“The light inside of me shifted into a flame and I was like, ‘It’s f***ing on.’ I lured Jason to a public place, and the whole police squad showed up,” she said.
“I hear the most awful sound, like, blood-curdling, out-of-this-world scream, and I realize it was coming out of me,” she said.
“He just really didn’t think I had it in me to do something, so I did,” she said.
Jason’s daughter, who is not named in the trailer, noted that after she learned what her father did, “My stomach just dropped. I remember just being like, ‘What the hell?’ That was my dad. It did not feel real. It felt so shocking.”
