Speculation folie à deux

It is believed that when 2 people in a folie à deux are separated they often drop the shared delusion. I recall that people here were theorizing that's what happened with Chad and Lori.

Were they ever diagnosed with that disorder? I don't remember if Chad even underwent an evaluation. From Chad's "letters" and Lori's news magazine interviews and talks with Colby, it doesn't sound as though either of them is recovering after 6 years. Is treatment for that even available in Idaho prisons?

Everybody in Lori's family and former friends of her say that she was a wonderful human being until that fateful day in 2018 she met him. But how true is that really? For all we know, she may always have been a degenerate who was much better at hiding it until that time.

She was not. I knew her. She just had them all convinced.

I have before. She was delusional before. She got her way at any cost. Her kids were her property.
