What narrative? I am simply saying that the narrative that Bamber and his supporters are projecting is not consistent with someone diagnosed as schizophrenic. She was not bipolar (manic depression) and therefore not subjected to extreme mood swings. She did not have multiple personality disorder and so did not shift between different personas. She was not having a nervous breakdown (neurosis) and so could not snap out of her mental state which was organic in nature. She was certainly not a psychopath which is not even associated with mental illness as a psychopath is aware of the consequences of their actions and is manipulative and capable of planning in detail. Schizophrenia is described as a split personality disorder because the personality is split from reality not because there two personalities. It is the narrative that is being proposed by Bamber and his supporters which does not fit in with he psychotic illness which was being controlled by injections of medication anyway and so could not be avoided. Now you say ritualistic cleansing was not beyond her. Maybe Bamber described her as vacant because he felt that would portray her as zombie like. Sheila was like The Walking Dead.I think you are emotively projecting your own personal narrative on the events. Why would Bamber describe her in terms similar to vacant, if he wanted to frame her? He could have instead portrayed her as being angry, upset, in a rage etc. Instead, he simply told the truth. The rifle is easy to load, with there being some minor difficulty with last bullet. In reality, she wouldn't need to fully load the rifle. It's not a necessity. The victims with headshots were more than likely incapacitated / stationary when they received them. You are simply pedalling a false narrative that a sharp shooter was involved. If the shots are close range and in an enclosed space then no wonder they hit their target. I suspect Sheila was also familiar with concept of aiming a rifle, as we all are. It's an instinctive action upon picking up a gun to close one eye and stare down the barrel. Even if not every single head shot wasn't fired at completely stationary targets, one accurate head shot to a more mobile target (let's say for example down the stairs at Nevill) doesn't make her an Olympic sharp shooter. Re the ritual washing I haven't argued for that. I do not believe Sheila was clean as is made out. Though I don't see why or how she would be prevented from washing if she chose to do so.
Quite frankly if there is anyone bonkers it is Bamber and his supporters who support such a ridiculous scenario.
