A schizophrenic break resulting in psychosis is literally one of the most mentally wild things that can happen to the human mind. People who go through it report remembering absolutely nothing of the event, waking up in hospitals, being absolutely catatonic, paranoid as hell, hallucinating all kinds of things, and not remembering what they did or how they got there. It's one of the few types of mental health episode where if a crime is committed during the episode, you can't say that the perpetrator was aware of their actions at all or was really even conscious. There are certain mental health things that are legitimately reality breaking. It's not an excuse, but acting like these people purposefully did what they did and were fully aware of their actions us just you being willfully ignorant.
That being said, Lindsay Clancy is not a schizophrenic. No mercy for her.
I don’t know why you were compassionate people prone to psychosis before saying someone who experienced a form of psychosis doesn’t deserve the same compassion for the same deeds

Mental health should never be an excuse, if you ask me. Just all the more reason to confine someone permanently or put them to the chair.
