Right, but to them a grimm would not be an easy victim. A conspicuous normal human would.

So in essence, no grimms were living under the radar because they were certainly out in the open where they could be attacked. Instead they acted the way any normal human would. They went out.....they took their chances.

She was orphaned and in the foster system when that happened, and from there she went into the mental health system and then became a nomadic homeless person. It was a perfect storm situation in which everyone who woged within her sight was someone who was already in the process of trying to attack her in some way or another.
In Grimm, the only woges T(heresa) Ruble saw pre-Monroe were two drunks who tried to rape her and another trying to rob her and who then attacked. Since she didn't understand Grimmness and wessenness, all she knew was that many/most of the monsters she met were trying to do her harm. Her experience was all monsters were bad monsters. When Monroe woged she knew better than to ask him to have tea and cake. The girl wasn't stupid. She probably thought Nick and Hank were also monsters.

That's the reason Nick introduced Trubel to Monroe and Rosalee. He did that, and Rosalee understood, specifically to show her that not all Wesen are bad. That went a long way into shaping her into the character we saw in the latter half of the show.

Those were the only woges she saw in that episode. Her first woge was someone who tried to molest her as a child. After that, she was attacked by an unknown number of wesen, and she kept a record of them in the notebook she was carrying. If you watch the scene in which Nick flips through that it, there were at least a half dozen different wesen faces in it.

Possibly. And if so there's no way of knowing how many instances of a person killing an attacker in self defense or unsolved homicide were grimms who killed attacking wesen...or vice versa.

1)renouncing his own happiness
2)to avoid seeing something and could alter it.
she did not know if he could get to see them and knew how a person can react to the unknown

Sorry brandon, my sarcasm about the therapy was aimed at some of the contributors, not at Trubel.
