Gypsy Rose Slams Nicholas Godejohn

But, not only did Gypsy Rose address her past, but she mentioned Nicholas Godejohn, her ex-boyfriend who helped murder her mother.
Nicholas and Gypsy first connected in 2012 through a Christian dating site. At the time, Gypsy was living under her mother Dee Dee’s strict and controlling care, isolated from the outside world and desperate for meaningful connection. What began as an innocent online relationship quickly escalated into something intense and deeply unconventional.
The two exchanged explicit messages and delved into dark sexual fantasies. Gypsy would later testify that Nicholas claimed to have multiple personalities, including one that was violent and dominant.

As their connection deepened, Gypsy began confiding in Nicholas about the emotional and physical abuse she endured at the hands of her mother. Feeling trapped and with nowhere else to turn, she leaned on Nicholas for support, eventually confiding her desire to escape. It was within this turbulent and emotionally charged relationship that the two began plotting Dee Dee’s murder.

Nicholas Godejohn Is ‘Deeply Disturbed’

In the Instagram message, not only did Gypsy call her ex “deeply disturbed,” but she leaked emails between Godejohn and an alleged pen pal girlfriend that he spoke to while behind bars.
“Nicholas P. Godejohn has a disturbing pattern targeting vulnerable women with past trauma and pulling them into his twisted fantasy world,” Gypsy wrote. “He presents himself as a dominant figure seeking control and obedience, manipulating these women under the guise of love and loyalty. These messages are between Nicholas and a woman named Dawn, his prison pen pal turned girlfriend.”

Gypsy alleges that Dawn was “the first in a string of woman he tried to trap in the same toxic cycle,” and now instead of using “Victor” as his dark dual personality, he now goes by the altar persona as “Nickoli” as he “commands a level of fear in the eyes of his lovers.”

Gypsy Rose Says Ex Nicholas Godejohn Is ‘On A Relentless Search’ For Control
According to the ex-con, Dawn “found the strength to walk away to save herself before she lost her identity,” like Gypsy “once did.”
“This isn’t new behavior. It existed before me, and it continued after me,” Gypsy claimed. “He is a man on a relentless search for his perfect “submissive someone” to carry out his darkest desires, even from behind bars, but the truth is more and more women are seeing through the mask and choosing to escape. They’re not his victims, they’re survivors.”
Gypsy then said that with Dawn’s permission, she can share prison messages to “give further insight into understanding the disturbing cycle of Nicholas’s toxic relationships” and to “bring awareness to domestic violence situations as this one is all too familiar.”
What Did The Emails Say?

One email from Nicholas to Dawn reads, in part:
“I already regret you meeting Nickoli because you had to meet him when he directed the rage towards you of all people, and I was trying to avoid that, and you just kept pushing me higher into anger, then I had to snap, which brought him out … I’m not smiling or frowning right now because I’m having trouble understanding why you like to argue so much all I can say is for a woman who says she loves me so much you wish to argue too much. That’s a turn off for me. … I was able to suppress Nickoli back in me, but it wasn’t easy. This sucks.”
Another email reads, in part:

“Do you really wanna go another round with me last time you p-ssed me off you thought I left even though we knew I wouldn’t but it seems like it’s the only way I can get through to you is when I snap and I hate yelling so if you wanna p-ss off this Inmate Master so be it!
You f-cking wanted to meet Nickoli that was a f-cking mistake because now he is f-cking out, you stupid f-cking b-tch. I have come out to make it clear f-cking clear that I’m not f-cking going anywhere. Neither is the f-cking violent side of Nick or anyone else who is within Nick so f-cking either get it in your f-cking head that we aren’t going anywhere, or so help you from God if I get my hands on you.”
A third email from Nicholas to Dawn reads:
“I know you still have to meet the rest of my personalities, but I still fear one of them being disrespectful to you in a sexual sense. I guess I’ll hope you can handle Taurean if he is ever to surface. He’s a sexual force to look out for. If you don’t, I fear what he’ll do to you, especially in a nonconsensual sense. I fear he’ll either overwhelm you or he’ll terrorize you sexually. … You’ll feel like his victim the entire time. Until then, I’ve tried to suppress him in the past. He’s too strong for me.”

Nicholas Godejohn Diagnosed With Autism Spectrum Disorder

Nicholas has yet to comment on the newly release emails, but in the past, he has commented on his relationship with Gypsy. “I was basically a good description of a recluse. I kept to myself. The reason I kept to myself is because I didn’t really have the social skills,” Godejohn said on “Killer Couples.”
According to a 2016 report by KY3, Nicholas has been diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder. Per the psychologist who spoke with KY3, after conducting two mental evaluations on Nicholas, he concluded that he is on the autism spectrum, has an IQ of 82, and functions at a level comparable to that of a 10-year-old.
