No, because like JtR he was more stealthy and caught her completely unaware from behind, giving her no time to respond.

Are you saying JTR cut their throats from behind, John ?

Circles not mazes.

This is how silly the knot argument is getting.

Draw any circumference. Mark a point outside of the circumference and call it the left side. Now pick a point anywhere on the circle. Can you spin the circle left OR right to end up with the point on the left side? If you can then you have falsified there is only one direction that causes the point/knot to end up on the left side rendering that argument redundant.

Facts

Her scarf was tight around her neck. That's strangulation but not manual. This will impact your vocal ability. Pressure to the voice box. Schwartz said she cried out but not very loudly. It doesn't take Einstein to figure out she was in the process of being silenced.

How was she in the process of being silenced? Are you arguing that BS man was trying to render Stride unconscious, and thereby silencing her, by repeatedly throwing her to the ground? If so, I can't see that it was a very successful strategy because, rather than being silenced, she screamed three times.

In my opinion strangulation or suffocation would have been more sensible silencing strategies than throwing someone to the ground.

Hold your hand out, knotty boy.

Hello John. Thanks.

Quite.

Cheers.

Let me guess BSman doesn't have the capacity to silence her so we can dismiss him but drop that same line of reasoning for the mystery assassin who is capable of all the above because his not drunk or something. Right?

No, because like JtR he was more stealthy and caught her completely unaware from behind, giving her no time to respond.
