Optimists have a tendency to see the best in people, sometimes to their own detriment. According to
Healthline, an individual’s calling to fix other peoples’ problems is referred to by psychologists as a savior
complex or white knight syndrome. A savior complex would explain the unlikely friendship between
Ashley Young and her friend who had a troubling past. Ashley often saw the best in people and believed
her positive influence could potentially set someone on the right path. Unfortunately, Ashley’s unwavering
loyalty put her in grave danger. After detectives made a gruesome discovery and conducted forensic
tests, a parent’s worst nightmare came true. Ashley Young had been murdered and the killer may have
had help from an unlikely source. To this day, Ashley’s family still do not have all the answers they crave
and deserve.
