Linguistically, we find the similarities where someone, for example, with sexual abuse on his or her mind, may reference, needlessly, water, in some form.
Off the charts was the Amanda Knox statement indicating guilty knowledge of a sexual homicide.
Yet it is the 'unnecessary' references to water that catch our attention. Since everyone washes their hands after using the bathroom (hey, I am holding out hope here, give me a break), it is utterly unnecessary for someone to say,
"I went to the bathroom, washed my hands, went to my office..."
The reference to water can even give a possible time of murder in a sexual homicide.
The following comes from the Bangor Daily News, regarding the statements made by the husband to the "Zumba" prostitute, who's lawyer claims was "tricked" (did he intend the pun?) into getting paid for sex acts as part of the State of Maine "investigation" process into strange sexual behaviors.
Her attorney is also rumored to be taking bids on the Throgs Neck Bridge, but that's another story.
Here is the article, his statements italicized, with Statement Analysis and commentary in bold type.
It makes one lose all faith in Zumba.
Is he telling the truth to the court? Or, is he seeking to make a portrayal of a victim like status in order to mitigate her sentence? What did he do with the money she brought home?

ALFRED, Maine — Jayson Trowbridge, who last year married now-convicted Kennebunk prostitute Alexis Wright, told the court he would often come home in the afternoon and find her dangerously close to harming herself out of shame over her actions.
“From the time we would depart each other’s arms until I would get the afternoon call or text message between 2 and 2:45 p.m., every day I anticipated that that morning would be the last time I would ever see Alexis,” Trowbridge wrote in a revealing single-spaced, two-plus-page testimony submitted to the court at Wright’s sentencing Friday morning.
Pronouns are instinctive and tell us what he thinks of the relationship. Next, we look for him to tell us what happened. This is done via pronoun use ("I") and past tense verbs:

“I would get calls from her in tears,” he continued. “I would go to her in the afternoon and once again, I would have to pull her from the shower similar to [our] morning routine. But this time I would pull her from a scalding hot shower and prevent her from scrubbing her body clean until she bled or burned.”
Note that he does not say this ever happened. When someone has a firm event in mind, and is truthful, a subject will say "I pulled her from the shower"; he does not.
No past tense means no commitment. If he cannot bring himself to commit, we cannot do it for him.
Regarding sexual abuse/sexual activity, note the use of "shower", "scalding hot shower" (with "shower" repeated, making it sensitive) and he does not say she ever burnt herself or bled.
"Would" is future/conditional tense and avoids directly committing to an activity, making this unreliable.
Commentary:
He seems to be attempting to portray himself as a caring husband, waiting patiently for his wife to be done having sex with other men, yet he does not commit to anything.

Wright was sentenced to 10 months in jail and ordered to pay $58,000 in fines and restitution Friday morning by Superior Court Justice Nancy Mills in accordance with a plea agreement reached with prosecutors two months ago. The York County district attorney’s office and state attorney general’s office agreed to drop 86 of the 106 charges against her and recommend the 10-month sentence in exchange for a plea of guilty to 20 misdemeanor charges related to prostitution and state tax evasion.
Among the charges dropped were dozens of counts of privacy invasion and welfare fraud.
During Friday morning’s sentencing hearing, Wright and her attorney, Sarah Churchill, told the court that Wright’s history of being sexually abused by her father as a child made her vulnerable to manipulation at the hands of Thomaston insurance broker Mark Strong Sr., who convinced her to engage in prostitution under the guise that she was helping a government investigation into “sexual deviants.”
Strong spent 15 days of a 20-day sentence in jail for 13 counts of promotion of prostitution-related charges in late March and early April. He was convicted of the crimes by a jury in early March.
Trowbridge, who began dating Wright in 2007, said he learned about her “double life” as a prostitute in April 2011. Wright had a son in 2005 from a previous relationship.
“[W]hen the cameras were off and there wasn’t anyone present to capture the true essence of Alexis Wright, Alexis would start her day around 5:30 a.m., waking up to take a shower first thing in the morning,” Trowbridge wrote. “I would give her about 20 minutes before I would enter the bathroom. Ten minutes to allow her to shower and an additional 10 minutes for crying.”
Note that she has a "true" essence, and not just an "essence" indicating a knowledge of the deceptive lifestyle.
If you were going to talk about your spouse, would you associate the "true essence" with taking a shower as starting her day? This is what is on his mind, washing, which is why it is in his statement. We can talk about someone's "true" essence (which indicates deception) and begin the day waking up, having coffee, or go right into the personality. He chooses her showering instead. This indicates a linguistic connection with the sexual activity at play in the statement.
Note again, the use of the verb "would" rather than "did", and note, again, the reference to water with "shower."
We cannot say that this ever happened because he does not say it happened.
What does this do to his credibility?
Despite the hidden prostitution operation, Trowbridge wrote that Wright continued to be “an extraordinary mother” and that she plans on going back to school to get a master’s degree after she’s released from jail.
Note "extraordinary mother" high praise. It is likely that the child's father likely has said otherwise.

“I have lost a great deal of respect from many and I’ve also lost a great deal of friends that can’t fathom the reason why I stood by my wife,” he wrote. “I stand by Alexis’ side because I knew if I was to have walked away, she would have been left to the wolves without a soul to turn to.
Note "have lost" instead of "lost", indicates the loss of respect continues. It may suggest that the losing of respect as ongoing because he is not truthful here, and profited financially from his wife's illegal activities.
Note "because" shows the need to explain why, making it very sensitive to him. It may be that he is acutely aware that he is not believed.

“I’ve never asked her to say ‘sorry’ but she does all the time,” Trowbridge continued. “I will never accept her apology because I feel that she doesn’t owe me one. I stood by my wife when I first discovered her nightmare and I continue to stand by her today. The fact that I chose to marry her after learning of her situation isn’t simply based on love. It is a testament to the true person she is and the real person I know. My vow of marriage was a choice to stand up for her when she couldn’t find the strength to stand up for herself.”
Note the highest level of sensitivity (blue) is noted again in his statement. This is in regards to not walking away nor accepting an apology. What makes this area of his statement of the highest sensitivity? The reader should be on alert for deception in this portion of the story, even after seeing his refusal to say what happened before this.
Note the reference to her as a "person" (gender neutral) and not "woman" (gender specific). Note the difference from "person" to "real person"
Note that he refers to prostitution as "her situation"
Note how often the word "stand" (body posture, yet phrase) is used here, making it sensitive and tense.
It may cause readers to wonder if those who know him do not believe him, and think that he married her for profit.
Conclusion:
Unreliable statement.
His statement is deemed "unreliable" and his defense of her is highly sensitive suggesting that he is not sincere in his statement to the court.
She was sentenced to 10 months. Will we see a book deal or Made-for TV cheesy movie deal?
