Queen Tammy and Crown Prince Sidney Were Anal-Expulsive Slobs

commentary by Patrick H. Moore

Although I’ve tortured myself trying to figure out why Queen Tammy and Crown Prince Sidney made the remarkably self-destructive decision to murder Heather Elvis simply because Tammy was jealous over Sidney “getting naked” with the attractive 20-year-old, up until recently, I really hadn’t made much headway other than the obvious – i.e., Tammy was insanely jealous because Heather was young and quite attractive whereas the old Queen (Disney-Mom Tammy) was “no spring chicken.”

This fact, and I think it is a fact, explains why Tammy was so angry, but it does not explain why they murdered the young thing (assuming they are guilty). Most everyone has been jealous at one time or another, and some of us have been extremely jealous – so jealous that we may even have engaged in revenge fantasies. However, no matter how badly we may have wanted to, we didn’t take the ultimate step; i.e., we didn’t whack the other man (or in this case the other woman).

So it was with a sense of relief that I came across an article by Tanya Root of the Sun News dated 3-12-14, in which she (perhaps unknowingly) provides the missing limk that leads the psychologically-inclined observer to jump up out of his or her bubble bath while exclaiming jubilantly, “EUREKA! I HAVE FOUND IT.”

Let us go then, you and I, and take a quick look at the information Ms. Root provides. She writes:

When police served search warrants last month at the home of two suspects (Tammy and Sidney Moorer) charged in the disappearance of Horry County resident Heather Elvis, officers found the home in disarray and multiple guns in the master bedroom where the entire family was sleeping, according to an incident report released Wednesday.

Police said the Moorers and their three children, ages 14, 12 and 8, were found to be sleeping in the downstairs master bedroom when police arrived the morning of Feb. 21, according to an incident report. Officers noted that one person was sleeping in an oversized chair, while others slept on a mattress at the foot of the bed and a mattress in the walk-in closet.

Aged, moldy food was found in the kitchen, trash on the countertops and floors, and the upstairs area, where the children’s bedrooms were located, was “in complete disarray nearly in an unlivable manner,” according to the report. Officers also noted hundreds of Legos scattered on the floor along with other toys, trash and clothing.

The backyard area also was covered in animal feces, according to police.

So why is this so important? Bear with me, we have one more important detail first.

In addition to the appalling mess, law enforcement also found two long guns leaning against the wall of the master bedroom, and pistol on the nightstand next to the bed.

Following the search of the residence and the arrest of the Queen and The Crown Prince, the children went to live with Tammy’s mother, Polly Caison.

On the day of the search, Horry County police took the couple into custody on obstruction of justice and exposure charges. Two days later, on Feb. 23, they were charged with kidnapping and then the following day the murder charges were added. Specifically, the kidnapping and murder warrants state that the Moorers murdered “Heather Elvis with malice, aforethought” at the Peachtree Boat Landing.

The indecent exposure arrest warrants state that the Moorers are accused of exposing themselves in public between Dec. 17 and Dec. 18 at 1325 Celebrity Circle and in Conway at Atlantic Avenue and Century Circle.

First, let me say flat-out that I’m astounded to discover that Tammy and Sidney were utter slobs. I mean, my god, isn’t Tammy thought of as the ultimate Disney Mom. Aren’t Disney Moms a bit like girl scout leaders, Sunday School teachers and other moral and ethical leaders of our society? Aren’t they supposed to be positive role models? Of course they are. And isn’t cleanliness next to godliness? That’s what I’ve always heard.

And although I can’t claim to be a Disney expert, I have been to Disneyland in California and Disney World in Orlando. The freakin’ places are incredibly well-organized. Slobs simply need not apply. Spit and polish like I’d rarely seen and may never see again (unless, of course, I go back for another go-round. Space Mountain here I come).

In Freudian psychology (not that I’m a Freudian), the famous Viennese psychoanalyst posits that the state of mind he calls the anal-expulsive personality, which is characterized by messy, wasteful, aggressive, and destructive and/or self-destructive behavior, stems from overly-lenient toilet training. That is, if the kid wants to smear his excrement on the walls, Mom says, “Go for it, Soul Sister.”

I once had a professor explain it like this: The anal-expulsive type is the guy who keeps his money crumpled up in a big wad in his pocket and when he wants to show off, he pulls the wad out and starts tossing it around like a drunken sailor.

In other words, anal-expulsive types lack self-control. They are aggressive and can’t keep their emotions in check. If they get mad, they get way too mad. This is apparently what happened with Tammy. She was so freakin’ jealous that she couldn’t see straight so instead of taking a chill pill, she talked Sidney into taking part in her evil scheme to kidnap and murder poor Heather, a supremely aggressive act that was destructive to Heather and to the Moorer children, and remarkably self-destructive to both Tammy and Sidney.

Thus, if we combine the Moorer’s environment, which based on the police search was incredibly messy and disorganized complete with a backyard full of dog feces, with their alleged aggressive actions – kidnapping and murdering Heather Elvis, we see that T & S encompass all of key qualities found in the anal-expulsive personality.

In other words, what set Tammy apart from a “normal” incredibly jealous woman whose husband is getting naked with a cute young thing, is the fact that based on her anal-expulsive personality, she simply could not control her emotions. Handcuffing Sidney to the bed at night for several months was not enough. Sending threatening messages to Heather was not enough. Nothing short of murdering her would do. And so Queen Tammy set the wheels in motion and Crown Prince Sidney apparently went along with her evil plan.

And just in case I haven’t convinced you yet and you’re not buying this theory, allow me to drag in the two indecent exposures on successive days as additional bits of evidence. At the time Sidney was 38, if I’m not mistaken, and Tammy was 42. Exposing yourself in public for sexual purposes as an allegedly mature adult is simply the grown-up version of smearing your poop on the walls during the toddler stage.
