To all the sarky posters on here, there is no reason why the OP should not start a thread about an issue which is currently continuing to be reported on in the public domain, and which is thought-provoking in many respects for many people.
Now that I have had time to catch up on the news/discussion/debate/speculation, I have distilled my thoughts on this, and am reminded of a colleague of 20 years ago who had recently left teaching, having decided to train as a legal executive.
She was remarkably similar to LL in appearance, and used her 'innocent' blonde looks on any and all male colleagues and clients. It did not take me long to realise that she was very far from 'normal' psychologically, and she managed to cause a huge amount of discord in the organisation with her manipulative, bizarre and unnecessarily cruel behaviours.
She, like LL, was obsessed with social media, taking photos, giving non-elicited hugs, sending messages out of hours to colleagues, and seemingly seeking friends through work. She, like LL, constantly bemoaned her single status and questioned why so many men would 'chat me up then show me distain'. She had zero self-awareness.
Interestingly, she bemoaned the fact that her father and brother had both told her, bluntly, "No bloke will be interested in you until you stop behaving like a psycho".
Eventually, she was encouraged to leave the organisation (I won't specify why on this forum), after which the atmosphere returned to a different and healthier 'normal'.
I think what has shocked so many people about LL is her apparent 'girl next door' appearance and presentation, which also even seemed to deceive the hospital's managers (obviously inexcusably).
I agree with those who believe that structural racism is indicated here; if she had been from a different background, more attention would have been paid to clinical colleagues' concerns about her at an earlier stage.
