Admitting I may have misunderstood on how the law applies to the mother's jailing has nothing to do with my other two arguments.
There's frankly little point in digging through an article I do not trust to begin with, it's a waste of time. You can give it your trust if you want, but I have no strong reason to.
So your two paragraphs of pontificating have nothing to do with what's in the article?
I guess you're just here to say "I believe judges are always good at their jobs and never make mistakes"?
No, I am definitely complaining about the article's portrayal of the therapy.
You should reread my comment, which specifically said the judge was being derelict in his duty if he wasn't taking a broader context into account.
I do understand that reading comprehension isn't the strongest point of the internet ragebait-swallowing community. Why you all are so eager is a little beyond me though. Ultimately you should be remembering the profit-driven priorities of media companies, and how their models often revolve around triggering people's emotions.
Perhaps I did misread something. I'm not going to dig through it again to confirm, but I can acknowledge I may have misunderstood.
Fair enough, at least you can admit it.
