To me it's one of those words that's kind of hard to explain....but I see it as similar to "hot mess" like you can say "that girl looks like a hot mess" / "that girl is ratchet".
My favorite term that an old co-worker/friend of mine would say that always cracked me up, was if someone walked in who wasn't attractive she would say "look at that girl, her face is busted." It was the way she said it....always made me laugh.
Alix's ex is talking. For some reason, I don't believe much of what he says. I'm just snipping the first part of the article. There are tons of pictures at the link, tho. And there are screenshots of text messages.

The former boyfriend of the accused ‘Call Girl Killer’ Alix Tichelman today revealed she made a 'frantic' call to him on the night she allegedly killed a Google executive with a heroin overdose and said he fears she could have been planning to take his life shortly before she was arrested.
High-priced Tichelman contacted Chad Cornell wanting to see him one last time - just days before he was shocked to find out she had been arrested on July 4 over the death of married father-of-five Forrest Tim Hayes on his yacht moored in a harbor in Santa Cruz, California.
Cornell, a general contractor and heavy metal singer, said they had undergone a nasty breakup after a seven-month relationship, and he found it strange how she suddenly changed her tone toward him.

Oops. Sorry!!! Must be one of those Australian link fuckups. It stops on pink wig for me & I couldn't bear to watch the whole thing so I thought it was all pink wig & his Lycra clothed mates. & I stupidly assumed there'd be ytube warning if there was anything slightly dodgy in the rest of it. Lesson learned.
I'll stick a warning on it, not that it helps you much now
DEFENCE attorneys for a high-priced prostitute accused of giving a Google executive a fatal dose of heroin on his yacht say their client had also injected herself, clouding her judgment.
Larry Biggam, who represents 26-year-old prostitute Alix Tichelman, said after a court hearing Monday that his client didn’t call for help because she panicked while on-board the luxury yacht with Forrest Hayes.
Lawyers for Tichelman said the death was an ‘accident’ with no malicious intent.
Police say Tichelman met Hayes, a father of five, through a sugar daddy website and surveillance video shows Tichelman gather her belongings, casually step over the body of the 51-year-old to finish a glass of wine, clean up a counter, then lower a blind before leaving the boat.
Yesterday’s hearing was to set a December 5 date for a preliminary hearing which will determine if there is enough evidence for a trial, the San Jose Mercury reports.
Tichelman has pleaded not guilty to charges of manslaughter, great bodily injury and heroin possession.
If convicted, she faces up to 15 years in jail.

http://www.cbsnews.com/news/prostitu...f-google-exec/SANTA CRUZ, California - A prostitute charged with killing Google executive Forrest Hayes with an overdose of heroin aboard his yacht pleaded guilty Tuesday to involuntary manslaughter and administering drugs.
Authorities say Tichelman injected Hayes, 51, with heroin in November 2013, then left without seeking help when he passed out on the yacht. Hayes had hired Tichelman several times before and they were doing drugs and having sex the night he died, authorities said.
Defense attorney Larry Biggam said Tichelman was relieved to have the court proceedings behind her and she is expected to serve only three years. She will be credited for nearly a year already served.
Tichelman agreed to the plea deal in light of the evidence, the lawyer said.
"It was an accidental overdose between two consenting adults," he said.
The self-professed high-end call girl who also pleaded guilty to prostitution Tuesday was arrested eight months after Hayes' death. A surveillance video at the Santa Cruz harbor showed the woman gathering her belongings, casually stepping over Hayes' body, finishing a glass of wine and lowering a blind before leaving the yacht the night before the body was discovered.
Tichelman was preparing to move out of California when she was arrested. She has wealthy parents and dual citizenship in the U.S. and Canada.
Prosecutor Rafael Vazquez was not immediately available for comment.
After Tichelman was charged in California, police in Milton, Georgia, took another look at the 2013 overdose death of Tichelman's former boyfriend Dean Riopelle, 53, the owner of a popular Atlanta music venue.
Authorities said a panicked Tichelman had called police, saying her boyfriend had overdosed on something and wouldn't respond. Police in Milton did not immediately return a call Tuesday seeking a possible update on the situation.
Tichelman has not been charged in that death. An autopsy report listed Riopelle's death as an accidental overdose of heroin, oxycodone and alcohol.

She is pretty busted for 26
And am I the only one reading "tickle man" every time?
I'm okay with her having consequences for not getting him any help, but also okay with not calling it "murder." He was a grown ass man. If you're old enough to hire a hooker ("high priced" as they keep reminding us), you're old enough to know heroin isn't fun dip.
Here's the long 48 hours article. Lots of info

Interesting. Not sure who to believe with this one."Call Girl Killer" reveals her story after Google executive's death
This story originally appeared on KSBW.
SANTA CRUZ, Calif. ? Alix Tichelman, nicknamed by national media as the "Call Girl Killer" and "Harbor Hooker" of Santa Cruz, California, is finally telling her side of the story.
In a series of interviews with KSBW this week, Tichelman relived the day that she met a Google executive on his yacht in the Santa Cruz harbor, injected him with heroin, and panicked when he lost consciousness.
Tichelman's risque modeling photos, tattoos, and a narrative described by Santa Cruz police fed into a movie-like narrative of a femme fatale causing the 2013 death of a millionaire who sought thrills from high-end escorts.
When police were questioning her, police told her that she was going to be charged with murder for the death of a 51-year-old Forrest Timothy Hayes. He was a married father of five at the time he was found dead from a heroin overdose on his yacht on Nov. 23, 2013.
His obituary vaguely stated that he "passed away unexpectedly." Police said Hayes was dying when Tichelman calmly sipped wine, gathered her purse, and left the yacht. A coroner determined that he died almost instantly, Tichelman said.
Tichelman had only met Hayes once before, when he paid her more than $3,000 to go to lunch. He told her his name was "Tim." For their second meeting, Tichelman said Hayes asked her to bring heroin so they could "party" on his boat, named the "Escape."
"This was consensual. He hired me to be there. I was supposed to be there to do what he wanted me to do," Tichelman said.
Tichelman said she didn't know Hayes had taken Valium and drank alcohol earlier that day.
"He seemed perfectly sober to me. If I had known both of those pieces of information, I would have never let him take the drugs," she told KSBW.
"He was very adamant about doing the drugs. Despite what police say, we never had sex. He was more interested in partying," she said.
Hayes lost consciousness moments after she injected him with heroin.
Santa Cruz's then-deputy police chief told the media that the escort coldly sipped a glass of wine as she left without calling 911.
"I tried to revive him. I was very upset and crying trying to wake him up. The police said I 'calmly and coldly' walking around the boat, packed up my stuff, and left. I was in a complete panic. I knew he was a married man. I had injected myself first, I was not thinking correctly. I didn't know he was in immediate distress, it looked like he was still breathing and had just passed out," Tichelman said.
She said he didn't want Hayes to get in trouble with his wife, the police, or his workplace.
While she was driving home to Northern California, she stopped multiple times, "agonizing over calling 911," Tichelman said. "Ultimately I didn't, and that's something I regret every single day, that I didn't call for help."
The District Attorney's Office later agreed with Tichelman's account about what happened on the boat after Hayes overdosed, and disagreed with the police department's story.
Another unusual part of the investigation was when the boat captain found Hayes' body. He quickly cleaned up the crime scene and took away the boat's surveillance video, according to police. Police had to issue a subpoena to get the video back.
Eight months later, an undercover Santa Cruz police officer convinced Tichelman to drive from her home near Sacramento and meet him at the Seascape Beach Resort in Aptos by posing as an interested client on the sugar daddy website she used, Seeking Arrangement.
"I had a bad feeling when I was driving. The officer was not acting like a normal person. He was checking in with me every hour. When I walked in, he was better looking than I thought he would be. I hugged him, and he didn't hug me back. When I felt his bullet proof vest, I knew I was going to jail," Tichelman said.
Tichelman said she was shocked when officers swarmed her. She wondered, why would so many officers be here to arrest a prostitute?
"I had drugs in my purse. I thought, 'OK I can deal with this. I will post bail," she said.
During initial questioning, Tichelman said police didn't tell her Hayes was dead.
"I didn't think he had passed away. But in the interrogation room, I realized there was something weird going on," Tichelman said.
Finally, police showed her the boat's surveillance video and told her Hayes had died.
"I will never forget that moment. One of the most worst moments of my life," she said. "They were playing some sick messed-up game. Police had this hatred and anger toward me, though I'm not really to sure why."
The District Attorney's Office concluded that the case was not a homicide, and Tichelman pleaded guilty to far lesser charges: prostitution, possessing drugs, and destroying evidence.
She served three years in the Santa Cruz County Jail, where she finally became drug-free during her last few months as an inmate. Tichelman said drugs were flowing through the jail, but she finally found the will to stop using drugs.
Her family's emotional support helped her survive her time in jail.
"I was prepared to go to prison for 15 years. I have the ability to see the light at the end of the tunnel, that comes from my family," Tichelman said. "I had a feeling, that as long as I did the right thing and held on, that things would turn out OK."
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents deported Tichelman as soon as she was released from jail. But she said she feels safer there.
"I'm glad I got deported," she said. "Santa Cruz police hated me so much."
Tichelman describes her life today as a "complete 180."
She said she's living clean and sober in Canada, and thinks about Hayes every day.
"I am working in the hospitality industry. I'm so happy at I found a workplace where I feel accepted, knowing that I can be a normal taxpaying citizen, and get up and go to work. That feels good," Tichelman said.
She also volunteers for a nonprofit that helps homeless and incarcerated women reintegrate back into society. Tichelman is studying to become a social worker specializing in helping people who are struggling with homelessness, mental health, drug addictions, and transitioning from prison back to society.
So basically police tried to make her out to be a cold, calculating serial killer just because she was a heroin user who (unsurprisingly) had lost other people close to her to overdose.
I'm seriously pissed off with "2014 me" for focusing on stupid, petty, shallow shit instead of the issues with the police case & the way she was presented in media coverage.
Huge, huge apologies if you ever google yourself & stumble on this thread, Alix.
