It does she’s buying made up shit to convince herself she’s a gypsy she should take her shitty wannabe gypsy wagon and take her wannabe gypsy self and rot in hellI have in fact, a very beautiful, very old Romany caravan; I was lucky enough to have spent considerable time around it. I’m definitely familiar with them.
So, with respect, I don’t think that discounts SB identifying as a traveller.
The article I read said frankie had threatened suicide first and then her dad proceeded to take his life.The photos and videos are horrific, and I think it will be a longer sentence than I originally expected, but when I look at the evidence I can’t see anything that shows for sure that she knew of any serious violence. I just think about all the messages, all the photos, all the videos, and there’s nothing about covering up serious injury, nothing about knowing about it. Just a bit at the end about fingers and marks. I understand everyone saying “how could she not know” but I also know social services believed the explanation, so if it was SBs lie, why wouldn’t FS believe it. And it wasn’t the first time.
Also really curious about the decision of her dad to take his life on her birthday. That seems really spiteful. He wasn’t a saint himself by all accounts. After I read that I thought Frankie will do the same thing. What an absolute mess.
Arthur’s Law doesn’t exist in practice.It will be interesting to see if Boris Johnson will make 'Arthur's Law' a reality with SB.
Not to turn this into a political debate, and i have my own feelings regarding BJ and politicians in general, but i hope he delivers on his promise.
Okay fair enough - but where did I state my opinion there then? Whoever posted was just banging on about 2 people saying FS should go free. That’s it. What value does that add?? What’s the point of singling out 2 people because they feel that? I’m sure this is where you debate not just throw comments out like “can’t believe people think she should walk” or something to that effect.Where did I say they are not entitled to their opinion.? The poster said Lulu was making it all up and my response was to prove they did not make it up.
Is Lulu not entitled to her opinion then if it doesn’t coincide with yours?
SB family are going to start making this into a discrimination thing, that SB got found guilty because she's a traveller.

Where did you see this
Yes, they knew fs was vulnerable and still nothing was doneThe reason I think it’s so important about FS is that until we understand what trauma looks like and the vulnerabilities it poses, this will keep happening. Things like the Freedom programme should be taught in schools imo.
me too. The case came on the lunchtime news whilst I was feeding my little one in her high chair. I stood up and just gawped at the TV. It just felt like this case I’d been following for so long was actually real. The video of her dancing came on and I just started sobbing. The clip of David too.I already have done. Think it was relief.
A few weeks ago a man was talking on FB about it and tweeted Dave Jagger asking why he hadn't covered that her dad had commited suicide.omg I didn't know thatit must have really shaken him
It was interesting but I did struggle to understand why is everyone a collier (I thought that meant a miner as in coal mining?) and a widow ?Well, Mary-kates statement was interesting wasn’t itdo these people not know when to read the room and shut the hell up
This is a good explanation on tomorrow from the lovely Dave Star Hobson trial: What Savannah Brockhill and Frankie Smith face tomorrow | Bradford Telegraph and Argus (thetelegraphandargus.co.uk)Yes that will be interesting. I can’t think of a single thing in mitigation.
I’d imagine KG respects the verdict. I’d like to hope she’s secretly relieved for the right result.
Jesus TonightOh my god
Okay. That makes more sense. Jesus. How the hell have social services not stepped in here.
I agree, lots of aggravating features to take into account for SB and lots of mitigating circumstances for FS. I also agree with what you've said all along, I think FS will get a very low sentence. Hopefully she will walk out of court tomorrow due to time already served. So pleased SB was found guilty but disappointed in FS verdict.There are so many points the judge can make for increasing Savanna’s sentence. Not least trying to take Frankie down with her. The jury must have agreed Frankie wasn’t in the room for it not to be murder or manslaughter.
Plus she knew she was out of control. She told BE she was out of control and she didn’t seek any help, she just carried on. Vile, vile woman.
It was for dehydration coz of the salt, i readI think she was taken to hospital during the trial, I didn't know that was the reason, I thought attempted self harm again.
I think so. I’m not sure if they serve half or two thirds these days. I think it’s two thirds if the sentence is over a certain length.If Frankie is given the lower charges due to her iq and the fact she was in a DV relationship, so say she got 3 years for example, as she’s done 14 months in prison already could it be that she gets the rest out on suspended sentence?
Thank youThere's a video Hollie posted and it shows the chair - it's not propped as in just holding the door open, it's wedged with two legs off the ground. The pathologist already said her injuries couldn't possibly have been caused by falling off a chair![]()
