Message: [QUOTE="moqui, post: 85074, member: 214"] what you are seeing could be the result of any kind of trauma (trauma does not need to be physical to be damaging or lasting). try this one out: Bernie served as this kid's surrogate father for over a decade, and Davis grew to love him like a father. But, as an adult, he and Bernie had their well documented falling out. Davis is both hurt and angered because he has lost the love of his father, and he has been striking out at him ever since (which is why Bernie is now weathering the 5th investigation of this non-crime). The Oedipal urge to destroy the father is as old as the human race. Most of us do it in symbolic ways that we often do not even notice ourselves; occasionally, someone like Davis comes along and plays the psychodrama out publicly. [/QUOTE]
