I have not forgiven Met officers who photographed dead daughters, mother says

“It’s one of those things that people might not understand. The majority of the police are good people. I’m invited all over the country by different constabularies to come and talk to them about my experience,” she said.
8 of you don’t understand sarcasm
22 do tho, which is nice. ;)
We don't have to agree with her.
I do, though
We don't have to doesn't mean we can't.
Fuck the police
Wait you forgave the killer that quickly?
forgiveness is often for yourself, not the third party.
It doesn't change anything for the killer to be forgiven in your mind, but it changes something in your mind to forgive.
The killer was pretty obviously insane. He was making a sacrifice to a demon which he thought would allow him to win a lottery. He's also in jail for life.
I can see it could be harder to forgive someone with no real excuse who just violated your dead daughters' privacy for clout.
Forgiveness doesn't necessarily mean you're cool with it and you're ok now. In buddhism it is taught that suffering caused by someone creates a debt. You owe the people who made you suffer a restitution for that debt. So in essence, you owe justice or suffering to the killer. But so long as you are trying to collect on that debt, you are suffering the whole time. To forgive is to let go of that debt. You're not ok with it, you just let yourself stop suffering for that collection (though the suffering of the person missing still remains).
I think this is what she meant. She managed to let go of collecting that debt faster for the actual murder than the disrespect of the police officers. Maybe because of the position of authority of the police or the circumstances of the murder.
What the fuck is wrong with people
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Mina Smallman, the mother of two women murdered in a London park, has forgiven their killer but not the two Metropolitan police officers who took and shared photos of their bodies, she said.
Bibaa Henry and Nicole Smallman were reported missing on 6 June 2020, the day before friends discovered their bodies in a park in Wembley, north London, after organising their own search party.
Smallman told BBC Radio 4’s Today programme she had forgiven her daughter’s killer, Danyal Hussein, but not Jaffer and Lewis.
I feel really honoured to meet the parents and the women’s groups who are supporting victims, survivors of male aggression.
Smallman is in touch with the families of other women murdered by men, including Sarah Everard’s mother, Susan.
This month, Carol Hunt, 61, and two of her daughters, Hannah, 28, and Louise, 25, were found injured in their home in Bushey, Hertfordshire, and died shortly afterwards.

This summary is completely incomprehensible
