Who Pays?

[David1819]

I think it would be a coincidence too far.

Not really. His character traits made people too suspicious, its plausible

1% of the population are on the psychopathy spectrum

pschopaths are not neccasraly clever.

i guilty or innocent nothing about Jeremy behavior suggests hes that intelligent to me.

I agree Nugs!

[lookout]

Psychopaths can be innocent you know. If he is innocent it could well explain his behaviour after they died and why people suspected him.

For argument sake if he is innocent or guilty his behaviour at the funeral will be the same in either way as psychopaths have to play an act

Like the Philpotts ? Aww,now they were beside themselves ,on the tv news. And if you believed that,you'll believe anything !! Isn't that the way you're supposed to act,floods of tears,when you've lost all your family ?

Jeremy was damned if he did and damned if he didn't.!

How many of the 1% have all members of their family murdered?

[lookout]

I agree Nugs!

Who was it who said that surgeons,lawyers,judges,etc etc,were psychopaths because they are clever people ?

[David1819]

Very few. But if he is a psychopath his behaviour would be the same after the deaths weather guilty or not

Psycopathy does not make mean your clever. You can have smart psychopaths and dumb psychopaths

[Jane]

Psychopaths are clever,Jeremy wasn't. Who do you know who commits 5 murders and leaves tons of evidence ??

That depends on how you're defining "clever."

[Jane]

Who was it who said that surgeons,lawyers,judges,etc etc,were psychopaths because they are clever people ?

That has more to do with their desire to get to the top of their chosen tree and the risks they may be prepared to take in order to get there.

[lookout]

Nothing clever in knowing you'll be caught.

Didn't Jeremy think that way too-----------risks and all ?

I imagine he believed himself capable of outwitting the average plod. Certainly his whole attitude to authority suggested that to be the case, "That is for you to prove" being the piece de resistance.

I think that, as a case study, Jeremy would be a tantalizing prospect for many psychologists. The problem is that Jeremy's permission may have to be sought prior to such an examination. He may not be keen to be subjected to such. A refusal might be telling, though.
