real life crime and murder : Most liked Posts

This will be a tough watch:


I have followed a many and varied range of investigations and trials over my adult life. But very few have hit me as hard as this case. When I try to imagine the fear she would have felt when realised that she had been tricked into his car, as he drove out of London and down to Kent - it can still move me to tears. I have a visceral hate for him.

Is this the one where she’d been to the local shop for nappies or something?

She wasn’t out for nappies. She had been out at her blokes then popped to Sainsbury’s on way back and was in their for over an hour. She got back to our road at 8.30 and just lit up a fag with 2 small bags of shopping and didn’t look upset or nothing.
Then in panic she said the neighbor was in their babysitting. They wasn’t she’d left them. She was on cctv in Sainsbury’s entering and leaving. And I think they had her on the neighbours ring doorbell as well leaving about 6.30 or something. All in all she was out for about 2 hours.
One of our neighbours had a breakdown over it all. Just such a sad situation. We all thought she’d got away with it, because it had been so long.

I had a friend who had PNP. She didn't harm her child but the impact was so severe when she found herself pregnant a few years later she took her own life. Really we had lost her years before. She had "recovered" but she was a pale imitation of the woman she had been, it completely destroyed everything that made her her. Its an absolutely horrific condition and I wouldn't wish it on anyone. I can't feel angry at this woman, just desperately sad that the system that needs to be there to support these mothers isn't available. This could have been prevented.

Jesus wept, a lot of misandry on hereYes men commit crimes against women but it's a small minority and men are more likely to be actual victims of violent crime. It's just that when a woman is killed, it is far more likely to receive media attention, particularly if the victim is photogenic. Get a sense of perspective, will ya!

This post is not surprising given you have been ‘laughing’ at many of the posts on here.

It’s also not just about being killed - rape, domestic violence, sexual assaults, sexual harassment.

1 in 4 women have been raped or sexually abused as an adult - how have a small minority of men managed to get round us all. Or perhaps there are not as many good men as you think.

Just to add that many women who are killed by a man have also had to endure domestic violence and / or rape prior to being killed.

I think many people are just appalled they all buggered off to dinner to wine and dine and left their very young children not looked after. Myself included - eat earlier with the kids or one adult looks after the sleeping kids.. or get a takeaway!

And, just to add to that, don't take your children on holiday if you plan to dump them in a kid's club all day so you can play tennis and then spend your evenings drinking with your friends. And continue to leave them alone even when the oldest one asks you why you didn't come to them when they were crying the night before.

And then have the absolute arrogance to never apologise for it either.

I cannot get my head around how utterly appalling this is. Swaddled too tightly, placed face-down on a bean bag, and a tight harness to hold her in position and a blanket on top. Her cries went ignored for 1hr 37 minutes. The poor parents, thinking they were leaving their precious child in a place of safety. Surely any sensible adult could see that doing this would be a recipe for disaster - let alone a registered childcare provider.

Genevieve was 9 months old, so I'm guessing mum had only just gone back to work. She must have had so much guilt and worry over leaving her

They should have been allowed to do whatever the hell they wanted without being murdered.

I'm sorry but I absolutely hate this saying.
Sabina was completely where she should have been. Walking down the road to meet her friend.
He's a fucking monster.

Not sure if been posted but Wayne Couzens having “banter “ with other officers. Nothing will ever convince me that the Met are NOT institutionally racist and misogynist . It’s also a profession that attracts abusive men .

Don’t disagree we all need to take precautions when it comes to unfamiliar or unknown men and keeping safe. I was responding about not all men in relation to a comment further up the thread that said the reason is “men hate women” and a few posters discussing why men are so awful and someone used Hitler as an example. I was simply pointing out there are many women just as culpable for horrific actions and crimes as well.

With all due respect to you and your point cause I do understand what youre saying but I truly don't care. I don't care that not all men hate women. I don't care that there are lovely men in the world. I and fellow women (you included) have to live in fear and I've had a fucking enough of it. All you do by saying "not all men" is deflect from the actual issue which is that women are constantly victims to the nasty men and the lovely men need to start listening and acting. I am sick to death of people saying "not all men" every time something like this happens. It was this man! It is other men. It's is still fucking men! You don't get a pass for being a lovely man. You are SUPPOSED TO BE a lovely man! That is not a standard to reach to! You don't get a pat on the back and a cookie for not abusing women.

Yes there are a women who capable of horrific things but men don't live in fear of women like women do of men. Men don't panic if they encounter a woman late in the night for fear of being attacked. Men won't go forward fearing being stopped by a sole woman police officer. It is not the same thing. It is not the same thing. It is not the same thing. It is not the same thing!!!!!!!

just read about this case…
So removed from parents age 3.
Raped by a piece of scum, then a year later sexually assaulted and killed by her own brother, then sexually assaulted even after death.
Its says she was living in a children’s home at the time she was murdered.
Its like she didn’t matter, no one gave a flying fuck about her, she never stood a chance.
Sorry this has just really got to me.

Poor poor darling girl. Surely no one can hurt you now.

Hello - just need to vent about sycamore gap - I'm absolutely gutted, and yes, i know it's only a tree but I'm pretty devastated too. I walked 23 miles along Hadrian's wall in 2018 for breast cancer charity - it was one if the best days of my life. The camaraderie, laughs, joy etc. It was hard but it was absolutely worth it. We couldn't wait to get to sycamore gap, it was about half way. We stopped and took photos and sat near by. It was beautiful and peaceful, gave a bit of shade on a hot day.
When we drive from where i live to Newcastle, the tree is there in the dip come rain or shine.
I just took it for granted.
Honestly, i know this is probably a massive over-reaction but I'm just so incredibly angry and pissed off.
Little scrote that did this needs locking up.
Little fucker (sorry not sorry).
Hope they can manage to grow a new tree from it or make something special to honour it from the wood.
UGH!!!

Wow they had more ‘respect’ for the actual horrific murderer Scarlett Blake by not even mentioning the fact he was actually a man that identified as a woman. Can’t hurt his feelings now!

But Emma, the female victim of murder, doesn’t even get the decency of her name in the headlines. Just reduced to ‘sex worker’. It’s absolutely disgusting the way women are treated.

A response on social media to this case when someone posted ‘More male violence toward women, when will it stop?’

Not all men but how are we supposed to know which ones “aren’t”?

Click to expand...

exactly this!

as someone trying to date at the moment (ick) meeting a man for the first time means meeting in a neutral location, not going to his house or letting him know where i live until a few dates in, making sure a friend knows where i am, sending her photos from his facebook or dating profile like “this is who i’m with” etc.

the last date i went on i casually mentioned this and the guy laughed and said wow i haven’t done any of that and i thought no, you probably haven’t. why would you? and he still tried to convince me to go home with him and jokingly asked me for my address so he could tell the taxi driver on my behalf. joke on mate.

i’m done with the whole not all men argument tbh. i know it’s not all men, it statistically cannot be all men, but it’s a heck of a lot of them. and i’m over people saying oh they’re not all like that! when we read of yet another woman being killed by a man who felt he deserved something from her.

BaxterBillions said:

Because a lot of it was quite ridculous. "God, I hate men". If it was a male posting "God, I hate women" because a woman commited a heinous crime, they'd be called sexist, incel, misogynist, etc, etc. To me, posters like that and incels are two cheeks of the same arse and don't take them seriously.

When women start killing men every 2 days in the UK we can have that conversation, but they don’t, educate yourself about femicide and stop behaving like an incel trying to appeal to men because to be quite frank it’s concerning and if anyone’s giving incel vibes it’s you hope you get the attention you’re wanting somewhere!

This was my friend in school. She was lovely. She tried so many times to get him to leave her alone. X

It seems like every day a woman dies because a man can’t take no for an answer. I’m sorry for your loss.

Her name is Emma Caldwell - shameful reporting from SKY

As a friend of Alex… I’m just so glad he has been found guilty and I hope he gets a whole life tariff. If it wasn’t for her, they would never have gotten this conviction. And seeing ‘sex worker’ in the title of most articles…both her and Leah were so much more than that. Women who were mothers and daughters and friends and sisters and who had dreams and ambitions.

One thing that really fucks me off with reporting like that is when they call it porn, it's not porn because the ones involved haven't given/can't give consent. The same when they call it child porn. A child can't be a willing participant in porn so why do they not call it what it is, which is child abuse or animal abuse. I feel like it downplays the seriousness of it somehow. If that makes any sense haha
