If both inquests into her death says Emmett could not be charged with her murder, feelings about him aside, you have to accept that he didn't push her off the balcony.
As with most alcoholism related problems, this suggests an underlying mental health issue; this was already identified wrt he his wife r.e. bulimia. When you get two alcoholics living together, any relationship issues tend to be amplified.

There's a whiff alright but you wouldn't expect him to come out with "its a fair cop guv".

Might sound callous but she sounded like a total nightmare to live with. Used to be a big fan of Sean back when he was coming through. But he is as bad as Gobert. A total waste of space as a human. Both addicts. Met Emmett a few times over the years. My last memory of him is seeing him holding a pint and smoking a fag in the beer garden at Thruxton as the Superbikes were heading out to race. He was supposed to be riding in the race but had obviously talked himself out of bothering. 2007 or 2008 I think. That year he rode the Honda for a few rounds in what was a very humble setup. Some bloke got his autograph and was ecstatic muttering to his other half that Sean was a legend. I was looking at him and thinking what a bum he looked. Looked embarrassed to be there.
In hindsight, Colin Schiller made Sean appear more talented than he was. Back then it was harder to follow someone's career. If you read Fast Bikes in 1991 to 1997, you'd be forgiven for thinking Emmett was the fastest 500GP privateer and only bad luck and funds were preventing him from being the champion. He was though for 90% of his 500GP career handed his arse by other privateer riders. He was very rarely the fastest in that category.

Well Schiller used to play the look we are fast as gp rider Emmett angle all the time.
I also remember a time at BSB possibly Silverstone when Emmett was either pissed on Sunday morning or had punched someone and therefore wasn't racing. The public got and illness story.
