No you asked people not to judge LC on one clip. In the same breath you asked everyone to judge PC.

In what way did I ask everyone to judge PC? You need to be clear.

To say no one checks out on a family activity for certain periods is disingenuous and only used to suit a narrative.

It was a video used by the prosecution.

Are you suggesting that the prosecution used this clip to suit the narrative?

Understand that the video may well show that Lindsay Clancy was an engaging mother with seemingly no visible signs of psychosis, but the opposite effect is immediate.

It clearly shows how unsupported she was.

Here is where you asked us to see how unsupported she was. I don’t think it’s that difficult for you to see but hopefully your own words will make it more clear.

Or did you mean something completely different?

Do I think the prosecution used evidence for their own narrative. Yes. Yes I do. Do I think to suit your narrative. No. No I don’t.

It clearly shows how unsupported she was. taken from your previous post.

one snapshot moment, and you’re saying it’s showing she was unsupported. How unsupported? In that instant? The split second of that video? A couple of minutes? What happened before and after the video was shot? Oh, wait, nobody knows, and yet you’ve made a judgement of his character based on that moment.

Based on that moment she on the other hand was showing as a devoted, normal, sane mother. No psychosis or mental illness anywhere. Therefore as much as he was an unsupportive mother she was clearly a coldblodded murderer as there was no sign of mental illness there.

Gosh its incredible how you can judge someones state of mind from an image. You must be a multimillionaire with this gift and in such high demand.

Now, stop talking out of your arse.
Depression, anxiety, and other mental conditions don't come with a highviz jacket. Psychosis develops silently and quickly. Someone can be perfectly fine one day, and then the next they believe their skin is crawling, their partner is trying to kill them or their is a radio in their brain telling them there will be a nuclear apocalypse.

The short video shows a women single handedly managing 3 children whilst her male partner stands by, meters away, not doing anything to help ease her burder. It's a snapshot in time, doesn't tell us what she was thinking or feeling, but it paints a very damming picture of their relationship at that moment in time.

I never said I was judging her on that basis. I made the comparison on the basis of the previous poster who has used that one clip to judge that PC was clearly unsupportive and that she was clearly unsupportive.

That clip doesn’t show that any more than it shows she isn’t mentally ill. But posters are using that video clip to judge him whereas some could judge her on the same basis.

It just doesn’t work like that.

My comparison was illustrative.
