Because she was rational enough to realize what had happened and placed her own concerns above his life. She was worried more for the blowback on herself and texted her fuck-buddy/partner to help with her own issues rather than tend to the man bleeding out on the floor.

To me, that shows intentional callousness. If she were fetal-positioned on the ground or unable to do anything, I'd accept she was in shock. But she was able to call 911 (implying she understood the severity on what had happened) and instead of doing more, just focused on her own well-being.


Calling 9-1-1 does not mean you're not in shock or flustered. People frantically call 9-1-1 all the time while still actively in a state of shock. Seriously, just go listen to some random 9-1-1 calls. You seem to think that people in shock follow a specific set of behaviors (such as not calling 9-1-1 and balling up in the fetal position) which is not the case at all. It's difficult to predict how any specific person would respond to such a stressful situation.

She was definitely more worried about herself though which is selfish. Not immediately administering CPR was bad judgement on her behalf, but calling it malice pretty much implies that she wanted Botham to die though which you're gonna have a hard time proving to anyone following the facts of the case. I don't even think the prosecution is taking that angle.
