BBC charity removes promo video featuring Southport murder accused

Axel Rudakubana appeared, aged 11, as Doctor Who character in 2018 advert for BBC Children in Need

What part ?

The press went with Lucy Letby as a child and Kyle as a happy man.

Having opportunities to a successful life doesn’t stop male violence.

If he has aspd (sociopath/psychopath in old terms) then he could easily have hidden the traits in passing interactions and worsened with age.
Paranoid schizophrenia is a possibility but seems unlikely due to the specific targeted group.
The most likely option in my opinion is an incel style copycat targeting younger victims as its easier than his own age. It would match with choosing the Taylor swift workshop for a certain demographic of what he may have viewed as "popular" girls too.

Also, what’s your evidence to support what you’re claiming about victims of violence perpetrated by mentally ill people?

I was wondering about that too.
I’ve seen that claim being made several times during the last week, that when mentally ill people (specially men) attack or murder someone, it’s people who are weaker than them.
I wonder if that’s supported by evidence though? Men do attack and kill men too.

My niece and nephew are both autistic. Neither of them are child killers.

The dance and yoga place he entered was just over the way from a gym full of bodybuilders.

Guess which one he chose

Autism is not associated with a higher rate of violent crime than the general population.
ADHD is linked to slightly higher frequency of violent crimes, but not autism.

That surely depends on what his defence team decides.

After her conviction? And what’s the detail of the article? Talking about her background?

we arent there yet with this case.

and yes, Kyle Clifford…..as a grown man. No one was talking about whether he was smiling or not.

I said it’s very common if you only see photos of someone as a happy, innocent looking child it’s normal to wonder what happened and and not necessarily because he has a ‘funny name’ or is black.

Your argument of Lucy Lethby photos of her as a child after conviction after her adult photo being all over, is irrelevant to that point. Photos of Kyle Clifford as a grown man, is also irrelevant to that point.

In the absence of any evidence, it seems wholly pointless to speculate. Why can't people be satisfied with: we don't know at this stage??

I saw a more up to date photo of him on tik tok and that little boy has long gone. He looked scarily wild.
IF and we don't know anything about it he is mentally ill, this is the kind of thing paranoid schizophrenics often do. They hear frightening voices and often target someone who they think is possessed by the devil or whatever.
But there is no point speculating because we have no idea.
When I worked on psychiatric the unmedicated PS's scared me more than anyone else.

I agree (ADHD sufferer here), it makes you more "impulsive", maybe throw a punch in a "heated moment" as we're not very good at dealing with negative emotions (I've never thrown one myself but I've seen it with ADHD sufferers), it definitely doesn't make you go to a kindergarten and murder a few random strangers, that for sure.

Is it not really appalling that people are correlating autism with multi-murdering of little girls? It's not a symptom of the diagnosis.

The speculation on here is horrific

Curiosity and attempting to understand other humans thoughts and actions is a natural part of what makes humans so sociable.
It's actually quite unusual for someone not to have any interest in other people's actions and thoughts, especially in situations where the behaviour or thoughts are very abnormal. Its part of why soaps depicting dramatic interactions and people's behaviour during those, reality shows and true crime documentaries get so much interest.

You really don't know much about psychotic behaviour, do you.

Exactly, because people with psychotic behaviour would never get a taxi 🙄

His carers were told not to say no to things for fear of triggering a meltdown,

This does seem to be thought of as best practice.

Is it?

My son is autistic and he isn't either. It does nobody any favours though if we ignore the fact that neurodiverse people are disproportionately represented in prison populations. Imo that doesn't show that neurodiverse people are evil or uncaring, it shows that there is a failure in society to meet their needs. Failures in the education system to support them through, failures in the mental health system that won't treat autistic people who also have mental health issues, failures at supporting them into employment and on the list goes. Supporting people into a better quality of life reduces criminality. Talking about this shouldn't be about demonising neurodiverse people but helping them.

This article here talks about neurodiverse people within the prison system and estimates that up to half of the UKs prison population is

@PommelHoss Psychosis is a possible explanation, not necessarily the correct one.

. My son was told that all of his issues were down to autism. No one wanted to know, it was only after he tried to kill himself that anyone thought he had a mental health issue. And then we had to wait for the diagnosis. There are professionals who think that having 1 illness means that no other illnesses are present.

Not by any means, but this was not a crime of passion, money or greed, these girls where random strangers to him and because the whole thing is so bizarre we tend to think it may be a psychotic breakdown. Again, we have no idea what was going inside his little ill head so it's all speculation. I'm sure the kid is being evaluated left and right at this moment ny psychiatrists, checking his GP records, police searching his internet history, school, family history etc... while trying to figure out what was wrong with him.

For example. People with schizophrenia or paranoid schizophrenic can be quite cunning, plan and execute their plan and can target specific group/individual. It all depends on their condition and their specific type of delusion/hallucinations. (not saying that’s what he had specifically)

My first boyfriend was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia during our relationship. He was 17.

A happy load back kid who started sleeping with knives under his pillow. Accused me of stealing from his parents. Then attacked me one night.

He is medicated now and gets the shots for it. For years though his parents looked after him and he was in and out of hospital.

It's not as simple as saying they should get help and take their meds. They are scared they are being poisoned. They are terrified.

I have OCD, cptsd, and disassociation disorder. I am capable of asking for help when needed. My ex boyfriend is not.
