Irrational

“I brandished it at him triumphantly, like a weapon,” (Ware, p. 97).

Allow me to start with this very important declaration: I believe Lo did not hallucinate what she saw.

However, I do believe she should have realized, prior to this interaction, how little evidence she had to prove that. In fact, as a journalist, I believe she should absolutely have known how much evidence was piled against her. In that moment of the quote, she is portraying herself as an insane person. I get that she was most likely not in her sound mind, since she – you know – just witnessed a murder. However, she has shown herself to be smart and more willing to choose fight instead of flight. Yet, in this moment, she isn’t thinking rationally.
