I wonder if she justifies her affair with Goodwin to herself by saying "My husband cheated on me, so I am owed a little happiness in life. I got my sister pregnant, doesn't that make me due for some love in life???" The rationalizations people make to be able to look at themselves in the mirror.... Clearly she feels she's owed it. She doesn't want to stop it even when his WIFE confronts her. That's pretty shameless.

Remember when Juliette got that emblem burnt into her back as a punishment? Everyone was very calm about the whole thing, including her. They were planning to kill her until Ben intervened. From that, I realized that this society is full of weird ideas that the "real" world doesn't allow. This was obviously not the first time something like this had happened and Juliette followed just as any other "OTHER" would do. She found out that Goodwin would be punished for their affair, and he was. Ben wanted Locke's father killed, etc. Lots of stuff happens on the island and they have their own way to deal with it and their own skewed sense of morality. If anything, I think Juliette is just a product of Ben's twisted world. She does have some entitlement issues and has done some things like secret experiments on her sister, but I don't think there is anything that outrageous that she has done beyond what other people do on the island.
