Exactly.
I've known people who did bad things and didn't have mental health troubles.
I've known people who had mental health troubles and didn't do bad things.
I've known people who did bad things and had mental health troubles, but the two were not related.
And I've known people who did bad things partly
because of their mental health troubles.
The moral issue and the medical issue are two separate things. Good on Dube if he needed mental health treatment and is getting it. Very, very bad on Dube if he did what he is accused of doing. Neither one negates the other.
