Thanks for passing on the info. Will keep an eye out for that documentary.There is, it was setup by her parents and is called The Moira Fund. They do amazing work.
There’s a BBC documentary called “The Dark Shadow of Murder”. It profiles Moira’s mum Bea reading her diary entries from when Moira was murdered and covers their charity work.
It’s devastating and I cried pretty much the whole way through, but it’s ultimately uplifting when you think of the positives that can come after such tragedy.
Omg just read that case....that poor little girlThe murder of Sophie Hook really stayed with me, snatched from a relatives garden while camping by some local weirdo who was known to be dangerous then found on a beach.
I’m from the south side of Glasgow and can’t walk through Queens Park without thinking about Moira. Horrific crime, and to think it happened on her own doorstep.I just mentioned this on another thread but it definitely belongs here.
The 2008 murder of Moira Jones in Glasgow. This happened when I lived 4 or so streets away and it was terrifying seeing the incident command vehicle snd police presence.
Poor woman was feet away from her front door, overpowered and walked into Queens Park. There was she was raped, beaten and strangled and a park ranger found her early next morning. The horrible thing is people who were walking their dogs snd in their flats that overlooked the park testified they heard short but terrified screams. Couldn’t be sure if it was real or whatnot but sadly it’s thought to have been Moira. The piece of shit scum who did this fled back to Slovakia and they had to work to get him back to Scotland. Animal.. I always felt for Moira’s family and her long term partner - she had a bicker with him that night and went back to her own flat, then she was attacked. Sadly, I do believe if it was not her, this animal would have killed some other unfortunate woman to cross his path.
How awful, you would think your children would be safe in your own gardenThe murder of Sophie Hook really stayed with me, snatched from a relatives garden while camping by some local weirdo who was known to be dangerous then found on a beach.
I remember seeing a video shared on social media in the hours after the fire, from two women who lived on a higher floor. From what I remember they were undecided about whether to try and escape or not. You couldn't see the women but they were stood by their front door and you could see the smoke wisping under the door as well as hearing the concern in their voices. I've got a horrible feeling that they didn't make it out sadly.Grenfell
I still remember waking up to the news and hearing about the horror of people who got out in time. Then the social class injustices with the entire event too
I think a lot of it is associated with that couple that set fire to their house which I think killed all their children, the news stories happened when I was younger and I remember it gave me a bad nightmare that night, plus I lived in the flat then. But also just feels very very different.
Also the migrants in the truck in Kent. Not long ago during the trials a lot of new facts came out surrounding it and I honestly cried while reading through it all, just a horrible situation
I remember this and we were in Wales on holiday at the time. Although we were staying about half an hour away from Llandudno where she was taken. I remember asking my mum to go to the park literally a stones throw away on the same campsite, you could see our tent from the swings and my mum wouldn’t let us.

Absolutely shocking. I remember going home from my boyfriends house on the train, and just seeing the smoke from far away. It wasn't until I got home and saw the news. I cried for those poor people.I remember seeing a video shared on social media in the hours after the fire, from two women who lived on a higher floor.

I hadn’t heard about this, poor girl. What he did to her was horrific. She must have been terrifiedThe murder of Sophie Hook really stayed with me, snatched from a relatives garden while camping by some local weirdo who was known to be dangerous then found on a beach.
I always wondered if any of the Grenfell residents had any suspicion of a fire as it broke out but dismissed it . Like could they smell burning but think it was outside/ someone burning food ?I remember seeing a video shared on social media in the hours after the fire, from two women who lived on a higher floor.
