It’s hard to tell with this reporting who has taken these photos. If Preston is between JV’s legs (🤢) then has JMF taken the pic? It’s like they thought photographing the aftermath of their attacks (the fluid drool/struggling for breath) was a less risky memento from their attacks.
I don’t know why but the forcing his eyelid open to look at his eyes rolling back has particularly upset me. You panic if you’ve ever accidentally shocked or startled your baby 💔 or you put them in the swings and actually they cry or get upset so you either gently reassure and go slowly or you whip them out altogether. To spin him so forcefully that his eyes roll back and then to force them open to look at that and film it - absolute abject cruelty. It’s incomprehensible.
I keep going back to the word "depraved" 😡
They tortured him every way possible - physically, psychologically and sexually 😡
I really believe that this case is going to turn out to be the worst case ever 😔 of child cruelty and murder 😔

There must be an inquiry afterwards and it must must must bring about change!!!
We all hope for that, but how many times have we heard ‘lessons will be learned’.

I used to work with vulnerable young children, and we had mandatory safe guarding training every year. We were told to always, always, place the child’s wellbeing first. Ask the awkward questions, think the unthinkable.
I’m sure this same training is repeated in every school, hospital, nursery etc.
Yet every year there are more awful cases to ‘learn from’ about babies/children who have been neglected/abused/tortured in the very place they should feel safe and loved :cry:

I had never even heard of this case until a week a go. BNE led me to this thread.

I listened to the podcast today and was honestly distraught.

Agree with all of you and what you’re saying…. I feel so sorry for the jury, they must not be able to sleep at night, but it’s nothing compared to what little Preston went through.

What’s BNE?

I wonder if the short breaks the live reporting keeps saying are happening are because people are getting upset (completely understandably)

JV’s defence KC was the prosecuting KC in the Lucy Letby trial. His name is Nicholas Edwards, he was known for his “Big Nick Energy” ON THE LL thread, for his intellect and cutting comments, this was shortened to BNE by the tattlers on the LL thread. He was a force of a prosecutor. In BNE I trust that JV will not be able to make any appeals on the basis of being inadequately represented in court. BNE is top of the field in KC circles, JV has one of the very best representing him.

Nick Johnson KC was the prosecution barrister in the Lucy Letby trial. “BNE” was a nickname people used for him there. Apologies, I had seen so many comments from people who were in the the Letby trial thread, that I assumed everyone would know who I meant. I should have been clearer.

When I saw he was also part of this trial I came here.

I think they would have been prepared for this ,. probably long moved out of Blackpool and same for John's family. Their lives will never be the same and I bet they question every interaction those two had with their kids as well.
The case has already gone viral anyway I've seen it covered in America with that awful AI image of the two with the baby
Any family members with children will have likely been referred to social care so they could consider any potential harm experienced by them and ensure there were safeguards in place in respect of their contact with them post Preston’s passing.

I think today’s reporting is the most harrowing thing I’ve ever read.
I cant even find the words for the level of evil, sadistic torture they inflicted on that beautiful, innocent and vulnerable baby.
Plus the sheer arrogance of thinking they could get away with it. His last months were filled with pain and terror and no sentence in the land is enough for them.
would anyone mind summarising todays evidence or sharing a link to where it can be read?

I follow MEN for the live reporting.

EDIT - didn’t let me post the link. But if you search Manchester Evening News and Preston Davey trial, it should give you the link to the trial updates from today and previous days.

This is exactly how I feel, the abuse was pre planned.
I see photos of his beautiful happy face, so innocent and trusting.
And then it hits me again, the disgusting things they did to him.
I feel so sick about it all, why didn’t anyone save this poor little baby :cry:
Sorry if this has been said as just catching up. But I think they definitely went through the adoption for that one sole purpose. (Especiaaly JV). I think they maybe gave themselves that year for the "prom" etc to educate themselves what to do and dangers if you know what I mean. They made sure they would be accepted first for adoption and what they should be doing etc. Sorry, this is so awful and like all of you I just wish I could have taken Preston and given him all the love and comfort ❤ .Also I remember with another c^%t
.. Brockhill.. she wanted a dirty nappy putting back on Star which i think was to cover the bruising she had inflicted. I hate these evil specimens and hope to god they all live the rest of their lives tortured every day

So what then do we reckon really happened when he died?

JVs version is he took the video aNd tHeN fOrGoT aBoUt iT 🫠
Then later he gave preston a bath and dipped away for a minute, came back to him drowning, was trying to resuscitate him when JF got home, they went straight to hospital

In reality what happened? He recorded that video of him having an "episode", then likely preston came around a bit, he confirmed he wasn't dead then ducked off and left to text JF about selling a (kayak was it?) And in the meanwhile poor preston went downhill and died alone? 😭😭😭 he found him and rang John, John drove home and they got a story together?

You know what. I hope he doesn't get a whole of life sentence. I hope he gets released in 20 years time, and a gang of vigilantes kidnap him and he meets the same fate as Preston over 4 months of hell.

“Jurors were shown videos and photographs of the child's bruises both before and after his death, along with images of his anatomy, parts of which were described as "abnormal" and caused by "forcible penetration", according to a Home Office pathologist.
Gifford told jurors: "The injuries are clinical signs of sexual abuse. More than one occasion."”


I wonder if this was the reason for so many breaks today :(
