent. So this dog stayed in the backyard a lot and he stayed tied up on you know in the shade with plenty of leeway. At one point though he was untied and I took the trash out and he...and this was when my little brother and sister were still in diapers...and he tore this, it was the diaper trash, and he tore diapers all over the yard. And of course I had to clean it up and when diapers get wet and they're like jelly, spongy weird stuff and I got mad and I just kicked him with my right foot and he didn't yelp or anything but he just went, and he ran away and I never saw him again."
*edited the OP because they showed more of the video. Wasn't expecting when I started typing what she said that it would be that much.
I can't imagine kicking a dog.

Nor my mother! And why do I suspect there's more to that dog's disappearance? Not that she killed him (I don't think

), but...?
