Why is Sam not as equally condemned for her domestic violence as Jim?

I don't know anything about this.
Likewise, why isn't she fawned upon and adored on this forum like Jim is?
She was alleged to have hit Joey Essex on a couple of occasions.
Apparently Sam slapped Joey Essex, and Jim elbowed and punched ex wife in the face and threw her down the stairs. I think this may also answer the OP's original question.
Jim does in his autobiography. This is the first I'm hearing of Sam.
She also threatened Amy Willerton, told her not to set foot in Essex or something
Not a very pleasant person from what I hear
Shocking.:o
I knew about Jim.
Wasn't he in the midst of alcoholism at the time? Whlst this doesn't condone what he did it does at least explain a little.
Had a brother-in-Law like this - used to be nasty when pissed but lovely when he hadn't touched a drop.
Sad really.
Unless it was admitted from their own mouths I would be careful what you say!!! "I think"!!!!
That's just as bad as what Dippy said!!
The reason I asked if either had admitted is that I understood Joey's family made much more serious allegations than the slap and push she admitted on camera.
Ah but isn;t this merely excusing someone for a milder form of domestic violence when in fact I believe all domestic violence should be condemned equally. When you start to make allowances, effectively because 'other people have done worse' it's a slippery slope for me.
Should Evander be let off punching a horse as he didn't mutilate or torture it to death like other people have done in the past? After all, a right hook from the champ is pretty mild in comparison right so probably not worth condemning?
(before I get slated I am in no way condoning what Holyfield did, just trying to illustrate my point).
I don't condone it either, but this was the first thing that went through my mind
And not that you'd know it from the media, women are about as likely to be perpetrators as men. And what they may lack in strength they make up for in the way most men will not strike a woman who is attacking them, both because they know they should not, and also if the police do get called, guess who always gets carted off in handcuffs? And also women who are violent often just use a weapon to even the score. Throw a plate, stab, whack to the head with a heavy ashtray - or maybe boiling water like my brothers ex-wife poured over him while he was sleeping. If Sam has a history of DV I am a bit appalled this is the first i've heard about it, frankly. Not that I knew who the hell she was before going in the house....

This isn't acceptable
They really are all fake in there. Hope Ollie keeps away.
Whyever are you bringing this kind of ultra-violence into the discussion? Sam is accused of slapping, not using a weapon or boiling water. She doesn't 'have a history of DV'; your post is no better than Joey's tiresome cousin's interview, full of innuendo and irrelevance.
