I am inclined to agree with that.
It's one of those impossible dichotomies I keep mentioning.
DH cannot be, on the one hand, "cunning as a s-h rat!" and able to maintain a tissue of lies to convince people Karlie and Khandalyce are alive,
while on the other hand, be too stupid not to slip a dead woman's card out of his wallet and into the car window gap when he sees the police pull over next to him, or destroy her belongings.
Either he is dumb, or he is smart, but not both IMO.
It doesn't have to be a question of dumb or smart - when there is the presence of psychosis and/or drugs - there is generally a bit of both. What is always present is the motivation/need to get money to get High.
IMO he kept things with "perceived" value.
For example: Kandalyce was a clean skin. Could have got all the way to 18 without a criminal record or a photograph on authority's records.
How much would that have been worth on the black market or even just another round of welfare fraud with a new accomplice?
Fixating on "dichotomies" suggests you are viewing this from a black/white perspective. I suggest that just like life on this planet and every human personality in it - nothing is black and white.
Actions that are perceived as "dumb" can sit right alongside "smart" actions. It depends on skill set, motivation, learnt experience, situational influence, sobriety and on and on and on.
On any given day I can have moments of brilliance right alongside stupid choices - to err is human.
From the very scant information we have including Facebook pages (which are dubious indications of personality at the best of times) it is impossible to make an assessment on DH IQ and personality. And perhaps now that I get to this point that's what you are really trying to say?
From your natural position of innocent until proven guilty - your bias is to seek the inconsistencies in the angry judgement calls being made and fair enough but...
I think at this point in time until the full information comes to hand and DJH has his day in court - you'll be running exhaustingly in circles. The vast majority of us no doubt have the highest faith and loyalty to LE and a lot of anger - the judgement calls will keep coming - you'll need a lot of energy JaneSA!!! But somehow I think you are up for the challenge [emoji1]
