I wonder whether the child was her daughter, doesn’t say whether she was a mother of one

Depraved people usually go for jobs/careers that will give them easy access to children.

i don’t know how to add a story but did anyone see in the DM the lady who got a 16month suspended sentence for (non life changing injuries) stabbing her ex?
She had a restraining order which he kept breaking & he went to prison. She moved house & he got out of prison & found her, broke the door door down & took her phone.
He was drunk & lunged at her with a broken bottle so she stabbed him.
How is that not self defence? She had no way to call for help or escape & had two small children (one was his) upstairs.
Apparently he called her dad & bragged he had found her and what he was going to do. He had also previously strangled her.

The Julie Morris case is awful, the fact that she was a safeguarding lead is even worse. They said that the offences didn’t involve any children at the school, but she had sent photos of pupils to him.

I hope the victim is getting all the support possible. It doesn’t say she was related to him, but the abuse started when she was 8 and they discussed it with her openly in a WhatsApp chat. It sounds like the poor child was in a vulnerable position and had no one protecting her 😢

There is a headteacher of a primary school near me. Very well respected if ‘slightly eccentric’ man, been in the job for about twenty years now wifh several outstanding inspections etc. People lie about their addresses to get their kids into the school because it’s that good. He is also the safe guarding lead there. Here is the thing though, he was my teacher at a different school thirty odd years ago and he was completely and utterly obsessed with one of my friends. He was music lead at the school and she played an instrument, so he singled her out for praise and special treatment pretty much constantly. He would stand in front of the class and tell us all how wonderful she was. She was allowed to sing in the school choir in Year 3 when it was only open to Y 5 and 6 for everyone else. We all used to joke that he fancied her and she was his girlfriend. We were bleeping eight!

It was noticed by everyone, even the other teachers noticed. One of them even commented on it and questioned why he was singling her out and he shut her down by saying it was because she was musically talented and that was that. Now I’m not saying he ever did anything, and I don’t believe he did actually cross the line. I think he possibly saw something of himself in her if that makes sense and his awkwardness meant it came over as him having a crush on her. But he was extremely inappropriate and it certainly wouldn’t happen now.

Anyway the point I’m making is safeguarding lead means duck all really. DBS‘ aren’t full proof either. Anyone can have a clean DBS it just means you haven’t been caught and charged yet.

I may be wrong here but I thought the law had changed so that you could still be done for murder if the victim died years later as a result of the original injury?
Yeah I think that's whats happened here and is why he's now in jail again

There's a 2 part (tonight and tomorrow night) 24 hours in Police Custody on tonight. Just a warning that it involves an 11 week old baby.

For the next two weeks at 10.45am, there's a program on BBC one called The Moment of Proof.

I think it's these pieces of scum! (Those words are far too nice to describe them tbh!)

Just saw this on my Facebook feed. I can’t get the link but it looks like a really interesting insight into the work of forensics

The programme has been mentioned on here before. It's been quite stop-start with a few episodes sprinkled here and there, mainly due to Covid. It's interesting but a bit slow for me - I want to understand relationships and motives, which it doesn't really go into, not pretty tedious fingerprint analysis. Still, the clue is in the title I guess 😂

I think all episodes should still all be available on BBC catch up services.

I agree with @Be More Pacific about The Real CSI show, but I do enjoy it and if you are from Birmingham there’s also the added interest of looking for places you recognise lol.

If the science side does interest you - there’s a show on iplayer called Expert Witness that goes into the work of some of the specialist teams and how they can prove/disprove who is guilty. It’s on my “to watch” list but I have read about the topic that’s covered in the first episode and it’s a bit mind blowing that by taking a sample of the pollen on a piece of evidence, they can work out a pretty exact location of where that trace evidence / contact came from.
