  1. Well... she did. Look, Sarah is a monster, but it's ridiculous to deny that Jorge wasn't abusive or toxic in any way. He mooched off of Sarah's ex, didn't work, drank all day, and when it came to Sarah he gave as good as he got. Multiple people have confirmed this. His former roommate explicitly described him as "terrifying". What y'all are doing is called the perfect victim fallacy. You don't want to grapple with the moral conundrum of feeling such an outpouring of sympathy for someone who by all accounts, wasn't exactly a good person. You also don't want to give Sarah an inch by accepting that Jorge did in fact abuse her, just as she did to him, because you think it makes her sympathetic. I assure you, it doesn't. Accepting Jorge's faults do not make him any less deserving of justice. Frankly, I think it's a bit disrespectful to him and his family to deny who he is, because you're essentially tossing aside the real man to be forgotten in favor of an idealized fake version of him. I choose to remember the flawed man he was, not some character that looks better on paper. Well... she did.
