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?
We are easy targets for them and they will go for us if we have money that they can get or targets for convictions. They are ABOVE the law are extremely difficult to complain about effectively. Even violent deaths in police custody, virtually never come to any blame on the police. Hillsborough they managed to avoid blame????
I've had a hard time from the Police 'gang' ever since I was a child. I am 47 now. They are abusers plain and simple.
No Aidie is not an administrator of the community page, but she is more competent than the copy and paste replies the real admins use that lead to nowhere other than "Error" or "page not found" .
Until I get my comment blocked, which I expect it will be.. Are you admin linked?

Have a read about my story - misreported with horrendous accusations that I was” soliciting murder” but they omit the fact that it was what I knew was a fake scam website trap, and that I had never seen or written anything they alleged. It was all over the mass media, on tv and internationally. I was found unanimously not guilty of that charge, but nearly died in an horrendous cycle accident 3 days before my trial was due. - I was unconscious for 2 weeks and am now major disabled.

I blame the police and media for causing my near death by their vigorous inappropriate actions to a vulnerable autistic computer nerd, but can’t get anywhere trying to fight the might of the police and media
Maybe , I know they are related anyway
How about this, a story reported by an austic man who died last year (he didn't commit suicide, but from what he said he felt that he had a hard time from the police):

Aren't Simon and Sasha Cousins?
No replies on here , but I did get a rapid reply from Prof Simon Baron Cohen (Ali Gs brother), who seems supportive and there may be international help with this idea.
