I feel extremely bad for Cynthia Townley. I can never understand why one would feel the need to murder another human being. I cannot and will not ever understand this. Something obviously went very bad to drive someone to murder another human being. I spoke with people that I had met at the bark park that knew her. It is a very small world. I wouldnt exactly consider the two "boyfriend and girlfriend" however; It is my understanding by a few of her neighbors that when she would see my fiance who parks his semi truck near her apartment that it was an ongoing joke that she would call my fiance her boyfriend and would parade around her apartment naked in hopes of drawing his attention. Why would someone in a relationship act out like this? Obviously, the relationship between her and her boyfriend was not that solid or she would not have behaved that way. Although, this is NO EXCUSE for murder. Their is no excuse for murder.
