You seem to have rather a morbid fascination about these sorts of people yourself.

I see a fascination with judging others.

Yes, she does doesn’t she?  Been at it since 2007, judging the McCanns and finding their every thought, word and deed wanting.  Mind you she is only one of many thousands over the years who have indulged in their favourite hobby of daily judging the McCanns online though fortunately the numbers have dwindled to a just small hardcore cabal.

I think they're more to be pitied than reviled. How does someone end up so far off track?

What a revealing post... The sceptic mind-set.
The paedophile rapist is to be pitied but not an ouce of pity for the McCanns.  Can you explain why that is.

I think she was referring to the women who fancy paedophile rapists rather than the paedophile rapists themselves.

There are also those who judged the McCanns and either found their every thought word and deed perfect or decided they could explain any anomalies. Unfortunately the explanations sometimes contradicted each other.

That is bullshit imo.  I don’t know anyone who has ever claimed the McCanns were perfect in every thought, word or deed.  As for contradicting themselves, you’ll never find two sceptics who can agree on an explanation for what they believe happened that night (apart from the curly wurly cuckoo brigade who have swallowed the CMOMM kool-aid, and even they don’t always appear to be in full accord).

I would say you’re a good example of someone with a morbid fascination about a murderer.  Luke Mitchell - how’s your mate’s campaign to get him out of jail coming along?

Do you call believing that someone has been the victim of a miscarriage of justice ‘morbid fascination’ ? If so I’m guilty as charged. Just as I was in turn widen I campaigned for Guildford Four, yes all four of them, the Birmingham Six, yes all six of them and Michael Stone who, incidentally, I wouldn’t like to meet in a dark alley but who, nonetheless, I think is innocent of the crime he has been convicted of.

As to Sandra Lean, I assume that’s who you’re talking about, she valiantly presses on. It often takes the victims of a miscarriage  of justice many years and multiple appeals to have their convictions overturned and I’ve no doubt Luke Mitchell’s will be the same. However that Luke has so many eminent experts on his side does bode well for his eventual exoneration.

Indeed.

I imagine there’s a lot of pearl clutching goes on.

I think G was talking about the individuals who communicate with imprisoned murderers not the murderers themselves.

  thanks for confirming.

Unlike of course all the pearl clutching that occurs every time the issue of the McCanns leaving their kids unattended you mean?  Actually that's less pearl-clutching, more flaming torches and pitchforks.

No problem.

I know it’s hard for you to not be swept along by the hysteria, you’re not alone. Thankfully though there are people who look behind the lazy headlines and actually do some research.
