Sadly, the Law is Blind. However, I was not previously aware that it is also stupid and deaf. The Sexual Motivation Evidence may have been Circumstantial... But is was pretty much clear to everyone in Court that this played a major role in Tia's tragic end. It is damn certain that he didn't kill her to get hold of her Pokémon Collection!

That’s not true. It’s not inappropriate at all. Most men don’t do anything to children. And there’s no difference in leaving your children unsupervised with someone’s boyfriend or husband (if they have been with them for a while and it’s known they can be trusted). lol But I do believe we should all be careful with leaving our children alone with any man or woman.

[@Seaglassandsage]

@@michellepaul8514 I think you might want to look up statistically what the most likely scenario for a young girl to be molested is. It is overwhelmingly most probable to happen by non-blood related male that is close to the family. It is absolutely inappropriate for a 12 year old to sleep over alone with a male step grandparent. I’m really hoping you’re not the mother of young girls, because this is just complete common sense to me.

This. Women who date when they have children are often so irresponsible. They leave them together unsupervised. They let them stay the night in the same house. They introduce them to the children within weeks. They gush to the children about how great they are, how happy they are together - then they wonder why the children don't speak up. They never even have conversations with the children to teach them about consent, and that if this man ever says or does anything you don't like, tell me immediately. Etc. It is infuriating how preventable it is. But they value d-ck over their children's physical and mental health? Terrible parents.

Try to look at it with a legal lens, instead of an emotional "what a monster" lens, if you can. It was clearly explained in the video, but I will explain it to you again: It could not be proved that the murder was sexually motivated... Obvs the rape was sexually motivated, but the motivation for murder could well have been "oh shit, now i'm scared she'll tell on me, better make her disappear". There is no way to prove it based on what he is willing to admit, so legally it ca't happen.

I knew families like this growing up. Bringing in people who are creepy & several family members sleeping with same people. Kids poorly taken care of or left to their own defenses and put in the care of dangerous people. Frankly, the adults all seemed stupid & almost animalistic in a way. They weren’t mean to people or doing obvious crimes. They were just concerned with playing/drinking & had sex with random people. Then they’re shocked when something bad happened. House burned down w/one bc they had a bonfire right next to the house. Animals all died inside and child was so badly burned she was deformed. Another women dated a known pedophile. Left her daughter in his care but was shocked when it turned out he was abusing the little girl. There are people who are adults but something isn’t right in their mental capacity/ awareness. Sadly, they often have kids and the cycle continues with each generation.

The crime deserved a whole life tariff. Hazel's voyeurism and creeping into her room to "watch" her, no doubt had sexual gratification for him, or he wouldn't do it. He was waiting for the opportunity to come and when it did he took it. He had a total disregard for Tia's life and sexually objectified her, taking post mortem posed photos to fantasise over what he did. Everything points to a sexual deviant motive and solely to act out his twisted desires. Many sexual offenders who murder their victims are often viewers of violent p0rn0graphy, killing by strangulation, a slow death where the offender will "toy" with letting the victim breathe, then crushing their windpipe again, giving the offender the ultimate power over their victim. If Tia's cause of death could've been proven and DNA backed up sexual motivation, I'm sure the judge would've ordered a whole life tariff. However those memory cards provide evidence of that and Hazel would've committed further crimes of this nature had he not been arrested (as Pitchfork will now he's been paroled in his 60s, his crimes were proven to be sexually motivated, he was given a Whole life tariff, but because he did music manuscript conversion into braille his sentence was appealed and lowered) This justice system is a disgrace. The courts protect sex offenders, every psychologist says they CANNOT be rehabilitated and if paroled "young enough" they WILL REOFFEND. Its disgusting and an embarrassment to every English citizen

[@simonw1313]

Ever considered paragraphs? That's unreadable. A quick scan suggests you're over committed to the details of sexual crimes and speculating wildly about this. A full life tariff would have been applied if the judge was sure beyond reasonable doubt that the victim was killed purely for sexual satisfaction as opposed to silencing her. Whether you or I agree with that or not is besides the point. It is how a sentence is formulated under the law. Besides that the idea that he'll ever be released is slim to non-existent. He'll die in prison.

@@Aurora-do2rv - The distinction is about whether he murdered her for sexual pleasure or not. The judge couldn't honestly answer that as it's not clear if that was the motive or whether he murdered her because his sexual advances were rebuffed and he wanted to avoid being held accountable for his actions. Besides that a 38 year prison sentence at his age, added to the fact that he's unlikely to be released after just serving that 38 year tariff, means that he will very likely die in prison.

Three things struck me about this tragic story at the time: Her mother & grandmother were not astute or perceptive in the least to have allowed her to spend time unsupervised with this virtual stranger.

[@amemelia]

sadly you kind of expect the police to be useless, thousands of people reporting all sorts of problems yet nothing and no care, no reports and nothing then become surprised when the situation escalates. the amount of murder cases you can watch where you want to scream at police because they do jack shit, reports of abuse yet dont look into them, well known offenders. to have any trust in police must be a privilege because for many sadly, it's not surprising when the police continue to fail time after time when so many individuals have no hope with police. the videos were scary because usually when the murderer makes an appeal they usually say the wrong thing and slip up but he was so good if he wasnt the murderer i honestly think it sounded normal... thats the sick part
