Not to start the debate up again, but to expand a bit on why I believe it's very rare to actually have a situation where you should expect unjustified situations...

Taking your example of somebody being highly emotional, or even mentally unstable. If you get into saying something like, "Well, this person is crazy, so expect X reaction," you're basically getting into justifying it by going "Well, they're crazy" in the first place. If you're expecting something unjustified because of X, well... 9 times out of 10, X is the justification to begin with. They're crazy, they're emotional, they're young, and so on. There's a reason stuff like that shows up in defense of actions. Once you get into the action of expecting something, you're already justifying why it's right to expect that.

Now, you can justify something without AGREEING with it, to be fair. Justifying and agreeing are two different things, but that's a whole different discussion.
