Harsh.
More than lessening my view that JS has social anxiety, which I am totally guessing as an unqualified mental health armchair nobody. (To me, the anxiety is clear in the videos), the fact she doesn't actually call herself (or maybe she did, and that call has not been released), yet is there giving details while her support and family call makes my view even stronger for social anxiety, anxiety, ADHD, autism, and so on and so forth.
Let's take a trip to a scenario...
You are going to pick your daughter up from school, and you arrive, and no one is there. You maybe call her phone (or maybe not, if she already had seen it at home), you look around where she might be, with panic rising every minute, you call the school, no answering, they have all left. You email the teacher (this is a very normal way to speak with kids' teachers these days; my son's teacher uses a teacher-parent messaging app, and she replies within 10 minutes), and you anxiously wait for the teacher to respond while maybe checking the comic book store and your mum's place of work around the corner. The teacher responds, your child was never at school.
Now, if she has nothing to do with this, the panic would be immense. I would be in stress response mode, and I would be fighting to not hyper-ventilate. I would call my husband, friends, and family. I would call 911 myself, BUT I can see myself asking my husband, friend, or family member to call any consecutive times. Why? Because I know for sure that if the police had not turned up after 30 minutes, I would be in full panic mode and would need support.
But JS has been very consistent in taking backstage; if she is socially anxious, this makes sense.
But besides that, if she really did not know what a monster SS was, and he manipulated her from the start, I really do not think she deserves the callousness of "And if she didn’t know, well, she will have to live with that too."
Although this is a very true 'fact,' her daughter was murdered/died, and she found out the man she maybe thought was her 'rock' was a lying, manipulating bag of garbage, and had hurt her daughter underneath her nose...
We may not have fallen for his stories, but maybe she did. Can you imagine the torture she will be going through for the rest of her life?
I completely understand that I have a view which is in the minority on ws, and I understand the majority have another view, and that view could be the truth. My view could be wrong, and if it is, I will say I was wrong, but as it stands, JS has not been named a suspect and has not been indicated to be involved in SS's depraved acts or her daughter's disappearance or murder.
We know SS is a disgusting monster. We do not KNOW that of JS. IF or YET.
Very much JMO
ETA:
I have HAD general anxiety and recognize some of the behaviours.
