Everyone who know her also know that she's a kind person. But she had a problem. Her ex husband realised that she was a very jealous person and in a exaggerated way. Actually, he discovered that her jealously was a disease and asked for divorce because that marriage couldn't go on. Mary at most time was a calm person and used to do everything to please her husband but the jealous atacks were getting more often. She loved him more than anyone else and when he said they were going to divorce, her sick and cold side took her body. She killed him in cold blood because in her mind, if he couldn't be hers, no one could.]]> 2017-03-11 00:22:01 UTC https://padlet.com/teacherscnajpa/iad7j19oo0e8/wish/159407249 natalialcavalcante https://padlet.com/teacherscnajpa/iad7j19oo0e8/wish/159410394 As expected by society, Mary Maloney is a very kind wife, who always have done her best for her family. She is excels at spoil her husband and a great homecare. She can stay calm in extreme situations and think fast, focusing not in the problem but in the solution, so I can say she has logical intelligence. She likes to schedule her whole life and if something goes different, it really pisses her off. Some people must say she is a psycho for killing her husband and manipulate people, but I can`t say for sure if it was an accident or not.

~ What can I say? She really creeps me out! ~

They don't really know her.
Her husband, however had the appropriate time to know the real Mary Maloney: an unpredictable and bipolar woman. 
It was this personality  that made him decides to ask the divorce. But, what he doesn't expected, happened, and at this delicate moment for both, she was capable to kill him and disguise, making everybody believe in her innocence .
If she was capable to surprise the only person who knew her well, what more can she do to others...]]> 2017-03-11 02:40:32 UTC https://padlet.com/teacherscnajpa/iad7j19oo0e8/wish/159411383 How to get away with murder https://padlet.com/teacherscnajpa/iad7j19oo0e8/wish/159411781 At the beginning of the story, Mary looks like a really good person, specially when you see the way she was concerned about her husband's death. The video starts to show some parts of an specific scene of their lives, and at first, Mary is a good wife who asks her husband how his day was anf offers him some drinks.  But then, the video shooks you with the image of the real Mary Maloney: a person who´s perfect at lying and doesn´t know   how to deal with bad situations, she´s kinda too impulsive but at the same time it looks like she had everything planned.  -Nelly]]> 2017-03-11 02:53:29 UTC https://padlet.com/teacherscnajpa/iad7j19oo0e8/wish/159411781 A brilliant mind? camilinhasantiago https://padlet.com/teacherscnajpa/iad7j19oo0e8/wish/160696521
Mary Maloney is different from the "Amelia". She looks like a good wife, takes care of the house, her husband. She’s friendly with her neighbors, must be beautiful, vain, nice and has everything under control. The ideal woman?

She has everything planned and calculated, does not allow anything to escape her eyes. Mary is a controller and has a cold-blooded mind to solve any problem. Even a Death. Her husband’s death.



Pregnant and alone? Never!
Murder? Impossible !
Widowed, pregnant, frail, helpless and innocent?
Why not?



I forgot to say: she has the strength to hold a heavy leg of  lamb, balance to hit the lamb on her husband's head and intelligence to make it look like it was not her.



 Is it or is not it a brilliant mind?]]> 2017-03-17 03:04:49 UTC https://padlet.com/teacherscnajpa/iad7j19oo0e8/wish/160696521 people are not what yo think luiza_lulu_2012 https://padlet.com/teacherscnajpa/iad7j19oo0e8/wish/160902769 Mary Maloney is a young and pegnant lady, that migth be in her 30`s, at a frist saw she looks a good wife, she can cook  very well, and do many things to please her husband.

Instead of this , maybe , in the women´s imaginary , one who killed the unfaithfull  husband and stay free  were smarter , an intelligent woman, The “one”. But what kind of intelligence ? I could not imagine the rest of her life. At some point She will face the trueth:  Ops !!! I killed the father of his child !!!

Mary Maloney is apparently the perfect wife. Kind, lovely a sympatric, she is holding a baby, and seems love her husband. Besides Mary is also intelligent, but she does not use this ability for good. 

     One day, her husband said he wants a divorce, because he doesn´t loved her anymore, but someone else, so was leaving her. At that moment, she stayed in shock, couldn´t believe that would be without her love and alone with a baby. So, she did what anyone could expect from a young, and good lady. She killed her husband in an act of jealous and crazy with a leg of lamb. After some minutes, she realized the mistake and the future consequence, and because of that planned a genius lie. She pretended nothing happened, she put herself in a victim role, and in a clever and covert way she lied to the cops and made everyone believe on her.
