4. A five gallon pot would be pretty damn big. Wonder if they meant five quarts. n/t

10. Good observation.

I don't think she could lift a 5 gallon pot full of boiling water. Five gallons would weigh 41.75 lbs. That would be cumbersome to carry from the kitchen to the couch cold. I don't know how she could have done it with boiling water. 5 qts. are enough to peel someone's face off. Such cruelty. I wonder what this was really about.

12. Didn't say that the pot was full

Only that she boiled (unknown quantity) on water in a 5 gall pot.

5. It looks like the face of dementia to me - Mental illness, addiction, something like that

Maybe evil too.
