Autistic people may be very intelligent and have an unusual focus of interest, which may involve computers, but this may not be understood by the police who may look to prosecute them for doing things which they never thought were criminal. It’s all to do with theory of mind (ToM), as we think differently, have different motives and are easy prey for the police, who can make our innocent actions sound criminal, even though we are unaware we have done anything wrong. We have a 10 times rate of suicide compared to neurotypicals and if convicted for innocent intentions , this will probably increase the suicide rate much more. We hate injustice for anyone and will fight hard to avoid it
So my theory is that inappropriate prosecution of autistic people often has a fatal outcome. Many of the Autistic spectrum people in prison are not only there inappropriately but have an extremely high suicide rate and the police should be aware of the harm they may be doing.
This has never been researched. I feel authorities may not want the results.
I’m looking for help to start this research, but getting nowhere.
any comments? Do you hate injustice more than most others?
Spergs are brutally honest a lot of them which ends in them being target to violence for mate crime and general abuse even by the police. As much as society wants us to believe the police are here to help you it's quite the opposite they just want to get you on anything to close the case.
When I tried to report Arson to my narrow boat, all I got was a rather sarky, "you have been a victim rather a lot haven't you? Mr xxxx".
When I last got burgled the police were more interested in whether the van on my drive was taxed, the time before, whilst they waited for me to get home, they went through my video collection hoping to find pornography!..
More of a bane, than a service really. Go and look up what percentage of robberies and assaults end up actually going to court in your area.. TBF a few good ones seem to slip through the selection process, AND it must be a pretty thankless job. But well paid and incredibly safe, statistically speaking, I am told.
