Jeremy Bamber: the Prelude, the Tragedy and the Aftermath

By the way they DO have a lower than normal pulse rate--------------they have to have in order not to be detected on a lie-detector. I 'm surprised you didn't pick up on that one.

You have just explained how it may have been possible for Jeremy to have passed the stress detection test.

That answer was expected. Quite the opposite of Caroline' s swift reply of a slow pulse not being a symptom of psychopathy. So in YOUR view,is it or isn't it ?

depends what you think psychopathy is,some people have a natural low pulse or have a defect which causes it,are they psychopaths

I'm talking healthy adults.

so healthy adults with a low pulse are psychopaths

The only possible answer I can give you is if it's true that ALL psychopaths have a low pulse rate then it must follow that all those with a low pulse rate COULD be psychopaths.

Some are because they can control their heart rate. Because Jeremy attends the gym to keep fit his heart rate would be naturally low anyway.

Sami, having told us that psychopaths have low pulses, lookout is hastening to assure us that the only reason Jeremy's is low is because he works out in a gym.

A fit athlete's resting pulse is about 40. Mine varies between 68/70.A normal pulse is between 60 and 100. It also depends on activity.
Because psychopaths are controlling they can control their pulse rate--------for obvious reasons.

None of which precludes Jeremy.

No they don't! The reason they can fool a POLYGRAPH, is because they don't get stressed under pressure. Nothing to do with a low blood pressure. I didn't pick up on it because it isn't true. Some will have lower blood pressure than others because they are fit, or in some cases ill.

Or is even true!
